I like a good conversation on trying to improve the world, we are only here for a short while,why take time to bicker? wars solve nothing, they only create hatred and division, i despise selfish greedy people,greed is an illness.capitalism is evil.

Breaking on MS NOW:

@alivitali.bsky.social reports the Hillary Clinton deposition has resumed, but that Clinton is asking press be allowed into the room for the rest of the deposition.

Comer said NO โ€” despite Lauren Boebert taking photos of Clinton and giving them to a far-right activist.

โ€˜They can't lose a single voteโ€™: Republicans say a razor-thin majority has made them โ€˜untouchableโ€™ A recent scandal involving Rep. Tony Gonzales, R-Texas, is testing a blunt dynamic with House Republicans: They can get away with just about anything โ€” and leaders wonโ€™t call on them to resign.

In recent days, texts have surfaced that appear to show Rep. Tony Gonzales, R-Texas, pressuring one of his employees into a sexual relationship. Months later, that employee died by suicide.

This fucking pig should resign and be jailed.

Then, Mandelson also sent Epstein confirmation that there would be a โ‚ฌ500bn Eurozone bailout hours before it was announced. ๐Ÿšจ

The European Commission has requested that the EUโ€™s anti-fraud agency investigate Mandelsonโ€™s actions while in Brussels as the British commissioner for trade 2004 and 2008.

Post image Amanirenas was a Kandake (queen-regnant) of the ancient Kingdom of Kush who ruled from about 40 BCE to 10 BCE. She is celebrated as one of Africaโ€™s great warrior monarchs for leading her Nubian armies against Roman forces advancing south from newly annexed Egypt. Her leadership preserved the sovereignty of Kush and became emblematic of female authority in ancient Nubia. Amanirenasโ€™s reign coincided with Augustus Caesarโ€™s expansion after the fall of Cleopatra VII and Mark Antony. When Roman governors pushed south into Nubia, Amanirenas mobilized as many as 30 000 troops to resist.
In 25 BCE, Roman prefect Gaius Petronius invaded Nubia and briefly occupying Napata, but Amanirenas regrouped and negotiated a truce. The Treaty of Samos (around 21 BCE) ended the conflict on favorable terms: Rome withdrew from much of Lower Nubia and remitted tribute obligations. The peace endured for nearly three centuries.

Oz, on behalf of the Trump regime, publicly refuses to do their job & are intentionally lying about who is responsible for investigating Medicare/Medicaid fraud. It is HHS IG, FBI, MFCU, CMS & DOJ. Complaints come through OIG. All are federal agencies. All let fraud happen under Trump when reported

The only truth that emerged from the chamber last night.

Rep. Al Green was thrown out of the SOTU for holding this sign, which, to me, seems more like a reward than a punishment.

The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M to detain 4k people. Of those- only 30 were accused of violent crimes.

$9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst".

The State of our Union is that we have a convicted felon and pedophile in the White House, protecting other rich & powerful pedophiles while strangling the Constitution and orchestrating the largest transfer of wealth to the ruling class in American history.

The End.
