AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

Instead they fuck us to enrich themselves and expect us to believe liars will magically keep their word and fascists will magically become reasonable representatives of the people.

I found it easier to understand Speake Mike Johnson once I realized he's not just a "flawed Christian."

He is the new Roy Cohn, another duplicitous closet case always eager to advance the agendas of genuinely awful people.

You need to hear what Chicago is doing to fight back against ICE. And then copy it.
YouTube video by Parkrose Permaculture You need to hear what Chicago is doing to fight back against ICE. And then copy it.

Mass civil resistance. Chicago knows how to do it. They're teaching Portland. And beyond. New resistance strategies emerge organically. So be open to new ideas. Be adaptive. Build a whistle brigade. Here's how:

Last I checked the GOP controls all branches of our government.

The Epstein files have turned the entire GOP in Congress into a bunch of Gym Jordans. They know the truth about a pedophile but are actively covering it up.

I'm hearing multiple reports that veterans are being denied the Covid vaccine at the VA. A friend who is a provider at the VA confirmed they aren't allowed to give vets the vaccine.

Does anyone have any more info on this? RFK Jr's vaccine denialism is going to kill our vets.

The Washington Post Fired Me โ€” But My Voice Will Not Be Silenced. I spoke out against hatred and violence in America โ€” and it cost me my job.

Some personal news:

I've been fired from the Washington Post in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk shooting.

Sad to hear that Graham Greene has died at 73 years old

Such an amazing versatile actor with over 188 credits to his name. In addition to writing, producing & soundtrack. He won a Grammy in 2000 for the best spoken word album for children for his work on Listen to the Storyteller.

RIP Graham ๐Ÿ’”

No Kings As the president escalates his authoritarian power grab, the NO KINGS non-violent movement continues to rise stronger. We are united once again to remind the world: America has No Kings and the power ...

October 18, 2025. Mark your calendar: No Kings 2.

Republicans just blocked an amendment to require the release of the Epstein files.

Wonder why.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.
