And many more imbeciles didn’t vote because the eggs were too expensive. This election was won by imbeciles who elected another imbecile but cruel.
Every news is more terrifying than the previous. We are in a huge mess.
Sorry for the rant. I am depressed and angry. 😡

It’s because imbeciles didn’t vote for Kamala Harris in protest for the massacre in Gaza (they voted Democrat all the way in the ballot but not for the Presidency). Other imbeciles did the same to protest because they wanted more help for Israel.

IT'S THE MOST ASTONISHINGLY, OPENLY CORRUPT ADMINISTRATION IN U.S. HISTORY
THEY AREN'T EVEN TRYING TO HIDE IT. IT'S A DEGREE OF CORRUPTION THAT COULD DESTABILIZE THE
WHOLE COUNTRY, THE WHOLE WORLD.

Also yes project 2025 was always the plan.

Trump is taking credit for the ceasefire as if he’s already president. To be fair, millions of Americans have been drinking as if he’s already president.

I did, in fact, say this, and it is, unfortunately, in fact, true

Jen Rubin leaves The Washington Post to join Norm Eisen in starting a new media publication and venture called "The Contrarian."

Donald Trump would have been convicted over 2020 election, says special counsel Report by Jack Smith says evidence ‘was sufficient to obtain and sustain a conviction’ had Trump not won re-election in 2024

Great letter in today's Guardian. What sort of free speech is prevented by factchecking, Zuck?

Jimmy Carter Deserved Better. So Do We. An underreported chapter from Carter’s career.

Al lived his all life in a brace with iron sticks going from his chin to his limbs. He was courageous, he studied and became a wonderful doctor with an admirable empathy.
The external signs are still very visible.

Don't let RFK Jr ban the vaccine.
My cousin Al had polio when I was 7 and he was 3. It was a terrifying event, even if at that young age I couldn't grab the immensity of this tragedy. Al's two younger siblings were displaced, U with us and L, too young to walk, with aunt Maria.

Nothing will change. Neither in US nor in the rest of the world.
The rich and powerful will be even richer and more powerful. The poor and the vulnerable will become even poorer and more vulnerable.
I pity myself and my stupid dream of leaving the world a better place.

Do we need a murder to reflect on ‘legal’ abuses and murders protected by law?
De need a massacre to reflect on arms?
Do we need a genocide to reflect on wars?
