everything was hunky-dory until 1953. that’s when shit truly went sideways, after Mossadegh broke the eleventh commandment — Thou Shalt Not Fuck With Big Oil — by nationalizing Iran’s oil industry. our CIA and Britain’s MI6 got themselves worked into a Big Mad over this, and engineered a coup that overthrew Mossadegh and turned Iran back into a monarchy, restoring Reza Pahlavi as the Shah. the thing about the Shah of Iran is that he was a repressive piece of shit who was hated by his people, and his fuckery led to the Iranian Revolution of 1979 — and that’s how Iran went from being a repressive monarchy to being a repressive theocracy. meet the new boss, yadda yadda. that’s why we’re in this mess right now — because we couldn’t leave well enough alone 73 years ago.

did you know Iran used to be a western-style democracy, with an elected prime minister? but then one day in 1953, the CIA ousted him in a coup, and restored the repressive and corrupt Shah to power — that's REALLY how this mess all got started. you can read all about it in my post: bit.ly/4lfWn7c

The Gámez-Cuéllar family has been released from Dilley! We just picked them up.

Hey MAGA, after Trump consolidates his power to the extent that most citizens are afraid to cross him, even at the local level, he'll send ICE out to collect your guns. No dictator allows an armed citizenry for long. Trump certainly doesn't care about the Constitution, or you for that matter.

Don’t let Fox get away with it this time. Spread the word.

Fox & Friends Weekend replaced footage of Trump attending yesterday’s dignified transfer with a clip from 2025.

They clearly didn’t want their audience to see him disrespecting fallen soldiers wearing a baseball cap.

Key Details of 13-Year-Old Trump Accuser’s Accounts Are Verified The newly corroborated details suggest the woman was truthful about numerous aspects of her life.

There is apparently credible evidence that the president of the United States is a pedophile. The comforting phrase “accused him without evidence” no longer fits this situation, and journalists must resort to the more perfunctory “hasn’t been formally charged.” www.thedailybeast.com/key-details-...

Thought I would have gotten used to it by now, but I’m still grappling with the realization of just how stupid the men running this country are.

Bessie Coleman was denied admission to American flight schools because she was Black and a woman.

So she went to France.

In 1921 she became the first Black woman in the world to earn an international pilot’s license.

She refused to stay grounded.

4 Things Billionaires Are Doing With Their Money to Influence Elections

"The top 1% now control $56 trillion in assets, more than the gross domestic product of the United States and China combined. They are using it to elect politicians who will advance their views of what America ought to be."

They certainly don't care about you or I.

Donald Trump wears lifts. Markwayne Mullin stands on a platform.

We've turned the keys of the kingdom over to men overcompensating for their insecurities.

Hundreds of thousands of people are already dead because of the abrupt cuts to USAID.

Millions more will die in the coming years.

It is an absolute catastrophe that the media is practically ignoring.

We know exactly who is responsible for this massive loss of life
