In honour of Country legend Zach Bryan condemning ICE live on stage here is a song of his that I really like.

I don't know music, but I know lyrics, and these are pretty good.

His song "Something in the Orange" is one of my favorite songs of all time. And this confirms that I am right to be a fan of his.

Well, turns out that if you tell your entire country that greed and selfishness are signs of intelligence you inevitably end up with an elite who are dumb as hell and only care about themselves.

Imagine my surprise.

I mean...you'll have to imagine it.

Because it doesn't exist.

Yup. One of the reasons so many Americans think crime is getting worse is because it is:

In the "red" states.

See, the Republicans' economic policies are terrible, and make poverty worse.

And poverty is the biggest driver of crime.

Always.

Fun fact: the Netherlands, where I live, also has privatized healthcare.

And it works a lot better than the American healthcare system because there are strong regulations to stop the healthcare providers from becoming too evil.

Plus if they do there is a government option anyone can take instead.

Gavin Newsom.

Credit where it's due. This is a very good thing.

Newsom is a politician. Like the rest of them his words are meaningless.

Only his actions matter.

And this action is very important.

Once again: It is true that both the Left and the Right engage in political violence.

But data from the FBI shows that right-wingers commit 5 times as much political violence as people on the left.

...which is exactly why Trump demanded that the data be removed.

It contradicts the narrative.

And Kushner said, last year, at a talk at Harvard, that the plan for Gaza was to turn it into a property development.

This has been Trump and Netanyahu's plan for Gaza the whole time. Before he even re-entered office.

Don't take my word for it: fact check me.

The video is on YouTube.

I'm 100% with you.

As dysfunctional as the two-party system is the most viable path towards positive change is voting for the most progressive candidates, in every election, and signalling to them that their progressive ideas are why you support them.

True, but we had nothing to determine her stance on the genocide from other than the Dems barring Palestinian activists from addressing the DNC.

Which sent a very clear message, to everyone.

The Dems are not as bad as Trump.
They're better on every issue.

But that does mean voting for a candidate who supports genocide because that vote would be better for the voter.

So the voter ends up supporting genocide because it is in their own selfish interests to do so.

And it's not the voters' fault: they are only being given bad options.

Image shows the 14 people who have accepted the largest amount of bribe money from the state of Israel. Notable people who have been bought by Israel include Chuck Schumer, Mitch McConnell, Hakeem Jeffries, Ted Cruz, Dick Durbin, and Lindsey Graham. There is of course also Donald Trump. Israel supports Trump, even though they know he wants to be a dictator, because he supports their genocide, and Netanyahu cares a lot more about his land grab than he does about America.

And similar good luck will be needed in the mid-terms by Democrats who still take bribe money from Israel, to support that country's genocide.

Israel spent a fortune getting Trump elected even though they know he wants to be a dictator.

Netanyahu is not an American ally, he is an American enemy.

Let's assume that Chuck Schumer is a politician with decades of experience in effective messaging.

Why is he screwing this up? Why is Chuck Schumer phoning it in?

I think it's 'cause both he and Trump support Israel's genocide.

They're actually on the same team.
