Iโ€™ve been trying to tell everyone whatโ€™s coming, but apparently weโ€™re ok with it, as there still has not been a General Strike or an occupation of millions of us in DC.
I am all for peaceful protests, but sorry to inform that itโ€™s not enough to keep people safe or alive under this Reich.

Harrison Ford Slams Donald Trumpโ€™s โ€œIgnoranceโ€ About Climate Change: โ€œEverything He Says Is a Lieโ€ "I donโ€™t know of a greater criminal in history," the actor said about Trump when reflecting on his climate change policies.

โ€œThe ignorance, the hubris, the lies, the perfidy. He knows better, but heโ€™s an instrument of the status quo and heโ€™s making money, hand over fist, while the world goes to hell in a hand basket. Itโ€™s unbelievable. I donโ€™t know of a greater criminal in history.โ€-Ford

How Many Times Must This Be Said?!?

Let me share a little secret: America doesn't have $38 trillion in debt because Americans get Social Security and Medicare. It's because billionaires and millionaires aren't paying their fair share in taxes. It's that simple.

Nancy Mace Curses, Berates Confused Cops in Airport Meltdown: Police Report At an airport in South Carolina on Thursday, US representative Nancy Mace called police officers โ€œfucking incompetentโ€ and berated them repeatedly, according to an incident report.

Good Lord, the details in this police report.

Nancy Mace is nasty, rude, entitled and flat-out batsh*t crazy.

An estimated 15.7 million workers use SNAP. Itโ€™s a lifeline for those in low-wage jobs.

Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker.

Donโ€™t be angry at workers for using food stamps.

Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

In term 1, Trump
-bombed a govt the US hadn't before (Syria)
-killed a foreign military commander for the first time since WWII (Soleimani)
-changed rules of engagement to reduce avoidance of civilian casualties
-pardoned and publicly celebrated convicted war criminals
-destabilized situations
-more

U.S. poised to strike military targets in Venezuela in escalation against Maduro regime The Trump Administration has made the decision to attack military installations inside Venezuela and the strikes could come at any moment, sources with knowledge of the situation told the Miami Herald...

Of all the dumb Trump apologetics, sanewashing, and support for a fantasy version that diverges from the real thing, "no new wars" might be the single dumbest.
He was already president! To know it's BS, just look at what he repeatedly says and already did.
And yet, some really wanted to believe it.

I know Adam Kinzinger @adamkinzinger.substack.com doesn't want kudos. He is too humble for that.

But he must know, (even before I watched "The Last Republican), I consider him what in Judaism we call a "Tzadik".

A righteous person, a person of integrity & kindness.

Thank you, Adam. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผโค๏ธ

Just in case there was ANY doubt as to whether or not Republicans could have ended the shutdown any time by making a targeted filibuster carve out.

Translation: TRUMP AND REPUBLICANS HOPED THAT THE SHUTDOWN WOULD HURT PEOPLE BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT THEY COULD BLAME IT ON DEMOCRATS
