hey just a question: which president kept giving Israel unlimited weapons to commit mass genocide, and kept defending it on the campaign trail so hard that it cost them the election. trying to remember who that was but I recently was hit on the head by an anvil

The bombing of Iran, the starving of Cuba, the waging of genocide in Palestine. It's time to let go of the idea the role of the US is to enforce a rules-based order, and instead recognize the incredible harm our country unleashes around the world, and take meaningful action to reduce it.

Dilley was built in 2014 with federal funds. There were still kids in cages on Jan 20 2021. Everyone cared in 2020, but then they seemed to forget. I hope they don’t forget again!

Lurie might legit be the worst mayor we’ve had in like 50+ years. I can’t think of a worse one.

Great band ! We played with em in Vancouver. Glasgow is gonna love em !

It’s been hard to live in SF, ground zero for almost every terrible thing techno-fascist capitalists are unleashing on the world. But this week teachers, and thousands of families and working people said ENOUGH. This is a win for everyone. They scared the shit out of power, ya’ll.

WUT rule !!

East bay, we've got a super fun show happening at the Little Hill Lounge in El Cerrito on Saturday night. Oakland Weekender presenting Tony Jay (sick solo set) and the mysterious Peppercorns, featuring what we think you'll find to be some familiar faces. KALX's Poindexter on the decks. 8pm, and FREE

I promise you they don’t like it either.

People gotta fuckin stop doin this. I won't vote for Gavin Newsom. Gavin Newsom will lose. I'm saying it now so y'all have time to listen, tho you never do. But nah I ain't voting for diet fascism just because he has a D. Candidates have to do what we want to get elected, there's no fealty here.

“Lurie’s ability to use private cash on political and communications consultants is allowed under local laws as long as operatives do not lobby the mayor” 😐

This is a major scandal !!!

None of these billionaire oligarchs fear Trump. If anything they see him as their servant. Bezos wants to kill the Post because he doesn’t believe he should be governed at all. Crushing journalism is one of many things he’s doing to advance that goal.

Maj7 is the “Paul Kelly” chord and also a big “Sundays” chord.

Love a maj7 chord !

Everybody has it backwards.

Billionaires aren’t buying up these institutions to make money. They’re buying them to kill them. Same as the oligarchs destroying government and social programs and things like weather forecasting and regulatory bodies.

They’re creating a world they control completely

The Dilley TX family concentration camp was built in 2014 by ICE, when Obama was president, and continually funded through dem and republican admins. Death by preventable disease is an inevitable and even desired outcome of concentration camps. We CANNOT tolerate any “return to normal” post-Trump.

Oh that’s a lovely flyer and Nevada city is really nice this time of year. If you like the cold.

During WWII there were some factories in occupied Europe and the workers altered the oil dipsticks so the trucks would show full but always be low on oil so their engines would seize and fail after just enough miles that the Nazi scum would be totally f’ed.

@livemusicaficionado.com Pains added another date 2/19. Might still be tix avail for that.
