They are torturing and killing people in our concentration camps, and I wish more people were actively bothered by that

The reason women don't come forward when sexually assaulted, is that in this country, a rapist can become president.

Reminder that the US military budget is larger than the military spending of the next nine largest countries combined.

Over half goes to private defense contractors.

This is the military-industrial complex Eisenhower warned of β€” on steroids.

Hillary Clinton has bigger balls than James Comer could ever dream of having.

She ran circles around him, his ragtag bunch of dimwits, and did it with a smile on her face.

She wanted the media at her deposition.

He didn’t.

Now we know why.

Where are we? A president clearly in mental decline, a compliant Congress afraid to exercise there oversight responsibilities when the useful idiot starts a war. When I served, it never occurred to me that I would ever have to question an order.

I’m arguing that economic justice is not β€œun-American.”
John Adams defined the purpose of government as ease, comfort, and security.
Thomas Paine argued that extreme wealth owes a debt back to society.
This account is about reclaiming American identity from oligarchy β€” using the Founders’ own words.

I spend enough time w/ countless parents to know the majority love their children & only want to feed & house them, keep them safe from gun violence, believe in health care/vaccinations & want the best public schools! Too many don’t make a livable wage. youtu.be/-y7-m2LppTo?... go.bsky.app/Rq8aZDE

Quote from Washington Times editorial board

"[Radical liberals] don't realize that, when they express contempt for the man who holds the country's highest office, they reveal their contempt for the Americans who put him there."

It’s terrifying how far above the law cops think they are. And they’re pushing Congress hard for a shield law that makes their impunity legal.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.

Reminder that Congress has the power to stop this.

To be clear, drunkard rapist Fox Propagandist Pete Hegseth isn’t a General or a Commander or anyone militarily distinguished or experienced, he’s a trashy vulgar war criminal murderer who was appointed by a known draft dodging coward. He and his boss should be in a jail cell.
