Read a book.

Read another book.

And then read some more.

Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

February 21: The Epstein client list is on Pam Bondi's desk ready to be reviewed
July 7: The Epstein client list does not exist and the case is closed
July 12: There is an Epstein file but it's a fake written by Obama, Crooked Hillary, Comey, and Brennan

Not to be a lib, but you guys, I donโ€™t think Kamala Harris would be selling merch for the tents surrounded by alligators being used as a concentration camp.

Historians call it โ€œwillful ignoranceโ€ when Germans said โ€œwe didnโ€™t knowโ€ as their neighbors disappeared.

But Americans do know.
About the raids.
The camps.
The mass deportations.

Silence now isnโ€™t ignorance.
Itโ€™s complicity.

Maybe itโ€™ll be better than their human โ€œcustomer experienceโ€ considering they asked my dad for my momโ€™s death certificate in order to cancel her phone line, even though it was entirely in my dadโ€™s name. ๐Ÿคฌ #fuckverizon

Netanyahu has spent the better part of two decades trying to strong arm the United States into an unprovoked war against Iran and finally found a president stupid enough to do it for him. Unbelievable.

Twenty years ago the Republican party stood for huge tax cuts for the rich and wars of choice in the middle east, but then Donald Trump totally remade the party and realigned American poltiics, and now the Republica party stands for...huge tax cuts for the rich and wars of choice in the middle east.

Someone go ahead and tell me again why and how Kamala Harris would have been worse than what we're experiencing now. Go on.

So much of whatโ€™s happening is a direct consequence of Donald Trump's โ€œAmerica First" foreign policy. His reckless unilateralism, constant quarrels with allies, and systematic dismantling of our security apparatus have left the U.S. ill-equipped to lead when global peace hangs in the balance.

and Trump is staging a fucking parade and a bully action in LA when there is a war breaking out in the Middle East. How insanely irresponsible and dangerous he is.

There are 7,591 words in the U.S. Constitution.

Not one is "bible", "Jesus", "Judeo", "Christian" or "God".

Separation of church and state guarantees ALL Americans the right to practice ANY religion. Or none.

Which part of "religious freedom" is not as clear as a church bell?

You're seeing America kamikaze itself into a brick wall.

It didn't have to be this way.

But greed and racism, our two sins, will be our downfall.

Too many people still with their hands in the sand.
