For those who have forgotten the past 40 years:

Tax cuts for the rich
...don’t trickle down

Boosting military spending
...doesn’t bring peace

Slashing regulations
...doesn’t create jobs

Folks, we’ve seen this all before.

Former President Joe Biden praising both Barack Obama and Jesse Jackson gives me life.

I miss Joe.

Reverend Jesse Jackson called on each of us to be heralds of change, to be messengers of hope; to step forward and say “Send me” wherever we have a chance to make an impact.

How fortunate we were that Jesse Jackson answered that call. What a great debt we owe to him.

All of our living presidents who still have a sense of decency gathered to honor Rev. Jesse Jackson.

Respect recognizes respect.

The reason we have “stupid rules of engagement” is to make sure we don’t bomb elementary schools.

“Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed...This is not a way of life...it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron.”

The U.S. war on Iran is now estimated to cost $1 billion per day. Meanwhile Americans are told there’s no money for healthcare, hospitals, or basic social programs.

So far the war in Iran has cost an estimated $5.5 billion.

That's roughly $1 billion per day.

$41,666,667 per hour.

$11,574 per second.

People do not want this.

They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

We need to pass a House rule or law that requires them to work a certain number of days to get paid. Since Mike Johnson took over these people hardly ever work. When they finally come back after weeks off they work 2 days and he sends them home for 2 more weeks. It’s ridiculous.

I need to remind people. The midterms have never been so important.

Don't let people use scare tactics or make you think it won't happen.

also if voting didn't matter gerrymandering wouldn't exist.

They cut Meals on Wheels for seniors, doctors for the VA, and food for American children - but send billions of taxpayer dollars to the Middle East for an unnecessary war of choice.

For years on my old blog I published the names of servicemembers who died in Iraq & Afghanistan. No other outlets were.

These are the first 4 Americans to die in the Iran War.
Capt. Cody A. Khork, 35
Sgt. 1st Class Noah L. Tietjens, 42
Sgt. 1st Class Nicole M. Amor, 39
Sgt. Declan J. Coady, 20

How come “How are you going to pay for it?” is never asked about endless war?

"We will measure our success not only by the battles we win but also by the wars that we end – and perhaps most importantly, the wars we never get into." — Donald Trump, Inaugural Address, January 2025.

"[Trump] authorized more individual air strikes in 2025 than Biden did in four years."

Just a reminder that not everyone in the military is a bootlicking asshole. Many are kids with no other options and others were born into families that expect the kids to join. Don’t be an asshole and cheer on their deaths.

No deaths in this war are acceptable.

Been wrestling with this one for a while now, and finally completed it this weekend. I am not a religious person, more of an apatheist, but every painter takes a stab at a madonna once right? Even accidentally? Its a tradition.

The FBI being on high alert for terrorist actions is important right now.

Too bad they fired and gutted their counterterrorism capacity

People do what you pay them to do.
You pay corporate executives to make stock prices go up, not to make better products.
You pay politicians to get re-elected, not to govern well.
You pay reporters to get a bigger audience, not to tell the truth.
And so forth.
Be aware of what you pay people to do
