Business people have always wanted full control of the US. But, it took Trump and his angry horde of ignorant haters to get it done. Now, with their clown dictator installed, they will inflict pain and suffering on working people in America.

A video summary of all the spontaneous protests that erupted across Europe last night after Israel’s illegal attack on the flotilla. An extraordinary outpouring of support.

Yes, it’s time, we spent 10 years trying to understand and find common ground, that’s enough 🙏🏼
Disinvite them from the tailgate. Do not go to the baby shower. Call out their bullshit on Facebook. Do not just purse your lips and nod politely.
Ostracize the living shit out of them. Leave their church potluck casserole untouched. These people are extremely vulnerable to social shame.

I can’t tell you exactly how I know but after sixty years in and around politics I’ve developed a sixth sense, and my sixth sense tells me the tide is now turning on Trump.

Keep standing up to Trump’s ongoing attacks on the First Amendment. Keep pressuring media outlets and corporations to protect the free press. Collectively, WE have power. Giving in to tyranny only invites more of it.

This is my favorite response to @governor.ca.gov heartfelt thread 🙏🏼
Which work? Calling for gay people to be stoned to death? Blaming airplane crashes on black pilots? Anti-vax bullshit? Election denialism? Pushing Great Replacement Theory?
Kirk’s murder is awful and ominous for this country. But no, we don’t need to honor him or “continue his work.”
