Charlie Kirk is dead. One less Nazi in the world. I just wish he'd been publicly humiliated not publicly executed.

The Big Ugly Bill (BUG) undermines the idea that Americans look out for each other. We are a nation of selfish fools.

Stunning how media has turned passage of the Abominable Bill into a will they-or-won't they romcom with a July 4th deadline for Cinderella to kiss the prince, rather than a situation in which multiple members of Congress say they're terrified they or their families will be killed if they cross Trump

There are only three political positions in America today
1) I like the fascism
2) I'll acquiesce to the fascism (reasons for this one vary: cowardice, access, denial, misguidedly thinking that acquiescence is savvy, etc)
3) I oppose the fascism
The rest is details

Fascism is here. It's been here since the beginning. The only thing the fascists needed was a puppet and figurehead. Reagan was supposed to be The Guy. Turns out The Guy is just a scary Taco.

If we had universal healthcare, my wife would have her surgery and chemotherapy without having to wait for Medicaid to kick in. She wouldn't have to work. Instead, she could focus on her treatments. Allied Solutions fucked her over. They represent the Capitalist enemy.

The company that ruined my wife's life and hastened her death is Allied Solutions out of Carmel, IN. It'd be a shame if word got out on social media that they sent a woman to her death by firing her despite knowing she had Stage IV cancer and was undergoing chemotherapy and had a surgery planned.

The news depresses me and makes me anxious. My wife is dying of cancer because she was fired and her health insurance was terminated. We just cashed out our life savings. This is reality. Life isn't a game. It's hard. It's brutal. It's real.

The company who fired my wife is Allied Solutions from Carmel, IN. They deserve special attention for being inhumane and sociopathic. If my wife dies because she can't get care, I will sue the fuck out of them. Corporate America sucks the life out of everyone. #americasucks #capitalismsucks

I wish I could use my masters in public relations to destroy the company and person who fired my wife. What kind of sociopath fires a woman with Stage IV cancer? My wife HAD 2-3 years to live. Now? Maybe not a year bc US health insurance sucks ass.

This is oligarchy. This is obscene.
While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%.
End this oligarchy.

My wife lost her job today at Allied Solutions. She has Stage IV cancer. They knew it and still fired her. She now needs Medicaid to survive and the GOP wants her to die. I hate this country and the impersonal companies that run it.

Anyone else notice that ICE isn't going into Gangland, LA? They're not going into the darker areas of the San Fernando Valley, East LA, or even Echo Park. They're cowards. What are they scared of?

Der US-Präsident spielt gern den starken Mann. Dabei ist er es, der auf dem Schulhof der Weltpolitik von den bösen Jungs herumgeschubst wird.

Trump plays at being a strongman. But he's being mocked on the world's stage. But he, like Berlusconi, made bedfellows with Putin. And, also like the former Italian strongman, Trump knows how to bend the media to connect with his base. But what happens when his base learns he's actually a coward?
