#KeepKratomLegal #BeTheChange
Pinned
Every day I wake up in pain, wake up with spasms in my face & neck due to a rare movement disorder, I deal with severe anxiety & depression. I get through my day with a little help from #Kratom tea.

It isn't a perfect solution & has risks for many that aren't fully understood.

Law enforcement will say that they don't go after people like Bundy because he is "heavily armed" and it is "dangerous." Funny how they only say this about white guys.
The Malheur National Wildlife Refuge standoff began 10 years ago today.
In April of 2025, The Tribune interviewed Ammon Bundy, now living in southern Utah as a fugitive — though law enforcement has shown little interest in arresting him.
Exclusive: Back in good LDS standing, Ammon Bundy talks about his life in Utah as a wanted man
Even with an Idaho warrant out for his arrest, Ammon Bundy said he is not overly concerned about being collared by police while he lives in Utah.

If Nicolás Maduro stands trial in the United States and gets convicted of 34 felonies, does that mean he’s qualified to be our next president now?

Just checking what the standards are these days.

Perhaps now people will stop wishcasting about the US military refusing illegal orders. That's not a thing that happens. The 100% compliance rate with using civilian boats for target practice was a bit of a tell.

Pissing off the entire world and then setting the precedent that it's cool to kidnap heads of state is certainly a choice.

If Xi Jinping invaded Taiwan right now, and toppled the president there, on what grounds would the United States object? Or have any credibility to say anything?

Fudali: This is what we call in the civil litigation world a document dump, where you hide things in plain sight by throwing out a massive volume of documents with zero context, no order, no rhyme or reason, and then force the people who actually want information to dig through it.

Remember this?

James O'Keefe got Pam Bondi on video last May saying the FBI was processing “tens of thousands of videos” of Epstein “with little kids.”

Then she told reporters “There are tens of thousands of videos of Epstein with children or child porn.”

House Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to allow a House vote on extending Affordable Care Act tax credits, even as a discharge petition is in place that should force the issue. When the credits expire, millions of Americans will see their health insurance premiums rise.

This is the type of thread that only gets written if you're unaware that the VA healthcare system already exists. Or that it provides healthcare for millions of Americans. Or that it consistently generates higher patient satisfaction numbers and better clinical outcomes than the private sector.
For all Universal HC/Single Payer/M4A advocates.

What do the biggest, expensive hospital chains do. Do they opt out and only serve the rich ?

Who in the USA gov runs the program?

R U ok with having to see a primary care doc before you can see a specialist ?

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

Amnesty International, interviewing migrant detainees, identifies use of the confinement box. There can be no denying it is a torture prison

Reporter: You said that that second strike was in full accordance with the law of armed conflict but the Navy's own manual of law of war says that specifically firing on survivors from a wrecked vessel is an example of a war crime that's forbidden under U.S. Law and the law of armed conflict…

Admiral Bradley can take the hit for an administration that doesn't give two shits about him or the military in general, or he can drop his retirement papers and out every single political appointee involved. We'll soon see what kind of officer and leader he is.
REPORTER: Does the administration deny that that second strike happened, or did it happen and the administration denies that Hegseth gave the order?

LEAVITT: The latter. Secretary Hegseth authorized Admiral Bradley to conduct these kinetic strikes. He worked well within his authority and the law.

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.
