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.

It's all hands on deck. I am shamelessly asking, one more time, for reposts and signal boost as this bird glides toward a landing in a few hours. It's gonna be a beautiful book, and there aren't going to be very many available afterwards!

"Person impeached for insurrection sends billions to Argentina during US gov't shutdown" and "Felon convicted of fraud pardons felon convicted of fraud" and "Long-time Epstein associate posts video depicting himself as a king dumping diarrhea on Americans from a fighter jet" are factual statements

A Republican Trump supporter pleads guilty to child sex abuse charges. Think it’s Epstein? Think again.

MAGA is avoiding talking about it, but I'm covering the criminal case of TX megachurch pastor, Robert Morris, & why Republicans are the biggest hypocrites of them all.

Let's enjoy a story time til we hear from Alaska.

This story is about a big ugly old orange monster.

The monster tries to blame King Barack for being in the evil wizard's spell book.

Today would be a great day to drop the entire #EpsteinFiles

Trump is involuntarily transferring people from FEMA to ICE.

This is during hurricane season!

ICE is having trouble hiring people despite the $50k bonuses, and student debt forgiveness!

Sadly appropriate for our time.
The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe.

Will we listen to his words today?

All the truth -
If you watch only one video today, let it be this one.

Watch NYU Stern School of Business Professor Scott Galloway’s outstanding commentary on what prosperity and wealth should mean in America.

His words could not be more on point and timely.

Please pass it on.

I hate agreeing with this - but this feels like where we are.
They are not here to govern or help us, they’re here to rob us blind & leave us for dead

If you’re an ICE agent or other local authority committing these unwarranted abductions, fuck you, you’re not just doing your job, you’re failing a moral test. May you never sleep peacefully again
One notable arrest over the weekend left two children unattended after a man was taken from a gas station by what appeared to be a group of ICE agents.

When a nation’s leaders exhibit staggering ignorance and lack of basic decorum, it is not merely their reputation that suffers, but the dignity of the entire country that collapses under the weight of their mediocrity.
