I think Trump pulls a Putin and invades Iran right after the #Olympics.

The Republican position now appears to be that you have a constitutional right to openly carry a gun in public, unless you do so while expressing a view that the government dislikes, in which case the secret police can shoot you to death on the spot.
Minneapolis police chief Brian O'Hara says that the victim was a 37-year-old white man and US citizen with no criminal record and that he was a legally permitted gun owner.

Happy MLK Day to all empathetic, historically aware, defenders of freedom, believers of equal rights, peaceful protesters, good troublers, and down right fine people of any race, gender, religion, or ancestral origin who celebrate.

Non-protesting dad just trying to hustle his kids, as young as 6mo, out of the neighborhood. ICE threw a flash-bang INTO HIS car, all 6 kids in the hospital now.

If anyone wondered how things turn against occupying armies there's a case study playing out in front of you.

Fucking clown show…
Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.

Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

Some behavior, beliefs, and tattoos are immediately disqualifying.

I also think it’s important to remember that we ALL have made poor decisions.

We ALL have had opinions about things that have shifted.

We grow. We learn. We, hopefully, educate ourselves.

I fucking hate Nazis; but verify.

Not voting wasn’t a sound electoral strategy for anyone who liked their freedom.

There were 2 choices:

On the left, some would say, was a kick to the gut.

On the right, was a long walk off a short pier over an active volcano pit full of liquid, hot mag[m]a.

Only one was survivable.

This is what the appeasers and capitulators don't seem to get (or perhaps willfully deny): You're not going along with one awful thing, you're setting the baseline for the next awful thing, and the expectation that you'll acquiesce to that. Which forms a new baseline...

Call it out and say no.
Once Donald Trump gets the citizens of this nation comfortable with the current atrocities committed under the color of law – what comes next?

Billy Preston added so much more than his skills as a musician, and the soul he brought to his music.

The Beatles were trying to impress him, and I think that made them try a little harder.

Isn’t it a Pity at the Concert for George gives me goosebumps…

My MAGA brother posted about Mayor Pete on Facebook calling him “incompetent” and “unintelligent.”

My wife responded, asking how a person who speaks 8 languages and served in military intelligence could be either, and asked why it mattered since he’s not currently in government.

He blocked her.

I genuinely can’t believe how stupid our country is — especially since we have every history book ever written and the ability to research ANYTHING at our fingertips.

Sure, some of it is education, some is algorithm, a lot is Fox Noose. But, the inability to think, consider, or question is gross.

My life, identity, and self-worth would not implode if the existence of God was proven.

If it was proven it *didn’t* exist, can you imagine the fallout.
