America HATES its children. HATES them. We let them get slaughtered at schools, stores, and birthday parties. We think educating them wastes money that could go to deserving billionaires, instead of being an investment in our future. Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds even refused funds to FEED children. HATES
Today, local authorities confirmed the victims of the Stockton shooting were just 8, 9, 14, and 21 years old — and that the attack was likely targeted. Our hearts break for their families and the entire Stockton community.

What do you mean "there's a very high probability?"

We know the names of the pardoned insurrectionists. Is he on the list or not? 🤷‍♂️

If you haven't done due diligence before making an unsubstantiated claim, then STFU. Stop spreading innuendo and misinformation.

Bet 👇 thinks he's "resisting."
There's a very high probability that the murderous ICE-hole, that killed an unarmed American woman, is a pardoned Jan 6th Insurrectionist POS. Like Charlie Kirkoff used to say, "Prove Me Wrong." So, which Domestic Terror group did the chicken shit, homicidal, psycho, lunatic belong to?

NEW: Iran’s capital, Tehran, is now BURNING

110 cities across Iran have seen unrest and protests against the ruling regime in the last 12 days

The only thing more remarkable than the scale of this revolution is the negligence of mainstream media in covering it.

Scenes below in Tehran tonight.

I’m with Victoria. An honest assessment tells us that we have only tapped the brakes on the juggernaut that is the Trump fascist billionaire pedophile agenda. It’s not enough to post on social media and attend a protest for a couple hours once a quarter. We need to occupy America until they’re gone.
Honestly, have we achieved anything tangible with marches, protests, letters and call to congress? Things have only gotten worse. Bringing the country to its knees would be the nonviolent revolution we need right now.

Praying for justice and peace for the people of Iran.
The regime has shut down the internet nationwide and disabled phone lines, cutting communications across the country. Protester Telegram channels are dead. Looks like a total blackout.

So You Want to Own Greenland?: Lessons from the Vikings to Trump
Why have foreigners over the centuries kept wanting to own Greenland? The fascinating, calamitous story of the many who’ve tried . . . and uniformly failed . . .An indispensable guide to Greenland—why it matters, and how it could become the next global flashpoint.Ever since its discovery Greenland has been a frontier for human exploration, empire and geostrategic competition. This book delves into that rich history and complex politics, revealing how a country of just 56,000 inhabitants, 80% of which is above the Arctic Circle, has shaped—and been shaped by—the world.Elizabeth Buchanan’s short history begins with Erik the Red and the Vikings, Greenland’s first colonizers—whose settlement of over 2,000 people mysteriously disappeared. She explores the island’s evolution from a Danish possession into an autonomous territory, and its role in the World War II, when soldiers from the U.S. helped Greenland’s 15-man army, operating on dogsleds, capture Nazis trying to set up secret, remote surveillance outposts. She details how Greenland became a strategic hot spot in the Cold War arms race between the U.S. and Russia — when the U.S. built a nuclear-powered base under the Greenland icesheet, and President Kennedy devised Project Iceworm, a plan to deploy 600 ballistic ice-hidden missiles there.Finally, she dissects Greenland’s position today at the center of a new “great game,” featuring Cold War belligerents the U.S. and Russia and now China, and the mounting domestic pressures for independence—not to mention President Trump’s agenda to acquire the landmass.Buchanan poses provocative yet compelling scenarios for Greenland’s future, providing an essential read for anyone curious about this frozen frontier and its place on the world stage.

Hypocrisy is the tribute vice pays to virtue when people are working from shared values. MAGA has a totally different worldview which prizes domination of the out-group as its highest good.

They’re fascists.
