Love is love. Empathy is the essence of humanity. Fascism must be stopped at all costs using any and all available methods. The Billionaire class is the enemy of freedom.
It seems likely the reason so many of convicted felon and child rapist Taco Trump's cabinet members, including the Man-baby in Chief himself, are so loyal to Putin is because Putin has better than the Epstein Files, Putin likely has the original videos of powerful people raping children.

Is Tulsi Gabbard a Russian asset? We know the French gave fake high level classified information regarding Ukraine to the US and that Russia then received that information. I assumed blabber mouth convicted felon and child rapist Taco Trump or Steve Witkoff leaked it, but maybe it was Tulsi?

RIP Catherine O'Hara, your career provided so much joy and happiness in a world that needed it.

The Second City Toronto crowd from the 1970s has produced all the best comedic actors of my lifetime, what an amazing phenomenon. I am thankful to that entire community for a lifetime of entertainment.

Abolish ICE.

Restrict Border Patrol to actual border regions.

Prosecute these lawless thugs for the murders, assaults and illegal home invasions they are committing.

Get convicted felon and child rapist Trump's gestapo goons off our streets.

NOW. Period.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer says Democrats will pout, write some angry letters, use carefully chosen mild language and briefly oppose additional ICE funding before they cave in a few weeks.

Sure would be nice to have an OPPOSITION party instead of just fascists and appeasers.

I'm glad that even the right wing gun advocates are rejecting convicted felon and child rapist Taco Trump's lies about Alex Pretti and his lawful carrying of a gun.

This is yet another absolutely unjustified murder of an American citizen by federal gestapo goons.

Convicted felon and child rapist Taco Trump has set the precedent that regional powers can do whatever they want within their regions. Thus, supporting Putin in Ukraine, threatening, Greenland, threatening, Venezuela, etc. Saudi Arabia, UAE and Yemen fighting is a direct result.

One simple change that is desperately needed in US law is to increase the oversight for any declared "state of emergency". Any state of emergency should automatically be canceled unless a 3/5 supermajority vote in Congress confirms the emergency within, say, one week.

It seems possible that convicted felon and child rapist Taco Trump's plan is to ramp up ICE violence then use the resulting lawful peaceful protests as an excuse to invoke the Insurrection Act, declare Marshal Law, and suspend the 2026 midterm election.

From the Department of Bashing Straw Men:

There is nothing hypocritical about wanting trained professionals to have access to guns but not wanting drunk red necks to have the same guns. Anyone willing to have the required training and follow the strictest standards can have all the guns they want.

Kreisau Circle. White Rose. Edelweiss Pirates.

Where are the equivalent groups today in America to oppose Republican fascism? To oppose the demented mad man, child rapist and convicted felon Trump? It feels like everyone is waiting for things to get worse or for someone else to solve the problem.

The 5 year Best Buy service plan on my Sony Bravia OLED 4K UHD TV expired on Dec 20, 2025. The audio just stopped working on Jan 13, 2026. 24 days after the warranty expired, it's hard not to feel like that is somehow deliberate.

When convicted felon and child rapist Taco Trump finally dies, hopefully soon, who will be happiest?

His wife? His children? The American people? Greenland? Europe? Ukraine?

We know Putin will mourn the most for losing his puppet.

1/4 GOP is developing the Making the American Dream Affordable Again act.

It is a hodgepodge of random ideas, almost none of which address or improve affordability. Concerning housing, mainly it's a huge boost to the already rich. Shocking, I know.

Iran is threatening Trump, are they stupid? You don't threaten an immoral unhinged nut job like convicted felon and child rapist Taco Trump. Instead, Iran just needs to award him a fake "peace prize" or offer him a real estate deal and Trump will kill their protestors for them.

If Jonathan Ross is not convicted of murder by US courts, he should be convicted by a mob with pitch forks and a short rope instead.

Renee Good was murdered in cold blood with extreme malice.

The ICE gestapo must be completely dismantled.
January 10, 2026 at 6:05 PM
Jonathan Ross, a murderous thug for the fascist Trump regime, is an experienced law enforcement officer with more firearms experience that 99.9% of ICE agents.

And still he committed a cold blooded illegal murder of an innocent civilian. If he can't fulfill his duties safely then none of ICE can.

I hope the protests in Iran are successful, I hope they overthrown the current government.

For one, that could cut off Russian access to Iranian drones which would aid Ukraine. With Russia busy losing the war in Ukraine former Russian allies like Iran, Syria and Venezuela are vulnerable.

1/3 I think we're about to see a huge scam to transfer money from consumers to corporations.

The Supreme Court is probably about to end convicted felon and child rapist Taco Trump's illegal tariffs. This is good for consumers, will lower inflation and might improve jobs.
January 9, 2026 at 3:28 AM
Has convicted felon and child rapist Taco Trump finally found something to distract America from the Epstein Files by murdering American citizens?

Leave it to Republicans to distract from their past crimes with an ever escalating series of future crimes.
January 8, 2026 at 5:14 PM
Convicted felon and child rapist Taco Trump's goons murdered a US citizen in Minneapolis today. This murder was completely without justification as proven by video evidence. The Republican party fully supports these attacks on America.

Apparently the US is trying to seize another oil tanker of sanctioned oil. And Russian units are trying to protect the ship.

I'm completely okay with this action, the ship in question and the company that owns it are well known for illegal shipments of sanctioned oil.

This is exactly what Republicans really mean. Their real goal, which they occasionally admit by accident, is to eliminate everyone they don't consider "white".
Jen Sorensen nails the hypocrisy and racism of the "European culture" argument.
January 6, 2026 at 3:02 PM
Today is the anniversary of a failed coup, an attempted insurrection, a massive domestic terrorist attack.

There is nothing more important in modern US politics than stopping the evil fascist MAGAt movement and the anti-democratic actions of the Republicans.
January 6, 2026 at 2:01 PM
Will Venezuela respond to convicted felon and child rapist Trump's illegal attack?

Probably not. They likely lack the capability to respond even if they wanted to. Even some sort of terrorist response is probably beyond their capability. Note the US has numerous spies in their government.
