Dear People of Planet Earth,
There are millions of sane Americans. We are horrified this is happening. We tried to warn everybody 10 years ago with our music. We tried to tell you he was a pedo. We tried to tell you he was a fascist.
We are doing everything we can.
Sincerely,
The USA Singers

Never forget that billionaires spend billions to convince you that voting doesn't matter. Don't help them. Voting isn't the ONLY thing we can do, but it is the most powerful check on the executive. "Don't bother voting because there'll be no free elections" is oligarch propaganda.

At least we can sleep better at night knowing there’s FEMA.
Insurance costs are soaring, and coverage is hard to find in some parts of the United States. Communities say insurers are ignoring their efforts to confront the problem.

Before the cops in LA started escalating things for no reason it was funny how my main takeaway was how much people were looking out for each other in really helpful ways. I’ve never seen so many people with carts giving away free water, sunscreen, snacks, and masks to total strangers.

I don’t know where exactly he thinks he did this at. Sure the hell wasn’t in the Middle East or south-central Asia. They would have killed him.
Wow. Turns out that the Minnesota shooter Vance Boelter was an evangelical Christian who, per his website, "sought out militant Islamists in order to share the gospel and tell them that violence wasn't the answer."
Does this now make him a “militant Christianist?”
