Do we still believe in the Declaration of Independence? If so, why protest? Abolish!
"That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends (i.e., Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness), it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government."

If I were an Israeli, I would be very chary of Christian Evangelical support for Israel. They don't like Jews, but they believe that Jerusalem must be in Jewish hands when it is destroyed at Armageddon to bring about the Second Coming. With friends like these, who needs enemies?

In 1896, Theodor Herzl proposed Argentina as a site for the Zionist Jewish homeland in his book, Der Judenstaat. He was impressed by the fertility of the soil and the sparseness of the population. By 1897, Palestine had been selected. There was just one problem -- Palestinians. Boycott Israel!

The Kingdom of Israel ceased to exist in 722 BC after the conquest by Sargon II, king of the Neo-Assyrian empire. The population was deported. There was never a united kingdom. The only Israelites left were the Samaritans, hated by the Judaens. Israel is a colonial state founded by East Europeans.

Zionism is not Judaism
Christian Nationalism is not Christianity

The first ones are political & the second ones are religions.

I hope this clears it up.

Personally I’m atheist so I don’t believe in any of them BUT I respect someone’s religion if they aren’t trying to KILL people with it.

When Kennedy cancels research on vaccine development, and established weather forecasting satellites are closed down for no good reason, it can only be concluded that this administration is deliberately trying to indirectly kill Americans. Americans actually voted for this stupidity? Ridiculous!

I'm not sure 65-69% of Americans would agree the sun is hot and night is dark, but they apparently agree on this:

Americans who say Trump is "very" or "somewhat dishonest" =
69%

Americans who say Trump is "very" or "somewhat corrupt" = 65%

What is the difference between U. S. Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem and SS-Obergruppenführer und General der Polizei Reinhard Heydrich? Yes, you are unfortunately correct.

We are turning Earth into a unlivable Hot House Earth
Earth was about 2.65 degrees Fahrenheit (or about 1.47 degrees Celsius) warmer in 2024 than in the late 19th-century (1850-1900) preindustrial average.

The 10 most recent years are the warmest on record.

When the Washington Post offered me a half-priced renewal if I wouldn't cancel my subscription, I said, "No thanks, I like my news uncensored."

Crimes against the climate are crimes against humanity and against the biosphere. These crimes are so serious that the minimum sentence should be death.
The White House has instructed NASA to terminate two major, climate change-focused satellite missions. They've been collecting widely-used data, providing both oil and gas companies and farmers with detailed information about the distribution of carbon dioxide and how it can affect crop health.

Crockett: My former colleagues from the Texas House—decided to get the hell out of Texas… breaking quorum is where they’re at right now. And they didn’t just do it by themselves—they went to Illinois, where there is a governor that gives a damn. This fight is going to take all of us.
