A 2021 Kremlin paper described Donald Trump as an "impulsive, mentally unstable and unbalanced individual”. Classified as “the most promising candidate from Moscow's point of view, as his election was predicted to definitely lead to the destabilisation of the US' sociopolitical system”.

Today
•Israeli soldiers murdered 2 Palestinians in the West Bank via cold blooded execution
•American soldiers murdered 2 civilians in the Caribbean via cold blooded execution

Here’s the thing—Unless you’re loudly condemning both, you’re enabling both. ‪We don’t have time for cowardice & hypocrisy.

These two things are true:
1) Shooting National Guard members is horrific and criminal.
2) So is putting National Guard members in harm’s way to score political points.

How we beat back the corporate takeover of America:

1. Break up corporate monopolies

2. Continue building union power

3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics

Let’s keep working to unrig the system.

Remember: The recipe for economic growth isn’t tax cuts for the rich. It’s investment in our people — in health care, infrastructure and education — to build a strong middle class.

You don't grow the economy through trickle-down nonsense.

Place National Guard in harm’s way for no good reason. Two members are tragically and unnecessarily shot. The reckless regime’s response: We’re sending 500 more National Guard troops! What a disgrace.

Over a quarter of Trump's proposed $1T military budget would go to just four companies who have spent $103B in taxpayer dollars on stock buybacks and dividends over the last decade.

He wants to use your money to make the military-industrial complex even richer.
