Biden called Putin a murderer.

It's clear in the Mueller report that many in Trump's inner circle were aligned with Putin.

He's right.

Where are the so-called normie Republicans?

Poverty and wealth inequality are due to conscious policy choices to align with an ideology of maximizing profits for investors will lead to greater wealth for all. When combined with a new interpretation of monopolies as good, wages have stagnated or gone down.

Non-white and poor women were forced to work because of our racist and classist economic system that gave economic benefits to whites but not poor & non-whites.

My poor white & immigrant grandmother worked five or six days a week.

Let's not pretend our economic system was ever pro-moms.

White traditional women were NEVER forced to return to work. The Equal Rights Amendment was largely squashed by the work of a privileged white female attorney, Phylis Schafly. She convinced white women the ERA would force them into the work force. 4)

It was in the late 1960's when white middle class moms went to work that families purchased a 2nd car, took a nice vacation, & bought a bigger home. Women were happier working part or full time too. It was in the 70's that women obtained the right to establish credit in their name. 3)

Post-WWII the GI Bill funded predominantly white men's post-HS educations & housing loans. Black Veterans were largely excluded from gov't benefits. Black, Latino and poor white women continued to work out of necessity. It was not until the late 60's and 70's women began to work again. 2)

Post-Civil Rights Act - Southern and racist whites Democrats switched to GOP.

Today: This GOP is neither Republican or Democratic. They are racist, sexist, xenophobic authoritarian. They don't love the Post-Civil Rights American, but love Jim Crow and women have no rights America.

A family member is Korean-American. I worry about her. She lives in neighborhood with many East European immigrants who kicked ICE out of their community. By the ways, the protectors include police and firefighters.

One of my neighbors are Chinese immigrants. Their elderly mom lives with them & she takes her toddler aged granddaughter for walks. When I saw an empty stroller, I ran outside fearful ICE had taken her away. Thankfully, she & her grandchild were walking slowly. I exhaled.

The arrogant SCOTUS majority will shield Trump and gang. If Kamala Harris or Joe Biden were President, SCOTUS would do the opposite. Justice Roberts intimated in court his true intentions of ruling one way for Trump and another for a future President.

I have many friends who came here as refugees seeing religious freedom or to support their families in war torn or authoritarian nations. They believe in a country that celebrates our immigrant past, follow the rule of law & studied our constitution. They love the US more then Trump, Noem, & MAGA.

Anyone who read the second half of Mueller's report isn't surprised
December 9, 2025 at 1:12 PM
MAGA pro-Putin crowd love Russia, but they have no IDEA what it would be like living under Putin's thumb.
December 9, 2025 at 1:11 PM
We live in a time where anyone not Northern European looking can be targeted by Trump's secret police aka ICE.

In 2028 if a Democrat is elected President & control both houses of Congress, the first order of business should be to expand the court or enact term limits & to fortify the civil service so NO President can fire without due process.

By the way, Russia is a multi-racial, multi-religious and multi-ethnic country. The Russian woman hold up the country while being treated as second class citizens.

The USA backward looking autocratic Republicans don't seem to understand that Russia is not a "White" nation.

If you doubted the real reason behind deportation of hardworking immigrants with NO criminal record, Trump's showed you his real reasons with his hateful & racist rant against Somalia, Africa & non-white European citizens & his Nat'l Security Council condemnation of Europe's immigration policies.
