So, the liberals hail a «liberal» pope who is head of a church that is more reactionary than Trump, that is ruled by men, hypocrites who condemn homosexuality, abortion, condoms etc. Supporting the poor is no excuse for upholding the patriarchy

Trump seems to have listened to Støre and Stoltenberg. He suggests Putin is playing him. No kidding?

What books are you reading/listening to now?
I feel we need to read and learn more about both history and the present. I’m astonished - and yet not surprised - how relevant books about and from the 1930s are.

Trump says he’s considering deportlng US citizens to El Salvador gulags. US media goes with: oh, he’s not going to return one man. Are you kidding me? You are not doing your job! This is a five alarm crisis.

I participated in the Women’s March in 2017. This is pretty lame stuff in comparison. The opposition is in desperate need of better leaders - and speakers!

Why isn’t anybody pointing out that the production Trump is so nostalgic about is being taken over by robots? Even if he succeeded - which he will not - he wouldn’t bring back jobs. At the same time he is firing real people who is making America great. Scientists, engineers, educators

What is the matter with US media? They are seriously presenting a third term as a possibility. Because with Trump anything is possible! No, it’s not. The constitution is clear. Stop bowing to the insanity

No wonder MSM is slipping. The reporting and commentary is as oldfashioned as Biden. Saying (as If they believe it) sources tell us Trump is not firing anybody. No, not today, stupid

The CIA director claims he didn’t know Steve Witkoff was in Moscow. Either he’s lying to the Congress or he’s not doing his job. I suspect both
