His name is Christian Smalls.
He founded the Amazon Labor union
Not as a professional activist, but as a worker who decided he’d had enough.
Recently, he was beaten and detained by the IDF
And no one in the MSM is talking about it.

The U.S. won’t achieve true greatness until it admits it never had it.
Slavery, genocide, segregation, internment camps, this isn’t a golden age, it’s a wound we’ve never treated.
If greatness is the goal, justice must be the path.

Al Gore didn’t hold back: The Trump admin is “attacking the heart of truth,” twisting facts like the Nazis did in the 1930s. From climate denial to rewriting the Ukraine war, it’s all about power—not reality.
Gore warned the U.S. is under siege—and every former leader should speak out like he did.

I went to a local rural democratic meeting this evening. I heard nearly half the people in the room mention Kilmer Abrego Garcia.
The GOP mistakenly thinks this is going to fall by the wayside. When farmers are talking about this man who was disappeared by our federal govt, the govt has problems

Watch constituents confront Sen. Chuck Grassley with righteous fury over Trump’s illegal deportations—especially Kilmar Abrego Garcia.
As Nicolle Wallace said: Americans are waking up to a lived reality. And no, Republicans—no one’s eating sand anymore.

Apparently Speaker Johnson does not want women to vote in Congress or to vote in America, going to great lengths to kill a bipartisan measure letting new parents vote remotely—calling the sponsors “emotional”—and also pushing the Save Act to disenfranchise millions of women.
