The Law of the Jungle? "Might Makes Right" Hegseth is just another schoolyard bully given a job that he falls light-years short of being competent to execute.
This is what lawlessness looks and sounds like
Ossoff: He never should have been confirmed by the senate and he needs to resign. It is one thing to be a skeptic or a reformer. It is quite another to be a fool…
I just read someone refer to Cheryl Hines (RFKs wife) as The Marvelous Mrs. Measles and this is the kind of energy we need right now.
Hello diphtheria, polio and measles my old friends. www.forbes.com/sites/antoni...
This is very accurate
Japan has just opened its first osmotic power plant 🌊⚡ This works by mixing fresh & salt water across a membrane, creating pressure that drives a turbine to make electricity. This site will generate 880,000 kWh a year...while helping run a desalination plant providing fresh water to the city 👏
Krasner: So, if what you have is a group of ICE agents, or even the military, coming into Philadelphia and committing crimes—assaults that are illegal, kidnapping, unlawful restraint, obstruction of the administration of justice—they can be prosecuted.

The fight continues! I'm proud to be with Nicole Collie on the House Floor tonight. She and I took a stand, and Texas House Dems stand with her. We are fighting for all Texans & the American people. Stand with us! Fight back, stand up, do whatever you can wherever you are!
You're not suggesting that the president is running a protection racket.
America has fallen.
Power isn’t just in governments - it’s in everyday life, shaping what and how we think, determining what is true; subtle, explicit always active What we call knowledge is built inside systems of control and those systems dictate what is normal Resist - question everything and everyone
The effort to terrorize the citizens of the USA is well underway. The owning class has manipulated the minds of MAGA by controlling the information they get, and they approve of this treatment of their fellow citizens, because their misinformation identifies those citizens as "the enemy."

The moment he named his platform “Truth Social” we were headed this way.
Notice they don’t deny it. Corruption and grift at every turn. 🇺🇸
I find myself blocked for reasons I cannot imagine, by people I agree with on almost everything. My difficulty with "left idealism" is much like your own. Nobody can support all those causes simultaneously. But each disagreement loses a set of single-issue voters, the bane of the left.
Reality is being explained in complete sentences. Thank you.
Clearly this is not about making DC, or any of us, safer.
Ari reached for 2 coffee mugs & caught a #rainbow on the edge of her vision. She turned to see it more fully. “Maybe you’re right.” “You’re my witness,” Jin told Lee-jin. “Listen hard.” “Our partnership’s about complementing each other. Parenthood should be the same.” #vss365
Navigating the trashed-beyond-repair local authority adult social services & NHS medical care for dad is a full time job, requiring more tracking & coordination than I ever need to use at work. Genuinely astounded how people aren’t being just left to die in their homes given how bad this system is
"Are you seriously claiming that Trump is deploying the National Guard to D.C. as a distraction from his relationship with Epstein?" Yes. I am. Next question.
Senior British MP says US ambassador to Israel is 'clearly an idiot' Foreign Affairs Committee chair Emily Thornberry made the comment after Mike Huckabee attacked the UK for opposing Israeli war plans www.middleeasteye.net/news/senior-...
Epstein's only public client, Les Wexner, has never been subpoenaed or deposed in the criminal cases or investigations that followed. He is 87 years-old and living out the remainder of his life on a massive complex in Ohio.
Karen Bass: "You don't deploy the armed forces because of people's feelings."
But I was told by everyone on the right that the only person who could deploy the National Guard (or prevent the deployment of the National Guard) was Nancy Pelosi.
Close, intelligent, in some cases near lifelong friends are starting to talk casually about the use of ChatGPT in their lives or in some cases are clearly getting paid/perks to promote its use and it’s like watching your social circle slowly, and with a big smile on their face, all join Scientology.

Bowser: "I think I speak for all Americans -- we don't believe it's legal to use the American military against American citizens on American soil."
It also makes no sense to talk about crime without tackling poverty.
New Zealand can't talk about homelessness without tackling poverty, advocate says
What we see happening in real time is actually part of Martial Law. Oh, it hasn’t been officially declared, but his federal takeover plans for cities across the nation…under the cloak of “attacking crime,” is pre-positioning for when he does. It will happen prior to the November elections. Watch.
Heck yeah! Keep fighting
The Secretary of Defense posted a video calling for a repeal of women’s right to vote. When they tell you who they are, BELIEVE THEM. And vote accordingly.
More distractions and a continuation of his REGIME... federal takeover of Washington DC. Wish you cared that much on January 6th you POS.
I live in rural Missouri, population 480. I travel to DC a few times a year. The President is lying.

Large #ICEprotest, with little to no media coverage, in LA yesterday
Really, Kristi?
He's creating support for the narrative that the cities are out of control. His base will believe it, and the troops will be accustomed to the idea. This is their plan to avoid 2026. Once troops are attacked, they will unite against the attackers. Their constitution and oaths become irrelevant.
I don’t understand the motivation here. Is he testing this out for future use? Is he trying to get folks used to the idea of martial law for when he uses it to postpone elections? Is he trying to incite violence like he did in LA but failed, or is this just police state stuff?
the clown car arrives in the White House briefing room
DC statehood is now an imperative. No more dicking around. Next Dem majority, get it done immediately.
I’ve read A People’s History of the United States. Very different from what we were taught in school about American history. America was built from massacres, slavery, oppression, hate n greed. American Democracy was an illusion! #america
Kelly: "I had another situation here with a kid who was on his little league trip in a baseball tournament. Border Patrol pulls over the vehicle, identifies the brown kid, he winds up in lockup for a week...this isn't what the American people wanted and I don't think it's consistent with our values"

No matter how many times people say they don't protest Trump or pressure him because he won't listen, the reality is he's a weak-minded praise-addicted fool who crumbles when there's real pushback, especially from the media. TACO isn't just about tariffs. But you do have to...you know...push back.
Berman: Was the President right about the polling? Enten: No. If we are comparing him to other presidents at this point in their presidencies, he is the second lowest on record compared only to himself.
Indeed.

Happy 64th birthday Mr.President 💙
#ProudBlue If Trump was willing to pull out all stops & cheat over some stupid magazine polls, what do you think he would be willing to do to win an election or keep his name from being published to the public in the Epstein files? Just saying!

Greetings from Kyiv! You might think I drink warcoffee all day long. No, I just love this place. It’s calm in Kyiv now. Thick clouds hang from the sky like heavy bunches of grapes.
When public media disappears, so do the stories that bring us together. With federal funding eliminated, millions may lose their last trusted source of news and connection. If that matters to you, now’s the time to act. Donate: n.pr/458sOhq

Not sure that it's a good idea for a cat, though. She'll be licking it off like mad. Could work on the rug, but then my wife would kill ME 😉
Skegness, one of your absolute finest people right here. Buy her a drink whenever you see her.
Texas GOP Rep. Giovanni Capriglione...the same man who rammed through a six‑week abortion ban...has been exposed: a 17‑year affair and allegedly paid for multiple abortions. These aren't leaders...they're hypocrites in power. If that doesn’t make you furious, you’re not awake.
Breaking Bad speaks good......
For every time a guy waxes poetic about Hulk Hogan’s death, or someone welcomes back a predator to the spaces they were fired from, just because time has passed, is a perfect spotlight on why women don’t come forward. We see you. We clock your complicity in tolerance. We see you. Believe women.

in addition to being against Capitalism, against Fascism, and for a system of socio-economics based on mahi and community, what more is expected to qualify? Must I be for anarchy, or abject and futile pacifism? Do I have to reject the D candidates and lose to R candidates because of idealism? /end
Yes, I'm bringing the laws of physics, and inconvenient truths. It isn't all going to just turn out all right. I wrote a book that explains a lot of the reason why that happens, and more, but you, apparently, are unwilling to even read the back cover, and I still do not know what
Which you proceeded to dismiss as "vibes and/or nothing." I'm not angry, it's expected behaviour after all, but y'all might do yourselves a favour and stop judging people who are working with you to stem the tide of fascism on some mess of self-contradictory invisible standards.
The basic difficulty "the left" has is its tendency to form circular firing squads. The heart of being on "Left" is economics, and I unapologetically know more about real economics than most leftists and any mainstream economists. I just demonstrated that with a book.
I'm not even sure I'm ON the left overall, UBI -Yes, MMT -Sorta, Medical, Dental, Education paid for -Yes — but after the basics it gets sorta fuzzy. I don't hate nukes enough? I'm this guy, but people keep telling me I need to be someone else. firstmakeitwork.org/2023/09/16/m...

I mean, nobody is surprised that his name is in the Epstein files, right?
