USA is being run by a dumbass, and even dumber dumbasses who kiss his dumbass! USA is committing suicide! The Romans were rumored to have opened the gates to the Visigoths, so full of self-loathing for their own largesse they were! USA Empire is the same! Done! Rotten from within! Hope I'm wrong!
Ukraine and Zelensky have suffered alone long enough holding out in the name of Democracy! History will later consider all nations who don't think the world should unite now and liberate Ukraine by destroying Russian forces in Ukraine and Crimea as weak! We're gonna have to do it, so do it!
We're so far down the pike of stupidity and excess of comfort and dumb indulgence that we've come to believe silly quips on social media will save our democracy, while everyday brave Ukranians show what's really required to save Democracy! Rome rotted from within! Is that us?
Brian Glenn: President Zelenskyy, you look fabulous in that suit Zelenskyy: You are in the same suit. I changed, you did not.
I love Zelensky! He's the real deal! A real man! A real leader!
Zelensky wore a suit this time.
People have no idea! Every sociopath who couldn't get a job anywhere of any kind, and who dwells on society's periphery, and who dreams of power and guns and who thirsts for the cowardly kill, but who couldn't qualify for the military, will soon have bucks aplenty, and immense power over you and I!
Thank you for saying this! It's true! But there's a greater fight going on right now in USA between Democracy and tyranny! Trump throws treason and treachery and corruption in our faces every day! And he's winning! Why aren't you fighting for the bigger picture? You need to do more! Dems are weak!
Correct. A tyrant will just wait for the peasants to get tired and go home for tea! Protests are important, but we've had it too cushy for too long, evil is winning, and I know my own protestations and quips on social media are just pitiful dopamine highs! Real pitchforks are required! Real justice!
The reason we know so much about the Holocaust is because nazis kept impeccable records! Once you create an evil bureaucracy as Hitler did with the SS/Gestapo, and as trump is doing with ICE, there's no stopping it without bloodshed! Killing and disappearing people is now government policy in USA!
I've never been arrested! I don't own a gun despite 11 years as a soldier! But watching this evil unfold, watching fascists kidnap innocent people from the streets and disappear them, fills me with a killing rage! They will come for me eventually, as a naturalized citizen, just a matter of time!
He has his own private army now! As was his intention! His own 'Pretorian Guard'! His own 'SS'! His own 'Gestapo'! His own 'Brownshirts'! A private army massively funded beyond imagination! Beyond even the imagination of Caligula! What awaits in the destruction of the USA will compare to Rome!
Grab some tissues and watch Zelenskyy being interviewed by 2 kids at the NATO Summit.
Isn't it because he's attending a black tie dinner, which is more specific than day to day meetings and perhaps this is Zelensky's war time version of a tuxedo? Either way; no one could ever accuse Zelensky, undoubtedly the leader of the free world, of being a fop!! As are many Western politicians!
Your wishes are but wistful thinking and won't help! However: that you interpret that I think it's 'great' or I'm 'cheering' in any other way than the most cynical sense only shows your lacking of understanding and your conceitedness! Find somewhere else to virtue-signal such cowardly thoughts!
Zelensky = Leader of the Free World! Ukraine = The only brave nation in the Free World! The Free World = Mostly cowards who won't be free much longer if we continue to let Ukraine fight alone!
When Ukraine wins this war, our cheers will be heard from space!
BREAKING: Gavin Newsom just posted this mocking Trump’s military parade.
The 'real' cops show up, and the 'fake' cop just manages to walk away and escape on foot before they find the murdered member of congress in the home! Was he a real cop? Do they know him? Something stinks in this story, and they want us to surrender to anyone in a mask with a gun! Fuck that!
Rolling coal in a duelly is about the most hick, the most mouth-breathing, the most redneck, the most asinine, the most obnoxious and dumb thing a maga moron can do! Don't tell tell maga I said this though, or they'll all be rolling coal, because to be the above retard is their greatest goal!
Tanks in DC Troops in LA. A military parade on his birthday. Trump is done pretending. This is what authoritarianism looks like in America. My latest on why we must speak out now — before silence becomes complicity. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/authoritar...
In a stable Democracy the military is not politicized because their nation is stable, and their threats are from without! This blatant attempt to subvert the military to his whim, as if they are the Pretorian Guard, his personal army, is foreboding! And it seems to be working! Hope I'm wrong!
BREAKING: A few minutes ago, a vehicle of three people was rammed by a truck belonging to federal immigration authorities in Boyle Heights, CA. According to security footage shown to me, they deployed chemical munitions & detained the driver at gunpoint. All are US citizens according to the wife.
This is the way to stand up to these bullies! Respect ✊
If you agree, please share!
The ancient Greeks, when speaking of justice, said: "Might equals right! The strong do as they will and the weak suffer as they must!" And today's right agree! That is trumpism! While today's left, or pro Democracy, seem happy to virtue-signal on social media about equality! But have no fight?
This is not a philosophy he created! He built his words around trumpism, and trumpism and trumpists have used his written word as a reference to explain their actions! He's an evil opportunist who uses words to justify the evil actions of others! We fail in giving this vile cunt credibility!
Neighbors cat! Well fed! Perfect camouflage for the community! I love cats and appreciate the random times she visits! But she's a killer too! I also love our hummingbirds, which this predator sees and successfully hunts as prey! A simple collar and bell would help! Cat owners have a responsibility!
ICE are the Modern American Brownshirts! Every society has evil sociopaths who would seek employment that lends legitimacy to their desire to hurt and bully others! Nazism legalised the killing of the Jews, and those who eagerly signed up for the job are the same type as those who sign up for ICE!
As an atheist I reject this because there is no evidence of any God in this universe that is conscious of our existence! Kindness and humility are more naturally akin to atheism because we know our place, while pompous Christians place themselves above the animals when, in truth, they are but equal!

Bezos, like the miserable bean-counter he is, can only see money! He can't see the retribution he will one day face for being an enemy of Democracy, of the people, a conspirator in the effort to hand the world to putin and the oligarchs! Pitchforks, proverbial or real shall gut that foul parasite!
When a Democracy fails, if it was a true Democracy where the greatest amount of people participated fairly and within established laws that protect all equally, then the people themselves are to blame, and not any one person! No one person could become a dictator without the blessing of the many!
Who did this? 😂
LET’S. DO. THIS. 😎✨
If Europe want to enjoy peace and their relatively comfortable lives, then they need to do more than offer platitudes and dress in Ukranian colors from fancy designer stores! EU can't even deal with Orban, let alone overcome their bureaucracy and fight the evil they face in putin! Hope I'm wrong!
Kill putin! And trump dies! It's putin's web of money, misinformation, and infiltration of our free access to information and fair elections that's instrumental in the rise of trump! USA has fallen! But history will be harsh on Europe too! Only Ukraine can hold their heads high when history judges!
Judge a society by how it looks after the young and how it looks after the old! Civilized societies are civilized because they've come to understand who's most fragile! And instead of exploiting the weak, the strong protect them! This is Democracy, and why Democracy is the best form of government!
Fox News has been instrumental in destroying USA! Without the influence of Fox News, there would be no trump, no maga! Rupert Murdock, that miserable fetid old cadaver will probably suffer no retribution! But anyone working at Fox is a traitor too because the purpose of Fox News is to destroy USA!
We apologize for the length of this post, but we felt it was important to share the full details with you.
USA is in a race with the rest of the world! But the USA is racing backward like a demented athlete, in the wrong direction, stumbling and falling! Racing back to the dark ages of ignorance and superstition while the world races forward! Why do Americans allow this? History shall forever question!
Exactly! It could be any one of us who is critical of trump! And it will be any one of us once they build the machinery and apparatus to get rid of thousands or millions, just as the nazis did! That's what they're doing! They're building the machinery and systems of tyranny! And they're winning!
500m extracted from struggling Americans so as to feed the insatiable greed of the oligarchs! And the oligarchs are not even afraid! They think us weak! They think of us the people as worms! They think they're smart, and they think us dumb! But their mistake is thinking the worm will never turn!
I don't understand how some folks are unable to see that the illegal disappearing of people is a class issue. The wealthy and well-connected get due process. The rest of us don't. This is part of the oligarchy, not a distraction from it.
It's worth keeping Guantanamo Bay open for the Nuremberg style trials that should take place once Democracy prevails against the evil that now unjustly governs the people with fear and tyranny! Every ICE fascist, the entire administration, the oligarchs, all held without bond as they await trial!
Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism. If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone. Americans of conscience must stand against this now.
Lawyers are just Sophists! They play a word game to make money and seem not concerned with Morals or Democracy! But a Democracy relies on its laws to survive and protect all equally! So lawyers and judges should do their duty, or peasant and pitchfork will be the inevitable law of the land!
Without due process, this could be you. It could be me. It could be any or all of us. It doesn’t matter who you voted for. Or the color of your skin. You must understand what is truly at stake here. All tyranny needs to thrive is for people of good conscience to remain silent.

Religion: the biggest money laundering scam in history!
Thankfully, you're liberated and free from such harmful superstition! And free to do good things on your own recognizance without having to attribute that good to anything but your own heart and soul! That is the measure of objective good; not relying on anything, but your own natural motivation!
He's come a long way in a short time has Michael Cohen!
Obviously, Adam is a decent and honorable man. He shows us that through his words and deeds in standing up against trumpism! But this has nothing to do with Christianity. Evil souls will bring evil to their beliefs! Good souls will bring good! But Christianity is not the maker of a good soul!
If you were born into a world without Christianity, you would not be a Christian. If Christianity was real, it would be inspirational and not have to be handed down from generation to generation! You can't claim the moral high ground by quoting Christianity because the Bible also inspires evil acts!
You say they are not true Christians! And they say you're not a true Christian! Christianity, like any other religion, is just folklore and fable that's open to interpretation! That's why a Christian who commits evil in the name of Jesus has as much validity as any other Christian! It's all lies!
This is what's broken about our Democracy: it's all about who has the most money, and all about raising money! It's broken because citizens who wish to serve their nation should not have to raise millions to serve! It's more about fame and fortune! It's more like Hollywood; celebrity mentality!
Exactly!

Anyone who can spend, assuming daily, $9.40 or even $8.15 for a daily expresso is probably not that worried! That's $244.50 or $282.00 a month! That's big money over a month to me, or am I just really poor?
Education is helpful and valuable! I think an education in history would bring out the leader and wisdom in a person, while an education in finance might produce the most profitable! But which particular education is then most valuable? The value of any education depends on the person!
It's not about education! Education doesn't make a person intelligent! You're either born intelligent or stupid, or on a scale of 1-10 somewhere in between. Education is information, which doesn't make a good speaker, a good leader, or a good person! That's nebulous! Obama is not stupid! Trump is!
Agreed!
BIG NEWS: @legalafmtn.bsky.social has arrived on Bluesky! We are thrilled to see Legal AF—the top podcast at the intersection of law and politics—here on this incredible platform. Make sure to give the show a follow!
If I were a billionaire, I would be very uncomfortable! I would be expecting that at some point I'm going to get the Luigi treatment! They can only stick the knife in the peasants so much before the worm turns! Then they'll feel the sharp end of a pitchfork! Not making threats! Just a prediction!
They say the Romans opened the gates to the Visigoths and offered themselves up for slaughter, because after about five hundred years of being an Empire, they became full of self-loathing and boredom and wanted to be defeated! USA is arguably the same pile of stagnation that has decided on suicide!
Capitalism and Democracy can work together! But when capitalism becomes decoupled from Democracy, when capitalism and greed are admired more than Democracy, more than human rights, more than the notion that we should help eachother and not just ourselves, then capitalism will destroy Democracy!
This is how we fail! This man only has a voice because of money! But we know money is not the measure of man, but he is given prominence because of his money! I only know who he is because other people promote what he says! He needs a good thrust of the peasant's pitchfork, as far as I'm concerned!

These people writing their desperate entreaties to trump remind of the russian soldiers in Ukraine being extorted, tortured, and thrown into meat assaults by their officers and deprived of medical care, appealing to putin for help! It shows the depths of their delusion that they think trump cares!
Today this is happening in our country, right now
The fear of Martial Law ignores the fact that it wouldn't help trump because the nation can't function under Martial Law; it would have to be lifted quickly if implemented, and populace would be more revolutionary and more angry! Easier pretexts exist to declare himself Emperor without curfews!
He won't have that security detail one day!
The penguins wouldn't pay the tariffs, though! Americans who import the products made by the penguins would pay the penguin-tariffs. Penguins are easily smarter than humans because they can figure out what a tariff is!
Canada is really showing leadership by confronting reality, saying it how it is, not equivocating and not nail-biting, but confidently standing strong! The rest of the world, especially the UK, needs to do the same!
This is Ellie. She saw her humans out kayaking and decided to rescue them. Only slightly overreacted. Still 14/10
Go, Canada! Leaders of the free world!
When we take back our democracy there must be a reckoning! Modern Brownshirts, AKA ICE, must be arrested and imprisoned in Quantomono Bay! Homan's nazis hiding under hoods and masks need to understand that stating they were just following orders won't help them escape justice and retribution!
Rubio and Hegseth have installed this twenty-something DOGE affiliate, Nate Cavanaugh, as acting president of the U.S. Institute of Peace, per filing. Before DOGE took control of USIP, the duly appointed president was George Moose, a career diplomat who first joined the foreign service in 1967.
ICE are truly the modern Brownshirts! They will ultimately face justice for their crimes! Following orders is no excuse for committing crimes against humanity! Just ask the last batch of nazi scum! They may feel powerful today! But one day, they'll bow their heads in shame and beg for mercy!

I respect Mark Kelly! I called his office to thank him when musk initially called him a traitor when he stood up for Ukraine! I understand there are different styles, and as a person quick to attack my perceived enemies, I respect restraint and moderation! But this 'elon' stuff verges on groveling!
Haha!
Great!
Putin's control of the nation is complete! But that beanie-wearing ponce is low on the traitor totem-pole and low on putin's payroll! He needs to know he's going down like the rest of them, but will be the first to fall! The Rosenbergs were patriots compared to these cunts! May he meet justice soon!
She's a psychopath! Everything about her is fake, except her evil soul. She enjoyed killing that dog! It gave her a sense of power! Turned her on sexually! I have no doubt that if the opportunity arose and she thought she could get away with it, she'd kill a human being and enjoy it much, much more!
I mean in the bigger picture of things; they didn't swoop on the wrong person and slam the defending lady against the hood of the car and protect the incel! Shows the cops, while flawed, don't work for musk or trump but still work for democracy so far! For contrast: not like ICE: modern Brownshirts!
If you think what happened to Rumeysa Ozturk can't happen to you because you're a citizen and she's not, you are sorely mistaken. Ozturk was snatched off the street not for being a national security threat but for having a wrong opinion. If we don't put a stop to this, it's coming for all of us.
Lots of questions
Have to point out that the cops did a great job here!
Love the way that lady took no shit and immediately sprung into action, and physicallly and morally overwhelmed that pathetic little cunt, who's weak and worthless like all trumpers and all incels who suck on Elon! She's awesome! Victory shall be ours because of people like her!
It's obvious to my instincts that Russia and China already have all the information, all the intelligence, and all of the Nation's secrets in their hands! No matter what happens, the USA will never recover its prowess! And Obama talks blissfully and says,'It's another era!' Pathetic and complicit!
I miss Christopher Hitchens!
I’m just saying! 🤷🏻♀️😂
Religion gives evil people a reason to justify their evil! That's all religion is: an excuse to behave with evil! And those that argue that not all religious people are evil and that some religious people do good! I say they only do it to promote their religion! Religion is not needed to do good!
We need more Jon Ossoffs in the Democratic Party. This is just fantastic.
