I'm not allowed to say what should really happen but replacing every incumbent democrat with someone who isn't a fucking quisling wouldn't be terrible

TL;DR of Hakeem Jeffries official statement on Trump’s illegal war & regime change operation in Venezuela: “What you did was fine, but it’s a problem you did it without our approval.” There is no opposition party in the United States, only proud fascists and those who pretend they aren’t fascists.

you simply do not have to preface your statements about this with “but Maduro sucks” whether or not Maduro sucks is entirely beside the point - we invaded another country and grabbed their leader with no justification other than “we wanted to” don’t give them cover on it

the card based wargame I'm making has two communist factions and you'd think that they would work together but they fucking hate each other because one are anarchists and the other are colonizers that pillage planets for their dead in order to make zombies do all of their society's work

*unhealthy (for this post) means anything that YOU would prefer not to do when feeling your best I’m NOT talking about food choices, unless YOU have food goals maladaptive behavior, texting an ex, doomscrolling, drinking, smoking, etc etc Whatever it is, being kind to yourself mitigates burnout 🫶🏻

Mental script for when you catch yourself doing something “unhealthy*” Rather than scold yourself “I shouldn’t” Empower yourself “We have more options now” & adjust if you can We deserve to be nicer to ourselves & SO much energy is wasted in just being cruel to ourselves while trying our best 😓

I got my surgery! I am recovering but I’m still needing to reach that goal before the 15th so I can make sure rent is paid and I can afford the post surgery medication and antibiotics

Another reminder that in the first 3 months of 2026 there will be nearly *30* State Legislative Special Elections across the country, with several red-to-blue flipping opportunities. So rest up over the holidays. As soon as the new year has been rung in, we’ve got work to do.

If flipping GOP-held State Legislative seats in Special Elections is your thing, I currently count *5* races in the first 3 months of 2026 that could very well be on the map: 1 in South Carolina 1 in Arkansas 3 in Florida It's gonna be a busy year right out of the gate.

Based on responses so far, when Trump attempts illegal invasions of Greenland and Canada they can expect stronger support from China than they can from the United Kingdom.

Y'all we are so, so close. Please help us get there.

If there ever was a time for bi partisan support for impeachment to show Congress is an equal partner in governing according to our constitution now would be the time.

check out this thread if you would like to help out the people in venezuela. now is not the time to look down on the ways you are powerless, but rather do everything that you are able to right now. we all have a responsibility

And if that WAS an exceptaboe excuse for kidnapping a world leader, what's to stop someone from kidnapping the US president then rightly pointing out that Trump not only poops his pants, but he's also a criminal.

Like I said, right now I can't go out to buy food or supplies or anything, is not safe to go out. But if you still wanna help with whats happening so that I have some emergency funds just in case, here's my Ko-fi link.

Ok, so Canada can indict Trump for bribery, bomb Washington DC, and send the Mounties to round him up. It's that how this works? This is effectively might makes right by Vance. The US does not have sovereign authority over foreign leaders.

You don't have to listen to these professional liars who are barely trying. 9 months ago they were saying they were powerless to return a man they illegally sent to an El Salvador gulag because it would violate that country's national sovereignty

abandoning my journalistic objectivity to say that the U.S. should not be bombing Venezuela

There is no justification for this, no matter what you think of Maduro or whatever, this is an illegal act of unprovoked war against a sovereign nation by a fascist power. End of discussion.

Legality should not be your guiding star in this - humanity should.

Ah, the fucking hypocrisy.

i fear we will soon witness yet another explosion of shockingly violent rhetoric and signage on college campuses nationwide

A fatal cat disease was finally cured, but the treatment wasn’t legally available. So a group of cat lovers created an international black market. This week on @revealnews.org:

Threat of homelessness and the found family i have is coming together to figure something out. It is a really sad circumstance but its nice to see the response compared to how it was with my parents.

MS NOW is putting on John Effing Bolton to defend Trump's attack on Venezuela. We need less corporate media, more pro-democracy, pro-decency news media.

The US invades a sovereign nation to force a regime change and a major news network reports it like this and it’s only January 3rd

It’s not doing false equivalency to point out how US empire works- it’s incredibly important to not fight against this kind of stuff by opposing just one part of it- that’s becoming the controlled opposition.

I’m just a simple country law-talkin’ comedy badger who don’t much know a bunch bout international relations and the politics of Latin American nations, but I’d venture to say it ain’t a good thing to be unilaterally deposing’ heads of state without any consultation or consensus.

The issue is an American president shouldn’t be allowed to just do this shit. For God’s sake if we’re going to undermine the governments of Latin America we have to give Dole the right of first refusal.

There's studies suggesting that AI usage is causing cognitive decline, even when it's not causing psychosis and encouraging its users to harm themselves and others, just regular old usage is damaging. Far from a "cognitive amplifier" like this slop peddler suggests, it's a cognitive atrophier.

CIA at it again. Going back decades, US behaviour towards S America is rarely in the US people’s favour & never in their Southern neighbours’. Export of political instability to the South has been a long tradition, which has blighted these nations*. The CIA Drug Connection Is as Old as the Agency

In a room full of people talking, I can’t filter the noise or pick out one conversation. Everything hits at once. That isn’t “annoying.” It’s overwhelming. The irritation and anger that follow aren’t a personality flaw, they’re a nervous system under pressure. 1/2

This is meme is so relevant right now it hurts.

Two questions: 1. Do we still have a War Powers Act, which prevents a president from carrying out military aggression without Congress’s consent? 2. Do we still have a Congress?

Secretaries Rubio and Hegseth looked every Senator in the eye a few weeks ago and said this wasn’t about regime change. I didn’t trust them then and we see now that they blatantly lied to Congress.

I am now the only person in my family with a semi-stable income and there are massive expenses ahead. If you are sick of seeing this post then believe me, that makes two of us.

I am 22 yrs younger than my husband. Met him when I was 24. Never wanted marriage, never expected anything beyond a fling. We will celebrate 19 yrs of marriage this yr. Now that I'm in my mid 40's and he's retired no one bats an eye. Families realize we're great together❤️

"A mutant is a lot more likely to be a victim of violence than the perpetrator." Well said, C Robert Cargill. That works for trans people too.

This is going to show who's who in America's so called Resistance. A lot of the Legacy Democrats / "Vote Blue No matter Who" crowd wont be able to help themselves and will applaud the fall of the Caracas government (or be silent altogether) even as they deplore the illegality.

Last bit before I doze off. Delci Rodriguez, the Vice President, just asked the US for proof of life, so it is official Maduro and his wife were taken.

@emergentdivergence.com 's new course starts on January 7th, if you haven't signed up yet, there is still time! I am looking forward to facilitating these sessions. More info here events.humanitix.com/embracing-ou...

I like caveats. Ironically they prove that everyone should be treated equally, even if they're cunts

A Mad King has usurped the power of Congress—which represents the American people. That is, he has seized power that belongs to you and me collectively. He has declared war without consultation with or approval from Congress. And with no imminent threat. This is a profound betrayal of the republic.

You have to go through Congress for anything resembling this type of war. Round up Massie and Paul types and have him removed. The people in this administration are on actual drugs and have insatiable bloodlust and bespoke mental illnesses. He has to go, and everybody with him.

A desperate dying man with unlimited power unrestrained thanks to an extremist party will gladly burn the world before he exits.
