MASSIE: “Iran is not Venezuela. The Ayatollah was not a president. He was a religious leader… 🇺🇸 & 🇮🇱 turned him into a martyr, expended billions, 6 🇺🇸 families must now lay to rest their sons & daughters. And for what? This administration can't even give us a straight answer.”

“Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed...This is not a way of life...it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron.” -Dwight Eisenhower 1953

"The things that will DESTROY US are: POLITICS WITHOUT PRINCIPLES; PLEASURE WITHOUT CONSCIENCE; WEALTH WITHOUT WORK; knowledge without character; BUSINESS WITHOUT MORALITY; SCIENCE WITHOUT HUMANITY; and worship without sacrifice." ~ Mahatma Gandhi

The glibness. The indifference. The carelessness. The utter lack of planning for a war against a country of 90M. The sickness of a man who acts on whim that will kill thousands not hundreds. The horror of a regime that enables this sickness. The broken body politic that votes in such malignancy.

The existence of the Trump Shitshow and his maganut base are a direct result of the rise in the 1990s of corporate Democrats who colluded with the fascist wing of Republicans. After Democrats defeat Trump's fascists in Congress, the corporate Democrat leadership MUST GO! Support REAL Democrats!

They want this to be partisan, but it’s not. Trump’s name shows up, Bill Clinton’s name shows up, Hillary’s orbit shows up. Epstein moved in elite circles across both parties. If files are missing, protect nobody. Release everything.

If Democrats want to regain working people, they must disavow Big Money. They must hammer economic populism — and have a laser focus on the cost of living crisis in America. There’s no way the party can speak for or represent the working class in America if it's beholden to corporate interests.

The King’s brother and a Lord have both been arrested by British police within the past week on suspicion of misconduct in public office. This is how a functioning democracy responds to evidence of criminal activity in the Epstein files. Title is irrelevant. No immunity. Equality under the law.

Holy shit. A lot of people have suggested this, but I don’t think Lieu would make the allegation unless he had seen some evidence.

“I’ve never protested before - but I just watched 4th & 5th grade kids run away from our own government.” 😕🇺🇸💔 (From @crindivisible.bsky.social )

I knew I saw this somewhere before. Funny that it’s almost exactly what’s actually happening now.

Bernie Sanders is right. We need Medicare For All.

The Super Bowl halftime show featuring Bad Bunny is expected to take place between 8:00 and 8:30 p.m. ET. The alternate halftime show by Turning Point USA featuring Kid Rock is expected to take place between 1930 and 1932.

Luttig: It doesn’t matter what the Supreme Court does from this point forward. For two years, the Supreme Court has authorized the absolute lawlessness and unconstitutional activity of this president.

I hope lawyers, secretaries of state, and state attorneys general are preparing for what’s coming.

Vive la France!

Love this!!!!!

Sen Chris Murphy: A UAE investor secretly gave Trump 187 million dollars and his top Middle East envoy 31 million dollars. And then Trump gave that investor access to sensitive defense technology that broke decades of national security precedent..

The fact that Israel sent Republicans a fortune in donor money right after the Epstein files were released, is telling. Hush money? Keep the reps in line?? Barf. Cut the cord to Russia and Israel.

The President of the United States is compromised. It is time for Congress to act. Now!

Raping children is far worse than illegal immigration.

👇👇👇👇

Border Patrol agents illegally smashed through the glass door of a locked auto body shop, without a warrant, to detain the shop owner and an employee, in West Valley City, Utah. Yes, agents are violating the Constitution all over the country, not just in Minnesota.

Murphy on Fox News Sunday: "I mean -- c'mon. We're still pretending that ICE is going after dangerous people? They aren't. What is happening in Minnesota right now is a dystopia. ICE is teargassing elementary schools, it is disappearing legal residents into cars, it is murdering American citizens."

ICE is hunting children and committing terrorism. The GOP are protecting rapists and pedophiles. So much for "family values."

Florida's next governor:

We did not properly punish the confederates. We did not properly punish the insurrectionists on January 6th. We have to punish ICE. They can’t be allowed to slink back into their communities quietly. Expose them. Arrest them. Convict them. Imprison them.

NEW: Pam Bondi sends letter to Minnesota saying ICE will leave, if Tim Walz just hands over their voter database to Trump. It was never about immigration. Exactly is that enough proof to go to court and stop these f**king Domestic Terrorists??

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

NEW VIDEO: this appears to be the footage from the woman in the pink coat.

We need our next FDR. Only way to go is progressive left. Call it what u will. I'm not afraid of words. Democratic Socialism. I said it. "Socialism". Oh my. The horror of the word we have been programmed to fear. Socialism = societal combined resources for the better good.

"Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them." — Frank Herbert, Dune

Wow -- Fanone coughs "go fuck yourself" to Trey Nehls as Nehls blames Capitol Police leadership for January 6

What we already knew, and what Jack Smith confirms, is that Trump is guilty of sedition, treason, incitement of violence, incitement of insurrection, an attempted coup, obstruction of justice, fraud, and election tampering. Trump remains ineligible to hold office and should be imprisoned.

I’m the eyes of God there is precious little to distinguish us.

Mark Carney's speech is now only the second most acute analysis of where the world is at right now:

Jennings: Let's not get our knickers in a twist here McGowan: Why are you talking like that? It's insane. Your attitude is just horrifying…

"Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly." —MLK Jr.

Danish Parliament Deputy Speaker Lars-Christian Brask: "If I could come with some advice, it would be for the Senate & House to start to take control of political power in America because with this erratic & mad behaviour, you have to ask the question, is the President capable of running the US?"

“I just had a conversation with my dad who has been a citizen here for 30+ years - he doesn’t feel welcome or safe here in 🇺🇸 anymore. He’s going back to Chile.” (H/T @voteinorout.bsky.social )

PSA: If Bill Kristol can say this dems should be able to say it

If ya don't want political reactions in your factory Don't bring politicians into your factory Seems really simple
