“What kind of man would cheat at this golf?” 😂

Bill Clinton “With the help of lifetime appointees to the Supreme Court and a compliant Congress, they have weaponized government to settle personal scores, prosecute enemies, stamp out free speech, and made the federal government a new profit center for themselves and their allies”

Stock trades by President. The blatant corruption is just staggering

In a sane world (an alt reality) today's dissents would sufficient to warrant Thomas, Gorsuch and Alito's impeachment and removal from office. If you defy the plain words, meaning, intent, history, precedent of a black letter constitutional injunction u are abusing your power and should be removed.

Hunter speaks! Dems need to listen. 🙌🔥

The President just made thousands of stock trades — and then he turned around and made decisions that shifted those companies’ bottom lines. It's corrupt, and we need to end it.

1/6 I have to laugh a bit when I hear people call Sanders a "Socialist." Mainly because they have no idea what Socialism is and think of Russia. That's Marxism-Leninism Socialism; it all belongs to the government. Then there is another reality that the American people don't seem to understand:

This Aussie is spot on, it will take years or decades to get rid of capitalism from the government. It’s not just Trump, it’s everything behind him, oligarchs, money, corruption, corporations etc. How can we fix this?

President Obama: “We pulled it off without firing a missile. We got 97% of their enriched uranium out. There’s no dispute that it worked and we didn’t have to kill a whole bunch of people or shut down the Strait of Hormuz.”

Every weakness in our political system – the Electoral College, the makeup of the Senate, lifetime terms for the Supreme Court, the acceptance of gerrymandering – has been weaponized by the fascists to steal our government from us.

My colleague Mr. Sterling reminds me that while I may drop into fond geriatric nostalgia at the drop of a pink plastic carabiner clip, the global street finding its own military uses for user-operated drones has very dire potential.

My favorite MLO cover ever, by Jon Gray/gray318
