Israel is no better than the Nazis. I say this because there were four key pillars of the Nazi program: Pillar #1: Displace Pillar #2: Forced Labor Pillar #3: Starvation Pillar #4: Exterminate All but #2 can describe what is happening today in Gaza. If more proof needed…

A new survey of 1,000 American adults found that the strongest supporters of transgender sports bans are not the people who admire women most: they are the people who hold the most hostile views about women. www.helenwebberley.com/news/transge...

helenwebberley.comAre transgender sports bans really about protecting women? | Dr Helen WebberleyThe data says no. Those most hostile to women are most in favour of banning trans athletes.

Trump is straight up saying during speeches that he wants white people coming to the country but not black. I don’t know what else people need to see.

It’s never been more clear that racism is a scam perpetrated by wealthy elites to convince working people to blame someone other than the wealthy elite.

🔥 @charlesmblow.bsky.social : “The media is getting this wrong… The Muslim Brotherhood is ~100 years old, Trump just classified them as terrorists this year. 0 terrorist attacks on 🇺🇸 soil — Trump’s dad was arrested at a Klan rally, is he responsible for his dad’s actions?”

Come on @slate.com, the 12 year old Acton was removed and the father fled a rape charge and court docs support. She did not just “accuse”. This is journalist malpractice “Acton’s estranged mother, who stayed married to a man whom the Democrat accused of sexually abusing her as a child”

I don’t care which side of the political spectrum you fall, but If this doesn’t make your blood boil as a citizen, I’m at a loss. It’s 1 person 1 vote; not $$$$ makes your 1 vote count multiple times more. No one should be able to buy our government

GM just announced the biggest stock buyback in automotive industry history. Instead of investing in their workers or new product lines, GM executives are robbing from the future to pay themselves and their shareholders today. Stock buybacks should be illegal.

Roughly 6 in 10 Americans believe that President Trump is profiting off the presidency in unethical or illegal ways. Meanwhile, just over half of Americans believe that Trump has prioritized his own financial interests "a lot" since returning to office.

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage. And we certainly wouldn't have public executions. The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.” It's about cruelty.

We went from sanctioning Russian oil to buying it in three weeks. Instead of ending his disastrous war in Iran, Trump is now funding Russia's war in Ukraine. We used to hold dictators and autocrats accountable. Now our president negotiated a deal to fund Putin's unjust war.

4/ Fernando Vasquez, an 18-year-old citizen, was on break from work when agents chased and handcuffed him, then put him in their truck. After realizing their mistake, the agents left the teen alone in the woods, with no way to get home. Then they threw his ID out of the truck.

Ro's right. Newsom needs the billionaires to fund his presidential campaign. So he's willing to let millions of Californians lose their healthcare just so 250 billionaires don't have to pay a tax they won't even notice. Vote YES on Prop 40, NO on Prop 41 and Prop 42.

The white evangelical movement split in the 1970s so those who hated civil rights, especially for women, could boost right-wing Republicans. Talarico is reclaiming the movement for the others, and it is a very different thing indeed. Jimmy Carter v. Jerry Falwell.

25 kids in one Texas courtroom. 15 with no lawyer. The youngest was 3. One of them, 13-year-old Angel, broke down crying: "I have no one. I have nothing." And it's happening to kids in immigration courts across the country. It's evil.

cnn.comInside the Texas courtroom where toddlers face immigration judges | CNN PoliticsMigrant children as young as 2 are showing up at immigration courts nationwide, many without attorneys, to try make their case to stay in the US and avoid deportation.

This is incredible coming from folks like Theo Von. He’s part of the podcasting bros that swung hard towards Trump and realize (?) that they were lied to.
