Artisan craftsman. American, but world citizen. I love family, Art, travel and multicultural democracy. OG skater punk. GenX girl dad & native Yinzer. 🖕fascists, religious zealots and dictators Good night Chesty, wherever you are

So rather than elect a milquetoast democratic socialist, they'd rather throw the election to MAGA? That speaks volumes about who really controls the Democratic Party. I am sick of GOP-lite and want a real progressive party. How about you?

"A body that has historically held the hemisphere’s most authoritarian governments to account will now scrutinize the United States," write Thomas Becker and Antonio Romanucci. "It may be our last chance to stop the backsliding that threatens our democracy."

We are US civil rights lawyers. Trump’s policies have driven us to seek justice internationally | Thomas Becker and Antonio Romanucci

On Tuesday, a human rights commission will hold an extraordinary hearing over the administration’s alleged attacks on protesters, journalists and others

The stupidest part is that these weapons systems keep failing, and any commander worth his salt would have stopped wasting extremely expensive ordinance on a battlefield that has made them obsolete. But, you know, the incompetent cronyism will continue to waste billions, exactly as Iran planned

Cool, cool. We’re basically out of ATACMS and PrSM, and we used half our *global* TLAM supply… all for the Strait of Hormuz to still be closed?

Every aspect of our lives is affected by oligarchs: healthcare, media, job, housing, economy, politics, food, etc. According to data from the Forbes World's Billionaires List, there are 49 U.S. billionaires who made their fortunes in the healthcare industry.

Reconstruction was a scary time for white people, apparently. /s Wimington, NC, black business district was razed by white mobs in November, 1898. We didn't learn about this in school. "a munincipal level coup d'etat" that black business owners were never compensated for. Same in other states.

#BLM OTD 1919 days of violence targeting Black Chicago communities ended when the National Gurard intervened. After a week of gunfire, beatings & burnings, 23 Black people & 15 white people had been killed, 537 injured & 1,000 Black families left homeless. #BlackAmericanHistoryIsAmericanHistory

Other than losing the executive and both branches of Congress, lousy messaging, uninspiring candidates, putting up zero fight against Trump and the oligarchs and taking gobs of AIPAC cash, I can’t think of any reasons to not get 100% behind establishment democrats.

These women are being held in the Brasile South Louisiana I.C.E. Processing Facility.🚨 Some have been there for months, separated from their families. One woman was recently put in solitary confinement for releasing a prior video. Multiple reports of abuse from male #ICE agents. Spread the word.

Hey y'all know that "Kassandra" account that shows up whenever you mention anyone Jewish or AIPAC in Michigan. Well I played coy with 'Him' on Twitter for a few weeks. Yes, Kassandra is actually Kurt, meaning it's a man pretending to be a woman who hates Jews. Oh it gets better

Measles and explosive shits? War and inflation? Gestapo and extrajudicial killings? Stealing public funds and consistently violating the Congressional power over budget? Weaponizing DoJ to make it a laughingstock fascist tool? Cronyism? War crimes? Help us out here. What are the good parts?
