Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable -JFK Memento Mori - Memento Vivere

“Did Mitch win his primary?” “No, sir. He’s still dead.” “How about Lindsey?” “He’s still dead too, sir.” “At least Amir Hassan won, right?” “No, sir. He lost to the guy who dropped out last month.” “The Mexicans only gave us one good word, and that’s siesta. Very few people know that.”

Folks, Trump and his Republican enabler’s are going to try every trick in the book to cheat in the midterms just like they did in Tarrant County, TX where they tried to close half of the polling locations for the midterms. Stay loud📢 and focused👀 Lets get a #BlueWaveIn90Days

Something real is happening in rural Iowa. Voters who backed Ernst, Grassley, & Trump are turning out for Josh Turek because they’ve finally had enough. That’s not a fluke, that’s a movement building right in front of us, and we’ve got 90 days to keep it growing. #BlueWaveIn90Days

When your party leader is a president with historically low approval ratings, who has raised prices through tariffs and wars, uses disaster relief and science grants to punish states that didn’t vote for him, and has agents shooting people in the streets, this is what you do.

A gracious concession: “I want to congratulate Abdul El-Sayed on winning the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate. He is a doctor, a community health official, a Rhodes Scholar, and a dedicated Michigander. I am proud to offer my support as he takes on Mike Rogers in the general election…

Donald Trump told reporters he feels "badly" for Max Miller, a Republican congressman accused of abusing his wife, and hopes Miller can "work it out." The only thing less surprising than a Republican politician abusing his wife is Donald Trump empathizing with the abuser.

My column on how capital becomes a death cult. Faced with a choice between profit and human life, the radical right chooses profit. Then it tries to persuade us that mass death is what we want. It's the new phase of climate denial: accept your fate, earthlings. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Murderous heat, an endangered food supply, decimated landscapes: embrace the Mediterranean life | George Monbiot

As climate disaster stares us in the face, the radical right says ‘Embrace the Mediterranean life’. Embrace death, more like it, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

The left: we want the Epstein files The right: we want the Epstein files The center: we want the Epstein files Trump: best I can do for you is Fauci’s diary, some lies about the reflecting pool, and a failed war in Iran

First it was Iran to push the Epstein files off the front page. Then, when the Iran war turned into a fiasco, it was back to the 2020 election and Covid. Every crisis needs a new distraction.

The fuss so many Republicans in D.C. make about the LGBTQ community is resentment. They resent people brave enough to live openly…while they keep their own desires hidden, terrified of what colleagues and constituents would do if they knew. Republicans…you KNOW who you are. We do, too.
