Every BRICS nation, in their deal to usurp the USD, got to pick a nation or military goal, imo, as part of the deal. This is what Iran got. Trump was always meant to betray Israel for getting him elected Iran Contra style. Whether Bibi is in on it too... idk

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022. That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations. So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?

It’s not illegal for a United States Senator to go to a public press conference and ask questions about your constituents safety. It's our job.

In case anyone is wondering, being placed in handcuffs and put on the ground is being detained. No reasonable person in handcuffs would assume they are free to leave.

Boebert: What we’re seeing in LA is an insurrection Pritzker: You don’t know understand what insurrection is. It is outrageous that you are asking that when you are the one condoning the pardoning of people that attacked police.

It is actually nuts that even when the NYC political establishment was presented with a broad field of talented candidates w/ many ideas, in a time of generational change & anti-corruption, they STILL chose to line up behind scandal-ridden Andrew Cuomo. It’s cowardice.

Sometimes I think the “this is just a distraction” crowd just can’t handle the chaos, and that’s their way of cooping. But this is our reality. All of it. We don’t get to pick one crisis at a time. Walk and chew gum.

W.E.B. Du Bois on Robert E. Lee: “Either he knew what slavery meant when he helped maim and murder thousands in its defense, or he did not. If he did not he was a fool. If he did, Robert Lee was a traitor and a rebel–not indeed to his country, but to humanity and humanity’s God.”

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.
