We’re bombing Houthis. Israel is bombing Iran & Gaza. Russia is bombing Ukraine. We’re threatening Greenland. When is all this peace & tranquility going to happen that Trump promised us he would accomplish on Day 1 because everyone around the world was supposedly afraid of him?

Senators are ELECTED to be a VOICE for their constituents. What happens when that voice is stifled, thrown to the ground, and handcuffed like Senator Padilla was? We have a democracy, but we can lose that democracy. I took to the Senate floor to speak out—I hope you'll join me.

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.”

Pretty much all of us covering the protests over the last week have gotten targeted by police in some manner: Shot at with "less-lethals", illegal searches, harassment, forced to disperse despite penal code 409.7, detainment, etc.

Everyone I knew who covered disinformation got laid off, their bosses got bullied into firing them, or they changed their beats from actual Nazi harassment campaigns. It cannot be stressed the damage the paid-for Substack “free speech” guys did in the service of fascism and against real free speech.
