Just curious; I'm a veteran, and I'm disgusted by Trump's pimping of our armed forces for his parade, and attempting to make himself look "Mighty" and "Powerful." How many veterans out there feel the same way?

Also today -- I think if I can figure out how to do it, I'm going to move to Ukraine. That's a nation which represents all the wonderful characteristics that my homeland once embodied.

Something I find strange: White Christian Nationalists cower in fear at their certainty that communities of color are heavily armed and out for the retribution which they themselves seek. Yet -- Trump's Gestapo has YET to encounter armed resistance. Ain't all them po' folk got guns?

So true

Just to keep things in perspective, it was one year ago today… #USDemocracy

It is mind-boggling to me that I have gotten to this point. Capital punishment is truly reasonable.

I gotta ask once again --where are the GOOD guys with guns? If you give a good goddamn about the USA, you have a REAL problem with the current leadership. If you are a TRUE patriot -- do something about it.

Dear Democrats in congress: Your "friends across the aisle" are not friends, they are actively stabbing you, and the entire nation in the back.

Sixty years ago I discovered Phil Ochs's album "I Ain't Marchin' Any More". It is STILL highly recommended listening. Nothing that's happening is new, you know. Worse now, for sure -- but not new.

It’s sad that we must remind you of this!

I just really need everybody to understand that everything that’s happening in and to the global economy now (and all the businesses and people in it) is the entirely predictable result of the intentional decisions of one guy who doesn’t understand how the global economy works.
