Luigi Magione has terrorist charges against him. Terrorism - Intending to intimidate or coerce a civilian population. Intimidate a unite of government or government policies by violence and murder. I feel that definition applies much more to CEOs of healthcare companies.

Why is Mangione getting a terrorism charge? I can understand murder charges, and why aren't more people talking about this? ground.news/article/pros...

Why are 70+ year old politicians who have long been removed from the reality of the system they created for me before i was even born, one that is clearly failing the American people still deciding things for me?

WE ARE STILL IN THIS. Wipe your tears. This is the difficult business of hope and defying expectation. We do not give up. We run through the tape. Y’all aren’t allowed to throw in the towel until I do. 😉 Big breath. Locked in. Let’s do this.

I love the drone panic because its a reminder that despite all our technology and societal advancement we're never more than one unanswered question from reverting to peasants worried we'll make the stars mad

It seems rather hypocritical to say you want to end birthright citizenship when you’re basically allowing someone born in South Africa to be your co-president.

This kind of thought process is dangerous to the legitimate use of drones. You can use the same thought process to draw the conclusion that cell phones should be banned. This is the same justification they've been using to try to ban DJI drones in the US since 2018.

Ever since the disastrous Citizens United decision, our democracy has been on sale to the highest bidder. It's time to get Big Money out of politics and give power back to the American people.

It took four years longer than Trump planned, but the January 6th insurrection ultimately succeeded after all. This was due to three main reasons: the cowardice of feckless Republicans in Congress; the greed of all-powerful billionaires; and disinformation fed to voters by Fox News and social media.

In 1984, "party like it's 1999" was an double edged call to seek joy in the face of looming argmageddon in 2024, "party like it's 1999" is an escapist dream of slipping the JNCOs back on and staying up all night playing Goldeneye while drinking hard ice tea and smoking a pack of Marlboro Lights
