Honestly.... at this point, how is it possible to be shocked at anything tRump does?πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

Americans in Trump voting areas need this information IN PERSON. They need face-to-face human leadership. Please follow the example of Senator Sanders and have Dem electeds started meeting WITH their constituents at in-person Town halls. www.youtube.com/live/dRonB7G...

Yeah ..... I don't know. The part of me who believes in non-violence says "yes we must". Sadly - the trust has been obliterated. It's more than being lied to, those brain-washed by their religion are lied to - but they can't do logic at all. They are literally part of a cult. 🀷

tRump and his Naze Posse KNOW that. It's an intentional feature of their policies. 🀷

If/when the EU builds up their military to the point where America is irrelevant, it'll crush our "influence" in the world. And I'm all good with that. Our never-ended lust for what other countries have needs to be put in check.
comment in response to post
100% this. Can go for rich country too. America has a long, violent history of using our wealth and military might to take control of resources that are NOT ours to have.
comment in response to post
Well the ONE thing you can do as an "influencer" is to stay on topic and keep your public remarks directly focused on Ukraine's right to sovereignty and protecting THEIR territory. πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

Re: If Zelensky gets what he wants, who benefits the most ? Exactly what is your point. * Russia invaded Ukraine * For sake of sovereignty alone, Russia needs to GET OUT OF Ukraine What do Ukrainian natural resources have to do wit respecting a nation's sovereignty? πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

At some point the "find out" part of #FAFO is going to land in HIS lap. And with his level of arrogance, it ain't going to be pretty. πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

Now is a good time to remind the gentle readers that the New York Post endorsed tRump.πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

Thank you for the kind words. But the story is from someone else's Reddit Post. It is very sad. The pain of what they are enduring is awful. What makes it worse is that it us intentional cruelty. πŸ˜₯

Lindsey Graham has about as much ability to "turn" as a bowl of jello sitting on a hot sunny side walk, on a 90 degree day.🀷
comment in response to post
JD Vance and the Republicans believe (very strongly) that women shouldn't have the right to: * Vote * Make decisions about their own bodies * Property or financial resources in their name and under their control. We are baby-making machines and that is it.🀷

It can be both. We can be worried about BOTH his blatant lies AND his petulant toddler instincts.πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

EVERYONE knows tRump lies everytime he opens his mouth. Even Hannity. If Hannity had ANY sense of patriotism, he would have asked, "Mr. Trump, why can't you do a televised interview without president Musk babysitting you?"πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

From my feed: * AOC out protesting WITH THE PEOPLE * Jeffries feebly objecting on social media In this moment, leadership requires BOLDLY standing with We The People.πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

Re: We are using every tool available to us to stop them. Are strongly worded posts and objections the only tools you have? Because, as a taxpayer, all I see is feckless posturing from Dem "leadership".πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

In the grand scheme of American politics, exposure to hit commercials is the least if what stresses me (and any other sane American).🫀

It's not baffling at all. In fact the author explains it quite concisely: ===== .... Maybe if Democratic leaders pretended Elon Musk was a 22-year-old Palestinian from Dearborn, Michigan, they’d show more fight.πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

They do not have the capacity for this moment because they have been part of the problem for decades.πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ We need once-in-a-generation leadership... and the chances of it surfacing from the political class are near 0.🫀

Oh put up or shut up. Unlike the MAGA cult, everyone else needs: * Actual data & evidence * Which is NOT tampered with * And is verifiable by 3rd party experts Otherwise your assertion is B.S.πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

Well... when your goal is to monetize everything under the sun, it only makes sense. I mean think of all the natural resources they can sell harvesting rights for.πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

@godpod.bsky.social you didn't get the memo.πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ Far too many 'mericans send up their "thoughts and prayers" to you. And then you're supposed to wave your magic wand, send in the miracle and make it all better. πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

THANK YOU SO MUCH. From the depths of my American heart I thank you. I grew up during the Civil Rights/Vietnam War era. Your comments about inheritance are spot-on. They brought tears to my eyes. Please challenge Dem leaders to show up the way you did today. We NEED them with the people. ❀️
