At this point Israeli government-backed mobs assaulting journalists in the West Bank is a routine occurrence. It belies any claim that the U.S. promotes democracy by financing the army that stands by and allows these attacks to occur.

The accounting is in: In Oregon there are 111 data centers. The TOTAL number of people employed at data centers is just 2,630, or 0.1% of the labor force. Those 100 data centers consumer 23% of all electricity used in Oregon. Meanwhile, electricity rates skyrocket as more centers are built.

ICE killed a Colombian man. He was legally authorized to work. His wife and 3-year-old daughter were in the car when ICE fired at least 5 times. He was not their target. Agents wore no body cameras. This is fascism. Prepare: PAXIS.app Keep it free: GoFundMe.com/PAXIS

Lindsey Graham was a simple, tragic man to understand. He lacked a moral core. The great empty spaces of his life were filled with an insatiable need for “relevance.” He found it as a cast member in the most malignant reality show ever made. steveschmidt.substack.com/p/lindsey-kn...

"Originalism has never meant being chained to the original words. That is a childish misunderstanding... Real originalism means asking what the Founders would have wanted if they had lived long enough to become furious about anchor babies."

I don’t know man, who is “the Democratic Party” if it’s not the voters?Democratic voters choose candidates, not party leaders. And party leaders need to listen to what voters are telling us - and right now they are demanding our party be bolder.
I say this with no ill will or animosity: if you hate the Democratic Party, then please don’t run for our nomination. Don’t use our resources. Don’t rely on our volunteers. Don’t use our infrastructure. Don’t ask Democrats to invest their time, money, and energy in your campaign.

Trump doesn’t literally decide who gets the money. But everyone on the commission is appointed by the AG, and can be removed by Trump *at any time*. It’s a machine to reward his allies. I promise you, not one dollar will go to anyone he doesn’t deem worthy of getting rich at your expense.

Dr. David Morens - who is 78 years old and served his country for nearly 50 years - used Gmail, which he shouldn't have done. However, "[he] was stripped and handcuffed [by] a half-dozen federal agents carrying guns and wearing tactical gear [..] and jailed". www.science.org/content/arti...

Imagine the worst landlord you ever had. Then, make it worse. The landlord sells off the wood floor in your dining room, turns a herd of cattle loose on your front lawn and digs up your back yard looking for oil. Now, say hello to Trump’s Bureau of Land Management.

He wasn't just an asylum seeker. Paktyawal was an Afghan special forces soldier who worked with the U.S. Army's 3rd Special Forces Group. He was evacuated on August 30, 2021, entered the U.S. legally and had a pending case with a work permit and social security number. Killed by ICE maggots.

To be clear: the SAVE Act does not simply require the identification voting ALREADY requires. It demands proof of CITIZENSHIP— a birth certificate with a name that matches yours now (bye, bye, married women), or a passport— both of which are expensive and take a long time to obtain.
Sen. Hagerty: "We have to show ID for almost everything we do here in America. I do not understand why exercising one of our most precious rights as Americans is not one of those issues that Democrats can support."
