This is a translation of a poem by Arnulf Øverland written in 1932 about WW2 and Hitler. - Dare not to sleep - I awoke one night from a disturbing dream; It felt as if a strange voice spoke earnestly, Low as a faint, subterranean stream. I arose and said: “What do you want of me?”

The “trickle down” economics was always about making people impoverished and desperate. Those who are overwhelmed don’t have the bandwidth to ask questions, control answers, so they can easily be manipulated.

Beyond disgusted by even more rape allegations against the President of the United States. "In total, more than 25 different women...have independently accused Donald Trump of rape, sexual assault, or other sexual misconduct." Report w/ new details: democrats-judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

Meanwhile, pro-democracy, pro-Europe protesters in Tbilisi, Georgia, are tonight nearing their 700th consecutive day of protest against the pro-Russian government. They haven't missed a single day in the last 23 months.

A thread in which the journalist tries to excuse the actions of one man who single-handedly terrorizes his own community for money. A man who is responsible for the torture of close to a hundred souls. Surely we can empathize with his plight. He’s just an ordinary man. youtu.be/uvli6ogZiqU

We are watching a coup d’état attempt unfold in real time in Brazil. I’m consumed by desperation.

Catholic priests: "We don’t rape children anymore." Also Catholic priests: "Let's pose with the most famous child rapist in history."

I thought he was going to drain the swamp?

Trump said he had to takeover Greenland to keep China and Russia out. And then he snuck Russia onto the North Slope. Literally just ... inviting them in. www.ft.com/content/e9cf...

🔥 OBAMA: “Trump should be on HGTV. He's got the White House looking like Saddam Hussein opened a Cheesecake Factory…. He’s clearly not focused on lowering prices for you.”

If they knew it was legal, they wouldn’t need pardons.

Trump fired the watchdogs. Then came a White House call about a company his son's firm had just bought into, a fraudster set free on his way to prison, and a tip line that leads somewhere he didn't mention on TV.

The question is: Why did Trump derail peace talks?

People seem very opposed to the idea of imprisoning billionaires for crimes against humanity but if we try it once and it feels right we should keep doing it

This is actually hilarious 😂 🤣 The man makes some valid points, tho Shark, at home just minding its business, then here comes this stranger

Quelle surprise 😒

Zelenskyy is in Oslo Norway today. He met with King Haakon. Our king looked very happy and relaxed, so much so the newspapers picked up on it. He’s always friendly but you can see his heart shines through. Best friends. 🇳🇴❤️🇺🇦 www.nettavisen.no/kjendis/bild...

Let’s just fill the bag of bullpoo he is serving with all the miscellaneous things magas fear, like woman contraceptive movement, pro-vaccination movement, pro-male-balding movement, pro-science movement etc.

Baby Anhelina and her mom Inna were killed by Russia yesterday. Anhelina was just over a year old. Her mom, Inna Mariukhna, was a primary school teacher. They were in the park in Nova Vodolaha, Kharkiv region, when a Russian drone attacked. Little Anhelina was killed in her stroller.

Two countries suffered higher per-capita casualties than the US in Afghanistan and though they weren't attacked on 9/11 they answered an ally's call for help. But now this pathetic drunkard is slandering their sacrifice and loyalty, and one of the countries is routinely threatened with US invasion.

The United States is delaying the delivery of Patriot interceptor missiles already paid for under a NATO-coordinated weapons purchasing initiative, President Volodymyr Zelensky said in an interview with Bloomberg on Oct. 18.

Poland’s Foreign Minister Sikorski: basically calling Trump a liar. “The US no longer finances this war since January of last year. In other words, for more than a year and a half. The US has not contributed a single cent to the defense of Ukraine. We are doing it. Europe.”

This is horrifying. I will never understand the reluctance towards single payer healthcare. We get the same healthcare as our King. Same hospital. Same doctors. But somehow that’s not good enough? The taxes aren’t higher than yours either. «Love thy neighbour». Americans: fudge that, I want 💰

Barack Obama just delivered a blistering rebuke of Trump's actions against Ilhan Omar. This is worth reading in full.

“I hope this fuels people’s internal fire to get out the early vote.” I chat with @ezralevin.bsky.social about META taking down the No Kings Instagram account. This demands an investigation. Listen to our whole conversation here: open.substack.com/pub/muellers...

The beautiful gift Ukrainians give Russia is that they can enjoy the magnificent views of sunset, all day, without it being a sunset. It gives them warmth and can be enjoyed from different angles, many places around Russia. 🫶🏻🥹They should be more grateful 🌟 Burn Russia burn!🔥

Elon Musk needs to be investigated and held accountable.

Everything in this story is incredible. What a read. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Donald Trump, a Russian-Israeli foreign asset linked to Jeffrey Epstein and occupying the US Presidency, continues to lie on behalf of the Kremlin and blames Ukraine’s President Zelenskyy for the devastation caused by Russia’s invasion:

No matter where you shop, you're getting screwed by Amazon. Amazon has found a way to make everything you buy - at Target, at a mom-and-pop shop, even direct from the manufacturer - more expensive. And they're not the only one: Expedia's done the same thing, but for hotel rooms.

Next he will sign an executive order to make rubles your currency, Russian your language and Putin your official President (he kinda already is), and call it Trump-dollars, Trump-american etc. He is insufferable.

Again, none of this affects the strikes inside Russia, which don't rely on Starlink. This purely betrays soldiers on the frontlines, including American volunteers, holding off Russian invaders right now in the most brutal trench warfare Europe's seen in a century. You don't hate these two enough.

Grifting off of cancer patients and survivors. There is no bottom

Graciousness in giving up the title

"The Scaramucci" is dead -- long live "the Zacharia"!

It surely will. You will also get the privilege to buy them out when it all implodes, so that they can be paid twice. 🫶🏻

He is unfit. In every sense of the term.

The goal of sane people must be to defund Elon Musk and get him as far away from politics as possible. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/defund-musk
