The USA is what it has always been and was built from the beginning to be, but many generations of the people have fought to expand the protections and liberties promised in the Constitution (& Declaration of Independence.) It is our turn.

The Supreme Court created Super Citizens in 2010. The government has been serving them exclusively since then.

The Supreme Court voided our constitutionally guaranteed democratic republic on July 1, 2024 replacing it with serial authoritarianism.

I did not consent to this form of government.

President Donald Trump’s vision for a missile defense system dubbed the Golden Dome may be coming closer to fruition, as the Pentagon is taking offers for fulfilling a contract pegged at $151 billion.

$151 billion missile defense program contract has drawn lots of interest, DOD solicitation shows

SHIELD would include ground- and space-based systems, satellites and weapons capable of detecting and destroying missiles fired at the U.S. homeland.

“Golden Dome”: $151 billion
ICE: $175 billion
Billionaire tax breaks: $3 trillion

Who’s going to pay for these projects?

Tariffs and taxes on the bottom 90% of Americans!

It’s way past time for Mike Johnson to stop the political games and seat Adelita without delay. Today, my office is sending a letter to Speaker Johnson demanding he do so.

Well, according to #Christiban, women are 2nd class citizens. They're men's property (Gen 2:18, Ex 20:17, 21:22, Deu 5:21) and as hopelessly inferior to men as men are to God, the Son (1 Cor 11:3,7, Eph 5:22-24). They are not allowed to lead (1 Tim 2:11-14)!

Basically what little Mikey is saying is that women are 2nd class citizens. Any crimes committed against women, like those in the trump-Epstein Files, take a backseat to anything Mikey & the maga klan deem more important. Disgusting diminutive creep.

Q: This has been reported for a while. Cory Mills was accused of beating a girlfriend in his DC apt. Are you concerned about these allegations?

JOHNSON: You have to ask Rep. Mills about that. He's been a faithful colleague. I don't know the details. Let's talk about things that are really serious

With respect, Gov Newsom, it is time that all states recognize that the SCOTUS supermajority violated their vows to the Constitution July 1, 2024, nullifying it retroactively, simultaneously nullifying the fed gov’s authority to govern, dissolving the Union.

Prepare to end federal withholding.

The American people deserve a public health system that puts science before politics.

That's why California and 14 other governors are joining forces to launch the Governors Public Health Alliance to protect communities and guarantee decisions are rooted in data and health.
