One of the unacknowledged advantages of this awful era is that it's revealing for all to see the putrid connections between great wealth and great power.
The intentions of the oligarchs are fully exposed and more blatant than ever.
But remember: We outnumber the oligarchs.

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.

Honestly it's more than a little frustrating that a prominent Israeli politician just told one of the most hawkish Israeli media publications that the United States dictates Isrseli strikes in an ongoing genocide and it is getting absolutely zero attention.

the actual story here, which the media never talks about, is that police in this country have become a discrete right-wing political operation. the story isn't about cops leaving (they're lying about that), it's about the police trying to exert influence over elections.

Help Kerry get a medical service pupper!!
ok confession time
I’ve been in the ICU for most of the last week & I’m struggling so so so hard
the doctor has suggested I
get a dog to help me, but I cannot afford the cost of a hypoallergenic dog, let alone the cost of a service dog
do we think this is even worth the attempt to fundraise? y/n

Just something for advertisers to consider:
Over a decade ago, I sat down to stream a show when streaming was still somewhat new, and it started with a few-second blurb that said "This program is brought to you ad-free by Visa." And there were no other ads.
I *still* think about that.

I'll put this marker down now: if we go into a shutdown and Dems actually hold the line and don't immediately cave, their poll numbers will go up
90% of the reason their numbers are so low with non-Rs is they've managed exactly zero concrete opposition so far

"Dems will get blamed for a shutdown" as opposed to what, all the friendly coverage and positive credit they'd get for caving yet again? This whole premise is built on a delusion about what the alternative is. There's no cowering in the corner and being so inoffensive they won't still attack you.

I hope my LDS friends and neighbors will join me in demanding legislative action putting preventive safeguards on firearm ownership and possession.
