You realize it’s the World Cup right? As in non-white players from across the world will have to travel here and be subjected to Nazi pogroms.

For 9 months we've been told the military won't willingly enjoin this fascist regime and for 9 months we've seen them holler and cheer for each and every authoritarian speech.
Trump to the Navy: "We have to take care of this little gnat that's on our shoulder called the Democrats."

If you were concerned about Kimmel, here's another for you…

Journalist Mario Guevara has been detained for 100+ days, ironically arrested as he reported on a "No Kings" protest.

The Trump-Vance admin just issued an order of final removal, to send him to El Salvador—where he fled from 21 years ago.

whoa. Every single one of the Sinclair advert buyers on this list is automotive or automotive related (insurance). That is one aspect of the power in our society held by car companies that I haven't seen studied enough.
For those in #Sinclair and #Nexstar markets.... #Boycott the advertisers!! After all, Disney got the message that way! There may be some you can’t, but there are some you can!
This is exactly why communists made such huge gains during the dust bowl/Great Depression. They actually stand for something and are willing to fight to bring change

Larry Ellison, founder of Oracle, is a right wing tech oligarch who now controls Paramount, which includes CBS.

He's rumoured to be attempting to acquire Warner Brothers.

The Whitehouse also arranged for him to acquire TikTok US.

This gets a paragraph, if that, in high school US history.
Most Americans don’t know that the U.S. violently colonized the Philippines in 1898, through 1946. An estimated 600k Filipinos were killed in the years after U.S. annexation, to crush resistance to colonial rule.
Maria Ressa going on the Daily Show and being like, "we tried to warn you [colonizers] this shit you created is bad and self-destructive [but you never listen brown people and women]" is basically the story of "western civilization" in a nutshell

1. Authorities, notably, did not reveal WHY Tyler Robinson hated Charlie Kirk.

They just said that he hated him and had gotten more political in recent years.

A reminder that Charlie was hated by a wide variety of people, including Neo-Nazis who believed he was a tool for Israel and Jews.
Authorities in Utah have released the booking photo of Tyler Robinson, the 22-year-old suspect who was arrested late last night in the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

The asymmetrical media response to political violence in America is, in itself, one of the most important contributing factors to how we arrived at this place of escalating political violence.

Don’t bother having empathy for Charlie Kirk. He literally didn’t believe in the concept of empathy.

In his own words: “I think empathy is a made up New Age term that does a lot of damage."

“You will never live in a society where you won’t have a single gun death. That is nonsense. It’s drivel. It’s worth it to have some gun deaths every single year so that we have the 2nd Amendment to protect our other God-given rights. That’s a prudent deal. It’s rational.”

The richest 100 billionaires in the U.S. have a net worth totaling $3.86 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is collectively worth $4 trillion.

Read that back.

Folks, this is what oligarchy looks like.
