Each day, we learn of Israel’s theft of yet another slice of Palestine. Piece by piece, acre by acre, the Palestinian nation has been seized by Israeli offensive forces and carved up by Zionist colonizers in contravention of all treaties, accords, “peace” agreements and the like.

If Donald Trump rates his work to bring down prices in our current economy A+++++ god only knows what an “F” rating would look like. I don’t know what reality that invalid asshole is living in but it certainly isn’t the one that all of us are dealing with right now!

Trump is an indecent man. His words and actions violate our values as Americans and as human beings. The depravity is accumulating—week after week—and if we accept it, if we shrug, if we say “that’s just Trump,” we bind ourselves to it. We make it ours.
