The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll

This country needs a massive reckoning.
Start by arresting the President and locking him away forever.

"Systemic change is needed 'from the cradle to the grave' of plastic production, use, and disposal," said one expert. "Much more ambitious action from governments and industry transparency is needed to curb this growing global plastics public health crisis."
Lancet: Plastics Could Cost Humanity 83 Million Years of Healthy Life
A study published in the Lancet Planetary Health highlights how humanity's continued reliance on plastics—which are primarily derived from planet-heating fossil fuels—is expected to harm global health over the next couple of decades.

There's a ton of disinformation going around about elections.
Facts:
The federal government has no authority over elections per the Constitution.
Results are certified by States.
Even if lardass invoked Martial Law, Constitution would prevail.
President cannot suspend the Constitution, ever.

ICE is a danger to society.
ICE continues to kill American citizens and wreak havoc on our communities. How many more people need to be badly hurt, or brutally murdered for their domestic terrorism to end?
We must abolish ICE.
