There is no greater single imperative right now than removing Donald J. Trump as President of the United States. He is the clearest, most immediate, and most powerful danger to our biosphere, our health, our welfare, our safety, our privacy, our lives, and our freedom in the world today.

Netanyahu wouldn't have accepted this deal from Biden, but some commentators don't seem to realize that this makes Biden's deference to him all the more damning. He was obviously in the tank for Trump! So why didn't Biden play hardball?

If the only thing that's fully funded by the government is the police. Then you live in a police state. That's just how numbers work. It's fair to judge a society by how it chooses to allocate resources.

Now with #AltText

A black background has white text at the top that says “amphifa.” Two flags over each other, common antifa flags, have a black flag and a green one. An image of a green frog facing left with a blue ascot sits on the black flag. Circling the flags is the text, “amphibians against fascism.”

I like how the news will be like “while the President claiming Portland was ruled by a giant skeleton named Mr Nibbles is not strictly true, it does speak to the anxiety of many Americans”

Trump announces he's putting a bajillion percent tariff on China

It has just been learned that China has taken an extraordinarily aggressive position on Trade in sending an extremely hostile letter to the World, stating that they were going to, effective November 1st, 2025, impose large scale Export Controls on virtually every product they make, and some not even made by them. This affects ALL Countries, without exception, and was obviously a plan devised by them years ago. It is absolutely unheard of in International Trade, and a moral disgrace in dealing with other Nations.

Based on the fact that China has taken this unprecedented position, and speaking only for the U.S.A., and not other Nations who were similarly threatened, starting November 1st, 2025 (or sooner, depending on any further actions or changes taken by China), the United States of America will impose a Tariff of 100% on China, over and above any Tariff that they are currently paying. Also on November 1st, we will impose Export Controls on any and all critical software.

It is impossible to believe that China would have taken such an action, but they have, and the rest is History. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

DONALD J. TRUMP
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

On the 18th we need to be vigilant for increased violence and provocation by both law enforcement and counter-protestors, both of which will be used to try to justify more violence and authoritarianism.

They are not planning "a violent crackdown" on 10.18. What they are doing is sending a signal to their shock troops to try to cause havoc. But those shock troops will be vastly outnumbered. Go out and protest freely. Do not be cowed.

Johnson's managed to make the shutdown about Epstein, since he's using it as an excuse not to seat Grijalva. That's harming the whole caucus. why do it?

and the answer is: it's what trump wants. and Johnson runs the house by just doing what trump wants.
