Throughout recorded history
Organized Religion is most often a parallel government, a favorite tool of would-be enslavers. Its sole purpose is to control the people and capture all that they possess by destroying their autonomy, their rights, and their self governance.

VIRGINIA CALLER: “As a Republican, I'm very disappointed in my party, and I'm very disappointed in you… I am begging you to pass this legislation. My kids could die... the audacity of someone who makes 6 figures a year to do this to military families is insane.” #TrumpShutdown

This.
We really should work on our public education once we get this shit straightened out.
Also, get religion out of education and politics.
Tax the churches, if they break the rules, confiscate everything they own as well as that of the top 5 to 25 movers and shakers of the organization.

No one is above the law.
It's time these "feds" found out that they work for the civilians and "just following orders" won't cut it.

It was their trial run of defiance. How will the authorities respond? It must be swift and unrelenting.

A WGN video producer was handcuffed and taken into custody by federal agents on Friday morning while documenting the arrest of a Latino man, and one legal analyst warned the move defied a court order.

This is the best chance we’ve had to elect a Democratic Florida Governor in the last 30 years. It’s time for us to join together and win next November.

It was a pleasure to speak at the @claycountydems.bsky.social earlier this week and share our vision for Florida’s future.

🤨 What do they call it when someone keeps doing the same thing over and over, but expects a result that is different from the first six times?

Insane BumbDunny, perhaps?

Little Free Anti-ICE Libraries: yesterday multiple people were abducted by ICE in my Chicago neighborhood (Avondale). This morning I added 40 ICE alert whistles to three different LFLs, including one box that is about a block from one of the kidnappings. I have ordered 700 whistles.

Bright orange individually packaged whistles, stapled to English and Spanish literature designed by Pilson Arts Community House in Chicago. They are placed inside a little free library in my neighborhood: Avondale in Chicago.

In direct contrast to coverage from right-wing media, Portland residents and officials have emphasized that it's actually federal agents who have been engaging in “violent tactics” against protesters.

Right-wing media say Portland is a war zone under siege. Local news paints a different picture.

Right-wing media claim that Portland’s protests against Immigration and Customs Enforcement show a city “under siege” or “conquered by antifa,” but local news programs have reported the opposite. Mult...

Of course the economy is tanking, that was the plan. They have to break it before they can install their pyramid scheme. Not the least bit unexpected.

A data hoarder on Reddit used AI to create a searchable database of more than 8,100 files about Jeffrey Epstein released by the House Oversight Committee, making it one of the easiest ways to search through a very messy batch of files.

So the GOP just hung our active service members out to dry like old wet towels.
What will they do to our veterans?
Our seniors?

Meanwhile, it is too late for American farmers bc of silly Turnip Games. Even if he throws them paper towels & a few ¢ on the $$$, it's a fraction of what they would've made had they sold their harvest to🇨🇳
When spring does finally come, they will have lost the farm to corporate vultures.

Yay, MAGA?
