For the record I’m neither a bleeding heart liberal or a card carrying Nazi. I’m of a dying breed of independents who vote for people instead of parties. I’ve tended to vote for more liberals of late because of the Nazification of the right.

Farmers grow what they grow because of farm policy.

We don’t need all the soy and corn that we grow, but those are the commodities that receive subsidies and markets.

If we want something better, if we want to heal the Earth and grow food, now is the time to do it.

If Mike Johnson is refusing to call the House back into session during the shutdown, then we’ll do the work right here the Bronx.

The New York Essential plan is being eliminated entirely next year due to the GOP healthcare cuts. People’s lives are at stake.

And that’s why we’re fighting back.

Thanks for sharing Mary. Now members of the Chicago Police force are being gassed?

Heads up people, whoever, or wherever these ICE thugs come from, they don't care if you're local law enforcement or not! It appears they'll gas us all the same.

Several major US airports are refusing to play a video of Secretary Noem in which she blames Democrats for the government shutdown. Many airport officials have cited the video's political tone as the reason for declining to air it. [Seattle, Portland, Las Vegas, Charlotte, NYC]

While I have never openly supported the PLO or any of the myriad organizations which followed the 1972 Munich incident, I find it troubling that none of us will admit that Netanyahu probably has no intention of agreeing to a two state solution to the problem. It's always a bait and switch.

So does this article suggest that ABC is in bed with orange Mussolini's kids? Cutting him off to deprive him of a platform to undermine their planned coronation?

HEY FORD, JUST MAKE THIS AGAIN.

This week's episode of RCR takes a crack at the 1989 Ford Ranger, a small truck from a time when that didn't seem like a revolutionary concept.

I'm convinced that Ford stopped making these cute little pickups because the media kept talking about how they were popular with lesbians.

And none of it will be televised because the billionaire pedophile owners won't let it.

1. In 2022, Jeff Bezos promised to give away the majority of his wealth during his lifetime.

It is not going well.

Since making the pledge, his net worth has almost doubled to $240 billion.

Meanwhile, he has given less than $5 billion to charity.

Jeff Bezos Can’t Give Away His Money

Maybe he should ask his ex-wife.
