Lefty on the progressive side, traveller, kitty cats, gardening, beach. I follow back eventually.

I will not obey in advance by censoring myself from saying what is right because they might call me names. WOKE SJW!

I'm tired of nutso oligarchs having crazy amounts of money. Let's tax them into oblivion and redistribute it to ourselves. We have the numbers.

Maybe the admin should reverse its decision to de-prioritize counter terrorism in favor of deportations

I'm wondering if the national guards were just standing around and got shot. I guess it could happen but it seems more likely that they probably instigated it. That's a guess based off of how we have seen other thugs willing to pull duty for trump act - ice, border patrol, fbi. Any word yet?

Dear ice and border patrol,

If you ever wondered what you would have done in nazi Germany - you would have been the gestapo who took the bonus funded by the gold in the teeth of auschwitz victims.

Whatever trump says happened with the wv guardsmen shootings will likely be a lie. Turn it around to get the truth.

How to get rid of Citizens United?

We can do away with it without a new Supreme Court. Nor do we need a constitutional amendment.

There’s a far simpler way. Let me explain: https://robertreich.substack.com/p/how-to-get-rid-of-citizens-united

Pamela Jo has until December 20th to release the Epstein files. She must include explanations for everything she redacts or withholds.

You cannot have a functioning economy when so few people at the top hold so much of the nation’s wealth. It’s not sustainable.

This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat

We must get big money out of politics.

It is the root of our dysfunction.

Our convicted felon president, who pardoned Enrique Tarrio, the leader of the Proud Boys convicted of seditious conspiracy, wants to charge Mark Kelly, a decorated war veteran and astronaut, with seditious conspiracy.

That’s some next-level banana republic shit right there.

"Trump didn't hide his grades because they were good.
He didn't hide his medical records because he's healthy. He didn't suppress the Epstein files because he's innocent.
And he's not blocking the jobs report & 3rd-quarter GDP numbers because they're strong."

Piggy trump got overconfident that his marketing of 'vibes' could let him do anything he wanted.

He gets away with it ...until he doesn't. Vibes can and will quickly shift if people feel it in the pocket. Even the racism won't be enough to entice them if they are hungry.

Consider adding universal snap to your agendas so that the thread of starvation can never be used as a weapon again against the poorest Americans.

Sen. Mark Kelly: “I’ve had a missile blow up next to my airplane. I’ve been nearly shot down multiple times. I’ve flown a rocket ship into space four times, built by the lowest bidder. I’m not going to be silenced by Donald Trump.”

Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed.

Getting big money out of politics.

Strengthening unions and fighting for higher wages.

Medicare for all, paid family leave, universal childcare...

This is the progressive populist agenda we need in America.
