Good. Also, fuck the Department of Education for attempting to pull this bullshit in the first place, and fuck this whole racist, shitty administration. And fuck ICE, while I'm at it, because that's just an evergreen at this point.

As communities struggle to recover from increasingly devastating climate disasters, the Big Oil companies fueling them are making trillions—and paying nothing. We can't afford to let Big Oil off the hook.

This is a slap in the face to veterans and servicemembers.
This new rule from Trump's Department of Veterans Affairs will force millions of disabled veterans to decide between managing their health and receiving the full benefits they've earned.
Secretary Collins, make this right.

You got on a post promoting Crockett to diminish her. You can see why I question your racial bias. Every time you talk shit about her, I see you. You could have kept your shit to yourself, but nope you had to white flight in to give your opinion.

Still a lot of Kamala Harris bashing on this site & the people doing it are just plain stupid. “ She stood on a stage with Liz Cheney!” So fucking what? She wasn’t telling America she was adopting Conservative Policy, it was because Liz was 1 of the few R’s to stand up to Trump!

FYI "Track Aipac" is a Ron Paul / John McCain supporter who works in the oil industry and whose husband is a military contractor.

Think about how different this map would be if Hillary had been rightfully elected in 2016 and we hadn't lost the Supreme Court (that Leftists told us not to worry about). Think about it.
There would be no red on this map. Thank Jill Stein & Bernie.

Democrats are NOT ANTIFASCIST
You keep telling me that not voting will result in fascists getting elected and MY point is WELL DEMOCRATS GETTING ELECTED DOESNT PREVENT IT EITHER
One election later the electorate thinks fascism isn’t do bad again and then another fascist gets a go

I think some younger Americans, perhaps of the leftist variety, don't fully comprehend how precious voting is. The Voting Rights Act passed in 1964 and while that may sound like a long time ago if you're 20...think about it this way. It's the same year that these folks were born:
