Focused primarily on U.S. current affairs and the global issues they influence.

About me:
• Moderate upset about our decaying democracy
• Lifelong independent voter
• I like Presidents that aren’t tyrants
• Fair warning: I’m very opinionated and I swear
Fun fact: there aren’t even REMOTELY enough American uniformed service members to occupy even a fraction of America’s big cities.

It’s simple math. Not even remotely close.

Yeah that’s some real bullshit.

Fucking automakers. “Old boy” bullshit like this is why I don’t buy American cars. That and the cars suck.

Best post I’ve seen all day.

The correct answer was “FUCK NO”.

ICE is more like the SS than the Gestapo.

They’re backwater border guards that couldn’t make it as real cops.

Real Nazi shit.

For the record, my mother lived under Nazi occupation.

I don’t use that word lightly.

Republicans are American Nazis now.

What the actual fuck.

So @governor.ca.gov , when are you declaring your intent to run?
January 14, 2026 at 5:06 AM
The Republicans hate the Republic.

At what point will bystanders stop being bystanders, and realize this will not stop? These guys are thugs, and they will not stop on their own. There are FAR more people in this country that despise ICE than there are Federal agents.

Numbers matter. Use them.

Gee, who could have guessed that our clueless Dumbfuck President would thump his chest into a world of chaos and drive America into the ground?

We’ll never recover from this you know. Not in our lifetimes.

Which means they’ll put more hacks in their jobs as backfills and bring even more bogus charges against people because Trump is a butthurt loser.

So he’s not dead yet?

Shame.

When you vote for Dems for those 10 years AND then they act so pathetically, we have every damned right to be pissed off at them.

Especially Chuck Schumer. He’s utterly useless.
January 14, 2026 at 4:53 AM
Only 50? Seriously? That’s it?

And they wonder why voters think they’re fucking useless?
January 14, 2026 at 4:49 AM
Trump is a piece of shit.

Always has been.

Always will be.

Will no one rid us of this meddlesome priest?
January 14, 2026 at 4:46 AM
Anyone that has relatives that still support Donald Trump, it’s beyond time to end all contact with them. They’re goners.
January 13, 2026 at 1:21 PM
I’ll tell you what will happen:

Russia will invade Eastern Europe, and Trump won’t do a fucking thing to help them.

Because he’s a fucking traitor.
January 13, 2026 at 6:50 AM
You do realize they don’t give a shit, right?

That’s where we are.

Kamala said it FOUR YEARS after Hillary did.

You know people were warning about this in 2016, right?

I really wish people would stop thinking that somehow Kamala was the first person to raise this specter. She wasn’t.
