I just realized something!!

Biden had some great policies but his communication was lacking (to put it mildly)

Trump is installing communicators

They will claim victories that are non existent but will tell their stories

Sorry ass sons a bitches.
Watch this.

Open your eyes to this brutality.

ICE beats up, drags & abducts this disabled visually impaired man.

Now share this.

Everyone must see the brutality of this administration & ask themselves what they are doing to push back.

You have power.

Even sharing this video exerts that power.

A timely quote from the Bard as our politicians become more bombastic and self important:

“The fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool.”

Nobel prizes
Science prizes are awarded decades after the contribution
