THIS is exactly the truth. That means the fucking corrupt members of SCOTUS MUST be removed. They are traitors to all Americans. After they are gone we remove the power of Citizens United at the local level and set new rules for who gets to be president. If we fail to do this we won't recover.

Dear Belgians.
Now you must help and put pressure on your Prime Minister @deweverbart.bsky.social, who is actively helping #Russia in its attack on #Europe.

1/6 Belgium is helping Russia in its war against Ukraine.
How? It is the final obstacle preventing Ukraine from accessing Russia’s frozen assets.
Does Belgium want to be remembered as Russia’s helper?

Demolishing the East Wing of the White House before finalizing plans for what will be built above its ruins is a near-perfect metaphor for Trump's approach to economic policy. The only difference is the wrecking crew doesn’t claim the rubble is evidence of unprecedented growth.

We're gonna need a truth and reconciliation commission and Nuremberg style trials to reckon with all of this evil, and any Dem candidate for office who shies away from a full reckoning in the name of "moving forward as a nation" can get well and truly fucked
I feel much safer today knowing that we deported a Babson College student back to a country where she hasn't lived since childhood.
She wasn't even flying internationally. She was flying to Texas.

Do you want to have Ukrainian blood on your hands @deweverbart.bsky.social?
Belgium’s legal concerns cannot outweigh the survival of Ukraine and Europe.
We must find a way to provide Ukraine with frozen Russian assets as soon as possible.
Failure to act is, in effect, siding with Putin

EU institutions deal last night on the "simplification" of the CAP dropped the looniest EP amendments, like exempting farmers in protected areas from env requirements that would still apply in un-"protected" land.
CAP remains money (to the rich) for nothing. But without the surrealist twist.
