NEW: As President Trump increases pressure on Colorado Governor Polis to free Tina Peters, a close ally of Peters is calling for Gov Polis and Attorney General Weiser to be executed.

MAGA podcaster Joe Oltmann called for the execution of several Colorado Democrats by name.

36% of US born/edu citizens can pass the same citizen test given to immigrants. Partly because the Edu system has been gutted & restructured repeatedly.

Demand education: it may make it harder for those in power in any capacity to deal w/a population of 340M, but it also opens up doors & minds.

Capitalism only works if there are workers producing items and able to spend for items other than for just living. Tell me: are you able to spend past rent, food, and utilities? No?

The very thing that derives money and power is killing the very thing that creates that money and power.

Edu, comedians, science, freedom speech/press fall first in authoritarian-style govs. Because those open minds & allow comprehension.

Only those who make it illegal or try to squash those who keep to their rights & open minds hate anyone who won't toe their line. Stay strong & fight the squash.

Flooding the zone. Tearing down ed, research, science. Have enemy lists, ordering illegal acts & bullying.

The second you allow any of that to stand, you've let capitulation sneak in & that's the toe hold fascists & other authoritarian govs need to run rough-shod over you & everyone else.

What would happen if housing & food (at least) became Human Rights? Well, part of that would you still had to work, but not be compelled to work at jobs you hate for the least amount that employer wants to pay you just so you can try to keep a roof over your head & be able to afford food to eat.

Shady used car sales.

People who go bankrupt multiple times, even with a near fool proof biz.

Would you trust them at all? It's the liars fault that they can't try & even fake keeping their word.

Right now, the WH hosts someone fact checked on what has been said, & had multiple bankruptcies.

You want to help with change? If yes, thanks!

These companies have bent the knee and have gone on to support harmful policies. It's hard to skip some of these, but try.

Their corporate wallets being hit is about the only way we can let them know what they are doing isn't right.

Big Biz in all forms have caved in 1 way or another to Trump. All have 1 thing in common: drive for money.

The pocket book is seems to be the only thing that causes backbones to grow. It's not cancel culture or anti- whatever. It's giving Big Biz/Gov notice that what they're doing is wrong NOW.

Frankly: ALL public officials with duties that impact the public should have yearly physicals & cognitive tests.

If failed, those officials should be replaced, regardless of age.

Mental/physical are intertwined. & do you want to live with decisions with impairment done?

As we grow up, things are supposed to get more complex. We're also supposed to understand that things get more complex simply because we're supposed to handle that.

My question: Are you willing to take on the complexity? Or stay a child & think as you were sheltered or limited responsibility?
November 18, 2025 at 8:37 PM
As we grow older: we learn behaviors & thoughts. But are those behaviors & thoughts honest? Or compliance?
Ask yourself: Where did your attitudes come from? Have you known anyone/thing you hate? If 'no' to know, ask question where did your attitudes come from again.

Trump is having donors who should not have a say. even w/donated money, in changing the WH or even the government.
What are all these getting? Why did they feel they needed to 'donate'? Also: if the ballroom wasn't supposed to touch the WH and no plans to knock down the East Wing, why is it now?

If you boycott a company because you're not happy about how they spend the $s you give them: you've become an activist. Intentional or not.

Same for being aware of something & trying to buck the system or actions that created that 'something'.

It's your decision on where the world goes, though.

Between Exec. immunity, Unified Exec. Theory, & extension of powers Constitutionally given to Congress, SCOTUS has created a monster they might not be able to contain. If you keep handing over power to 1 person: that creates a dictatorship. The pattern? Laws, lawyers, & courts fall early on.

Even with mess ups about opening up the government, the Dems are still not as bad. R/MAGA snuck in hidden provisions in that 'clean resolution' & gave next to no time to read the bill.
Tell me: when someone says 'clean resolution' but sneaks things into that resolution, is that considered 'clean'?

A person who claimed bone spurs yet nothing to back that claim up, no records of med treatment, yet golfs often. Because of that claim, ducked out of being drafted multiple times.

Never held a job even remotely close to the military.
But best? At least those who serve or has served knows better.
November 17, 2025 at 10:36 PM
Unless you walk in another's shoes, you can't understand them & if you only look at your path & yet not think what persons on that same path treatment is like, you have no empathy.

Empathy isn't a weakness: courage & self-truth is needed. You know who did that? Jesus. Go read the Bible fully.

I can see tear gas or equivalents. But ICE isn't military, & has no need for warheads.
Explosives for 'immigration actions' aren't needed either. With the manpower you already have, all you have to do is surround a building. So what do YOU think is being set up?

Right of the people to not have unreasonable searches & seizures w/no warrants. Place to be searched & persons/items to be seized.
Citizens & non-citizens are being taken w/o warrants by & unidentified men. You know of at least (or should) of one conflict that did this: pre-WWII Germany.
November 17, 2025 at 10:22 PM
If you listen, are there plans of action? Or 'concept', name calling, distractions?
Also, who is doing what?

None of this is a red/blue issue. It's who believes in humanity & overall benefits vrs who believes you are to blame for your situation & you're not working hard enough.

1960s to mid 1970s: Strong unions, high corporate taxes but best economy
1970 to mid 1980s: Union busting, less robust economy
mid 1980s-current: Stagnant wages, increase Cost of Living, increased working hours, less jobs

See? Then throw in Citizens United & mix it all up: that's today.

You love the Constitution? But you think due process/human rights are only for certain people & not others? Fine, so when an LEO jails you with no reason, can't get a court date, please don't reach out to me. THAT's due process is for anyone on US soil, & YOU could be next on the list of 'others'.

When people hear about 'trade deals' and 'investment' being touted. You might want to research & find out if that's true or not.

If it was, then why is Argentina getting bailed out, the US buying beef & coffee, & then Argentina selling soybeans to China?
