Stay home at night.

Protest peacefully.

When the guard shows up, go home.

Then protest again.

Peacefully.

They are putting agitators in. Do not engage.

Protest peacefully.

This is unusual trading by a politician.

Marjorie Taylor Greene bought Palantir, $PLTR, on April 8th.

On April 17th, Palantir, $PLTR, was awarded a government contract with ICE to develop ImmigrationOs.

She sits on the Committee of Homeland Security

Palantir is up nearly 50% since.

More than a billion Catholics are still mourning the Pope’s death, but Trump and his allies think it’s the perfect time to mock their faith. Absolutely despicable.

Robert F Kennedy Jr was a 14 year heroin addict and had the money/privledge to get the very best treatment.

Now, he's going to take away Narcam so addicts can die.

Put that in your church plate and pass it around.

For the life of me, I’ll never understand how “Christian” Conservatives back a guy who cheated on his pregnant wife with a porn star, was found liable for rape, mocks their faith, and thinks he’s God—while hating Joe Biden, a devout Catholic who actually lives his faith. Olympic-level hypocrisy.

Trump bears the bulk of the blame for the unprecedented global economic crisis now unfolding. But let’s not ignore the role played by the hideously bad judgment of the business and financial leaders who supported Trump and didn’t realize this was an inevitable outcome.
