You know what?
Americans are joining as my Patreon supporters.
Right now.
Powerful.
Thank you.
And I asked for nothing.
The fight is long.
You can support me or other Ukrainians.
It doesn't matter.
Words are good. Actions are better.

Ukraine stands.

I hope.
They really don't know this was President Zelensky's plan all along? They really think he's gonna sign over the mineral rights to the US? President Zelensky wants to call out their propaganda shit directly in front of the American people? What better venue than this? They got played.
February 28, 2025 at 10:30 PM
That sounds about right.
Am I reading this right? Those minerals are basically worthless unless there’s a security guarantee for long term investment. Trump cut off his nose to spite his face!! Zelensky had all the leverage!!

Wow.

I didn't need another reason to love this guy, but here it is.
Actual question from reporter: "Why don't you wear a suit?"

Ukrainian President Zelenskyy: "I will wear costume after this war will finish."

Unfortunately, yeah.

This is exactly what they want.

Especially all of the deaths that accompany these decisions.
We’ve tried to shelter our minds but tonight we’re preparing for the genocide of Science.

Entire NIH departments will have no leaders.

World renowned Scientists kicked to the curb without cause, & grants will loose their lead investigators.

Is this what they want?
Chaos? Destruction?
NIH ban on renewing senior scientists adds to assaults on its in-house research
Policy follows firings of tenure-track scientists and suspension of training programs

I saw a post saying that ICE is pausing its tip line, so I decided to call myself to verify.

The recorded voicemail said they are not currently accepting immigration status tips.

Good job, friends.

This. I need to remember this.

This goes with all of the sadness, too.
I miss Sir Terry Pratchett but his wisdom remains.

Yeah, I've been struggling with this myself for a while.

The feeling in the pit of my stomach just keeps intensifying.

I guess it's time to start getting ready for work. 🫠
It's pretty wild that we just kinda move forward like the whole premise of the country didn't get thrown under the bus that day
Four years ago, 147 lawless cowards inscribed their names on the wrong side of history. 12 of them voted to disenfranchise millions of their _own_ constituents based on a lie (but never questioned their _own_ elections).

110 of them are still in Congress.

Remember their names.

It's interesting that the climate change discussion has nearly disappeared.

The people who understand that we're too late or we're out of time are whispers. They're definitely not in the mainstream.

What's the point when the mindset that is winning does not care?

The point is a little more time.

I still have people in my life who deny involvement.

And people who think the 2020 election was stolen.

I wish I knew how to get through to them.

I'm still trying, but it's getting harder not to give up on them.

Everyday.

Don't forget to take breaks from the constant shit storm of new information. It's exhausting.
If you think you've never fallen for false / misleading info, you're wrong

We are ALL susceptible.
We will ALL make mistakes.

I make mistakes. I've fallen for misleading / false info.

Keep doing your best to stay informed on psyops/info control and be willing to unlearn and correct mistakes.

Imagine the outrage if the tables were turned.

We need integrity.
I can’t believe we have titans of industry slipping million dollar bills into Trump’s inaugural g-string like it’s some bachelor party for the end of democracy.
January 4, 2025 at 4:01 AM
Holy shit, I was today years old.

This is nuts.
Reminder that it’s totally crazy that our elected officials restrict journalists from filming aspects of what’s happening on the floor of the people’s House. It should not be like this!!

Nancy needs to retire.

Sometimes, I wish I lived in DC or her district so I could organize protests pushing her to gtfo.

The amount of misogyny I'm seeing in the criticisms of Trump's election festival is pretty fucking depressing.

Why the fuck are you going after the women more than the rapist himself?

My daughter will be 13 when Trump is sworn in, she will be 17 when he is hopefully out of office.

MAGA+oligarchy just went head to head via Twitter.

Trump = oligarchy.

Immigration is 100% ok, as long as the people coming here are indentured servants.
Death camps won't become a thing (hopefully), slavery is definitely on the rise.
The oligarchy says Americans are retarded.
He kissed the ring.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. saw an 18.1% increase in homelessness this year, with more than 770,000 people counted as homeless.

Exactly.

Keep talking to people about how all of this is nuts.

I constantly ask my Trump voting friends what they think about "insert insanity here" and about progressive policy that would actually help.

Sometimes, it's surprising.

Plant the seeds.
December 27, 2024 at 7:37 AM
Well, yeah, except I'm not totally sold on the Republican part.

Party affiliations are meaningless and change with the winds of power.
Donald Trump and Matt Gaetz not being held accountable means the system is working as designed. The wealthy and powerful have long been above the law--especially if they are white and Republican. My new article: deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/trump-and-...

This!
@fetterman.senate.gov,

I don’t have a problem with you meeting with Trump appointees.

My problem is that you are taking their promises at face value, despite evidence to the contrary.

Remember all the Supreme Court nominees saying Roe was settled law?
