TV host says we should kill every homeless person? No big deal
TV host says the right must "go to war" with the left? Pfft.
TV host says the government is cracking down on critics? Well, the government cracks down on him for the criticism.
Free speech, everyone.

It's time for our governments to do their jobs and sanction Israel whose illegal attack on 'Madleen' while sailing in international waters is a small extension of their war crimes in Gaza. Governments, institutions, media, and corporations...2/

"Aside from lying with a pathological ease and ordering others to kill without a scintilla of regret or remorse, being rude, crude, and a brute is a job prerequisite of any US president – Democrat or Republican."

Trump did on live TV what other US presidents would just do in private

Resist
How I resist?
I withhold any information in a patient chart that could be used to harm them, like last menses for some.
I no longer shop at stores or businesses that eliminate DEI.
I no longer watch network news.
I support grassroots organizations that support justice
Every bit matters.

The debt itself is not the emergency. Inequality is. And DOGE is cutting programs for the poor to clear the way for Trump’s tax cuts for corporations and the rich, making it worse.
DOGE is a transfer of wealth from the bottom to the top. See it for what it is.

Mainstream Media: "Elon Musk made a heartfelt gesture that was misconstrued as a Nazi salute."

Corporate America is desperate to kiss the ring.
