If America ultimately collapses, it will be the result of its own failures…………. This is not my expression of hatred for the nation itself; it’s rooted in my clear rejection of the irresponsible leadership and decision-makers who are actively running our country into its decline. 🔆☕

If you started siding with the right and being wary of the left because some leftists were cunts to you on social media you were never particularly left-wing to start with. I've had mad leftists and woke scolds say insane stuff about me and to me and it never made me hate centrists any less, bitch.

Almost daily someone wants to tell me that I should mind my own business and stay out of US "politics". So almost daily I have to remind them that Trumpism affects global economics, environment and peace. I'll do what every concerned global citizen should do. I'll express my opinion. Loudly.

Let it be known that @bitocrosszer.bsky.social was kidnapped by ICE after attending a mandatory appointment, and taken to a jail out in Las Vegas because he has immigration lawyers out here in Boise. He has a severe seizure disorder, ADHD and autism and I fear that they knew this.

As an anti-Trump voter, the only critique of the Democratic Party that I am interested in right now is that they are not doing absolutely everything possible to put themselves between this regime and the people harmed by it

I heard that now they're placing people who criticize ICE under surveillance. I want it to be known to the entire world that I despise ICE to the core and I think their entire institution should be abolished. They are cruel, inhumane, and are examples of the worst of humanity

31 years ago this month, I warned that America was becoming a two-tiered society composed of a few winners and a larger group left behind, whose anger and disillusionment could be easily manipulated.
I took a lot of heat for this speech. Watch and tell me if I was wrong.

Breaking: The House voted unanimously, 426-0, to strip a provision in the funding bill that allowed senators to sue the government for $500K if their phone data was searched without their knowledge.
The provision was designed for GOP senators to sue over the Jack Smith investigation.
