In an alternate universe, McConnell, Garland, Meuller, and Biden had the courage and integrity to convict Trump, and he’s spending his final days behind bars, while America is still moving forward instead of regressing back to the Jim Crow era of white supremacist violence and fascism. Sigh… image
Susan Collins was the deciding vote today to block the Senate release of the Epstein files. Graham Platner is people funded, rejects AIPAC, condemns Israel’s genocide in Palestine by name, & doesn’t protect pedophiles. Join me in throwing a few bucks his way:
I regularly get death threats. I've had to go to federal court to testify against the man who wanted to kill me and my children. I have never responded by calling for violence against those who seek to harm me, & certainly never against any block of people. We have no idea who killed Kirk, and may not for a while. But speculation only creates more chaos. And we don't create peace by demanding an eye for an eye. If we want peace, take this moment to thoughtfully reflect, not seek blind revenge.
It's not only okay, but an obligation to call out the hypocrisy. Trump is ordering flags at half staff for Kirk's murder. Yet, two months after the murder of MN Speaker Melissa Hortman he's refused to so much as call the Hortman family or MN Governor Walz, and instead took out time to mock them. Vile hypocrisy doesn't facilitate peace, it enables more violence.
Jerry Seinfeld just spoke at Duke and said that the "Free Palestine" movement is worse than the KKK, because the KKK is honest that they hate Black people and Jews. Free Palestine movement includes Jews, Christians, and Muslims. It's focused on the principle that a foreign nation shouldn't illegally & militarily occupy land that isn't theirs. KKK is a 160 year old white supremacist terrorist org that mass murders Black people. Seinfeld defending the KKK proves only his overt white supremacy.
This week SCOTUS issued a ghastly ruling, that Trump's ICE fascists can use ethnicity as a ‘relevant factor’ to detain people, specifically citing Latino ethnicity. Here’s the harsh truth: This Supreme Court’s extremism is not an aberration, but a manifestation, of Supreme Court extremism throughout U.S. history. Here are the devastating receipts:
