I'm really sick of all this bad juju, so
lets try something different.

Dear Donald,
I invite you, JD, Mike and all your friends on a fun vacation.

I'll load up my boat with lotsa party supplies, and you can take it for the weekend to the Caribbean.

Have a blast!

“… even if she doesn’t want it that way. “

- Typical, male GOP congressman.

The only thing that will change the status quo is if Israel takes the Palestinians demands for self-determination as seriously as it takes its own, as has been promised for generations, and which has never been seriously addressed.

That’s really all that will matter.

#FreePalestine

“Oh, fuck off, Cheryl” …

During the middle of the most mishandled pandemic in history, by the most selfish and idiotic president, when people were scrambling for the “most sound” medical opinion, while we dealt with an unknown virus:

“My husband said: ‘where’s the proof’, and he was right, so….”

Oh, fuck off, Cheryl!

This is the second “no kings” march. The first was non-violent. Why would they draw the conclusion that this one will be?

That’s the question we should be asking them. WHY??

Can anyone list one single thing that Trump has done since January that was:

1) selfless
2) beneficial for most Americans
3) respected by his party, and
4) did not enrich himself or his family/cronies

Just 1 thing, please…

uncle Ebenezer 🚫👑 ⭕️ 🟧 🍉 @harrymfhood.bsky.social · 17h

no respect.

You want respect - tell your husband to resign. He's clearly WAY too controversial and not following any of the norms of public health care, has presented conclusions contrary to the vast wealth of clinical science, and has shown that he has no grasp of policy or procedure.

RESPECT!

It will be interesting to see how main stream media covers “no Kings” - if they call it a hate America rally or if they cover it, at all

The apple doesn’t fall far from the horse

Bargaining chips is leverage. Leverage is the reason the hostages were taken from Israel. Therefore, Israel is held dozens of children hostage.

Fuck Israel!

uncle Ebenezer 🚫👑 ⭕️ 🟧 🍉 @harrymfhood.bsky.social · 1d

Because Israel wants us to see them as different.

The distinction that they were captured for use as “leverage” applies to both.

Israel has frequently traded captives for their citizens, and they know they are leverage.

No KINGS strategy:
1)Stay back from FED buildings and officers
2)Protest peacefully
3)Be vigilant! Watch for subversive actors - call them out and capture footage. Make it clear that they are NOT PART OF THE MOVEMENT!

Don't give them excuses to call out the military or label it an insurrection.

I’m kinda surprised he didn’t throw “violent trans illegals” in there for good measure.

uncle Ebenezer 🚫👑 ⭕️ 🟧 🍉 @harrymfhood.bsky.social · 2d

I’ve studied, watched, lived and read about the Israel-Palestine conflict for 50 years.

Regardless of the history that you know, the only way to find lasting peace in the region is though enabling self-determination and national self-rule of both peoples.

Read this book:

there is plenty of footage of the 1st no kings events. There was NO VIOLENCE.

Why would they assume that there would be, this time? Seems much more reasonable to assume "more of the same".

This event will be weaponized. Beware, people.

coffee prices at the store are up 30%

I can still afford it, but that's enough to make me bitch online about it.

So, yeah, fuck tariffs, and FUCK TRUMP!

Trump wants a tower in Gaza.

Israel supported Hamas because it helped split the PA/fatah national leadership.

They then claimed that they could not negotiate with Palestinians because they didn’t know who to negotiate with.

Hamas has given up the ONLY leverage that the people have demanded.

Bibi can now continue the assault without Israeli citizen pressure.

Extremely accurate, brutal and relevant takedown.

Important not only for the broader implications of RW media ownership, it exposes many of the lies that have led to her selection as editor.
