We are fighting their abuse of the 2nd Amendment with our proper use of the First Amendment. We haven't taken their guns away, but now they claim anti fascism is hate speech. They seek to take our weapons away. Why? BECAUSE WE HURT THEIR FEELINGS!

it is becoming more important to note that a significant portion of the american citizenry is composed of amoral slabs of whey under the employ of the federal government, and none of us will be free until they are all stripped of power. abolish ICE now.

Russian propagandist Solovyev continues to entertain us. He went on X,saw my post and Polish FM Sikorski's comment,then started crying and screaming.He is still very upset about the villa in Italy that was taken away from him

By the way,Solovyev's 'media presence' is by now an artificial phenomenon

“Not going to be great” is quite the understatement by Fox here.

Tweet by FactPost (@factpostnews) reading: “Fox: The tariffs, 10% for lumber, 25% for cabinets, vanities, upholstered furniture. On January 1st, the tariff for cabinets and vanities increase to 50%, all the rest of the furniture to 30%. The cost of building materials has increased 34%. There is a concern that this is not going to be great for the home buying industry.” Below is a Fox Business screenshot showing a reporter in a lumber workshop with the headline “New tariffs on furniture & lumber take effect.”

Supreme Court's reactionary cadre poised to eviscerate Voting Rights Act's Section 2, greenlighting GOP maps that obliterate Black districts under partisan pretexts, cementing autocratic hegemony in Dixie. #VotingRights

Rep. Nancy Pelosi has had enough of the right wing-lies. As Dems continue to show up to try and make a deal to reopen the government, Pelosi was confronted by a reporter asking about January 6th. Pelosi snapped back telling her to "shut up".

In unanimous decision, Australia’s highest court is not having Candace Owens. They're denying her a visa, claiming she failed a “character test” according to that nation’s standards.

More of this, please.

Something else that has never happened before in American history, as the Trump admin continues to piss on the Bill of Rights while Republicans in Congress continue to remain silent. Another thing to protest on Saturday.

This isn't about money. It's about power. The Rich take money away from The Poor so they have the power.

This ain't rocket science folks.
