The most openly racist, eugenicist monsters are running the U.S. They will use every opportunity to advance their agenda.
And as the wheels come off their regime they will only grow more brutal and obscene. These are dangerous days for us all.

Zehn neue Songs beim Copyright Office in Washington angemeldet & hochgeladen. Was man nicht alles macht, wenn man spürt, dass die Musik Potentital hat. Kostproben, wenn die Marketing-Kampagne anläuft. P.S. Es haben ein paar sehr gute Musiker aus mehreren Kontinenten mitgemacht. Eine Riesenerfahrung.

If people want to understand why American politics went bananas in 2012, the reason is that the moderate black President took a modest but consequential step toward decoupling healthcare from employment and every billionaire immediately poured their entire portfolio into race-hate media

If Trump shot someone on 5th Avenue. On what page would the #BrokenTimes report it?
The New York Times' story about Trump calling for the execution of members of Congress ran on Page 16 today, with an itty-bitty promo on the front about halfway down the page.
No wonder Trump thinks he can get away with anything.

Greg Bovino is leading a rebel cavalry terrorizing America—and it's important to recognize that it's in retreat. While the trauma and terror Bovino’s raiders instill is real and damaging, it’s remarkable to note how ineffective the force has turned out to be. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/trump-bord...

a big runoff last night, in New Orleans:
Calvin Duncan was exonerated after spending *28 years* in prison; he tried to get his own case records from the New Orleans city clerk—but the office dragged its feet.
So Duncan ran to become city clerk himself, and yesterday ousted the incumbent.
