Newsom is a monster no less evil than Trump. He just wants the power for himself and is willing to manipulate you to get it.

while smiling!

Gavin Newsom literally dressed up in his best Bad Boy™️ attire, invited the press, and smiled as he destroyed everything these constituents had in the world.

Gavin Newsom is not a bad candidate;

Gavin Newsom is truly, at his core, a bad and despicable human being.

John McCain was just as much of a monster as the rest of them. He would talk big to the press and then walk back into Congress and vote exactly as he was instructed to. He was a foil, a fraud. He kept people believing that there could be "good" Republicans. It was a ruse. And people ate it up.

The British Empire committed unspeakable horrors and genocide to get their hands on spices now their descendants are so racist they think mayonnaise is too spicy.

The British Right are just in total freefall into savagery at this point
Jess Gill @jessgillO3 I've never had curry or a kabab and don't intend to. British food is the best. English breakfasts, Sunday roasts, fish and chips, pies, pasties, scones. Also, our national dish isn't a chicken tikka masala we only think that because a Labour MP said it decades ago to push multiculturalism. 15:31·17 Oct 25-78K Views

Trump's federal agents shot Marimar Martinez, a US citizen, multiple times for allegedly menacing them with her car in Chicago. Only hours later, Kristi Noem and DHS started spreading disinformation about the shooting.

Now the official line is crumbling. 1/

Trump’s Secret Police Shot a Citizen. Then Damning New Info Emerged.
As the official Trump administration line about the shooting of a Chicago woman crumbles, Senator Chris Murphy is asking pointed questions about what really happened here. Will we ever get answers?

The West is pretty much a shithole now. Too expensive, yet everything is falling to pieces. The governments don’t take care of their people, only the wealthy.
The rest have to live in dilapidated buildings, that are still too expensive.
The West failed.
It did. I’m sorry!

The worst part is the typical reactionary centrist response to this is to blame the left by saying we were crying wolf so now it won't be taken seriously when there's actual nazis in the halls of power.

We tried to warn you! You just didn't want to listen.

This is Chicago, armed fascist thugs pointing guns at unarmed US citizens.

Armed officers in military-style gear confront a group of civilians during a tense outdoor standoff; one officer points a rifle at a young man who raises his hands defensively while others shout in the background, with trees and houses visible behind them.

It's the worst thing watching resegregation happen in real time to please a bunch of white supremacist nazis in power.

3. It turns out Kaufmann’s conclusion is based on a massive statistical error. When corrected, the numbers show the opposite of what he claimed: transgender and nonbinary identification in America has risen over the last two years as more people come out than ever before.

1. Many of you have seen a graph purporting to show trans identification has decreased in recent years.

Matt Walsh and Elon Musk celebrated it as a victory over "transgenderism."

Turns out, the entire graph is based on an egregious math and statistics error.

Fact Check: No, There Is Not A New Survey Showing Trans Identity Is Decreasing
The claim, which originates from far-right professor Eric Kaufmann, appears to have made a glaring error: the survey actually shows more people have come out, not fewer.

“Kids”
My daughters are 26 and 29
One is a physician
And one is a TESOL Teacher in China
Neither are children
Neither get to speak like children who don’t know right from wrong anymore
And I hate to break it to these pathetic little cucks
But neither can they

Cops led us into the street as the new “protest zone” and then beat us repeatedly.

Got hit in the face with a baton. Leaving to pick up my friends who were arrested.

Stay safe out there.
This picture is from about 5 minutes after being hit. A visible bruise is forming on my right cheekbone and by my right eye.

This is such a thorough take down of Bari Weiss and the vapid shill she is for oligarch billionaires. He especially shreds the Free Press over it's coverage of trans issues and the so called whistleblower Jamie Reed.
