The Hidden History of Trump’s First Trip to Moscow

In 1987, a young real estate developer traveled to the Soviet Union. The KGB almost certainly made the trip happen.

Israel and the United States are the 21st century evil fascists carrying out genocide and committing war crimes in front of our eyes.

American fascists are, obviously, very scared about how big a protest "No Kings" will be this weekend, as seen by their hysterical, dishonest rhetoric about it.

Let's make their fears come true by showing up on October 18

This Supreme Court case in Louisiana is about one thing, and one thing only: reinstituting Jim Crow by way of ensuring that Black Americans are taxed without receiving representation in Congress.

Everything else is noise and bluster.

This stolen Supreme Court is going to send us back to the 1860s.

Let’s stop pretending. The issue before the Supreme Court right now is easy to understand: There are still many people on the far right who don’t see Black Americans as equals...they see them through the same filthy slur they whisper when the cameras are off. That's right...that word.

This citizen was using his 1st amendment right to speak freely on a public sidewalk. He was not committing a crime. He was illegally abducted from a public sidewalk and dragged into a government prison. This is fascism. This is grounds for war people. The U.S. government is our enemy.

ICE arrested comedian Robby Roadsteamer for singing a parody of Rod Stewart’s “Do Ya Think I’m Sexy” in a Jeffrey Epstein the Giraffe costume outside their facility.

He sings “If you hate brown people / and you are a Nazi” and ICE thugs grab him and drag him into detention. No violence—just speech.

As the cold war in the USA heats up, imagine yourself surviving and winning. We don’t know what it will look like but we must drive these MAGA Nazi’s to hell. Failure is not an option.

Axios: "The most expensive political ad campaign of the year is being run by the Department of Homeland Security."

DHS has spent "at least $51 million this year on ads thanking President Trump for securing the border, according to AdImpact."

U.S. government pays for 2025's most expensive political ad campaign

The next closest ad campaign is the $41 million effort to support California's redistricting measure.

I believe the south side Chicago building was “full of Tren de Aragua gang members” about as much as I believe the Venezuelan boats are filled with “narcoterrotists”.

The regime will say anything to justify unreasonable, and even lethal, force.

Hey. Hi. Tom Homan is on camera taking a $50k bribe and no one knows where the money went. If this was any other administration, this would be non-stop on the news. Why are we normalizing this stuff?

“Anyone who has any critique of Trump is potentially in the crosshairs,” says @mark-bray.bsky.social, a Rutgers professor who fled the country with his family after receiving death threats for his antifa scholarship.

An American citizen protesting on a public sidewalk is in prison because United States government agents didn’t like that she was protesting against them. This is our god given freedom being taken before our eyes. The time to resist with deadly force is now.
