Q: How can this man be adored by millions?
A: "Think of how stupid the average person is, then realize that half of them are stupider than that"
—George Carlin
The ignorance & hate is hard to bear!
People need to open their eyes, though, because that hate & cruelty could end up hurting them.

I feel sorry for Justices Sotomayor, Kagan, & Jackson—that they have to be colleagues and interact with six unethical, compromised human beings! 😩

Even if you don’t follow politics that closely, you’ve probably heard of Rep. Jasmine Crockett. She stays in the headlines for speaking truth to power, using her position on the House Oversight and Accountability committee to maintain ethics and efficiency...💞✨

I feel sympathy and anger that critical thinking is not being taught in the schools or in the home. This is intentional by the government but parents are abdicating their responsibility too.

So. Rep Crockett announced her TX campaign for US Senate.
Good.
Voters get a choice in the primary. They can research the candidates, find their positions on issues and choose.
She's getting ultra-gerrymandered out of her Rep seat, so why not take the shot.
It's a primary. Not a coliseum fight.

When you pay attention to the tons of evidence showing that immigrants commit fewer crimes, pay taxes, and contribute billions to the economy, you see that the problem isn't immigrants. The problem is the people blaming immigrants and spreading lies and stereotypes about them.

The Supreme Court, Presidency, Senate and two party system are all quite anti-democratic institutions as presently constructed.
Our institutions are not only incapable of preventing tyranny—they’re currently enabling it.
When democracy returns, we need to reform our political system.

@Bluesky, we need something more than a “like/love” button. We need an “angry” button and a “surprised” button and a “don’t like” button. “Even a ho-hum button.”

What did the Nazis do with valuable items of Jewish people they deported or sent to concentration camps? They did the same thing that Nazi ICE rats are doing with the property of Hispanic people.

Not only is ICE snatching hard working people who are trying to earn a living, they’re taking their money too?
A witness recorded ICE agents taking a cash box from a taco stand in La Puente during an operation where four people were arrested.
