Violence runs on ignorance, fear & misinformation fomenting hatred. It is always about power, petty, political, sexual, economic. Education in empathy, trust, respect & desire to approach truth & seek justice is the response.

The auto industry has known for decades that international lead recycling factories were spewing toxic smoke into the air. A major battery manufacturer blocked an effort to address the problem, and car companies repeatedly declined to sign onto inspection and certification programs

After his address to the nation that explained how after 3000 years he made peace in the Middle East, and drug prices are set to come down 600%, Steven Cheung, Trump's communications director, dismissed and criticism: “President Trump is a truth-teller and calls it like he sees it.”
That says it.

No the majority of Americans would like to have a Medicare option and medicaid for those who cannot afford it.
The GOP cannot come up with a plan to end the ACA because the only way to do it is with a public option or, of course, GOPCare = Don't get sick, if you do die quick.

Was there ever a serious "plan" for Gaza beyond look good in the media and short circuit mounting criticism?
There has been no real cease fire and the rest of the "plan" is a jumble of bullshit.
Trump's idea is look good and get a sizable piece of the real estate.
He could give a hoot about peace.
Despite all indications that the ceasefire has merely been a transition to a low-level bitter war of attrition, American officials seem convinced that Donald Trump’s plan is moving forward. Yet Israel shows no signs of withdrawing econ.st/4q8BMmK

Can we the documentation about the 600% cut in drug prices? Or the 27k people who die a year in Peru from snake bites?
How about the Middle East peace after 3000 years?
We comeback the point where they now go on the media and bullshit about bullshit.
MSNBC: Why does Trump constantly exaggerate about the economy instead of just being straight with the American people?

HASSETT: The president spent a lot of time with our team preparing slides that showed the data for what he was talking about in the speech. He had documentation.

4, 5, 600% cut in drug prices I can't wait. People with serious meds costs are about to get rich.

An old fart, screaming into a microphone as fast as he can because he needs to pee.
LOLLL Trump claims he’s cutting drug prices by 600 percent, which is not possible

What ceasefire?
We have gone from a "war" that was not a war but a genocide. To a "ceasefire" that is not a ceasefire but a free kill zone.
Behind the scenes, disagreements between Israel and America on how to implement the next stage of the ceasefire are deepening. Donald Trump is losing patience

An obvious scam. With the president behind it, there will be serious capital flowing into a start up company, it will slosh about and then fail except for those who are in on it.

They can't say it because they do not want to offend their employer (there are a few still employed by their constituents who do speak).
The media doesn't say it because it is owned by the same people.
Labour has cut its support almost in half in one year.

The Greens have more than doubled theirs.

Guess who our corporate Democrats want us to emulate.

Trump won because of the backing of corporate fascist billionaires who did not like the "progressive" policies of the Biden administration.
Trump is their avatar, host of Don's Shit Show. He's not running the country or making policy. He's lining his pockets and ego as he serves corporate interests
January 6 was like a much dumber version of Hitler’s Beer Hall Putsch and yet a plurality of American voters were like, Yeah, let’s give that guy the nuke codes again. An absolutely world historical debacle of societal ignorance. I’ll never understand it.
December 18, 2025 at 7:53 AM
Yes. Our "common sense" today tells us to look to the future.
To what government, what policies, we believe are right for a democratic nation of laws, a society based on rights and civic duties, fair elections, and elected officials who are true public servants.
We must plan beyond this nightmare.
