Just be peacefully active in resistance NOW so we can avoid what wld be an ugly and bloody civil war. No rational person wants any of the various tools of harm used in such wars on our citizens. Even Dons own judges are ruling against him so there is still hope to avoid a worse case scenario.

They have created a massive private [albeit fat] army why bother w/ guns? IF they go after guns, they wld likely go after guns from the so-called violent leftists🙄 which the MAGA ppl will love. There could be incremental maga gun grabs via obtuse rules about mental health,skin color, or age, etc.

Kamala Harris: "Here in Chicago I'm told the helicopters that were descending on an American city were Black Hawks. Do you know what Black Hawks were designed to do? War. So I think everyone can draw their conclusions just based on the facts."

The problem is the American media-J.D. Vance

It's not the violent agents making agents unpopular w/ citizens, it's the media mischaracterizing IZE as violent that's the problem. If only the media would look the other way these agents could do their unethical and legally questionable jobs safely? 🙄

$20 Billion US taxpayer 💲 to Argentina led by tRump pal the chainsaw-wielding, libertarian Javier Milei.
BUT
Our gov't is shut down & when it is open the repubs keep cutting basic services for us due to alleged 'lack of funds'.

She was fun to watch on screen and always an interesting interview.

Diane Keaton was quirky and lovable but made of steel — and her indelible roles in the 1970s made her one of the New Hollywood greats. More:

Diane Keaton Was Nobody's Fool

Diane Keaton's roles in the 1970s, from 'The Godfather' to 'Annie Hall,' 'Manhattan,' and more, showed her range, intellect, and unique charisma.

I think it's as simple as the fact that someone in her circle of family or friends is being hurt and like many repubs it has to happen to them for them to see it.
I hope the pain begins to hit hard on many more maga ppl so they might wake up and fight back.

Dear Mike, again for your enlightenment, citizens rallying in support of the US Constitution is as all American as baseball and apple pie.
Your legacy will be one of being a propagandist and a traitor to the nation while ours will be among those of Washington, Abigail Adams, Jefferson, & Lincoln.

But the important thing is ...his bank acc't will growth yet again. 😠 He and his increasingly alien looking wife have ice in their veins.

But that's not how Pete, (granted he's incompetent) phrased it and even though other nations have done this type of flight training the optics are certainly questionable since Don just accepted a plane from them and Bondi was a lobbyist for them.
Might we agree on that?

More judges speak to the press (the NYT) about what a disaster the Supreme Court (specifically the shadow docket) has been - “incredibly demoralizing & troubling”; a “judicial crisis”; a “slap in the face to district courts.” www.nytimes.com/2025/10/11/u...

Christianity used to be attacked by atheists,now it's Xtians who are driving ppl out of the faith & church.
There is a scripture warning about taking the Lord's name in vain & ppl think it's about cussing- it's not, its ppl wearing their crosses on TV while lying & supporting evil policies.

You can't believe word coming from this propaganda administration. Hell, you couldn't believe them decades ago when they said she spoke multiple languages and had an advanced degree. It's all b.s.
