As long as there is a problem with drug addiction, there will always be criminals who are only too happy to profit from it.

Trump’s economic disaster, cruelty and violence toward people he doesn’t like will only exacerbate the problem of addiction.

His actions are insane.

Being controversial is not the problem. Having an opinion is not the problem.

Actions that harm others is the problem.

Johnson has adopted Trump’s habit of claiming amnesia.

Perhaps journalists should come prepared with videos to remind them.

No. The rich want far, far more than just tax cuts !

Have you not read Project 2025?

They are ripping all those services away from Americans to force them into for profit enterprises. (Privatization)

Please quit repeating this lame myth about just tax cuts.

F*k Johnson and tradition.

A JUDGE can swear in Grijalva.

Why on earth is this not being done?

Y. Marie Stout @stoutpotentials.bsky.social · 19h

F*k tradition and Johnson! A judge can legally swear her in. It’s been done before.

Why on earth is nobody looking at this????

I honestly don’t know why we don’t do what the Western Europeans do.

I may be wrong but these Jamie Raskin letters to the banks regarding their Epstein transactions could be the game changer. They are so busted!

They’re “governing” with HATE and TERROR fueled by their greed/addiction for $ and power.

Facts, truth, fairness, integrity, dignity, justice, joy, compassion, the greater good, YOU, are all subjugated to their greed.

Show them Oct 18 what is more powerful.

OK, let's understand a few things:

1) Antifa is not a real organization. It's simply an acronym, a philosophy - it means anti-fascist.

2) And what ICE is doing to innocent people and families on our streets every day is absolutely fascism.

He can’t extort millions of protesters.

That’s why we scare him.

See you Oct 18!

Jails should have never been privatized in the first place.

(Thank you, Reagan and the Heritage Foundation.)

This escalated cruelty is the result.

It is not profitable to provide care or comfort for people nor to care about justice.

Just keep those taxpayer funded cells full.

After Hitler, the Germans beefed up their curriculum to emphasize critical thinking.

Its purpose is to do exactly that. Learn how to distinguish fact from fiction.

It’s not that hard.

New, from me:
Trump's 3 step plan to create a military omniforce
1. Purge - those deemed disloyal
2. Merge - different parts of law enforcement/military
3. Surge - impose the omniforce on Dem cities; instigate unrest; assert dominance; silence dissent
donmoynihan.substack.com/p/purge-merg...

Purge, Merge, and Surge

Trump is creating a omniforce of armed loyalists to establish his police state

Modern warfare modus operandi:
1. Bomb everything = profit for military industrial complex
2. Flatten entire infrastructure & then 'rebuild' = profit for crony construction companies
3. Install compliant government & dish out lucrative contracts = profit for crony utilities & service companies

No intl journalists were allowed into gaza because israel didnt wsnt the world to see this (picture of totally destroyed city)
Almost every school hospital and mosque reduced to dust. And the journalists who stayed? Targetted for telling the truth. Gaza looks like the aftermath of the apocalypse

Forget Johnson and “tradition.” A judge can legally swear her in! It’s been done before. Why isn’t this being done now?
