Forced labor is one goal of this regime & its ICE kidnappings. H-2A visas have been modified to allow employers to more easily hire a work force, and for less.

Donald Trump thinks he’s all powerful. It’s up to us to remind him on October 18th that he’s not.

We will show him who really has the power in this country — and we will do it peacefully. nokings.org

The ‘Peace President’ killed six more people off the coast of Venezuela this morning. We have no evidence other than his word that they were a threat to anyone, anywhere and also release the Epstein files. Thank you for your attention in this matter!

Former pardon attorney Liz Oyer was unjustifiably fired by Trump.
She explains, the definition of "plenary authority" and what Stephen Miller is implementing via Project 2025 by extending presidential powers.

Love for humanity involves a deep, unconditional care for others, even strangers, and a desire to alleviate suffering.

Q: We've seen images out of Chicago of federal agents shooting faith leaders with pepper balls and arresting journalists. Where's the limit for you on what's acceptable conduct by federal agents?

MIKE JOHNSON: I've not seen them cross the line yet.

Of course, Republican numbers are skewed. They pay little attention when using government-issued EBT cards.

While Trump was busy doing nothing to lower grocery prices, he used the presidency to double his family’s wealth.

He was never going to help you.
He was always going to help himself.

Which Republican genius came up with the talking point to label millions of ordinary Americans peacefully protesting their government as paid Marxists who hate America?

That’s really what you are going with?

That we hate the United States of America?

Fuck you.

Apparently, they don’t hand out a Nobel Peace Prize to those who negotiated a ceasefire they had sabotaged a year ago just to get elected.

Just wondering if there’s a connection between White evangelicals in the Bible Belt & guilt over slavery that they could never admit to another human, but maybe to their maker. Thoughts?
