"Donald Corleone, the US president who behaves like a mafia boss – but without the principles.

And while the Godfather is an archetype of strength and macho glamour,
Trump is weak, constantly handing gifts to America’s enemies and getting nothing in return..."

Starbucks @sbworkersunited.org baristas at corporate stores nationwide are on strike! For 4 years, they have fought tirelessly for a fair contract, and Starbucks has responded by union-busting.

America’s unions stand in solidarity with baristas. We have your backs! ✊

Anonymous American Gestapo ICE agents chase a local flower shop owner into the woods to abduct them.

Neighborhood bystanders follow them into the forest and film them, harass them, and shame them until they leave.

The court issues a scathing ruling today in the Comey case. Judge William Fitzpatrick notes, among other things, that Lindsey Halligan made two false statements of the law when responding to questions by grand jurors. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

An off-duty ICE agent threatened a random Hispanic teenager with a gun as he was driving. He pulled him from the vehicle and started to demand that he prove he was here legally. THE ICE AGENT WAS ARRESTED FOR ASSAULT. Pretty much the same assaults we're seeing every day

You can look at it in business or geopolitical terms. South America, as it prepares for an insane US "forever war," is tooling up elsewhere.

I wonder now. Ater Judge Marquínez separates Martinelli's case, can he be declared "in rebellion" and on that basis be tried in absentia?

This is obviously not about public safety. It's a terror campaign by the federal government on all of us. When there is no due process for everyone, none of us are safe. A fascist police state where anyone can be detained for any reason goes against everything America used to stand for!

It looks like the oligarch president of Ecuador has had his ass thoroughly kicked in today's referendum, losing his bid to reinstall US military bases and his other 3 proposals. Not remotely close.

Canada has moved on. Canadians are standing up to Trump. They are trading with new partners. Travel to the US has declined the last 10 months. Canada opened a consulate in Greenland to recognize it as part of Denmark. Trade and travel to the US will not return.
