I hope the stadiums are empty. I won’t be watching.
So let's get this right:
1. FIFA WC fans must pay a fortune for tickets before they leave home.
2. Pay for airline tickets.
3. Pay for accommodation.
4. Prove they have enough to fund their stay.
5. Pay the Trump security deposit.
Then risk having some racist border guard turn them away?
FAFO!

Putins kidnappers cosplaying as Trump’s goons.
What makes their tactics any different from criminals? Criminals also don’t uphold the law and respect rights. Indeed,it is altogether possible that these are the worst and most dangerous people in our society. Other criminals tend to assault people, these maskers kidnap, imprison & disappear people

I can see why this Nativity scene makes some uncomfortable. It perfectly encapsulates USA’s current reality & hypocrisy. It reminds me of this: “For I was hungry & you gave me something to eat; I was thirsty & you gave me something to drink; I was a stranger & you took me in;”—Matthew 25:35

Palestine is still facing ethnic cleaning, starvation and strikes from Israel.
The genocide continues so why then do our politicians and media keep speaking of "a ceasefire".
Gie me peace we are being told to deny what we are seeing in front of our own eyes.

The U.S. is mirroring a pattern that has happened in authoritarian regimes around the world. When a government erects barriers to reproductive care, it doesn’t just cause death and suffering for women and their families. Such policies are often a first step in the gradual decline of democracies.

The problem is that the farmers will need another bailout in 2026, 2027 and 2028. You customers have found new suppliers and are happy. As a Canadian I now prefer African oranges that are in our stores, Florida can keep theirs. China is now buying from South America. These customers are gone.

There’s no peace in Gaza.

There’s no peace in Ukraine.

There’s no peace by Trump.

There’s only suffering for the Felon’s own people and for the world.

Because he lies, lies, and lies.

Consumer Reports ranks Teslas as the least reliable used cars. "The best of the worst [ten] was Chevrolet at a score of 40. But Tesla makes that failing grade seem respectable with its absolute rock bottom rating of 31, trailing Jeep by just one point.” futurism.com/advanced-tra...

On Consumer Reports' latest ranking of used car reliability, Tesla came in dead last with a rating not even half of the top placed brand.

The genocide in Palestine has continued. The aggression of the zionist colony has continued across the region. Free Palestine, continue to boycott the zionist entity, remove zionists and zionist organizations from your lives.

All of this was attempted before and we were never taught about it. In 1933, the billionaires of their time, tried to over throw the US goverment via military coup.

#Billionaires plotted to overthrow FDR in 1933 and we were intentionally never taught about it. Have you heard of this before? The "Business Plot". The media of the time called it a hoax. Gov buried the report. I was able to find documentation. #History we ignore gets repeated. Ever heard of this? 👇

A ceasefire that allows Israel to murder unnoticed, is not a ceasefire: it is a tool to fool. It is a managed apartheid killing field normalized by world powers. For Trump’s Israel-first-bubble, the ceasefire is “holding” so long as only non-Israeli Jews are murdered.

This is the problem. We are subsidizing the biggest employers that won’t pay a living wage. The CEOs are billionaires.
The minimum wage should be increased significantly!
In Massachusetts, 74% of working-age recipients of food stamps are employed, half of them full-time. Nearly 2,500 work for Amazon and another 2,300 work for Walmart. Uber, DoorDash and Tempus Unlimited each have more than 1,400 workers who rely on SNAP www.bostonglobe.com/2025/11/28/m...

One immigrant shot National Guard members and MAGAs want all immigrants gone. Dozens if not hundreds of schoolchildren are shot by white people every year but you don't hear them wanting to kick out white people. And you sure as hell don't hear them wanting to do anything about all the guns.

We’re shutting down immigration and canceling Afghanistani-Americans because of a single incident. But thousands of gun deaths, don’t require a single action of any kind. We’re not banning men, or young men, or abusive young men, or guns.

This wasn’t “mental health”? This one incident?

If the President doesn’t want to be called a Russian asset, perhaps he should stop acting like a Russian asset.

Absolutely this!
The sad fact is people die of gun violence EVERY DAY in America. It feels like they are using the two National Guards' deaths for political reasons.
Their deaths are getting more attention than most school shootings this year.
The worst part is that this won't lead to change.
