Now that the Tate brothers got arrested, Trump will probably hire him to tutor Barron on how to play a victim after sexually abusing women

All of buildings and monuments Trump has destroyed is a visual representation of what he has done to the soul of nation. Restoring America after Trump and MAGA are defeated is going to require a 2nd Reconstruction. Only this time we can’t lose focus and give up on restructuring southern society

Just like they accused Rep. Ilhan Omar of wanting to kill Trump for saying they kill pedos in Somalia 🤷‍♂️

Since RFK Jr is a eugenicists, I think he should provide proof of his superior health by taking a tour of that lab with no mask or protective clothing

Another insane thing republicans are running on; congress is broken 😡 Republicans control the congress they broke and they want voters to think more republicans will fix the problem? Seems like this would be an easy talking point for Dems to debunk, but they can’t bring themselves to be competent

I read the Guardian, which is a reputable newspaper in the UK. It’s the sad truth, but in America, the home of the “free,” we need to rely on foreign journalists to tell us the truth about what is happening here because our media is owned by oligarchs who are interested in protecting themselves

Voters in South Carolina have given electing people who abdicate their power to Trump a try and all that’s done is cause them hardships so maybe South Carolinians should try something different and elect someone who serve South Carolina and not Trump

It’s pretty simple Annie. All of this is happening because of Trump and the Republicans in congress who are too cowardly to stop his disastrous policies that are harming all Americans Get rid of Trumps enablers in congress you’ll be able to remove and convict the source of much of America’s problems

A major contributor to these disorders is abuse and the whole country has been abused economically by trickle down economics. MAGAs being predisposed to bigotry and lacking critical thought have been conditioned by Repubs and Fox to blame Dems & marginalized communities for their economic woes

I don’t have any mental health training but it appears to me that MAGAs demonstrate behaviors consistent with psychopathy and sociopathy. Some of these behaviors include taking joy in the pain of others, aggression, irrationality and loyalty to a specific person or gang. Cont…

www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i... ICE has gone from a poorly trained paramilitary group resembling Hitler’s Brown Shirts to a secret police force that makes people disappear like the Gestapo

Gone in 90 seconds: an ‘invisibilized’ ICE is arresting more people than ever
After public backlash, the Trump administration changed its tactics from ‘siege’ to ‘soft feet’. Now, ICE is everywhere

Having “not improved the land,” was one of reasons European colonists gave for dispossessing Indigenous peoples of their ancestral homes. Dominion over nature was something European Christians thought god granted them and therefore they were doing god’s work when they razed forests in their colonies

Right wingers around the world operate on the “for me but not for thee” doctrine in the sense that their much worse and more obvious corruption and crimes are forgivable but if someone on the left does anything close to what the fascists are doing, it’s a national fucking crisis

The motivations of Republican voters are easy to summarize 😏

Chet Manley @bostonbenjamin.bsky.social · 18/09/2026
Republicans have appealed to the dumbest, most ignorant and hateful voters among us and conditioned them to vote against their own economic interests and then blame the marginalized communities they’re trying to oppress for their economic problems

Newt was a crucial player in combining Republican racists with religious bigots to create an incredibly ignorant and hateful voting base that votes against their own family’s wellbeing in order to protect White privilege

No definitely not. Newt was speaker of the house pushing family values while divorcing his wife for a younger, stepford looking woman and just being an all-around scumbag

I was wrong about the fed not raising interest rates, which they just did but I’ll still be right about Trump melting down and throwing a childish hissy fit

Chet Manley @bostonbenjamin.bsky.social · 16/09/2026
It would also be awesome if the closer relationship included arresting the war criminals Trump and Netanyahu so they can be punished for their crimes against humanity. Thank you for your attention to this matter

Chet Manley @bostonbenjamin.bsky.social · 16/09/2026
Markets are predicting the Fed to raise interest rates today. My question is; are these people stupid? Trump forced Jerome Powell outand launched an investigation against Lisa Cook for not lowering interest rates. I predict the interest rates will stay the same and Trump will have a meltdown over it

Sounds about right; poison us and raise our energy bills as the data centers are used to train AI to take our jobs

This is merely a bandaid on a ravaged economy. The only way to begin rebuilding the economy is removing Trump and all of his enablers from power, ending Trump’s wars and reversing all of his policies. The voters of South Carolina need to know how much the Trump administration has hurt them

www.theguardian.com/environment/... Lawsuits will be filed to prove emissions from these plants harm humans which they 100% do but we have a Supreme Court that said racism is over so I’m not overly optimistic about how they’d rule when the case gets to them Trump and his fellow fascists need to go

Anytime I hear about any federal agency undergoing “extensive restructuring” under this administration, I expect the worst and now it’s the NSA being altered. Sen Wyden opposed Gen. Rudd’s 3/10/26 confirmation to head the NSA in part bc he wouldn’t commit to getting warrants to spy on Americans.

Playing on people’s fears is how Trump/republicans help the greedy steal our money

Discriminating against the people and things small-minded bigots are afraid of is all Trump ran on and it was abundantly clear to all thoughtful Americans this was and is the case

Must have been an awesome museum! Plus, since it’s in Canada, you didn’t need worry about MAGA snowflakes trying to whitewash the histories of non-Northern European cultures

Trump is going to enact his restrictions and then states can sue which will end up before the Supreme Court. The problem with this is the conservative justices aren’t impartial in these upcoming election cases because they know after we take down Trump, we’re coming for his enablers

Exactly. SCOTUS has repeatedly demonstrated they have zero intention of protecting the Constitution from Trump

I’m sorry but thinking this ruling is going embolden Trump to further impede a free and fair election isn’t overreacting

www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026... I know we were all banking on dominating MAGA in the midterms so we can bring Trump to justice but this ruling means we need to be working on plan B (I think a nationwide general strike) because it’s unlikely the election is going to be free and fair

Thanks for sharing! I listened to this song and cracks let in the sunshine with my daughters and we enjoyed both songs. Love herself comes through as dark but there’s a yearning for something more positive in the vocals. Let in the sunshine is lighter but also provides a good message.

45+years of trickle down economics has led to the rich getting richer while it’s steadily become more difficult for families to afford necessities, let alone chase the American dream. To distract from their economic policies that hurt average Americans republicans started peddle hatred

Iran& North Korea have a long standing alliance rooted in mutual opposition to the United States international isolation and extensive military and ballistic missile cooperation Trump started a war with Iran and is now deep throating a regime that shares the tech that Iran uses to shoot at US troops

I don’t want to choke him out with my bare hands because I don’t want to get covered in Cheeto dust or close enough to him to smell his stench but Trump has made America worse in every conceivable way and the world will be a better place without him on it. I personally prefer the guillotine

With Trumponomics, it isn’t even trickle down, its vacuum up. Americans paid the tariffs and companies got the refund.

Blanche won’t be out if he doesn’t get confirmed, he’ll just keep serving as “acting” attorney general. This is why Cornyn and Tillis’ caving on Blanche is particularly cowardly. They have nothing to lose politically and they still decided to give Blanche an air of legitimacy

Senate Republicans are mad at Fauci for not answering questions about why their penises are so small and why they can’t satisfy their wives or men they meet on grinder Their 2nd question is answered by their 1st one but the reason they’re so small is they handed over their manhood to the tiniest man

Republicans want to do away with Social Security because they spent surplus payroll taxes on wars and the party of reducing the deficit would rather reduce or eliminate social security benefits than tax billionaires

Inflation is increasing and the affordability crisis is getting worse causing average Americans to go deeper into debt. At this point the AI bubble is propping up economy. The stage is set for a major economic collapse. Myself and everyone else who paid attention to Trump’s 1st term, saw this coming

As America is coming close to losing its measles elimination status because of the conspiracy theories promoted by Trump and RFK jr, it dawned on me that this is happening because after years of learning to believe lies republicans and MAGA have developed herd immunity to facts, logic and reason
