When the young in America are indoctrinated to believe in something without a shred of evidence- we’re making America fall. Teaching people to focus on the “afterlife” dulls the motivation to make our current world better today.

Donald Trump has put America into a trap. He can no longer stop the war in Iran. The reason for invading shifts by the hour. His options are becoming more limited by the day. We will be forced to invade by ground shortly- turning everyday Iranians against us. We are being led by baboons.

Dear Venezuelans in America, I understand the elation of having eliminated Maduro from your homeland. He was one evil fvcker. But please understand, Trump doesn’t care about your freedom. You will not have a democracy. He did it to steal your oil and natural resources. Sorry. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Trump is no longer bending the rules – he is demolishing them, with consequences far beyond Caracas

Does anyone else think we’ve just started an international worldwide power-grab? We’re no better than Putin’s Russia annexing Ukraine for its natural resources under the false pretense of re-unification. And China has essentially been given a green light. This is an onerous start to 2026.

Fact of the Day: US analysts say Fentanyl is almost entirely produced in Mexico, where cartels such as the Sinaloa and Jalisco New Generation synthesize it using precursor chemicals imported from China. Mexico is the primary exporter of the drug to the US. It’s not about drugs folks.

The biggest surprise of the 21st Century. The pipe bomber was MAGA. Who would have ever guessed? It wouldn’t make sense to waste tax payer dollars to prosecute as he will be pardoned anyway. This is what MAGA calls “law and order”.🙄

The unprovoked attacks on the Venezuelan boats were the decoy. Until proven otherwise, these people were murdered to cover up Trumps lust for bribes.

A warning to all of our brave men and women in our military: Pete Hegseth will never take responsibility for his orders. You will be left alone to face the consequences of his irresponsible and ILLEGAL orders. All of you are now his scapegoats.

Trump said loyalty to the Constitution is punishable by death. The President of the United States, is demanding the military’s fealty to him, not our constitution. This is not a drill, it is our new reality.

Seems like a good time to remind folks (OP by @carlosegates.bsky.social)
A screen shot of a post from Nov. 7, 2024, by Carlos E. Gates that says “Dear MAGA, As of today: - Inflation 2.1% - Unemployment is 4% - GDP is 3% - Manufacturing is booming, and only getting better. 

The economic boom you’re about to credit to Trump was brought to you by Joe Biden. And when it crashes, that will 100% be on Trump.

When Americans elect criminals like Trump & Co. because they convince us they will “Make America Great Again”, this is the outcome. They care nothing about Americans- they’re only in it for the grift.

In the Third Reich, Hitler’s will replaced German law. Whatever he wanted, he did. Life in the early months of Trump’s second presidency hews to this framework in important respects.

The “dual state” theory was invented to describe Nazis. The Supreme Court could take us there.
Authoritarianism—but make it look like the rule of law.

This is the President explicitly threatening to withhold federal funds from New York City if voters elect a candidate he opposes. This is an unlawful attempt to coerce voters through federal financial threats and a textbook example of voter intimidation to influence the outcome of a local election.

If an enemy of the president can be charged with a federal crime the Department knows it can’t prove, then the Department is rotten to the core. Bondi is unfit for office and as legitimate attorneys leave we can expect more phonies like Halligan to fill in. open.substack.com/pub/harrylit...

When President Clinton banned assault rifles in 1994, mass shootings dropped by 43%. When the GOP let the ban expire in 2004 they increased by 243% - don’t try to say bans don’t work, the data doesn’t lie.
