We are living under a purely openly fascist regime. The demo rat leadership seems to be fine with it. They would rather see our democracy ruined than lose their seats to actual progressives. Ilhan Omar’s Home Raided by DHS Following Trump-GOP Deportation Threats www.commondreams.org/news/ilhan-o...

Are you a single issue voter if you reject candidates for moral deficiencies like being a molester, rapist, harasser, fraudster? You have standards for human decency. Same is true when we reject corporate Dem candidates who fail to name the ongoing genocide and demand an end to it.

I have said publicly or a while that a reporter should ask Trump to comment on Wakanda and say they're pro-tariff and only half-jokingly, I stand half-vindicated (and with this administration, as I have also said, you cannot make this stuff up):

Every US citizen or permanent resident who has served in the Israeli military over the last 3+ years must be investigated for war crimes and crimes against humanity. If they participated in this ongoing genocide they must be prosecuted.

⭕️ Ali Abunimah: “For what? What has Iran done to deserve this relentless aggression?”

Electronic Intifada co-founder Ali Abunimah spoke to Drop Site Live about what he described as the latest chapter in 47 years of aggression against Iran following its 1979 revolution that overthrew a tyrannical U.S.-backed dictatorship.

He pointed to the 1980 Iraqi invasion, which had the full support of the United States and Europe, including German-supplied chemical weapons used against Iranian soldiers. The same Arab regimes supporting today’s campaign, he noted, backed that war as well.

“For what? What has Iran done to deserve this relentless aggression?” Abunimah asked, saying Iran “has not attacked other countries” or launched wars. He highlighted years of sanctions that were designed to “create misery,” denouncing what he called the “psychopathic hatred of Iran that exists not just in Israel, but all over the West for decade after decade.”

“Iran never invaded these countries… It’s time to leave Iran in peace,” Abunimah told Drop Site Live.
