I have lived in Texas for over 20 years. I have been amazed at the buffoons, cons, and crooks Texans will vote for as long as there is an (R) behind their name. Case in point, Texas voted for lying Ted Cruz (R) over Beto O'Rourke (D). #VoteBlue #VoteTalarico

Protests Erupt In Athens As Rubio Arrives For US-Greece Talks - PopularResistance.Org
Mass protests were held in Athens against US Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s visit to Greece, as his trip coincides with the sixth round of the Greece-US Strategic Dialogue and expected agreements on new US weapons purchases by Athens. A large number of demonstrators, including representatives of trade unions, student associations, and political parties, gathered in central Athens on Tuesday and marched toward the US embassy as part of an anti-war rally held ahead of Rubio’s visit, according to Greek media. Dimitris Koutsoumbas, leader of the Communist Party of Greece, participated in the demonstration.

The MAGA regime recently killed the largest ancient 250 year old “Grandmother” Cottonwood tree in Arizona’s indigenous territory just to expand the orange felon’s fucking wall. I’ll never forgive anyone who chose this evil.

Pete Hegseth is treating death and cruelty as entertainment. The news of a livestreamed execution for the Fort Hood murderer is beneath our military. I have no sympathy for Nidal Hasan, he massacred 13 innocent people in '09, but justice is solemn, it shouldn't be a spectacle. Link below ⬇️

Regardless of the legality of posting armed national guard members at drop boxes, whether the boxes were open yet, or whether drop boxes qualify as polling sites under the law; the optics are what matter. Lawful or not, it’s overt, intentional voter suppression.

This afternoon in Marble Hill, a New Yorker was shot by an ICE agent in a residential neighborhood. Early reports indicate agents surrounded him and a 5-year-old child in his car before firing multiple rounds. We believe the child was physically unharmed.

This is an unconscionable and incredibly serious situation. I have called the President; when we speak I will demand that he ends all ICE enforcement actions in our city. I will not stand by while ICE agents terrorize our communities.

Our thoughts are with the injured New Yorker and his family tonight. We are praying for his recovery.

Get ICE out of our neighborhoods. Get ICE out of our hospitals. Get ICE off our streets. Get ICE away from our children.

Abolish ICE.

Trump has denied disaster relief for Illinois following severe storms in August. Trump approved a request from Indiana for damage resulting from the same storms. One is a "blue state." The other is a "red state." No other president has politicized natural disasters the way that Trump has.
