Wanting lower property insurance and healthcare for everyday families isn't un-American; it’s what working people deserve. They can take their tech-bro cash and their weird, intrusive agenda somewhere else, because I'm not going any damn place. /3

The most ordinary man imaginable came to my home state to tell me to ‘get out of America’ while he & Absent Ashley enjoyed the comfort of buildings my ancestors helped build. Imagine standing on the shoulders of the ppl who built this country & then telling their descendants they don’t belong here/2

I do not think we should have a death penalty. I don't think it is any kind of deterrent. I think it's barbaric. I think it makes us all worse people. All of us. And we just don't have to do this to ourselves. We could abolish it, and we should.

This kind of take made a Rolling Stone writer so mad they wrote a whole piece about it.

At this point, though, if someone contends they've never even heard of
"Choosin' Texas" or Langley, it may say more about the listener than the song.
Or, for that matter, what they want to project to the world. With incessant news coverage alongside chart and playlist presence, it's pretty difficult to still claim total ignorance on this one.
Perhaps there is a deeper reason why people say they haven't heard the song and feel the need to make it known: cultural cachet.

To be scrupulously fair, Ken Paxton merely *OFFERED* a one-day sentence as a plea deal. The offender, Adam Hoffman, who acknowledged his guilt. He DID end up serving 60 days, but only because a judge ordered it. Paxton WANTED him to serve a single day. www.texastribune.org/2026/05/19/k...

I looked up "Choosin' Texas" to see what this whole discourse is about. I might have heard it before, or maybe I'm thinking that because it sounds the same as every other country pop song.

Sure, immigration policy is a legitimate matter of debate...but whether people from certain countries or of certain faiths can ever truly become "Americans" is only a question if one thinks culture is connected to genetics....which was the logic behind the "final solution" to "the Jewish Problem."

Say what you will about Ralph Nader's later presidential campaigns, but he spent decades building organizations & doing advocacy between & outside elections - like his work in Public Citizen, & consumer-safety. I don't see that same kind of infrastructure around Jill Stein's presidential campaigns.

Kala @kalasaurus.bsky.social 1h

Jill Stein runs every four years despite having no realistic path to win the presidency. She campaigns, receives a small share of the vote, and then disappears until the next presidential cycle. This electoral strategy doesn't change US policy if that's the goal.

Jill Stein runs every four years despite having no realistic path to win the presidency. She campaigns, receives a small share of the vote, and then disappears until the next presidential cycle. This electoral strategy doesn't change US policy if that's the goal.

“We are clear that Kamala Harris is the only candidate who can block Donald Trump and his anti-democratic, authoritarian policies from the White House,” they wrote.

The signatories include Green parties from several countries in which they govern as part of coalitions, such as Germany, Ireland, Belgium and Spain. The parties said there was “no link” between the Greens in Europe and the US.

“The US Greens are no longer a member of the global organisation of Green parties,” they wrote. “In part, this fissure resulted from their relationship with parties with authoritarian leaders, and serious policy differences on key issues including Russia’s full scale assault on Ukraine.”

The US electoral college system disadvantages small parties such as the Greens, which attract 1-2% of support in opinion polls. But their influence could still sway the overall outcome by drawing away support for the two main parties in key battleground states.

As of 30 October, polls put Harris at 47% and Trump at 46% – but analysis shows even minute shifts in voter behaviour can decide who ends up in the White House.

A Walla Walla, WA newspaper editor in 1951 advocated rooting out the Marxists and Communists, claiming that the Democratic president had been too attentive to the rights of minorities and insufficiently respectful of the rights of White Christians. That editor was Syd Pierce, an antisemitic fascist.

given our country over into the hands of MINORITIES, without regard to the rights of the majority White Christian Constitutional Americans. Mr. Truman has con-doned, rather than condemned, racketeering and corruption in high places. He has NEVER made any real attempt to ROOT OUT
Marxist-communists
from govern-
ment.

especially despicable as DSA and left candidates have been very successful this cycle, focusing on a real left program for change. meanwhile the only thing Stein does is help fascists. it's like it's her one true passion.

This “paid for by the US government” stuff is just a pure flex. He’s rubbing it in our face the fact that he has near absolute power and we don’t. He can do what he wants. “What are you gonna do about it?” taunts the traitor president. What are we going to do, indeed?
