Not being allowed to hand water to people in line to vote no matter who they are voting for, while being allowed to hand people million dollar checks to get their vote, is the most American thing ever.

There is no “novel legal theory” about a third term, as some reporters are parroting. It’s not legal, and the idea of seizing permanent power isn’t a “theory,” it’s just what dictators do.

This is Winston Churchill visiting the White House during World War II. Funny how he isn’t wearing a suit either. Almost like he was a wartime leader defending his country from being slaughtered and wiped out by an authoritarian aggressor.

OK, nerdy I know - but when I was a boy my older sister's husband, basically as a PhD student at Okla State U, started working on how to contain hydrogen plasma/fusion. "If we can get it right" he said "a teaspoon of the stuff would fuel the whole country."

After 50 years in prison, Leonard Peltier is free. BUT In some US counties in Native lands, MURDERS of Indian WOMEN are 10X HIGHER than for all races (DoJ). HALF of Native American WOMEN report sexual assault, a THIRD report RAPE during their lifetime, 2.5 times HIGHER than for white women (NIJ)

Van Hollen: "Can you imagine FDR in the middle of WW2 saying to Churchill, 'you know, we're not going to continue to help you until you turn over half of your coal and mineral reserves.' That's not how you behave when you want to support a friend who's under attack by an authoritarian like Putin."

My old Quaker Meeting joined the lawsuit to stop ICE police from breaking in/arresting people in worship. We protect refugee families seeking safety & better lives. ICE will have to face elderly Quaker women (our toughest defensive line-women) - we'll keep working to protect the strangers among us.

Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: “We grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.”

After the assault on the Capital Jimmy Carter wrote a clear, cogent, and insightful piece in the NYT explaining what it meant for our politics and our country - as powerful today as then.

The alleviation of women's abuse "is made less likely by the mandated subservience of women by Christian fundamentalists. What is especially disappointing...is the docile acceptance by so many strong Christian women of their subjugation & restricted role." - Jimmy Carter (RIP)

President Jimmy Carter has passed away at the age of 100. He was a symbol of what is best about America: kindness, compassion, duty and service. He will be missed, most of all by those who long for a return of that kind of country, led by a man with such strength of character.

I seem to have upset the Nigel Farage fan club - so let me be clear. This man sows hate, lies and division. He is a grifter and a conman. He does not represent the vast majority of Britons. Repost if you agree P.s. multiculturalism is great.

King Charles who loves killing foxes, birds, and badgers has been made Patron of the RSPCA. King Charles used his power to block a ban on Fox Hunting and to make sure it is the joke ban we currently have. RT if the RSPCA should remove him.

In 1970 the UK and Norway were roughly equal, almost no debt, and owned all their Public Services. Now the UK owns nothing and has £3TRILLION of debt. While Norway still owns everything and has the equivilant per person of £10tn. That's how privatisation 'works'.

I remember the shock of that day - the whole country in mourning - and the government (left & right) got busy and tightly controlled guns - and no more children died. The UK is capable of screwing up politically (see Liz Truss & Brexit), but this wasn't political, it was about the lives of children.
