Look at all these wimpy "captains of industry" who resort to usurping the state because they can't compete in a fair market. Look at them attack public education because they can't win in the market of ideas. Always brute force instead of excelling on their own merits.

BREAKING: ICE deported a Burmese man who doesn’t speak English to South Sudan—a country he’s not from and on the brink of civil war. He refused to sign English-only papers. They deported him anyway—with 11 others. No hearings. No translators. Court order ignored. This is state-sponsored kidnapping.

There were two "Reigns of Terror," if we would but remember it and consider it; the one wrought murder in hot passion, the other in heartless cold blood; the one lasted mere months, the other had lasted a thousand years; the one inflicted death upon ten thousand persons, the other upon a hundred millions; but our shudders are all for the "horrors" of the minor Terror, the momentary Terror, so to speak; whereas, what is the horror of swift death by the axe, compared with lifelong death from hunger, cold, insult, cruelty, and heart- break?

What is swift death by lightning compared with death by slow fire at the stake? A city cemetery could contain the coffins filled by that brief Terror which we have all been so

diligently taught to shiver at and mourn over; but all France could hardly contain the coffins filled by that older and real Terror-- that unspeakably bitter and awful Terror which none of us has been taught to see in its vastness or pity as it deserves.

Yes, It Is Just Like The Nazis

Hey so remember Anne Frank? The Jewish young girl who hid in an attic and was killed by the Nazis? The emblematic person we think of when we think of victims of the Holocaust?

She did not die in a gas chamber or in a death camp. She died in a 'temporary'

detention center for the mass deportations which preceded the death camps. She was in that camp because a patriotic neighbor ratted her out to the German deportation force. She died, not of a bullet to the back of the head or choking on gas, but of typhus. She contracted typhus because the Nazis couldn't realistically deport people at the rate they wanted to, because before the death camps their infrastructure couldn't handle the sudden influx of ethnic minorities they had decided to imprison, and because they didn't care about the consequences of that so their deportation detention centers were unhygienic and prisoners were underfed and overcrowded.

And she was picked up by the deportation force not because she was an illegal citizen but because, just like the US is doing with asylum seekers, she was part of a formerly recognized class of citizens who were legally redefined to lack citizenship by a new administration.

Anne Frank is exactly like the children who have already died in the United State's detention camps. Exactly. Down to the very last detail. There. Is. Not. A. Single. Difference.

So unless you want to fucking tell me that Anne goddamn Frank was not a victim of the Holocaust, y'all can shut the fuck up with that "stop making concentration camp comparisons, you're diminishing the suffering of the Holocaust" bullshit.

Its also worth noting that her family TRIED to flee to the US and was denied. She was in that camp partly because the US refused to let her refugee family immigrate.

MAGAs serve Trump, not Jesus. They cannot even abide Pope Leo XIV. Somehow, they believe God chose the most hateful and self-serving U.S. president in our nation's history... but not the Pope. They also seem no longer to care about "Freedom!" and the U.S. Constitution they once constantly crowed about. They wear American flag bikinis while they seek to upend the cornerstones of our democracy. They are bereft of any moral compass, compassion, or humanity. These are the facts as evidenced by their choices and actions. It would serve them right if returned #Jesus was among those targeted by their own selfish and hateful policies. That is supposed to be their test, per the Bible they profess as their guiding light while they ignore literally everything their prophet commanded of them. Mike Johnson is a

#Judas. They all are.

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) has introduced a budget that cuts $880 billion from MEDICAID, $300 billion from SNAP, adds $3.7 TRILLION to the national DEBT, all to help fund a $4.5 TRILLION TAX BREAK for the RICH.

Mike calls himself a CHRISTIAN. But, he's literally taking FOOD and HEALTHCARE from those who can LEAST afford it, to GIVE more money to those who don't need it.Well Dan, if Mexicans are ALL DRUG DEALERS AND RAPISTS and you're AFRAID they're coming to TAKE YOUR JOB...What exactly DO YOU DO FOR A LIVING?

What. The. Fuck. The sheer hypocrisy! The utter contempt for constituents. The absolute honesty of their fascist ideology. Ridiculous!
State Sen. Rick Brattin, a Harrisonville Republican, said the passage of Prop A is evidence of the problems with Missouri's initiative petition process, which he said puts major policy decisions in the hands of voters rather than the government they elected to represent them. It should've never gone to the people for a vote, he said.

"This is one of those things, of the problem with direct democracy," Brattin said. "This is exactly what our founders were expressively against when they formed this nation."

Interesting how America first promotes selfish projects. You never see them pushing a campaign to donate blood. They're not opening homeless shelters. They're not providing meals to housebound seniors. Their policies are never constructive. They literally worship death, and wish it on others.
