Catherine Connolly is the 10th President of Ireland. She has generally been associated with the Irish left and has emphasized social justice, housing, Irish neutrality, diplomacy, and climate issues.
SHE WAS THE 9TH OF 14 CHILDREN. HER MOTHER DIED WHEN SHE WAS 9. SHE WORKED AS A CLEANER BEFORE BECOMING A PSYCHOLOGIST, THEN A BARRISTER. SHE LOST AN ELECTION BY JUST 17 VOTES. THEN SHE WON IRELAND'S PRESIDENCY WITH THE MOST FIRST-PREFERENCE VOTES IN ITS HISTORY. THIS IS CATHERINE CONNOLLY.

He’s obviously removing all anti-trump leaders ahead of a ‘national emergency’ so they can halt elections and seize permanent control.

We are facing a psychiatric emergency. We are facing a constitutional emergency. Anyone with eyes and ears who’s paying attention can see it. Our republic is teetering. The good news: We the people have the power to stop this accelerating descent before it’s too late.

At a time in history when the most influential leaders of the U.S. need to stand up loudly and clearly for the rule of law, democracy, and decency, they are leading the charge in the opposite direction — fawning over the most dangerous authoritarian America has ever witnessed. Do not forget this.

Flat screen TVs, 150 channels, bread and circuses in steroids and a mythos that we can survive this. Turn the other cheek, bite the lip, don’t invite trouble. Aggressive stupidity. Head in the sand. The only way the bad guys win is that they cheat, which they are really, really good at.

I absolutely agree with this! It’s so sad that millions don’t. It shouldn’t have to happen to you for it to matter 💙
Just becase something doesn't affect you personally doesnt mean you shouldn't care about it.
We, as humans should desire to see others Free from suffering.

The overall theme of what is left of our country and society, is that we are a culture of rapists, pedophiles, lawless bullies, liars, and traitors. Almost like they are virtues. The Cornell gang-rape mess, privilege, the Epstein files? The dots aren’t tough to connect.

There is nothing worse and epidemic than the exploitation of the obviously vulnerable.

Compensate the traumatized, vulnerable victim of this abomination. I don’t care whether the victim got drunk, drugged herself. She didn’t bargain for being assaulted by 7 “boys” as she went to a massive misogynist fraternity. Expel all of the scions, fire the administrators who “dealt” with this.

Let me get this straight. The Cornell victim valiantly approached the obviously biased Cornell police to say she was voluntarily gang raped?

Fear, to save ourselves, fear to step up and to tell the truth, is corrosive to society and to ourselves. The deeper it sinks into the capillaries, the deeper we are lost. Worse, we don’t even know who are friends are, and the more powerful evil obtains.

What works for the devolving GQP, which worships a genocidal madman, is the faux anger, rage, based on lies, grifting, treachery, cruelty, hypocrisy. When are the good folks going to be pissed off based on truth, justice, and kindness? As a chorus? When? Anger, rage, is, sadly, a litmus for truth.
