We the people are the rightful masters of both Congress and the Courts, not to overthrow the Constitution but to overthrow the men who would pervert the Constitution.

The people who contributed to "Project 25" need to be convicted as criminally insane, and their possessions siezed and forfeited.

On the whole, CORPORATIONS have decided that current monetary gains are worth squandering and destroying our planet, and us, the workers. They are out of control, and they think that the GOP is their ticket. They want you to vote for the GOP. (photo from Robert Reich's blog, 9/27/2036)

Following Trump's unhinged, ignorant, and embarrassing rant at the U.N., "United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres, the former prime minister of Portugal, asked the nations of the world to hold fast to a different vision." heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/september-...
He warned that “we are witnessing an extraordinary transfer of power away from governments to a handful of private corporations and individuals,” whose “reach now extends across politics, economies, information flows, technological development, and the civic space on which societies depend.”

A Day for Good Legal News Re Trump's EO for postal service intervention: NO. It will surprise no one with any cerebral material at all, that some SCOTUS justices ("justices" used advisedly) seem quite prepared to approve an unconstitutional Trump EO in 2028.

Capitalism is undoing itself by rejecting regulation and oversight, even their social responsibility. It's no surprise that the public is fed up. I sincerely hope that the 8 democrats who voted with Republicans (see quote) get replaced this fall. robertreich.substack.com/p/president-...

Regarding the rising support for Democratic Socialist candidates. First these are democrats who will hold Trump accountable. Second, listen to Bernie (back in the 1990s): [this post is not about 2028. It's about this November] robertreich.substack.com/p/president-...

Vote at the polling place or through an official ballot box, if you can. The USPS is compromised and suspect - at least for the time being. However you vote, vote all the scamming GOP reps and senators OUT!

Israeli leaders want to kill or forcibly remove every Palestinian from Gaza so it can take over Gaza. Obliterate: 'To remove or destroy completely so as to leave no trace. synonym: annihilate' Genocide: 'The systematic and widespread extermination... of a national, racial..., or ethnic group.

An Inequality Media alert. Musk, who has repeatedly bragged that with him Trump would never have been elected in 2024, is at it again. Trying to buy an election with lies and disinformation, likely especially targeting Democratic Socialists by labeling them as communists.

Exactly this. They're trying so HARD to make it hard to vote, you KNOW they're desperate.

If your vote did not count Trump would not be interfering with the midterms.

Is there a major influence operation going on? Is it to annoy everyone? Or to drum up pro-Israeli sentiment? Are there actually Israelis who need this support while they are bombing palestine? I'm getting INUNDATED with this stuff, via Google advertisements.
