while we are living thru our collectively self-imposed political and sociological hellscape; if we survive as a representative Democracy and restore some semblance of sanity to our daily lives, I imagine that the documentaries relating all of this shit are going to be absolutely lit

Roger Marshall charged his patients 18% annual interest on their unpaid bills. His bakery bill for $678.75 was due six years ago. At 18% interest compounded annually, the total he'd owe would be at least $1,800. Marshall just paid the bakery $1,300—far less than what his patients would owe.

This isn’t just about Trump. The entire Republican Party is on board with Trump‘s attempt to destroy American democracy. When Trump is gone, that’s not going to be the end of the problem. We’ll still have to deal with the fact that one of our two major political parties is lost to treason.

Incels and rapists stick together, if you ever see a man defending rapists or victim blaming or shifting blame to women who have been raped or assaulted; that's somebody you need to keep an eye on for your public safety and away from yourself / children / and any women.

"We said to him, 'You can do whatever you want to Russia, don't hit the refineries' ... And what does he do? He goes and hits the diesel fuel. He can do whatever he wants, but he can't do that." Trump would be much less angry if Ukraine had, say, bombed a building full of schoolchildren.

Yes, Mike Tyson is a convicted rapist, who is supporting Donald Trump. Tyson was indicted by a grand jury on August 30, 1991, and subsequently convicted on February 10, 1992, of raping Desiree Washington in Indianapolis, Indiana.

Let me see if I understand this . . . 1. The U.S. is at war with Iran. 2. Russia is helping Iran in that war. 3. The U.S. is now giving Russia money that it can use to help Iran destroy U.S. bases and kill U.S. troops. Donald is smart & patriotic like that.

One day after the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops and the National Association of Evangelicals came out against the Pentagon’s plan to livestream an execution, Pope Leo has published a tweet reiterating the Catholic Church’s opposition to the death penalty.

The death penalty is inadmissible because it is an attack on the inviolability and dignity of the person. The common good can be safeguarded and the requirements of justice can be met without recourse to capital punishment: effective systems of detention have been developed that protect citizens while at the same time do not completely deprive those who are guilty of the possibility of redemption.

I know everyone’s jaded and exhausted by the continual parade of madness, but this is the president of US openly inciting racist violence against an entire community of immigrants. (w/ alt text)
The once Great State of Minnesota is being taken over by Somali Immigrants. There is Violence, Murder, and Mayhem all over the State. The people of Minnesota must fight back. You have been robbed, and abandoned by your State Government. Your Governor is an incompetent thief who doesn't want to get involved. He just wants to get out of town with as much as he can steal, and then, lead a quiet life. The Somalians should not be allowed to get away with what they are doing.
They view you as weak and stupid people. Fight back Minnesota, fight back! If you need, the Federal Government will come to your rescue.
Governor Tim Walz, and Mayor of Minneapolis, Jacob Frey, must immediately ask for Federal help — and leave the rest to us! President DONALD J. TRUMP
