Every day America is shredded a little more and will take far more to rebuild than to tear down…at some point the cancer will end any hope of a return to any form of functioning democracy. @Mulchavelli3 days agoDOGE did achieve their goals just not their stated goals.

Cull Fake Democrats
These fake dems will regret this and hopefully be replaced. Very disappointed in Ted Lieu and Eugene Vindman, and several other better-known democrats. When the best places to live on planet Earth, those “Nordic Model” mixed economies, are essentially socialist with all the things America does not have (universal healthcare, free tuition, high taxes onContinue reading “Cull Fake Democrats”
Suckers and Losers
Trump Was Always Going to Betray Veterans By Sarah Jones, senior writer for Intelligencer who covers politics and labor In filmmaker Paul Verhoeven’s adaptation of Starship Troopers, military service guarantees citizenship in a futuristic — and fascist — regime. The policy is simple: Join the war on the alien bugs or suffer a second-class life. Verhoeven’s satire workedContinue reading “Suckers and Losers”
Us vs Them or Each Against All
More confused everyday. I thought “Woke” just meant to be aware of white supremacist policies and worldviews affecting society. Now Chris is telling me, no, it is bad. Some on the left seem to be defecting to the right (not Chris). I was all in for Harris and now….after listening to Thomas Frank I seemContinue reading “Us vs Them or Each Against All”

God Made Donald
Thanks to Chauncey DeVega In this age of intense political and religious division, many Christian nationalists have convinced themselves that they have a special claim on America. That simply is not true. The United States was not founded as a “Christian nation.” The Constitution enshrines a clear separation of church and state, and no versionContinue reading “God Made Donald”
Chauncey Tells It
“The enduring power of old-fashioned biological racism in American society is made even more terrifying given how Trump is now openly channeling Hitler, complete with threats to remove the “vermin” from the country and complaints of how non-white people are “poison” in the blood of the nation. How Trump and the MAGA movement and largerContinue reading “Chauncey Tells It”
