I don’t know about you, but diverting public money to private schools is horse shyt. Especially when theistic indoctrination is a component of doing that. Or, am I mistaken in the notion that religious based private schools don't pay taxes. They shouldn’t get our socialist $’s.

The choice is clear. If you want a Government that cares about all Americans, vote Democratic. If you want a White Christian Nationalist Autocracy and are willing to kill fellow Americans to get it, vote Republican.

BREAKING: A massive, 50-year study by the London School of Economics finds that a half century of tax cuts for the rich completely FAILED to trickle down to the American working class and middle class — and only made the rich richer. RT TO EXPOSE THE REPUBLICAN TRICKLE-DOWN SCAM!

We started this account in 2017 because the world needed to learn the truth about Trump’s psychiatric condition. But with the way corporate interests are influencing the media, little accounts like ours may become the only place to hear the truth, period.

I was there on January 6 there will never ever be another Jan 6 in Washington. The only reason they pulled it off is they had cooperation from all branches of government. In any other city in this country the National Guard would’ve shut them down immediately. think about that

Next month I am traveling from NYC to Chicago, the 3rd busiest air route in the country, which takes 19.5 hours via Amtrak on a daily train. This is the same distance as Beijing to Shanghai, which takes only 4.3 hours and leaves every 20 minutes. This country can do better.

so this guy is working for this “Christian” production company and asks me to help him find a Hollywood area studio. I asked him what he needed and he said “one without homeless around” and I was like, exactly what kind of Christian are you?

Totally prescient. Of the many things Reagan did to fuck up our country, two have remained outstanding. He put us in debt permanently (with an essential assist from Nixon taking us off the gold standard), and forever married anti-American extremist Christianity and Republicans.

Kids should be required to read the Diary of Anne Frank and also Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee. How else will we stop history repeating over and over
Quote Tweet
So, help me out here, the F your feelings crowd doesn’t want their kids reading the Diary of Anne Frank, because they’re afraid — it may hurt their feelings?

In 1971, 175 firms had lobbyists in D.C. By 1982, nearly 2,500 had them. By the 1990s corporations employed 61K people to lobby for them. That's 100 lobbyists+ for each Congress member. We take the corporate domination of our politics for granted. It wasn't always like this.

Rand Paul went on Fox News and said he doesn’t have”confidence” that Christopher Wray’s FBI is there to “protect us.” Rand voted to confirm Trump’s appointment of Wray to head the FBI. Rand was also listed as an official Russian propagandist by Ukraine’s Foreign Ministry:

My 13-month-old just experienced her first active shooter lockdown at daycare due to an alleged gunman at the mall next door. The safety plan involves putting the babies in rolling cribs to escape; they are too young to walk but not too young to be shot at in America.
