Replying to @TheRomanoReport
My family eventually escaped from occupation at by armed RU communist soldiers. My POV is different from those born in America. We got here bc of DDE's program for HU refugees. Let's get real. Thee problem is the Republican Party after Eisenhower, a compassionate, honorable leader for the People. After Kennedy assassination (was RU involved after Cuban Missile Crisis?), GOP was epically pissed off after Southerner LBJ enacted Civil Rights laws, making amends for cruel, racist Dixiecrats & deplorable Christian KKK. The aftermath was GOP's "Southern Strategy" to woo racists to build their (unpopular) base. Nixon also betrayed US by lying to prolong Vietnam War. Fmr actor Reagan decided to blame the Govt for wasting the Public's tax $$ on the Public, said Treasury money should be given to (subsidize) corporate "job creators" in the form of Tax cuts. Problem is another lie, nothing trickles down. Wealth is redistributed to the Rich; Fed min wage is still $7.25. Defense Dept/MIC became spending priority rather than Public's HEW. Bush 43 changed world forever by starting 2 foreign wars (Iraq w/ lies abt WMD, Cheney/Halliburton wanted oil), 'shock & awe' deployment supposed to be quick. We were in Afghanistan for 20 years. He lied abt strong economy (Great Recession), brought in his lawyer who helped Bush steal Y2K election from GE winner, Al Gore & made Roberts SC Chief Justice. Scalia changed 2nd Amendment to include personal use of guns. NRA became a major GOP donor. Oh, can't forget Bush let the Assault Weapons Ban sunset bc it was working, therefore wasn't needed. Trump lies abt everything (WaPo counted, but NORMALIZED 30K+ lies by a sitting Prez, as if no big deal. We knew Trump was Putin's assette at the Helsinki betrayal. He didn't care abt evidentiary proof, bc of Putin's "strong, powerful denial."

Congress is in his pocket. The Justice Department is in his pocket. Only the judiciary and a free press is standing in his way, and he's having the DOJ and FCC attack them. If we don't see this as the 5 alarm fire that it is, maybe we deserve for the Republic to fall.

This is the direct consequence of malignant patriarchy, GOP white male supremacy, misogyny personified by the overturning of Roe v Wade, driving the attempts to silence women's voices, seen but not heard, treated as nothing more than domestic suppliers of cheap labor and cheap thrills for billionaire sexual predators. We fought for the right to own our own bodies, "My Body, My Choice." Supreme Court, regressive Republicans have brought us back to the days of boys & men believing in "Your Body, My Choice." The rapists go free while women are jailed for getting an abortion; some may die from being denied necessary medical procedure to save the life of the Mother. Since when is an unborn fetus more important to GOP men than the life of a Mother, female friend, relative or neighbor? Women's bodies are personal matters, period. We are not chattel, not subjects in service to men's egos, genocidal land-grabbing power-madness or religious biases.

Trump vowed to pass legislation imposing the #DeathPenalty on large scale drug dealers, human traffickers and anyone who kills a law enforcement officer. (Yet, he pardons drug dealers🙄) This was part of Trump’s journey to campaign in 35 of the most competitive battleground races in the final sprint to November’s midterm elections. “We will pass the death penalty for large-scale drug dealers, human traffickers, and anyone who kills a police officer or law enforcement official,” Trump said. What about being a pedophile, r*pist, a traitor, and committing war crimes in Iran where you killed 120 innocent schoolchildren? What consequences do you deserve @realDonaldTrump?!

The United States has had over 160 years to label the Ku Klux Klan a terrorist organization and still hasn’t. The government dismantling the Black Panther Party while the head of the Klan is currently giving interviews tells you everything you need to know about this country.

When is enough enough? Seriously. When are we going to stop pretending like these people are victims?
Israeli Finance Minister Smotrich just said the quiet part out loud. He called the operation in southern Lebanon an “unprecedented thorough cleansing,” said the people there have nowhere to return to, and bragged that the world isn’t stopping them. That’s not a denial. That’s an admission. Every claim that “ethnic cleansing isn’t happening” just got debunked by one of their own ministers—on camera, proudly.

If having the FBI comb through the Epstein files to prevent the world from discovering that you are, in fact, a pedophile isn’t grounds to remove a sitting President and his entire administration, then I don’t know what is.
NEW: I have obtained descriptions of NINE FBI training videos showing agents were instructed to flag Trump's name in the Epstein files for supervisory review. My latest: muellershewrote.com/p/exclus…

Look at this disgusting, slimy South Korea. 🤮🤮🤮 South Korea is supplying fuel to Russia using sanctioned tankers to offset shortages caused by attacks on oil refineries. In total, seven tankers made 14 voyages to Russia. Three of these vessels are subject to sanctions imposed by the UK and the EU. To conceal their routes, they reported false destination ports (such as Japan or Singapore).

This should outrage every American. This is the president of the United States telling Iran to bomb American cities. I live in Los Angeles, but that’s beside the point. Tommorow it could be your city. My fellow Americans, this is not normal. This is not funny. This behavior should ring alarm bells for us all!
Trump: "With the war, it's just artificial. It's a little bit high. It's a small price to pay ... let them take out Los Angeles, let them take out San Diego. This is a very small price to pay."

Trump actually said that he won't send Federal aid to non-Republican states. This is a violation of a presidents sworn duties per Article II, section 3 of the Constitution to "Take care that the laws be faithfully executed!" This means to uphold the law without political bais.

This is the kind of story that should end careers. Six American soldiers were killed when an Iranian drone struck Port Shuaiba in Kuwait. Army officials had been warned REPEATEDLY the port was vulnerable, had inadequate protection against drones, and that safer locations had been proposed. They didn't care and kept the operation there anyway. Then the attack came. The medical response was reportedly so unprepared that some soldiers were using their phones to Google nearby hospitals. Yes, Googling hospitals. Wounded troops later faced additional problems getting properly identified and treated as combat casualties. The Army finished its investigation months ago but still hasn't publicly released it. While they go on and on about supporting the troops, where are the answers for these families? Why did their loved ones get left out to die?
