If you missed our LIVE broadcast of today’s Rage Against The War Machine rally in D.C., we did a marathon 8 hours of coverage.

Watch the replay here: ⬇️☮️

@RageAgainstWar_ @RealCPIUSA @RealCalebMaupin @RealScottRitter @LPNational @PeoplesParty_US

Sorry the sound/picture quality is pretty poor in the first hour, we picked up a better quality camera/mic around the 1 hour mark…
Given this crap economy 💸 and the hassle of flying ✈️ nowadays, more people were inclined to join this rally virtually — we understand.

It’s important to have a good quality livestream for those who couldn’t attend in person. We did our best to bring you the entire lineup! ☮️
If you don’t have 8 hours to watch the whole rally, I’ll guide you to some highlights w/ time stamps in this thread 🧵:

@DianeSare’s fiery speech starts at around 1 hour, 6 minutes into the broadcast.
The wonderful @ReadeAlexandra Tara Reade at 1 hour, 14 minutes. 👏🏼☮️
@jacksonhinklle starts at 1 hour, 18 minutes. 👍☮️
Apologies to @ChrisLynnHedges and @MaxBlumenthal who spoke early in the day. We only had sound and no video for their speeches. This was remedied later (sorry, gentlemen. Great speeches anyway!) 👏🏼
Former @GreenPartyUS presidential (in 2012 & 2016) candidate @DrJillStein speaks at 1 hour, 25 minutes 👏🏼☮️
@geraldcelente at 1 hour, 34 minutes 👏🏼☮️
Loved Gerald’s call for a people’s referendum on this war:

“You want war? Let the people vote on it! Let the PEOPLE vote 🗳! Not these clowns in Congress who want to send others to die. They do not represent us!” 🇺🇸
Redacted correspondent @dancohen3000 speaks at 1 hour, 43 minutes 👏🏼☮️
A little musical interlude & sing-a-long at 1 hour, 48 minutes 🎶

“And it’s 1,2,3, what are we fighting for?” ☮️
@jimmy_dore burns the stage down at 1 hour, 52 minutes! 🔥 👏🏼☮️
I don’t know much about Jordan Page other than he’s a mighty fine guitar picker.

Does anyone know who wrote the song he performs at 2 hours, 23 minutes? Quite beautiful… 🎶
@scotthortonshow speaks at 2 hours, 39 minutes 👏🏼☮️
The amazing @AnnWright46 speech is at 2 hours, 48 minutes 👏🏼☮️
I just love @AnnWright46. She’s such a fireball — haven’t seen her in about 15 years.

Lovely to see her onstage today, giving the warmongers hell.

Great speech, lady! You have been a hero in my book for a long time.
At 2 hours, 52 minutes it’s Craig Pasta Jardula, @yopasta
co-host of @theconvocouch 👏🏼☮️
Hearing @yopasta read from Gen. Smedley Butler’s “War is a Racket” book 📕 from 1935 on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial today gave me goosebumps.

Smedley Butler stood on that same hallowed ground during the 1932 Bonus Army March on Washington…
Really nice set of tunes from @JordanPageMusic and @queentatiana at 2 hours, 10 minutes. 👏🏼☮️🎤🎸🎶
@davidcnswanson of @WorldBeyondWar speaks at 3 hours, 7 minutes into the broadcast 👏🏼☮️
@JosBtrigga Jose Vega takes the stage at 3 hours, 15 minutes.

First time I’ve ever heard Jose speak when he wasn’t shouting at a crooked politician 😂.
@TheGrayzoneNews @anyaparampil spoke at 3 hours, 19 minutes. 👏🏼☮️
@anyaparampil gave the CENSORED @RealScottRitter a much-deserved shoutout during her speech. Thanks, Anya! 👍
And a shoutout at 3 hours, 21 minutes to @medeabenjamin who was also CENSORED from speaking at this rally (by her own organization, @codepink!) 🤷🏻‍♀️
@DanielLMcAdams, co-host of the @RonPaul Liberty Report, speaks at 3 hours, 27 minutes. 👏🏼☮️
Former Democratic Congressman and 2004 presidential candidate @Dennis_Kucinich speaks 3 hours and 31 minutes into the broadcast… 👏🏼☮️
Kucinich read the “alter or abolish” paragraph of the Declaration of Independence and shouted:

“We must change this government before it ends us! We must change the way we are governed!”

Yes, with the CONSENT of the governed — as our founders intended! 🇺🇸
How about a round of applause for soldier, former Democratic Congresswoman, and 2020 presidential candidate @TulsiGabbard at 3 hours, 47 minutes 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼☮️🇺🇸
Apologies, the stream cut out for 3 minutes during Tulsi’s speech!

Dammit! 🤬🤷🏻‍♀️
And at last, the man you been waiting for … the prince of peace, Dr. @RonPaul 👏🏼🇺🇸☮️ 🗽 at 3 hours, 56 minutes
You probably already know this, but Dr. Paul was a 6-term Congressman from the 14th District of Texas, ran for president in 1998, 2008, and 2012.

Just think… you could have had President Paul, Americans.

Best president we never had!
“If you want to have a war, you ought to have a vote 🗳 — and the only people allowed to vote are those ages 18-24!”

@RonPaul at the @RageAgainstWar_ rally
@rogerwaters is touring overseas and could not attend the @RageAgainstWar_ rally in person. He made this video in solidarity. ✊🏼

Watch at 4 hours, 12 minutes
☮️👏🏼🇺🇸 🇬🇧🌎🎸🎤❤️
All we are saying is 🎶🎸🎤☮️
The call-in ☎️ portion of the show starts at 4 hours, 27 minutes.

(Please don’t call the number on the screen! This is pre-recorded from yesterday)
Sorry for the typo. @RonPaul ran for president in 1988, not 1998!

Scott Ritter’s appearance at today's Rage Against the War Machine rally D.C. was canceled this week.

Organizers said it was because “his criminal convictions are despicable and contradict our values."

Ritter sets the record straight in this interview:
Part 2 of this exclusive interview -- in which Scott Ritter addresses the allegations fully and responds to his critics for the first time -- is here:

Part 3 will air tonight after the Rage Against War rally tonight at 7 PM Eastern.

Those who say #LBJ killed #JFK do a great disservice to both men.

Despite his youth, Kennedy was in frail health with an illness that could kill him. He chose his successor with care. Johnson was the man he selected, over many objections.

As he said himself, LBJ was HIS man.
Source: New York Times coverage of Kennedy’s announcement of VP nominee, Democratic National Convention. July 15, 1960.

#JFKSaturday

Sen. Kennedy said many times throughout the primary season of 1960 that because of LBJ’s many years as Senate Majority Leader, “Lyndon Johnson is the best qualified man to run the country of all the candidates in this race, including myself.”

This is how long I’ve been protesting war:

My first antiwar protest was 1991, a time when my fellow #GenX college comrades were being shipped off to fight in #Iraq.

President #Bush called it “a momentous year for this generation.”

We did not agree!

12 years later, on another cold February day, I once again went to the streets, voicing my opposition to his son’s war in Iraq:

I protested the war in #Afghanistan at a time when very few did.

Most Americans thought that one was “the good war.”

We kept the protests going, anyway… for 20 years!

John McAfee, 2016: “I have multiple teenage girlfriends who I pay to 💩 in my mouth.”

Libertarian Party: “cool, we want you to run for President!”

Scott Ritter, 2023: “I never touched an underage girl in my life.”

#Libertarians: “pedophile! Shut up!”
Maybe @RealScottRitter should seek the nomination of the @LPNational , just to eff with them, lol 😝
The stories about the late John McAfee’s wild sexual escapades may or may not have been true. He too was targeted (and eventually murdered, I believe) by the Deep State.

We gave John the benefit of the doubt, and should give Ritter the same courtesy.

If you are wondering why the @RageAgainstWar_ rally is under such intense attacks (from without and within), you need only look at #7 on our list of demands.

Pay close attention to that as you watch this @ChrisLynnHedges interview on the @KimIversenShow
Calling for the total abolishment of the CIA is noble (and needed!) but … expect the Agency to unleash hellfire against any person or organization calling for the end of their global mafia.

As sure as day follows night and night follows day…
The last president who tried to abolish the CIA got scattered to the four winds in Dallas. #JFK

Exactly 40 years before the U.S. blew up the #Nordstream pipelines, the CIA blew up another pipeline carrying natural gas from #Russia to #Europe.

This thread is about the Trans-Siberian pipeline sabotage of 1982 -- the largest non-nuclear explosion ever on Planet Earth.
Thomas Reed, senior US national security official, claims in his book “At The Abyss” that the U.S. allowed the USSR to steal pipeline control software from a Canadian company. This software included a Trojan Horse that caused a major explosion of the Trans-Siberian gas pipeline.
The Trojan ran during a pressure test on the pipeline but doubled the usual pressure, causing a tremendous explosion.
