On the first day of the 118th Congress, in a performance not witnessed by this nation in nearly 170 years, the House Republicans chose to commit a mass murder-suicide of their last vestige of electoral political power, putting on a humiliating show to the world… and offering massive relief to all who worried about the damage they might do to the USA over the next two years.

We learned yesterday that the only true destruction these MAGA-heads are capable of now is taking their own running leap off the cliff of the Capitol Dome…

1. Let me say this again to those who care deeply about the Ukrainians & want to help them by starting World War III: Since 1945, whenever the US goes to war, it’s never good. Media, politicians and elites—stop manipulating the public by showing the Ukrainians as weak… 2. …and defenseless, armed only with Molotov cocktails, rakes and hoes and wooden guns. The same video of the same bombed buildings on a continuous loop. The same line of stalled Russian tanks. Over and over. Why are u trying to drag us into a war? From Vietnam to Iraq we know…

Kabul, Saigon.
The fall, once again.
America loses another war.
Our longest war.
“We’re #1!!”
We spent over $2 trillion.
We sacrificed over 2,300 American lives to invade a country where Bin Laden was never, nowhere, to be found. Bush said he had no interest in capturing him …Obama’s team found him in a house just down the road from Pakistan’s “West Point”. Who woulda guessed!

WE are the invaders. The Taliban are not invaders — they’re Afghans — it’s their country! They’re religious nuts. We know what that looks like — we have our own!…

Happy Juneteenth Day! We now have a permanent American day to remember our history of kidnapping, raping, and forcing enslaved Black ppl to build our young country. This won’t be a holiday where Macy’s will hold a “50%-off White Sale.” No, this is a powerful moment we are in... ...Juneteenth Day will not truly be complete until the Voting Rights bills pass, states stop passing voter suppression laws, cops stop shooting Black citizens, we end our prison-industrial complex, a white family’s net worth is no longer 10 times greater than a Black family’s...

Now 36 hours after the heartbreaking death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, we must do exactly what she would do under these circumstances. She took us this far - farther than any of us thought possible. Now it’s up to us to finish her work— protect her seat AND our Democracy... I’ve posted today a 2nd RUMBLE episode on our Emergency Podcast System. I offer a series of actions we must immediately take to prevent Trump & McConnell from poaching another Supreme Court seat, thus ensuring a right-wing court for many decades 2 come(aka, the rest of my life).

Trump —

Quit.
Leave.
You knew.
You lied.
You’re not stupid. You’re not incompetent. You’ve always known EXACTLY what you were doing. Which makes you a psychopath. Which makes what you’ve done a criminal act. You had the power to save a hundred thousand lives... But it was more fun to see how many u could just let die. You held the power of life & death in your hands and it made you God-like and it felt good. You were once that troubled boy who liked to watch the fly as you plucked its wings off one by one. The power felt exhilarating.

And sometimes change happens faster than predicted, almost (in historical terms) in the blink of an eye. In 2004, on the day of the presidential election which gave Bush a second term, the majority of voters in 11 states passed constitutional amendments...

I know it’s bothersome that I’m speaking some Awful Truths & asking these questions, so I’ll just continue:

Can someone name the building in the US that the “bad guy” General Soleimani ordered blown up?

How bout the civilian US airliner that “bad actor” Soleimani had shot down? I can’t seem to remember exactly where Soleimani’s Revolutionary Guard landed on our shores. Was it New Jersey? Miami Beach? Big Sur? Where did they invade our sovereign nation?

Help me remember the American cities bombed by Iranian bomber planes—Boise? Tulsa? Wichita? Newark?

Happy Rosa Parks Day! On this day, 64yrs ago, Rosa Parks, a black seamstress in Montgomery, Alabama, refused to move when she was ordered to give up her seat on a city bus to a white person and was thus arrested - December 1, 1955. This moment ignited the civil rights movement... ImageImageImage ... Rosa was the secretary of the local NAACP. A 24-year old preacher, Martin Luther King, Jr., would then lead a year-long+ bus boycott with tens of thousands of black Montgomery citizens. The Supreme Court sided with them. The death threats against Rosa Parks were so intense... Image

Media, please — start using the correct language when describing people & events. Like u do whenever you say “El Chapo” you always precede it with “drug lord.” Do the same for these:
1. Always refer to a “school shooting” as “an NRA-supported act of gun terror & school terrorism” 2. Always refer to Rudy Giuliani as “Trump’s PERSONAL Attorney. ” Just saying his name keeps Trump’s crimes one step separated from the actual criminal.

Trump has ordered an end to California’s strict car pollution standards and wants to force Californians to buy the more polluting cars that the rest of the country drives...

Here’s a lesson for Democrats on how to have courage—and what happens when you quit cowering and take a stand. A week ago Thurs at the ABC News Democratic presidential debate, candidate Beto O’Rourke made this proclamation, one that no Democratic prez candidate had EVER made: “Hell yes we are going to take away your AR-15, your AK-47s!” The audience in Houston went crazy w/ wild applause, many leaping to their feet to show their approval of what he just said. But the Democratic Party establishment was aghast. They went into immediate damage control...

(1/7) STRIKE! This is the day! When you know it’s too late, what do you do? Nothing? Everything? Something new? Something we haven’t thought of? We, the adults, have led and participated in an environmental movement for 50 years. And where are we after all this? 2/7 The kids know. The high school students know. They know the state of the planet we’ve handed them. They know we have failed. And so now a younger generation has zero desire to wait another damn minute considering we’ve already pushed their future over the friggin’ cliff.

Exactly 59 weeks from TODAY this madness could be over. Or not.

Last night on CNN, a student asked Biden, who had pledged to take NO fossil fuel money, why he was having an NYC fundraiser tonight hosted by Andrew Goldman, the founder of the natural gas co Western LNG. Biden denied it. Then CNN said it was true & that Biden is attending. Wow. We can NOT go through this again, my friends. As with Hillary taking GoldmanSachs $$ & then trying to pretend nothing happened, we can NOT risk this again. Our base will stay home once more if Biden is the candidate. If they see he’s in cahoots w/ fossil fuel, that he has lied...

For decades now the NRA has successfully lobbied Congress to prevent any funding for the CDC to study why gun violence in the US has grown to epidemic proportions.

I don’t have a Ph.D, I’m not a social scientist, but I’d like to offer a few observations & ask a few questions: 1. Nearly all gun murders are committed by one gender. Let’s study why that is.

2. The vast majority of guns are owned by white people. Why is that? Most of these white ppl live in nearly all-white suburban/rural areas which have little or no crime.Why do they need so many guns?

Major props to all citizens who are peacefully confronting Republican Senators anywhere they find them. In the halls of Congress, in their fancy restaurants, in their driveways. Stopping them, blocking them, shouting them down, making their day to day lives miserable... ...because these Senators are planning to vote to make women’s lives more than just miserable — they plan to destroy a women’s right to choose. They plan to place themselves and the Supreme Court IN CHARGE of women’s reproductive organs.

1) You must have my smash hit of a Broadway show confused with your presidency-- which IS a total bomb and WILL indeed close early. NOT SAD 2) Today, 1 U.S. service member was killed & 6 injured in our never-ending war in Afghanistan. You,our President, are not even aware of this
