8·16 days agoThere were never any ‘talks with Iran’. That was Trump peddling fake news. It’s a sad day when Iran has way more credibility than the US president. Now we know why – to enrich himself, his family, and his friends.
I remember a time when Americans were furious when they found out the president told them even a small lie. Now pathological liar Trump lies practically every word that comes out of his mouth, and someone makes huge sums of money directly off the lie.

4·18 days agoPlan to fix this step #1:
Repeal ALL the GOP tax cuts on billionaires made since 1980.
Wouldn’t that be awesome? ALL the GOP tax cuts for billionaires in the previous 46 years GONE in an instant. We could win an outright victory in the class war. And our economy would be fine because we were doing great in 1980.

Since the DOGE “savings” was far less than $1 billion we could hire back everybody. Reversing all that damage Kremlin stooge Trump did would help to make America great again like before Trump fucked our country.

17·2 months agoI know lots of people who refuse to get a flu shot because they say it gives them the flu. We were finally going to get a flu vaccine that did not have any risk of making you get the flu. But Trump who got thru college by having his sister do all his homework and drug addict RFK have overruled our entire science community and decided Americans can’t have this. The rest of the world will be getting this for sure.

11·3 months ago[behind right-wing opposition leader María Corina Machado]
She is not “right wing”. She is pro-democracy. She was the real winner of the 2024 election is a landslide but Maduro wouldn’t leave office. Which is what people worry about Treason Trump doing. CNN has shit journalists.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/María_Corina_Machado
[In 2023, Machado won the opposition primary to become the unity candidate for the 2024 presidential election. The Venezuelan government subsequently barred her from running in the election.[1] She named Corina Yoris as a replacement candidate, who was later replaced by Edmundo González. The opposition presented vote tallies that showed González winning the July 2024 election in a landslide, while the government-run National Electoral Council declared victory for Maduro without presenting evidence.[2] Shortly after the presidential election, Machado announced that she had gone into hiding, citing fears for her life and freedom under the Maduro government.[3]
In 2025, Machado was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. She was named one of BBC’s 100 Women in 2018, and listed among Time magazine’s 100 most influential people in 2025. In 2024, Machado received the Václav Havel Human Rights Prize and the Sakharov Prize (shared with González) for representing Venezuelans fighting for democracy]

2·5 months agoAnti-Christianity and anti-capitalism have nothing at all to do with “terrorism”. There are plenty of Christian and capitalist and neofascist terrorists as we all saw on 1-6-2001. The founding fathers said in the Tripoli treaty that the USA is not a Christian country, it is a country with freedom of religion. Even “anti-American” does not necessarily mean anyone is engaged in terrorism. Probably only a small fraction of such people are. Ironically Traitorapist Trump and GOP neofascist’s War On Democracy are the chief anti-American threat in the country today.
