Retired union rep, at home in Oregon, which I love. I travel when I can afford it, interests in human origins, photography, fly fishing and restoring our US public lands. Blazer fan, because it's still ok to have fun.
The bottom line is Trump sacrificed 8 American lives (& counting) and more than 1,000 Iranian lives (& counting) for nothing. He hurt the US & global economies, destabilized the Middle East, & will pull out with the same Iranian regime in power. There's no silver lining.
A senseless, criminal waste
I still give to charity, but virtually 100% of it is to my local community food bank. They just say thanks. That's it. And I know what the money is being used for.
They spent your tax money on killing children. I think it's worth us spending our tax money prosecuting and punishing them all. No one will argue against it. It is a popular stance. Don't be a pussy. Stand up for those girls who were killed in our name.
Run on prosecuting war criminals and show ads with the missile hitting the school and show photos of the girls when they were alive. Make it a point to arrest and prosecute Hegseth and go from there. Trump won't protect him. He'll either be dead by then or cashed out.
It's my one demand of all Dems everywhere. I don't demand Ideological uniformity from every Dem no matter where they are running, but I expect this. Accountability under the law.
This is more than enough information and evidence to get this complete administration impeached.👇🏼

Some professors at the University of St. Thomas are doing a research project on the effects of the ICE occupation on Twin Cities parents. They're looking for parents who are US citizens, who live in the Twin Cities metro area, and who have kids ages 5-10.

You average normie Democrat in 2026 loves AOC, wants to abolish ICE, and thinks Israel shouldn’t get another penny from us.
It’s laughable how out of touch centrist consultants and politicians are.
Exactly
Exactly, that's like warning me that my favorite swamp might have fewer leeches in the future.
I have no idea what this is.
What I found, it's that it's really pretty easy to cut my beef consumption to about 10% of what it used to be and I probably wouldn't have done it without the price motivation.
Every single Republican dude who switches their party affiliation to Independent will still vote with the GOP. This only matters on abstract maps counting heads in Congress and is fucking worthless.
Threatened to make rich people pay the taxes they already owe. Everything else flowed from that. The oligarchs hate taxes.

I am not going to waste my time doing work that FB should pay actual editors to do...that is, doing quality control on the ocean of inaccurate & intentionally deceptive drek they algorithmically amplify on their platform. But it's worth remembering that FB is a right wing propaganda site by design.
For some reason unknown to me, Meta just authorized me to participate in their "community notes" program. I just gave it a test run and the first 10 stories it flagged as needing "community note" fact checking were stories that coded as leftist or anti-Trump. Very fair and balanced Zuck!
He's destroying America and Congress and supreme court judges are corrupt
He thinks he gonna be the next Sec Def after Hegseth collapses in an alcoholic stupor and the weird thing is that it could happen.
Israel is dropping white phosphorous. We bombed an elementary school. Oil plants are burning, acid rain is falling, desalinization plants are taking fire. We are fucking around and should not be surprised to find out
We live in a world where a good used 9mm semi auto pistol is worth less than three tanks of gas, two if you drive a pickup.
Yeah it doesn't matter much if they are real. If they are believing that stuff no one is changing their minds so the best course is block and marginalize.
The only thing I want to hear from Dem candidates for the next three years is the promise to criminally prosecute every one of these miserable fucks from the president on down, in every department, in every jurisdiction, at every level, to the fullest extent of the law. No amnesty. No moving on.
This. The US military has covered itself with shame over the last 15 months.
Not as demoralizing as their war crimes trials, one day, God willing.
