Trump Removes Sanctions on Russia to Help Oil Flow Amid Iran Conflict

Trump Removes Sanctions on Russia to Help Oil Flow Amid Iran Conflict

Please read and share. The β€œgrassroots” support for the SAVE America Act is a lie. The campaign pushing this bill is being run by Cleta Mitchell and Scott Presler, two of the most notorious election deniers in the country.

This sounds like GOP psyops against a blue state.

Where a stream once flowed
Into the Ohio
Everything was turned to stone
The bible speaks of this
There were giants in our midst
But they slaughtered one another in a meaningless war
Thank your lucky stars that we don't do that anymore πŸ™ƒ

Just in time for spring crop planting across the US. Yet again farmers get f**ked by the people they voted for, and yet another contribution to rising food costs.

"Outrageous" is too out-dated and mild, and words matter, so may I suggest instead: sadistic and unjust fuckery

The opposition must start employing more direct language that fits the crimes and lies.

"We would never do it intentionally"

Sir, they bombed the same school twice, 40 minutes apart. The only reason to do that is to also kill the rescuers.

The SAVE Act is a major attack on voting rights. It is not a genuine voter ID reform, but rather an attempt to suppress turnout in future elections.

Bees are flying, apple trees pruned, pear trees pruned, grapes pruned, and made a huge pot of soup. Tomorrow's task is topping and pruning the cherry trees, clearing out the fall hops vines, and stacking all the pruned branches for the birds to use as nesting material.

Thank you for doing the dirty work for the people who don't have enough spoons (or aren't particularly suited) to deal with the level of grotesqueness in those files. That's a heavy burden to take on. Thank you for bearing that torch.

This is a legit & much needed call to organize or jump into an organized group that you (the royal you) care about.

It feels like a lot right now, & that feeling isn't wrong. It IS a lot, and one person can't do it all. So pick a cause, do what you're good at, and make that your unique torch. πŸ’—

Bill Clinton has a call to action at the memorial service for Rev. Jesse Jackson:

"You have to ask yourself 'what did Jesse Jackson do that I admire most, that moved me most, and what can I do right now that would maybe be as good as what he did then?' That's what we're all facing here."

Russia is aiding Iran and will wait until the US runs low on its missiles stockpiles and then they will enter the arena in ways we are not prepared for.

Putin is licking his chops, and our president is too daft to realize or admit he's being played.

It really goes to show just how desperate they are. It's kind of nice to know their only options are to scrape the bottom of the barrel at this point. I mean, it's a fucking terrible way to run a nation, but small comforts these days.

If you've ever worked in retail, or if you were alive before the days of the internet, I promise you escaping music was and is not always an option.

Surviving years of Christmases when working in retail is its own special hell. There's only like 7 songs in constant rotation. It's a form of torture.

Person 1 in the hall: Kristi Noem was just fired!
