Apropos of SecDef's remarks this morning:
Denial of quarter—even the declaration of no quarter—is a war crime.
And recognized as such by the US Government.

Check your Voter Registration (VR), Arizona! Some people have had their VR changed without their knowledge. Let’s not get surprised when it’s ballot/election time!

The White House turning war and death into content mimicking video games is a moral collapse, not a messaging strategy. War is not a game!
EPIC FAIL

Please read and share. The “grassroots” 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.

Six years ago, police burst into Breonna Taylor’s home in the middle of the night and took a life that should still be here today.
Justice delayed, accountability denied, and her name still carries the weight of a system that failed her.
We remember Breonna Taylor. #SayHerName

Dow Jones, in its 130 year history has dropped a 1000 points or more 14 times.
12 out of those 14 times were under Donald Trump Presidency.

March 23 is coming up fast. Let’s each do our part to get strong Dem candidates in the ballot. If we don’t, we won’t be able to vote for the candidates who share our values.

Consider 27 Park Place in Bloomfield to be our wake-up call. We must vote in a local & county government that will work to preserve and keep safe affordable housing.
What is currently going badly is by design.

📣 Arizona lawmakers are taking public comment right now. Request to Speak — it's free, it's fast, and it works.
First get an RTS account - the easiest way is to ask CEBV to register one for you. Once youre set up, log in and record your vote on bills thats in hearings that week. 🌵#SheShed

It’s likely a much larger number of casualties because this regime always lies. This is a rogue group that needs to be immediately stopped. Impeach, arrest and convict now. Anything short of this is immoral
