(We the) People Over Politics

Trump would be nothing without his sycophants and the US Military, internally and internationally.

Precisely.

Hitler also tried to bomb Britain, from the air, into submission. It didn’t work…

There might be Iranians who want regime change. But there are many, maybe even more, other Iranians who want a spiritual and religious leader, an Ayatollah. That might mean civil war in Iran and no regime change anytime soon.

President Barack Obama’s speech at Jesse Jackson’s memorial service. He’s a breath of fresh air in the stink of Trump trailing behind him, literally and figuratively. And he has things to say, while you are riveted by his every word. Trust me, you will be.

‼️

MASSIE: “Iran is not Venezuela. The Ayatollah was not a president. He was a religious leader… 🇺🇸 & 🇮🇱 turned him into a martyr, expended billions, 6 🇺🇸 families must now lay to rest their sons & daughters. And for what? This administration can't even give us a straight answer.”

Daaaamn. Rev Al Sharpton dropped the proverbial mic at the end of his address at Jesse Jackson’s memorial service and walked away like a boss. Watch his full address, twice. 😳🫡

“They went against the Southern bigots in overalls, we’re dealing with manicured 5th Avenue bigots.”
- Rev Al Sharpton talking at Jesse Jackson’s memorial service.

Rev Al Sharpton talking at Jesse Jackson’s memorial service is on fire 🔥 He’s talking exactly as he sees it, and he’s not holding back. He’s the right fighter at the right time. I dread the day he passes.

I’m watching Barack Obama speaking at Jesse Jackson’s memorial service. And it’s just wonderful listening to him—he’s riveting, so interesting, makes me laugh, has a wide vocabulary range, his “weaves” are short and and when he circles back, it’s a punch. I’m hooked.

The new leader of Iran…we don’t want him. They can have him.

$7 billion spent so far in the Iran War.
$1 billion cut from Medicaid.

“A budget is a reflection of priorities, acting as a financial document that reveals what an individual, organization, or government values most by showing where money is allocated.”

It has just occurred to me that the new sycophantic Pentagon Press Corps has produced nothing since the start of the war, let alone at any time since they replaced the REAL journalists?
Remember their pride and arrogance when they moved in?

Today's abysmal jobs report is a reminder that tax cuts for corporations and the rich don’t create jobs or grow the economy.

What's required is investment in working people — and better wages.

When workers have money to spend, the economy grows and businesses create more jobs.

Remember this.

Since the Dow is under 50,000, can we talk about the Epstein files again?

The reason we have “stupid rules of engagement” is to make sure we don’t bomb elementary schools.

Me or Trump?

This 2020 Trump speech is going viral.

She paid hundreds of thousands for life-saving open-heart surgery and only avoided bankruptcy because she had solid insurance.

For anyone without coverage or savings, the same surgery could ruin them or cost their life. That’s how broken this system is. #TrumpsWarOnOurEconomy

We need to pass a House rule or law that requires them to work a certain number of days to get paid. Since Mike Johnson took over these people hardly ever work. When they finally come back after weeks off they work 2 days and he sends them home for 2 more weeks. It’s ridiculous.

NOEM: I would disagree with the judge

CROCKETT: I'm sure you would, but can you tell me whether or not you have a law degree?

NOEM: A what?

CROCKETT: A law degree

NOEM: No I do no-

CROCKETT: Okay

Jasmine Crockett is a class act. 💙

Video: Ukraine Is A Real Ally. Allies Matter As Americans are struck by shaheed drones, Ukraine is providing help.

@adamkinzinger.substack.com talks about Ukraine helping America and the drone problem in the war against Iran. You can’t use a $1m Patriot missile to shoot down a drone (that killed 6 servicemen in Kuwait) and Ukraine has the technology to solve that expensive problem.
Ukraine still needs help too…
