Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"
An excerpt from Jesse Jacksonβs powerful speech to the Democratic National Convention on July 19, 1988.
May he rest in peace.
Imagine being a soldier dying to amuse the whims of the pedophile king and all your family gets out of it is a semiliterate "an army believed to be dead?" headline and the pedophile spending exactly 2 seconds pretending to give a fuck before changing subjects to his magnificent Epstein ballroom
Trumpβs tariffs increase prices.
MAGA: What about Biden.
Trump is forced to release the Epstein files. Hides the ones about him.
MAGA: What about Clinton
Trump starts an illegal war with Iran.
MAGA: What about Obama.
They canβt defend him.
So they deflect.
Every damn time.

RIP to Jesse Jackson. His funeral is today. I wanted to share this clip from his appearance on Sesame Street in 1971. His important words ring just as true today as they did back then.
The Apology That Arrived Too Late
By Tony Pentimalli
Democracy rarely collapses because of one leader. It collapses when enough ordinary people decide the warnings aren't someone elseβs problem.
No wonder weβre in the shit.
Democracy doesn't defend itself β people do. Six years ago I built Democracy Docket to be that force. Now 400,000+ free subscribers and 60,000 paying members are part of a vibrant pro-democracy community. But we need you in this fight. Subscribe today. bit.ly/4qmEiFz

Anthropic vows to sue Pentagon over supply chain risk label
www.bbc.com/news/article...
Pretty difficult to refute a single thing in this perfect assessment of where the f**k we are, from @iandunt.bsky.social:
Theyβre raping people on your dime.
Poetry is a bird
perched lightly on the back
of all that is fickle
and dangerous in this world...
The man is incapable of speaking without revealing his true nature. Under the smugness and the swagger, he knows it's he and his comrades who are the "savages that torture and rape and murder." That he doesn't realize he's confessing is a sure sign of psychopathology.
The human rights you are protecting are those of alleged paedophile-conspirators. These include people who are documented as having repeatedly raped, assaulted, drugged and potentially killed CHILDREN. These peoplesβ hypocrisy is sickening my soul.
This war isnβt an emergency that requires us to give the president more latitude. Itβs a monstrosity that requires that judges, lawmakers and above all citizens work to preserve the integrity of elections and the republic.
Dangerous, deluded psychopaths.
Well deserved ππ
A budget is a moral document.
Anthropic pushed back against the Department of Defense over concerns about mass public surveillance and the use of AI in weapons systems without meaningful human oversight. Now, the DoD has labeled the company a potential national security threat.
What could possibly go wrong? #robowar #auspol
Trump fired Kristi Noem.
It wasn't because her immigration agents murdered American citizens. Or the repeated violations of due process. Or even her mismanagement of FEMA.
No, Noem was fired because she upstaged Trump. He wants to be on Mt. Rushmore, after all.
This is the mind of our president.
The United States has just launched military strikes on Iran, and every screen in the country was pointed at the Middle East. In that environment, a major accountability story about DOJ and 47,635 missing Epstein files didnβt stand much of a chance of breaking through the noise. It deserves one. 1/2
Her story has never wavered
