Hasan Piker: “Donald Trump literally made it illegal to be trans and an athlete in the NCAA. Did you experience any fucking material improvements in your life? No, of course you didn’t. Is that fixing the fucking gas prices? Giving Israel more money, is that going to fix your gas prices? We’ve been giving Israel $10B a fucking year. Have things gotten better in that process? Has ICE improved your lives? Elon Musk is a fucking trillionaire. Did it do anything for you that’s positive? No, of course not”

Hasan Piker calls out President Barack Obama for saying he wants a strong Republican Party
"I want no Republican Party. I want an ineffective, feckless, weak Republican Party, like the Democratic Party is today.
I want a Republican Party that is so utterly dominated and humiliated in broad daylight that people are embarrassed to say they're voting for a Republican."
Abdul El-Sayed: “AIPAC and Israel are not the same as Judaism and the Jewish people. I love Judaism and I love the Jewish people. The single most dangerous thing they’ve tried to tell us is somehow they can extend the definition of antisemitism to include a foreign government and its leaders. I call bullshit”
The collapse of the Soviet Union saw the greatest peace time reduction in life expectancy and standard of living of any major human population ever. Just an fyi.

An unarmed Iranian ship was invited, along with the U.S., to be part of an Indian Naval exercise, and its sailors paraded on land before the president.
The U.S. at the last minute pulled out of the exercise and instead attacked the Iranian ship with a torpedo.
Breaking with all norms of civilization and warfare, we then refused to rescue the drowning survivors. The Sri Lanka Navy was left to pull the dead bodies from the water.
I am hard pressed to think of any other nation throughout history that would do something so cowardly and despicable. We are genuinely in a league of our own, and American media — mostly shrugging off the bombing of a girls school and acting as if carpet bombing Tehran is a normal military tactic — is deeply complicit.

Michael Parenti, the path-breaking Marxist scholar, historian and political scientist, passed today at age 92
He went peacefully this morning, surrounded by his family
“Now he is in what he used to refer to as ‘the great lecture hall in the sky,’” his son, Christian, reflected
