I couldn’t agree more.

@DiMartinoBooth @profplum99 Unfortunately one party has adopted a nativist great replacement theory position that is so obsessed with skin pigment that rational economic principles don’t matter. I dug deep into this for my MA thesis.

@JackMurphyRGR So—the agents turn on a news source that paints their agency as a leftist globalist deep state tool. The irony! 🫢🙄

@elonmusk @LindseyGrahamSC That was 10 years before Russian fascists pillaged and raped their way through that territory. Now they are being forcibly conscripted by their invaders to fight their own countrymen. Appeasement of genocide is not the answer @elonmusk.

Putin is the greatest threat to international democracy and self government of our generation. The sooner he is six feet under—the better.

[Joel Funk for St. Clair County Board @Funk4Congress]

Remember back when the war in Ukraine started and many Americans regurgitated Russian propaganda pushed out by fascist loving Putin superfans like @TuckerCarlson and @TulsiGabbard that were grasping at every straw of legitimacy for this illegal invasion?

Well—here’s more evidence that this war had nothing to do with denazification or threats to Russia.

The invasion of Ukraine is and always was a land grab perpetrated through genocide.

Many of the migrants are from Venezuela, a South American nation that has been engulfed in a political and economic crisis, with shortages of food, water and electricity.”

I’m glad someone is finally stepping up and doing the right thing. Those in need never forget those that that lifted them up when they were at their lowest.

“Massachusetts authorities announced Friday that they will move approximately 50 migrants from the island of Martha’s Vineyard to a military base in Cape Cod so they can find shelter and chart next steps. The move is voluntary for the migrants, the state said…

@TulsiGabbard @FoxNews Your security clearance should be pulled. Stop advancing FSB talking points and being an apologist for a fascist dictator committing genocide in Ukraine.

“BlackRock manages an estimated $10 trillion in assets, a number larger than many first-world economies. Billions of those dollars come from U.S. pension funds.”

[Joel Funk for St. Clair County Board @Funk4Congress]

I’m no fan of BlackRock and the immense control it has, but I find it laughable that “free market” and “limited government” politicians only take issue and go after a private company and the power it welds—when it doesn’t conform to their tribalism.

No one is holding a gun to the heads of these state pension managers—forcing them to use BlackRock. I’m sure Ken Griffin and Citadel will be perfectly happy to take their money. That’s how fair markets and competition work.

He won the party’s nomination for governor. And in the Illinois Republican gubernatorial primary, Democrats’ spent millions of dollars to successfully promote the Trump-backed election denier.”

[Joel Funk for St. Clair County Board @Funk4Congress]

This is a dangerous strategy for the longterm stability of our democracy. It is one more reason why we must have election reform.
