The reason the world is upset with Israel is because of the 700,000+ innocent Palestinians they’ve murdered.

It’s not because they’re Jewish. Hope that helps.

From what I’m hearing Mitch McConnell is allegedly on life support after going into cardiac arrest and becoming unconscious and unresponsive at his home where paramedics did CPR and took him to the hospital.Republicans don’t want the truth to come out before the midterms.

[James Tate @JamesTate121]

Agreed.

It’s really too bad that all the billionaires here in the U.S don’t feel the same way because if they did this Country wouldn’t be struggling right now.

People are traveling, gathering together, barbecuing, celebrating the 250th anniversary of this nation in various ways. And then we have this…

An American service member using his right to free speech, guaranteed in our nation’s constitution. A right given to all of us every day. Regardless of your political affiliation, read or watch Major Jason Watson’s full statement. It’s powerful. He has served and is serving. He is speaking up and out, and for that he was arrested.

Free speech, freedom of religion, a free press, the freedom to vote for who you choose, the freedom to love who you choose. These are all things we celebrate on our nation’s birthday. They are what makes us a democracy, among many other things. So as you gather, as you grill, as you plan your day, think of Major Watson, think of the freedoms you hold dear, and don’t just celebrate them, but make sure generations to come will have these rights as well! 🇺🇸

[Sarrah Bellus @sarrah_bellus]

I don't believe people outside of the military understand how significant this is. He is willing to lose his entire future over this. That's bravery like we haven't seen in a long time.

In an unprecedented act of dissent, active-duty USAF Major Jason Watson was arrested on the Capitol steps after calling for the impeachment & removal of Donald Trump. Risking his career to uphold his constitutional oath, his arrest marks a historic moment. ✊🏻✊🏿✊🏼✊🏾✊🏽

The world is slowly getting it.
This company is not what it claims to be.

Palantir is a surveillance and data collection front-end for Nazi psychopath Peter Thiel. It is Cambridge Analytica for the broligarchy. It needs to die in a fire and its ashes thrown into a volcano.

[Kevin M. Nelson @KevinMNelsonUSA]

We need new House and Senate rules:

If you are MIA for more than 72 hours, without an official, documented communication with the Speaker or Majority Leader- you lose your seat, period!

McConnell is Not the first walking zombie to go missing for days without proof of life.

[Christopher Webb @cwebbonline]

THIS IS WHAT IS CALLED FOR UNDER FASCISM — BRAVERY

Before the attacks and the hot takes start, a few facts:

Major Jason Watson is a graduate of the U.S. Air Force Academy, a career logistics officer, a NATO officer, and a decorated veteran who volunteered for a 365-day tour in Afghanistan and later served in Kuwait and Iraq.

He led personnel across multiple countries, managed billions of dollars in military assets, and served as a Sexual Assault Response Coordinator to support fellow service members.

Defense Meritorious Service Medal. Meritorious Service Medals. Joint Service Commendation Medal. Years of service to this country and to our allies.

You can agree or disagree with his protest. That’s your right.

But rewriting his record, questioning his patriotism, or pretending he hasn’t devoted much of his adult life to serving the United States would be a lie.

His service happened. His sacrifices happened. His character was built long before today’s headlines. We should support his purpose.

[James Tate @JamesTate121]

An active-duty member of the United States military stood on the steps of the Capitol, in uniform, and called for the impeachment, conviction, and removal of Donald Trump. He was arrested.
He didn’t stumble into this. He knew exactly what he was doing.
Under Department of Defense rules and the Uniform Code of Military Justice, active-duty service members are heavily restricted from engaging in partisan political activity, especially in uniform. Depending on how this is charged, he could be facing violations like Article 92 (failure to obey orders or regulations), and for officers, even Article 88 (contempt toward officials). That’s not a slap on the wrist, that’s career-ending territory. Court-martial, loss of rank, forfeited pay, even prison time are all on the table.
He risked everything: his career, his pension, his freedom, and the future he built inside the military.
And he did it anyway.
You don’t have to agree with what he said to recognize what it took to say it. Real courage isn’t reserved for safe opinions or popular moments. It shows up when the cost is clear, and you move forward anyway.
The military demands discipline and neutrality for a reason. But history is full of moments where individuals inside institutions decided that staying silent was the greater violation.
That tension, between duty to the system and duty to conscience, is where this story lives.
Maybe you think he crossed a line. Maybe you think he drew one.
But let’s not pretend this was casual. This was deliberate. This was informed. This was someone fully aware of the consequences choosing to act anyway.
Time will decide how this moment is remembered. It always does.
But one thing is undeniable: he knew the price, and he spoke anyway. VIA!~~~ Melinda Fulton

[MM  @adgirlMM]

Mitch McConnell had a chance these past two years to redeem his long career and legacy of working against the interests of the American people...

and being the singular reason why a stacked conservative Supreme Court now works to undo the Constitution...

and being the decision maker that ultimately allowed a criminal who tried to overthrow the government to run for office again.

But Mitch McConnell chose not to.
That's his legacy.

[Jsafford @Jsafford78]

@NorthMnSouthF Happy Birthday, Lacy!!!

[Reverend Raphael Warnock @ReverendWarnock]

The Supreme Court just opened the floodgates for MORE big money in our elections.

And they overruled Congress to do it.

This court has been captured by partisan actors and extremists.

[Joyce, the Last Raikage 🌩️ @Etrouse]

If Clarence Thomas has a million haters I’m one of them. If he has 1000 haters I’m one of them. If he has 1 hater it’s me. If he has 0 haters it means I have left this world. If the world is against him I am with the world. If the world is for him , I am against the world.

[Hey, Dave! @davegreenidge57]

Mitch McConnell‘s legacy will forever be;, stealing two Supreme Court seats, and protecting a traitor and criminal from prosecution for orchestrating a deadly attack against the Capitol of the United States.
And if not for John McCain he would have killed Obamacare, too. Scum.

[Prez @PrezLives2022]

Clarence Thomas says birthright citizenship dishonors American citizenship. What a crock.

None of Clarence’s ancestors and none of ours were born here. No American earned citizenship. It was provided through the theft of stolen land. Anyone who came after are all illegal immigrants much like the Zionists. We both took land that was not ours and nor was it promised to us. We simply took it through genocide, an illegal war, or we bought some. I mean this is why Israel says the US can’t tell them what they can and can’t take. We are the example far right lunatics follow.

There are procedures in place to make changes to the Constitution, yet right wingers keep trying to find back doors that a corrupt SC is willing to open if it is the right door.

Clarence Thomas as an African American is bought and paid for. His opinions are irrelevant. The man should be in prison along with Alito, Kavanaugh, and most likely Roberts.

No decent American should ever take their decisions seriously because in due time they will all be overturned.

[Morgan J. Freeman @mjfree]

🚨 HOLY HELL: Corrupt Clarence Thomas was just caught sneaking out of speaker Mike Johnson’s office.

A Supreme Court justice should not have a private meeting with the speaker of the house.

What were they talking about?

[middleclassparty @middle_class_us]

Sellers cannot sell because their homes are worth less than they paid.

Buyers cannot buy because prices are still too high.

Landlords cannot find reliable tenants.

Renters cannot meet the credit and income requirements.

People are living in their cars. In hotels. Bunking with family.

Every door in the American housing market is either locked or broken.

And nobody in Washington has a serious answer for any of it.
