X has really turned into a right-wing propaganda site. Everything I see on my timeline has been right-wing leaning accounts and their comments emphasized at the top of any “political” posts. Que sad.
Filipinos and Filipino Americans have enriched the very essence of America.
This Filipino American History Month and always, I hope each one of you feels pride – not only in your achievements and aspirations, but also in the dreamers and doers around you.
Taylor Swift has donated $5 million to ‘Feeding America’ for Hurricane Helene and Milton relief efforts.
Her donation will help communities rebuild, provide food, clean water and supplies to those affected.
I can’t think about Joe Biden without tearing up a little.
This man ran for president 5 times and lost then enthusiastically backed Obama and played the establishment number two to the greatest leader of his generation.
He wanted to run for president in 2016 but couldn’t because his son Beau died and he was too wracked with grief.
So he comes back in 2020, saves the country from Donald Trump and despite being a career centrist, proceeds to have the most pro-union, pro-working class administration in 80 years, pulls the country out of Covid, pulls us from the economic disaster of Trump into the best economy in the world.
He’s then betrayed by the media class and has to drop out because he’s too old for them. He steps down, for the good of the country, and immediately turns around and full-throatedly endorses the the first Black woman Presidential candidate finalist in U.S. history.
This man.
If you’re thinking of throwing your vote away this year to “punish the Dems”, you already tried that in 2016 and this is where we are
There are two people who have a chance to be the next president
If Biden loses he will go to his beach house in Delaware with his wife and grandkids and live out his golden years.
You’re not punishing him; you’re punishing yourself. Biden will have passed away while you’re still having your rights stripped away one by one by extreme right christofascist loons
Gaza will be leveled. Trump is on tv THIS WEEK saying he supports Israel “finishing the job”
Taiwan will be taken by China
Ukraine taken by Russia
NATO weakened considerably
Muslim Americans rounded up and deported
Hispanic Americans rounded up and deported
Zero chance at universal healthcare
But please carry on with your “protest” as you shoot yourself in the foot to “punish” an 81 year old man who doesn’t need this shit, but is doing it to protect you from Trump, and apparently yourselves
Where were you when Roe v Wade was overturned? I was in a voting
Booth in November of 2016 voting for
Hillary. Where were you?
The Embassy of Japan in the USA releases a statement on Taylor Swift’s travel from Tokyo to the US:
“Despite the 12-hour flight and 17-hour time difference, the Embassy can confidently Speak Now to say that if she departs Tokyo in the evening after her concert, she should comfortably arrive in Las Vegas before the Super Bowl begins.”
COPIED FROM JOE BECIGNEUL: THIS IS PROBABLY GOING TO TICK SOME PEOPLE OFF, AND I HOPE IT DOES. BUT I’M GOING TO KEEP ON SHARING IT AND SAYING IT. AND ONCE AGAIN, I AM NOT A SWIFTIE, BUT I AM A HUMAN BEING, A DAD AND, A MONSTROUS FOOTBALL FAN.
I am extremely disappointed in so many of you who think that "not being a fan" of someone means you're entitled to shit all over them.
I want to remind you of something.
Your children are watching you complain about Taylor Swift sitting at a football game, being happy, and cheering for a man she loves in what appears to be a very loving, respectful relationship.
Your Children are watching you judge a woman for literally just EXISTING and taking up space happily.
And you know what? Ms. Swift has won 324 awards? How many do you have?
She brought $5 BILLION dollars in consumer spending and boosted the U. S. economy so significantly, that leaders from other countries actually beg for her to play there?
Did you know that there are over 20 college courses about her skills as an artist, lyricist, and musician - including at places like Harvard, Stanford & UC Berkeley?
Did you know that Taylor Swift quietly donates mass amounts of money to local food banks in every city she performs in?
AND DID YOU KNOW …
That Taylor Swift was sexually assaulted by a radio DJ, and she got him fired? When he sued HER for over $3 million for defamation, she counter sued for a symbolic $1 in a court case that took 2 YEARS for her to win. And, she did that just to show women that fighting for what's right has no price tag & to never be silent in the face of oppression.
WELL IF YOU DON’T CARE BY NOW, YOU SHOULD.
Because your daughters, nieces, and your nephews are watching you run your mouth. And they are seeing the world hate a woman who does so much good, simply because she exists in their line of sight.
DO BETTER PEOPLE.
Teach your boys to respect women. Teach your girls that as women - they are ALLOWED to take up space.
Fix it. Become aware of your words. Because we all have the ability and the obligation to fight for the future of our children with simple moments. And we need to consciously choose to be better for them.
Remember those Trump tax cuts where some people benefitted early, but the rest of us were going to suffer in 24 and 25 to pay for it. Well payment is due for many of us. I have never owed the government in my life and this year I owe 1100.00
I can pay it but WTF… I claim zero plus 50.00 per pay day extra and I owe 1100 bucks. That’s Republicans. Elect Trump again and see what happens to your taxes. It will be worse.
