@WorldHallOfFun@elonmusk And by 'everyone who didn't earn it' you mean the billionaires and corporations whose 2017 tax cuts blew up our deficit up by $1.7 trillion.
“JVP is, in essence, the “Jewish”-branch of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement, backed by the usual big-money progressive donors—including some, like the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, that were instrumental in selling Obama’s Iran Deal to the public. JVP and its affiliated political action arm, JVP Action, have received at least $650,000 from various branches of George Soros’ philanthropic empire since 2017, $441,510 from the Kaphan Foundation (founded by early Amazon employee Sheldon Kaphan), $340,000 from the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, and smaller amounts from progressive donors such as the Quitiplas Foundation, according to reporting from theNew York Post and NGO Monitor, a pro-Israel research institute. JVP has also received nearly $1.5 million from various donor-advised funds—which allow wealthy clients to give anonymously through their financial institutions—run through the charitable giving arms of Fidelity Investments, Charles Schwab, Morgan Stanley, Vanguard, and TIAA, according to NGO Monitor’s review of those institutions’ tax documents.”

His war IS our war.
If Ukraine falls, Putin WILL NOT stop there, and American troops will get dragged into combat.
Zelenskyy is fighting so we don’t have to.

The U.S. doesn't suffer from a higher incidence of mental illness than other countries.
What we do have is nearly half the privately-owned guns in the world, despite having just 4 percent of the world's population.
You have to be willfully ignorant to deny this as a big part of the explanation for why America has a dramatically higher number of gun deaths and incidents.
A bullet from an assault weapon can travel nearly triple the speed of sound. It liquefies tissue and vaporizes bone. It destroys children’s faces. Last year 99% of House republicans voted no to banning war weapons like the one used at a Texas mall yesterday.
In light of learning that the Texas mall mass murderer was a rightwing domestic terrorist I want to remind everyone that when we voted last year to crack down on domestic extremists 99.5% of republicans voted no.
