They Accuse Us of being Socialists or even Communists?

We can't paint such a broad brush with a label that MAGA uses as a political cudgel. Some aspects of socialism we should rightly reject while others we can embrace. There's a world of difference between democratic socialist societies like Sweden and Denmark versus repressive socialist societies like Cuba or Venezuela. The MAGA-fascists tend to throw them all into the same basket. With the current levels of record and escalating wage-wealth inequality, our nation is nowhere ne

Signed in 2015 under the Obama administration, it represented a significant diplomatic achievement.

It's Sunday & I Missed Church Again

Genuine Christianity & MAGA Christianity are polar opposites. It's become evident those naive folks who have been entrapped by MAGA media's distorted worldview that capitulates to their orange dictator, they've sacrificed their moral bearings to the god of earthly power that trumps heavenly power. Those corrupted church congregations have unwittingly fallen into the Devil's trap of disinformation & lies, while MAGA pastors have been duped into becoming like the scribes & Ph

Congress can still take action to rein in ICE

At the very least, it must disarm ICE. Call your members of Congress and tell them that any DHS spending bill must - prohibit ICE and Border Patrol agents from carrying guns - unambiguously declare that agents do not have absolute immunity under the law if they harm civilians. ICE funding must pass by January 30 with 60 votes in the Senate. Republicans do not have 60 votes. They cannot do anything without collaborators. https://5calls.org/issue/dhs-budget-ice-defund Senate
