The American people have already seen enough

Half of the AI data centers have been cancelled. A quarter are under review. And just 24% are being built as planned. The AI scam is dying.

Now is a time for courage

If you claim to be a leader but are too scared to lead, fine -- sit down and let someone else take your place. It is easy to be bold when there is no threat. Now is a time for courage. www.cnn.com/2025/02/16/p...

All politics is local...

This is the way… “The elected officials in Washington have to stop protesting in Washington. They have to go back to their districts…show the consequences…show the school that isn’t operating…they have to make it real.” With social media, word will spread to neighboring districts—even red ones.

It's always a two way street

Two can play that game...

 

It never ceases to amaze me how often those on the right fail to perceive that what's good for the goose is good for the gander as well.  Case in point:  the glee being shown by G.I. Joe wannabes everywhere, in light of the Kyle Rittenhouse being found not guilty of murdering two protesters and wounding one, who believe it is now open season on protesting black folks and libtards everywhere.

They do not seem to realize that this also means that any well-meaning left winger who in a fit of panic decides that citizens storming the Capitol building or any group of people protesting mask mandates at their state capitol by carrying guns the size of sycamore trees (which still won't make up for their small penises) are a threat to their well-being can open fire on any such threatening characters, too.

The looks on their faces when the first liberal uses the "Rittenhouse Defense" will be priceless.

Republican = Racist

Fuck the rich

Take your country back...from the rich

I had two takeaways from this video of Harvard students silently protesting a speech by Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos:

First, it's how strong the resistance remains--from the marches on Trump's inauguration day to the travel ban protests to NFL players taking a knee to these students silently protesting a woman who got her job the rich people's way (she bought it) and the administration she represents, you have to feel that our hopes for taking back what will remain of America are strong.

The second one occurs at the end, when a student asks a perfectly reasonable question in a polite manner:  exactly how much money does billionaire DeVos, Wall Street, and other rich folks like the Koch Brothers stand to gain from turning our public education over to for profit organizations?  And at that point someone (presumably a member of Harvard faculty or one of its administrators) tells DeVos that she doesn't have to answer that question.  Why the fuck not?  It's a legitimate question and she's a public official getting paid by our tax dollars and answerable to we, the American people.

She most certainly has to fucking answer it and the fact that she didn't is entirely telling that her agenda isn't about helping America's children but is instead about making her greedy family even richer.

Tin soldiers and Nixon's not coming

This is a photo from protests in Ferguson, Missouri, where Michael Brown, an unarmed black man, was shot to death by a police officer last week.  Yesterday the police in Ferguson announced they wouldn't be releasing the name of the officer who killed Michael Brown.  Today, the police in Ferguson asked/told/announced to their citizens that there would be a curfew tonight after dark.  As I type this, tear gas is flooding the streets of Ferguson, despite the peaceful nature of the protests.

Every now and again I come across a piece where the writer proclaims we are becoming more and more of a police state every day.  I usually scoff.

After the actions of the police department in Ferguson (and the lack of action by Missouri elected officials from the town itself on up to Missouri Governor Jay Nixon), those proclamations are having a little more credence.  How can anyone look at that picture and trust their local police would behave any differently?  What if it was your unarmed child shot to death?  Wouldn't you want answers and not an army trying to prevent your right to them?

Maybe we finally are on our own.
