barbtries's Journalit's not just the crimes.
it's not just the murdering of people on manufactured pretexts. It's the delight they take in doing so.
it's not just the random and gratuitous brutality they engage in. it's that they enjoy it.
psychopathy is on full display. they celebrate it.
i just need to bitch for a quick moment.
my sister has Alzheimers and my niece is her caretaker.
she's a magat.
she's taking my sister shopping today. My sister has a cold (test for covid? no fucking way. vaccinate for covid? oh no she's in North Idaho where she even found a PCP to tell her NOT to get the jab). so anyhow, you're sick, so let's go shopping.
I said you're taking her shopping with a cold? she said oh she's on the tail end of it.
I can't go off on her because my sister is all that matters right now. I need to maintain a good relationship with my niece.
So thank you DU for putting up with me. I'm pissed with nowhere to go with it
What Congress's Top Fighter Sees Coming in 2026 Rep. Jasmine Crockett
I probably won't be around to see it happen, but (assuming we get our democracy back) I think Jasmine Crockett could easily be the first woman presidential candidate to win it (not necessarily believing that Hillary and Kamala didn't, really).
She's brilliant.
Trial starts for assault case against D.C. man who tossed sandwich at federal agent in viral video
Source: PBS.org
WASHINGTON (AP) Throwing a sandwich at a federal agent turned Sean Charles Dunn into a symbol of resistance against President Donald Trumps law-enforcement surge in the nations capital. This week, federal prosecutors are trying to persuade a jury of fellow Washington, D.C., residents that Dunn simply broke the law.
That could be a tough sell for the government in a city that has chafed against Trumps federal takeover, which is entering its third month. A grand jury refused to indict Dunn on a felony assault count before U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirros office opted to charge him instead with a misdemeanor.

One way krasnov and company are wasting taxpayer dollars. Even if convicted, I can't imagine him being forced to spend another minute in jail.

Senator Merkley is holding the floor of the Senate.
I thought for sure this would have been posted by now, but searched and did not find it. It's worth your time. He is sounding the alarm about the end of democracy in the USA.

Just finished my signs.
My son and DIL will be here in less than an hour and we'll be protesting in Durham, NC.
Happy No Kings Day! We make history today...
Made my signs. As you can see I'm not a great artist but I have some positive thoughts to share and I'm bringing a couple of my Antifa ancestors along for this big day.

Happy No Kings Day!
I'm feeling so emotional. It's going to be so big and so important a message We the People bring to tptb.
This made me laugh - when i laugh these days it's like a breath of fresh air, especially while i'm doing my "keyboard warrioring" every morning.
Be careful out there. Violence is not sustainable and is not our goal.
