After WWII we could have gone home and left the world to burn.
Instead America rebuilt Europe, defended trade routes, and helped inspire the fall of the Iron Curtain.
Because America has always had a mission.
One we're dangerously close to forgetting.

Black History Month is a time to recognize the lived, shared experience of all Black folks who have fundamentally shaped, challenged, and ultimately strengthened America. It’s about taking an unvarnished look at the past so that we can create a better future.

The arrest of Don Lemon is textbook fascism—a brazen attempt to silence reporting on a criminal regime. Stand up for Don, because our rights stand and fall with those of courageous journalists throughout this country.

And let this be one of many headlines be included in the history books as one of many reasons our democracy fell.
The Gestapo leader who oversees kidnappings promises consequences for exercising your First Amendment rights.
How long before the 2nd Amendment is gone?
Donald Trump is telling us exactly what he plans to do in the 2026 midterms — and almost no one is paying attention.
Watch, learn and share. youtu.be/DK8A8gTmD1I?...
"The right to 'bear arms' refers to the right to wear, bear, or carry . . . upon the person or in the clothing or in a pocket, for the purpose . . . of being armed and ready for offensive or defensive action in a case of conflict with another person." --Justice Thomas
Since July, I've tracked at least 2,300 cases in which federal judges have ruled ICE has illegally detained people without bond or due process.

She is an evil monster. I hope she goes to prison when this regime ends.
“Heartbroken but also very angry… sickening lies by the administration… reprehensible and disgusting… Alex is clearly not holding a gun… please get the truth out about our son, he was a good man…”
Certainly the armed lawless goons who got out of their car, assaulted him with pepper spray, tackled him to the ground and then drew their weapons to fire several bullets in his back had no intention of committing murder, no, not after committing murder in the same way a couple weeks ago, no ma'am
They shot Renee Good in the face.
They kidnapped Liam Ramos.
They just executed a man on the street.
Unmask them. Prosecute them. No more secret police.
The official lie is that he came over to interfere with their operations, when you can plainly see several of them get out of their cars, cross the street and confront him there.
They should all be en route to Minneapolis. It is ridiculous for them to act like they can’t do anything.
Suddenly, the Second Amendment is an optional thing for the Republican Party.
The federal government is executing American citizens in the middle of the street for exercising their constitutional right to freedom of speech.
This is tyranny. No free people can accept this kind of government. We need to bring an end to the Trump regime.
NEW VIDEO: Donald Trump is telling us he is going to try to steal the 2026 midterm elections — and too few people are paying attention.

Quick idea. For the righties defending the shooting, go into their profile, hit the search button, type in “second amendment” and then post some screenshots
Tim walz needs to active the guard under state orders to protect citizens from ICE.
If Trump federalizes them from under the Governor, this needs to go to court immediately as proof that the militia clause of the second amendment is violated

Uhh... not to be that guy but... I'm pretty sure the Titantic didn't, you know, "turn around."
We don’t want robots, we want affordable healthcare and groceries. Not everyone is a soulless ghoul that can only relate to machines and money.
Hmm, but the promised they could.
