This DeAnna Lorraine is a real piece of work, check her background, failed in GOP primary and covid Hoaxer.  A real Facebook politician.

Fitting thread title..

Tom Morello is a great person to listen to, I listen to his show on Sirius Lithium all the time.

Harvard educated, guitarist for Rage Against the Machine and a ton of other bands.  He has mom Mary on the show a lot, retired schoolteacher in her 80s or 90s.


But yes, the right has been overrun with wackjobs even further right than the tea party.  Praise for white supremacy posts, blast equal rights movements and declare war on the environment and protesters who stand against police brutality.  Fringe elements that have been quietly kept under a rock for decades are now out in plain view.  


SS America is sinking faster than the Titanic and our POTUS insists on tearing open new holes rather than trying to patch existing ones.

Racism has always been there, we just have a POTUS now that has emboldened them to come out to the light of day. And so many dim-witted sheep that can't get past their own gullibility and narrow-minded fear to see clearly.

Gotta believe it's of a mutual benefit, he's found an audience that responds to his shtick, feeding his needs.  Racism is part of one's values and this president has none, other than selling his brand, pure and profound narcissistic personality.

Almost as alarming as the right's stupefying embrace of a teenage murderer is their seething hatred of a teenage climate activist.

At a time when most 16-year-old Americans girls are obsessed with their "likes" on Tik Tok, their hydro flasks, their phones and credit cards, we have a young woman who is fighting for something she believes in. A cause she believes in so deeply she donated all of her humanitarian award prize money (over $1 million) to various climate projects. 

What a bitch.

Agree with me or not, I have a strong opinion on this.

It's all subterfuge with the exception of this, the biggest head-wind for Biden/Harris is the violence. Trump is deftly claiming that the end to violence goes through his re-election. 

Team blue has to even more loudly/strongly speak to it and their plan to end it. Beyond just condemnation. 

It is the topic du jour, maybe even more than Covid
