Resist – The Politicus

Chevron, not the DOJ, prosecutes a human rights activist, successfully sentencing him to prison.

“Today's sentencing of human rights lawyer Steven Donziger should be front-page news ringing alarm bells anywhere people are concerned about democracy, abuses of corporate power, and the rule of law. The real crime here is the death and disease resulting from Chevron's poisoning of the drinking water of thousands of Indigenous...

Desperate measures, manipulating the process, the results, anything that can result in staying in power.

In his latest screed, Trump made the usual nonsense claims, hoping to gain support from independents who might be afraid of PoC and poor people. Because no one’s heard of the FHA, Trump wants people in McMansions to vote for him, even if his claims about higher home prices is more about...

Trump Threatens to Sue His Own Campaign Manager Over Bad Poll Numbers

President Donald Trump held a meeting at the White House with several lawmakers to talk about gun control. At the roundtable, Trump bashed the officers in Florida who apparently failed to stop Nikolas Cruz from killing 17 people at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland. The Republican, who previously stated he would have rushed to the school to save the students, said law enforcers should have taken the “shooter’s guns away whether they had the right or not.”

CNN just posted a story about yet another Trumpertantrum, as the Great Orange Shitgibbet goes increasingly and noisily and totally insane: Trump erupts at campaign manager as reelection stress overflows As he huddled with advisers on Friday evening, President Donald Trump was still fuming over his sliding poll numbers and...

Expanding our voting-by-mail procedures is an absolute imperative and a moral no-brainer in the midst of a national pandemic.
