What if it wasn't Trump himself who made that Deal with the Devil...what it was his dad or his mom... think back to Achilles' mom Thetis, who made him invulnerable by dipping him into the Styx but she held him up by his heel & that turned out to be his one vulnerable spot

Here we go
Now that we have you here... 11 years after Occupy, we're calling for a new global uprising.
Across the planet, we're posting this ultimatum to world leaders wherever it can be seen. If leaders refuse to act, then we #occupy.

A Texas jail warden & his twin brother were arrested for MANSLAUGHTER. Michael & Mark Sheppard "pulled over & shot at" a group of immigrants, like he was in The Purge, who were "standing alongside the road getting water," killing one man & injuring a woman. ๐งต/1

The problem with crushing the Republicans into the ground as they deserve is that the Democrats don't handle hegemony well either. Back in the days of Rostenkowski, as some of you may recall, their arrogance and heavy-handedness laid the groundwork for the Gingrich Revolution.

There is still a path forward in the USA. HJR48, the We the People Amendment is gaining traction in the House. It will overturn Citizens United, end corporate personhood and money as speech! It will end corporate rule, and it will legalize democracy. Look: movetoamend.org
