The Reverend John Hagee. I called these freaks and spoke with a "prayer partner" a cowardly yet macho, human being hiding behind the idea that hamas uses human sheilds. These horrible people in san antonio texas need to be stopped. At least protested. The reverend john hagee, a famous evangelical with more than 20 thousand followers who believe genocide is good. And they lobby congress. (210) 490-1600 18755 Stone Oak Pkwy, San Antonio, TX 78258

IF you look on Google or any other website you will find that US Prisons are the WORST in the world which is why so many people are fighting extradition of Julian Assange.

But the jails I was in were beautiful, and I was able to spend most of the days in isolation, a wonderful form of terror and torture, uniquely American, like jazz. Solitary is admired the world over as an effective and cruel yet safe form of humiliation

Um, Denny. My boi, the fourth amendment cease to exist a minute the Patriot Act came into being.

At least you had the correct vote on that in the Iraq war.

So long as their permanent excuse remains the day the laws of physics were suspended, that day will forever be used to suspend all other laws.

You are right. The vile, morally bankrupt, fascist common ground all these bought an paid for DUOPOLY SCUM share is THE LOVE OF MONEY.

“The further a society drifts from the truth, the more it will hate those who speak it” -- George Orwell

"But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?" -- I John 3:17

While we are on this subject, this quote from an excellent book by Tim Alberta titled, "The Kingdon, the Power, And the Glory" explains why "Christian" Nationalists are either die hard Capitalists or in-our-faces Fascists.

Eighteen months after the funeral of Tim Alberta's father, former Pastor of Cornerstone Church, Tim Alberta is speaking to then present Cornerstone Church Pastor Winians, who was being harassed by a cabal of christo-fascist Trumpers within said church:

QUOTE:

I had never told Winians about the confrontations at my dad's viewing, or the letter I received after taking Rush Limbaugh's name in vain at the funeral. Now I was leaning across the table, unloading every detail. He narrowed his eyes and folded his hands and gave a a pained exhale, mouthing that he was sorry. He could not manage the words.

We both kept quiet for a little while, And then I asked him something I'd thought every day for the previous eighteen months-a sanitized version of my wife's outburst in the family room.

"What's wrong with American Evangelicals?"

Winians thought a moment.

"America," he replied. "Too many of them worship America."

N Walker. There is the outer political oath and there is the inner authentic oath - the one you actually plant your feet for - in our current Congress given its 50 plus percent of millionaires, the real secret oath is to fealty to the Super and Super-lite Rich Man’s Preservation (Reservation) of the Status Quo Only Money Matters and Power Fraternity.

AIPAC.. The US is ruled by Israel.

Expand full comment

True.

The U.S. Congress is, with a few exceptions, a stinking cesspool of special interest, the chief one now being the support of Israel in a project that bears an amazing resemblance to the pogroms, ethnic cleansing and genocide that the Jewish people endured throughout history.

It's the Social Darwinism.

They've done it all along. I knew this back in 2006, but it takes a full generation for these things to get to this point. That's what your loss of freedom does to you, Mr. & Mrs. America.

Many concessions to this bill caused Republicans to change their previous approval votes.

Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee for president, publicly opposed the bill Wednesday, pointing to its illegal use against him and others during his campaign.

After Trump’s public disapproval, Republicans in the House voted down a procedural vote to advance the legislation for a final passage. However, after winning many concessions from leadership during Thursday’s negotiations, Republicans agreed to advance the bill. The revised bill now includes a two-year extension of Section 702 of FISA, a change from the original five-year plan.

The US government has brainchipped hundreds of thousands of citizens covertly for corporate ai. These people are being tortured with drones and 5g and aerosolized ‘nanoswarms’ in the US. They are being labeled terrorists and crazy while the real crazies torment them and steal and vandalize their property. I spoke to you directly about this in Medina, Ohio. These abuses are being perpetrated and hidden under falsified FISAS. The victims are also being fed out via cctv. Republican leaders KNOW THIS IS OCCURRING. Jim Jordan Thomas Massie Dan Bishop Mike Johnson KNOW THIS IS OCCURRING. The stolen cognition is for the profits of elites and corporations. Our country is a complete totalitarian hellhole because Congressional members are 100% CORRUPT. ALL of them. Unless you are willing to confront this openly stay home. https://x.com/ed_rugebregt/status/1755703536195616849?s=46

Preach, Dennis, preach. You just may make it back into Congress yet.

This is a pattern in some form of repetition, though more convoluted in iterations. The novelty or realization is the current intensity of repression as justifiable. Or not.

They want to shut down TikTok; they ban you on X, ban you on Facebook... What's a little more spying on US citizens, right?

Best of luck, Dennis, taking on our fascist overlords in DC.

The duopoly is out of control. It is no longer disguising its contempt for American citizens. It takes bribes from AIPAC and the WEF globalists whose express plan is to kills up and replace us with AI robots. This is not a conspiracy theory.

I cannot muster your optimism congressman Kucinich. I think the pre-total fascism is all but fait accompli. Unless there is a socialist revolution a la Bob Avakian, we're on the way to a bad end.
