  • Activists are persecuted, arrested and threatened with arrest after defending the Venezuelan embassy protectors. Washington DC police are a personal goon squad for Guaido supporters. The DC city council must hold hearings. Please sign. Thanks.

    Media all leading with "Conviction of Roger Stone, top Trump aide, for lying to Congress". But not a single mention, anywhere in the MSM, that what he was actually convicted of was lying that he had a link to Wikileaks when he did not.
  • Roger Stone guilty of lying about lying. He never had contact with WikiLeaks or with anyone who actually did.

    Roger Stone was found guilty on charges stemming from his false claim of a Wikileaks backchannel. In reality, he had none. Let that sink in: the top proponents of Trump-Russia-Wikileaks "collusion" are now pretending that this verdict doesn't undermine their conspiracy theory.

  • Right wingers opened a can of whoop ass in Brazil when they tried to attack the Venezuelan embassy there. They caught hands. (Check out the t-shirt. Even better.)

  • You may have read that the Russian government has recognized the self-proclaimed president of Bolivia. Please read what Russia's U.N. representative had to say before you spread misinformation.

    Oh, hell no, man. The grift crapped out on 'em too soon, so they need something else to occupy us with while they avoid addressing real, actual issues which really, actually affect us.

    I watched hours of the impeachment hearing yesterday and it was the dumbest thing I've ever seen. Nothing will come of this. Sorry.

    Trump's con was that he was going to drain the swamp, help workers, & stand up to despised Beltway elites. What did Democrats respond with? Not an agenda that actually challenges elites & exposes Trump's con, but two "scandals" that in fact give the con more fuel.

    And, as usual, everyone's OK with the real scandal, which was the overthrowing of a foreign government and the profiteering by "consultants" that followed.
  • NAACP should wait until they’re finished. Ukrainegate may be like Russiagate. A lot of innuendo and puffery which in the end doesn’t amount to much. This is a Democratic Party get out the vote effort meant to substitute for actually giving the people what they need.
