DeanObeidallahSince we are likely back to GOP supporting Jim Jordan for Speaker wanted to re-share my article: Jim Jordan should not be Speaker, he should be a co-defendant in Trump’s attempted coup case. https://deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/jim-jordan-should-not-be-speaker

Bread and CircusesGreta Thunberg:
"Since the rise of human civilization, we have cut down half of the trees in the world, wiped out more than two thirds of the wildlife, and filled the oceans with plastics, as well as initiating a potential mass extinction and a climate catastrophe. We have begun destabilizing the very life support systems we all depend on. We are, in other words, sawing off the branch we’re living on."
That's from page 18 of “The Climate Book” -- https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/709837/the-climate-book-by-greta-thunberg/

Aral BalkanIsrael-Hamas war: Israeli military orders 1.1 million in Gaza to evacuate south ‘ahead of operation’
https://www.irishtimes.com/world/middle-east/2023/10/13/israel-hamas-war-latest/
This is prelude to genocide. Gaza is an open air prison with 2 million people, nearly half of which are children. The places being told to evacuate include hospitals. There is nowhere to go.
You cannot condemn the barbarism of one group while cheering on that of another.

🏳️🌈🖖🏽I remember the 2000 Election. There were enough votes for Ralph Nader to hand the election to George W. Bush.
I remember the 2016 Election. There were enough votes for Jill Stein to hand the election to Donald Trump.
In 2024 the Green Party is running Cornell West. Let’s not repeat this history, friends
Your vote is not a marriage. You’re not choosing a life partner. It’s a chess move for what’s best for the country and the world.
Sean KleefeldGaiman: " If you really can't figure out which political party or which politician to vote for, just ask if they're on the side of libraries. Are they voting to fund their libraries? Are they voting to keep them free? Then vote for those guys. They're probably the good guys. And by the same token, the book burners, the book banners, they're probably the bad guys."

“I will always be on the side of the libraries”: A Conversation with Neil Gaiman
Neil Gaiman is a fierce supporter of libraries. The author of American Gods, Neverwhere, Good Omens, The Sandman, Coraline, and so many more has had a lifelong love affair with reading. And he credits librarians for fostering his curiosity about books and learning at a young age. Gaiman spoke with I Love Libraries recently about libraries, comic books, book banning in the U.S., movies, and more.
He may have been President but a common thief is who he actually is
Qasim Rashid, Esq.To summarize the last 2.5 years
—Bidenomics
•US GDP growth up to 2.4%
•Inflation down to 2.97%
•Unemployment down to 3.6%
•US Manufacturing now #1 globally
—GOP
•Unanimously voted NO on COVID relief bill, Inflation Reduction Act, & Infrastructure Bill
•Blocked BBB and student loan relief
•Banned abortion access & Affirmative Action
•Legitimized LGBTQ discrimination, drowning migrant kids, & claim slavery helps Black people
GOP fights culture wars because they don't have principles to run on.

BREAKING: Donald Trump is rocked by another massive scandal as the renowned ethics watchdog CREW releases a bombshell analysis that shows he raked in $9.6 million from the Middle East alone while he was in the White House. The shocking report comes as Republicans are in the midst of concocting "bribery" allegations against President Biden out of thin air as a pretext to impeach him. In reality, Trump was the one taking bribes through his so-called "side income" overseas. CREW's analysis rips Trump for the "unprecedented decision not to divest from his business interests" which created an "endless number of conflicts of interest." He ended up "profiteering" off the presidency and "raked in tens of millions from international business interests during his time in office." Trump engaged in shady business dealings with Saudi Arabia, Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Turkey and Kuwait while president — and each of them had an easy way to influence his foreign policy by pumping money into his businesses. This corrupt revelation taken in tandem with the fact that Trump's son-in-law received a whopping $2 billion investment from Saudi Arabia easily explains why the administration did nothing after Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince had journalist Jamal Khashoggi murdered and dismembered. Trump was clearly twisting American foreign policy into dark knots to line his own pockets. His loyalty has always been first and foremost to his wallet. CREW describes the $9.6 million from Middle Eastern countries as "just the tip of the iceberg" and said that numerous conflicts of interests are not present on Trump's tax returns. "As the 2024 election creeps closer, foreign interests including those in the Middle East are already buying access to Trump and pouring money into his pockets," CREW warned. It's time for the Justice Department to open a sweeping investigation into the blatant bribery Trump sucked up during his time as president. There is another indictment just waiting to be discovered.
