And his murder is terrifying because it says to me that Putin feels so powerful at this point that he could do it. Horrifying.

The murder of Navalny is devastating. I am crying for his family and all of Russia. He was one of the most courageous men to walk this Earth.
Nicole ParsonsTrump is still a candidate for president because he has deep-pocketed billionaires, foreign and domestic, funding the necessary mass malign influence campaigns that incites the GOP base.
These 63 billionaires are prepared to do anything, literally anything, to shield Trump.

Holy shit. Univision, the nation's largest Spanish-language network, has decided to cancel ad-buys by the #Biden campaign in Nevada, Arizona, Pennsylvania, & Florida after #Trump met with their executives last week. Our media continues to fail us. This is how our democracy dies.

Here’s what went down: we just won a clean 45 day gov extension, stripped GOP’s earlier 30% cuts to Social Security admin etc, staved off last minute anti-immigrant hijinks, and averted shutdown (for now).

Ever wonder why Africa is being so favored by Russia?
Yes, it's a rich source of mineral wealth, but the Chinese have also tried to court African nations and failed often.
Africa is potentially a source of solar energy and Russia and OPEC thwarts all efforts at renewable energy.
Keeping captive markets for their planet-frying toxic products is what corrupt petrostate despots do.
Africa is at risk of climate change famines so grain sales thwarts a transition to renewable energy.
