Trump asked Big Oil execs to give him $1 billion for his campaign.

He promised lower taxes and a rollback of Biden's climate regulations and clean energy programs in return.

Trump is literally willing to take bribes in exchange for the destruction of the planet.

Be warned.

Republicans’ declarations of support for Israel are simple to see through, but this is a good run down on most of the antisemitic tropes I’ve been seeing all my life.

So, don’t believe anything Republicans are saying about it. However, if you read it, you’ll see some portion of the left is using antisemitic tropes, also, over and over. Antisemitism is antisemitism. There’s no excuse for it.

Washington Post: At Mar-a-Lago, Trump asked oil CEOs to raise $1 billion for his campaign and told them if he gets back in the White House he'll immediately reverse dozens of Biden’s environmental rules and policies and stop new ones from being enacted. https://wapo.st/3UBf4Fy

Not a nanosecond of thought for the REASONS environment regs were enacted, for the good they do wildlife, water, people, the Earth! Plunder, greed, wreckage, destruction, poison — just as the “ruling elite” have always done.

Wednesday, May 8🌺

  1. Every bush, shrub & tree in my entire yard has been in frenetic motion from WIND 💨🍃all day, even though it’s sunny & warm. I’m hunkering down inside.
  2. Hosting a birthday 🎂 dinner for my grandson this weekend & had to order a crapload of junk food today. Balanced it out with an indulgent package of halibut.
  3. Vagabond son & DIL left Zion NP for Bryce Canyon, which I remember (as a four-year-old) as the land of pink stone castles with turrets. This pic is of Zion.

DEMOCRATS want what is good for our country & good for everyday Americans.

🔹Reproductive Freedom
🔹Immigration Reform
🔹Gun Safety Laws
🔹Tax Equity, Including Wealth Tax & IRS Enforcement
🔹Climate Crisis Solutions & Funding
🔹Judiciary Ethics Reform
🔹Voting Rights
🔹Equality For All
🔹Continuing Support For Ukraine & NATO
🔹Etc.

“This is news but it’s hardly unexpected..." Joyce Vance wrote. “Judge Cannon seems desperate to avoid trying this case. This isn’t justice. defendants aren’t the only ones with speedy trial act rights, we the people have them too.”

“After the election,” professor of law and former chief White House ethics lawyer Richard Painter commented, “if Trump wins Jack Smith gets fired, the case gets dismissed, and Judge Cannon is ready for SCOTUS.”

Your cheery scenario only works if we all donate & join together to GET OUT THE VOTE.

Turnout, even in presidential election years has not reached 70% in 100 years. Districts have been gerrymandered into Republican oblivion, voting rights have been decimated by MAGA-GOP courts, and Gaza is taking a toll on Dem approval.

Media’s breathless, hysterical, round-the-clock, clickbait coverage of the protests is yet another example of how the fourth estate has abandoned any and all responsibility to inform and educate in exchange for advertiser-luring clicks.

I am still waiting for the major part of the media to own up to their role in helping to elect Trump in 2016. Their coverage of everything else has been failing us all and this is no different. A large portion of people have also apparently learned nothing.

cynblogger,
@cynblogger@sfba.social avatar

@TonyStark
Consumer demand CAN influence what & how the media reports political figures & issues.

In the 2016 election, US voters were totally screwed out of any honest vetting of Trump because of his celebrity appeal, the focus on his outrageous statements, “but her emails,” and his media manipulation. We NEVER heard the truth.

This election isn’t just for president — it’s setting our future course for either democracy OR fascism.

All media chases the flashiest object & today’s media is leaving TRUTH behind in the dust.

WE CAN DEMAND that all media report Pres. Biden’s administration’s record of successes (which is an amazing one) and his future agenda.

WE CAN DEMAND that all media report not only Trump’s fascist agenda, but every instance where that agenda will be UNCONSTITUTIONAL & a violation of his oath of Office.

We have SIX MONTHS LEFT to save this country. Millions of voters are not getting factual info on either Pres. Biden’s record or Trump’s lethal plans.
