The parade, as it turned out, was something of a disappointing affair

#USPolitics

I am a lifelong Democrat and I swear I will not donate a dime to any of those do-nothing morons until they start fighting to get the fascist removed from power.

Right now sending $100 to Chris Murphy is supporting Trump.

Diversity, equity, and inclusion are not just words, but the keys that opened doors and kept many of us safe, not just in our jobs and homes but also in the streets. These principles, when implemented through policy and law, have created tangible protections that transformed lives.

As a South African who witnessed the collapse of Apartheid and the birth of a democracy, I was raised to believe in the power of people over politics. But living in the United States today, I can’t help but question the democratic ideals this country so proudly claims. With structures like the Electoral College, rampant gerrymandering, lifetime judicial appointments, and the corrupting influence of money in politics, the U.S. system often feels more performative than participatory.

True democracy is one person, one vote, no exceptions. It demands accountability, equity, and inclusion. Anything less is domination dressed as democracy. In this piece, I explore where democracy began, how it evolved, and what it will take to restore its promise—not just in America, but everywhere it’s under threat.

IT'S A WONDER TRUMP DIDN'T USE HIS BIRTHDAY/MILITARY PARADE TO DISHONOR THE MILITARY AND VETERANS FURTHER BY SIGNING AN EXECUTIVE ORDER DECLARING HIMSELF TO BE A VETERAN

IT JUST NEVER OCCURRED TO HIM

"The bill forces the arbitrary sale of at least 2 million acres of Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management lands in 11 Western states over the next five years, and it gives the secretaries of the interior and agriculture broad discretion to choose which places should be sold off"

For my US followers. Call your representatives NOW.
