Oh cool another chance for Carney to cave to Trump.

Noem: It's a war zone out there! It's crazy!

Them: What do you mean? People are shooting at each other? Bodies in the streets?

Noem: They won't let us pee in their restrooms!

How would you suggest stopping them then? Fascists on a power trip don't give a shit about your letters. Or your signs. Or your songs outside their buildings.

Would England have freed the United States without violence? Would Hitler have backed down from controlling Europe if you held a sign for long enough? How about Putin? Or Netanyahu? Or Pol Pot? Saddam Hussein? Hideki Tojo?

There are countless examples from history where meeting violent with violence is the only answer. They bring it. You either fight back or you die.

I’ve been threatened multiple times by crazy people

That's a totally different situation. They're past threatening. They've already started the violence. The president raped children and his followers are throwing people into concentration camps. And your solution is "just walk away"? What the fuck is wrong with you.

Opening up the “let’s just kill the people we don’t like and don’t want as part of society”

It's already open. They are kidnapping people from their homes and work and sending them to die in foreign concentration camps. It's already here. They're already doing it.

we rejected their politics in the voting booth

This time. Polls last fall had PP set to win. Then Trump came along and we rejected it all. But now Carney, who rode to a win on "elbows up" appears to be putting his elbows down and is caving to Trump. I don't expect he'll win a second time.

19% of respondents think groceries are now easier to afford.

These are the people who love the emperor's new clothes.

When the company wins, the executives win. When the company loses, the workers lose.

They didn't get left behind. They kicked and screamed in denial the whole time. The US government and the US car manufacturers put themselves into this position.

If you came into a billion dollars tomorrow and had the opportunity to help so many people but kept it all for yourself you're already not a good person. You don't even need to wait a year.

They don't have to. The American people aren't doing what needs to be done to stop it.

They need to shut everything down. Nothing works unless the people say it works.

Google says a group of masked fascists kidnapping children from their beds is a "vulnerable group".
