Russian troops are preparing for a “time of war”

Signs are everywhere… war clouds are gathering…Russia. Iran. China. Attack one, attack all. Hopefully 45 is able to see that starting a war with Iran leads to war with the world’s second and third biggest nuclear powers too. With Mr. Let’s-Fuck-Some-Shit-Up at his side, I’m not sure war with Iran and friends isn’t all part of the plan. God help America if that’s true.

Trump’s desperate search for a ‘Reichstag Fire’

Those who would trade even a small amount of essential liberty for the illusion of security, or lofty promises of protection from harms, have already forfeited their freedom, rendering themselves property of their protectors…The State. It’s no different than paying protection…you are just paying with a different currency. You still end up owned by the bully.

Three Myths About SNAP and “Food Stamps” Debunked

The Truth about “Food Stamps”? Well, first, there are no stamps…at least not since like the 60s. In most cases it’s an EBT card, and people depend on on that card…SNAP… to feed their kids and themselves. Why? Because companies have decided that it’s OK to pay employees less than they can survive on. Because disabled veterans and people on Social Security and Disability…people who PAID into the Govt for this “social insurance”…are now being told by the US Government that they can live on less than the poverty rate.
THOSE are the people who depend on these programs. It’s not just a bunch of illegal aliens and lazy ghetto drug dealers like the GOP racist fucks want you to think it is. It’s your kids’ friends in school, in whitebread Connecticut or suburban Indiana. Your neighbors in middle-of-nowhere Kansas or backwoods Vermont. People who did nothing wrong, except to get into a bad place, a real jam, often not even of their own making.
The America I believe in would stop blaming the victims, and become the solution. not more of the same old problem. #EndPoverty #Truth #Resist #N0H8
…and there’s the myths THIS article debunks too.
