Zionism is Racism.
The sectarian violence in Palestine won’t end until the original crime is addressed. Not all Jews are Zionists, and incredibly, not all Zionists are Jews. (or Republican)
Since 2016, the Democrat Party has been collapsing.
Trump didn’t win in 2016 or 2024. Democrats lost.
Hate mongering is no substitute for leadership. I’m a working-class independent voter. We need federal legislation to counter the consolidation of power, wealth and influence by corporate oligarchs. (corporate fascism)
Corporations don’t have any civil rights. Corporations aren't persons.
Corporations are artificial entities, created by statute, not constitutional provision. Congress can regulate, limit and even abolish them at will. The bipartisan system fails when corporate syndicates “own” both parties.
A tariff is a sales tax that victimizes working-class families.
Tax corporate profiteering instead. Only those corporations that create and preserve jobs should be allowed to keep their profits.
Are Democrats defending or assaulting democracy?
In June of 2025, support for the Independent Party (IPO) passed the 5% voter registration threshold needed to create a primary election for independents. In July of 2025, bipartisan elections were preserved when governor Kotek signed HB3908-2025. Raising the threshold to 10%.
Meanwhile, HB3166-2025 would have replaced bipartisan elections with a “unified” primary election. All candidates and voters participate equally. Five candidates advance. It died in a Democrat controlled committee.
The “Lincoln Primary” is a “unified” tracking poll for the U.S. Presidential race. Lasting from February 1st through August 31st. All candidates and voters participate equally. Five candidates advance. (lincolnprimary.org)
Democrats reject free and equal elections. Voters reject Democrats.
Bipartisan elections force “voting for the lesser of two evils” and enable corporate fascism. By advancing just two candidates, “Top Two” primaries preserve bipartisan elections.
