⚠️THIS IS MUST SEE⚠️
Edward Bernays is one of the most important people in history that too few people know about.
Once you begin to know him and learn about what he is credited for, you’ll make connections that chip away at our manufactured reality.

The French are decades ahead of Americans when it comes to politics:
“It started with the student revolt, but it concerns the entire society. We are fighting against the government, against war, and against capitalism. The entire society needs to change.”

Ukrainian MP confirms that 2023 peace plan, which was reported by @FT & accepted by Putin but rejected by Zelensky & Biden administration, envisioned:
"- Russia withdraws its troops from most of the four oblasts it had just declared “annexed.”
- The new line of demarcation runs roughly along the line as of February 24, 2022: Crimea and the part of Donbas that Russia controlled before the full-scale invasion.
- Ukraine recognizes Russian control over Crimea. - Ukraine grants Russia an unobstructed land corridor to Crimea.
- The ceasefire regime is guaranteed by NATO countries that provide protection for Ukraine.
- Russia begins negotiations with the US on its own security guarantees.
-Moreover, Russia was ready to give up the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant as well.
-And the 300 billion in frozen assets was to go toward rebuilding all of Ukraine, that is, together with the occupied territories.
-As for Crimea: we were not required to recognize it as Russian, only to recognize Russia’s control over it. In other words, we acknowledge that right now it is under Russian control (which is how it is). We were also required to adopt a law banning the return of Crimea by military means.
-The land corridor to Crimea, a highway and a railway, was to be built at Russia’s expense. The hardest question was how to guard it. That is why the Russians were ready to give up Melitopol, but not Tokmak: they feared we would cut the corridor with artillery.
-Zelensky rejected this proposal at the time."

Majority Report is a garbage show staffed by smug liberals who condescend and lie to their audience. Stop watching this garbage. Also, who is the off-camera shy guy calling a viewer an "idiot" and to "fuck off" because they expressed a view that hurt his feelings?

Obama had the perfect opportunity to pass Medicare For All. Instead, he pushed a give away to Big Insurance and Big Pharma. What a wasted chance. Imagine how many lives would've been saved? Instead, we got two terms of Trump. Which is truly Obama's legacy.

This video is even better. I swear to god the Albanian protesters are actually wizards casting firework spells at the police! All power to the Albanian people.

Macron tried to crackdown on the protests, but it backfired!
Hundreds of thousands of people have turned out across France today to send a clear message that the people won’t be silenced by Macron’s regime.
Neoliberalism is a failed ideology that has accomplished nothing except making the rich richer and tearing our world apart with imperialist wars all while emboldening neofascism.

You know Ukraine is up to some Nazi shit when Poland posts like this lmao
💬 We want to make our Ukrainian friends aware that the kind of patriotism or nationalism represented by the UPA – that is, the desire to create an ethnically pure country, without minorities, without Jews, without Poles, without Czechs, without Roma – is unacceptable in modern Europe. And by espousing such an ideology, one cannot join the European Union.

The protest have spread to Serbia.
That is Spain, France, Italy, Albania, Turkey, India, Indonesia all protesting at the same time.
It's time to force the billionaires out of power.

Now here is something the US corporate media will never show you because it doesn’t fit their Zionist agenda: American Jews protesting against the genocidal state of Israel by burning the Israeli flag in Brooklyn, New York.

For years, stories circulated about Lindsey Graham hiring escorts, the most famous of which, the escort described his mole infested bottom (won't go into details) that Graham called his "ladybugs".
This homophobe who voted against same-sex marriage was a self-hating closeted gay man who never married, but instead, chose to hire escorts, many of whom were very young, under age and vulnerable. This same disgusting f*ck was also a huge advocate against the release of the Epstein files.
When he died (currently burning in hell for his warmongering and preying on vulnerable people), @Republicans and @DNC held vigils, memorial ceremonies, passed more bills to cause more wars and Trump told MAGA to elect his dumb sister into his seat.
Lindsey Graham is hypocrisy personified. Be against gay marriage because somehow, two people committing to each other is "bad" but prey on young underaged boys while murdering people overseas so long as no one knows...is "good".

The fucking nerve and delusions you gotta have to be Rahm Emanuel and shamelessly act like you’re not one of the architects of the disaster we’re all living under.
On the day we learn that the average American family's health insurance premium is $28,000 a year, @RahmEmanuel published this oped in the right-wing Wall Street Journal demanding Dems move to the right and embrace his agenda, which literally doesn't once mention healthcare.

On Lindsey Graham.
Stay with me on this.
The worst kept secret in Washington DC came out today because 3 brave men came out and told the truth and it doesn’t matter if it is after he’s dead.
Brave?
Yes brave.
Why are they brave?
They had to go on camera and tell intimate details of their personal lives.
To the world.
That is extremely difficult to do. Yes it’s brave. And Stressful. They walked into the public square opening themselves to the opinions of the entire world.
No matter your opinion on the issue, they took a courageous leap in coming forward.
If you are critical, would you go on camera and tell your secrets to the entire world?
I would bet a lot of money you wouldn’t.
Ok but there is more to this.
Because this is the world I saw up close in Washington.
I saw behind the curtain and saw ALL the wizards.
Everyone in the highest levels of power in Washington DC are keeping secrets that would destroy their entire lives.
And that’s exactly why they have power.
Not because they are so smart or qualified or the best choice for leadership.
I mean really, if you think our best and brightest are in charge then do some critical thinking and look at the pathetic state of our debt, our dollar, and how our government is run, and the outcome that affects your life.
Their secrets are the only reason these people rise to the top.
Because their secrets are not secrets.
We all knew Lindsey Graham was gay. Everyone did.
Their secrets are levers of control. Keeps them in line. Makes them a team player. And will make them fight the hardest on issues that don’t make sense in order to keep their secrets just that. Secrets.
So everyone is arguing about how this is old news, why now? Or arguing about being gay, and gay issues. Or arguing because that’s what everyone does on the internet, just argue with each other and with bots about issues they don’t have the real truth on, but throw out their strongest opinion anyways.
I’m here to tell you the granular issue you need to dial in on and block out the rest of the noise.
Three gay men just bravely pulled back the curtain and tried to teach you all the most important lesson America needs to learn.
It’s this.
America’s most powerful leaders keep secrets that comprise them in the most dangerous ways for the security, safety, and prosperity of our nation.
That’s the whole point.
I tried my hardest to fight the entire system on both sides of the aisle and couldn’t beat it because YOU ALL keep voting these people back into office and back into power.
By the way, I always cosponsored the Term Limit bill and no matter who is in charge, Pelosi, McCarthy, or Johnson, Dem or Rep, that bill never ever got even close to getting a vote on the House floor.
So the question for you, The American People, is are you able to learn the lesson and if so, what exactly are YOU going to do about it?
Ask yourself, what are you voting for? Donating to? Volunteering for?
And are you really satisfied with the outcome election cycle after election cycle?

If democrats support fascists around the globe they support fascists domestically. If they can support Israel, support Pinochet, support Zelenskyy support any fascist anywhere, they v do not care about fascism at home. Defeating fascism is rhetoric to these ppl.
Sascha Riley also named Senator Lindsey Graham as someone who frequented the Epstein sex trafficking parties of underage children that Riley was repeatedly abused at.

This is bullshit. Hillary Clinton says the Republican party needs to transform so the government can serve the people. This is who Republicans are and it’s also who Democrats are, which is why things won’t get better after they win. Both parties serve capital and war, not people.
People should engage in elections. For local elections, participation could be significant, depending on the circumstances.
Passivity / disengagement is easily ignored & dismissed.
Submit a ballot. Even if it's a blank one.
Just don't walk away believing it'll change anything.

NEW:
Lindsey Graham & Jim Clyburn were under FBI investigation, as part of a potentially explosive corruption probe in S Carolina.
Then Trump purged the anti-corruption teams at DOJ & the case died.
