I VOTED FOR KAMALA
SEO Theorist, Tolkien scholar.
I do not support Netanyahu or his policies. However, I -DO- support Israel's right to exist and to defend itself.
I also support Palestinians' right to exist and live in peace. I hope they will be freed from Hamas' oppression and brutal dictatorship.
I like https://search.brave.com if you're tired of Google.

Michael Martinez :verified:<p>Trump once again screws over the people he promised to help.</p><p>"The very same day as Trump’s big coal announcement, the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) published a notice on its website informing stakeholders that the agency would be pausing the enforcement of its rule titled, 'Lowering Miners’ Exposure to Respirable Crystalline Silica and Improving Respiratory Protection.' The rule would have cut the allowable exposure level of deadly silica dust—20 times more toxic than coal dust and a major cause of black lung disease among coal miners — in half.

Michael Martinez :verified:<p>Every time Team Trump lose a court battle, they excuse their ignoring court orders by saying "a judge doesn't decide [X] policy."</p><p>The proper response to that is ALWAYS "No, the Executive Branch doesn't interpret the law".</p><p>That's a position the GOP have taken for years with their attacks on federal agencies' powers to interpret the law and issue regulations.</p><p>Now, would that force the Trumpists to comply with court orders? No. But as long as you call out their bullshit they have to keep coming up with new bullshit to replace the bullshit you called out. It's a game of Who Gets Tired First.</p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/america" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>america</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>trump</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/law" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>law</span></a></p>

Michael Martinez :verified:<p>The sad, horrible irony of Rupert Murdoch allowing one of his writers to call for Trump's impeachment just puts icing on the cake of Americans' plight.</p><p>But it won't make a difference. Even if Fox News were to do this (and they won't), I don't think it would compel Congressional Republicans to take action or even talk about doing the right thing. They are too far lost in their corruption to be salvaged.</p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/news" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>news</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/america" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>america</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>trump</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/impeachment" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>impeachment</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/wsj" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>wsj</span></a></p><p><a href="https://www.thedailybeast.com/murdoch-paper-floats-impeaching-trump-over-tariffs/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">thedailybeast.com/murdoch-pape</span><span class="invisible">r-floats-impeaching-trump-over-tariffs/</span></a></p>

Michael Martinez :verified:<p>People are again rationalizing <a href="https://c.im/tags/hamas" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>hamas</span></a> into some kind of humanitarian organization, using <a href="https://c.im/tags/Israel" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Israel</span></a>'s bombing campaign as an excuse to promote lies and propaganda that solidify the pretense that Hamas are the good guys.</p><p>They are not.</p><p>Hamas kills <a href="https://c.im/tags/Palestinians" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Palestinians</span></a>.</p><p>Hamas oppresses <a href="https://c.im/tags/gaza" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>gaza</span></a> </p><p>Hamas started this war.</p><p>Hamas continues to hold hostages that it could have released every day since October 7.</p><p>And, yes, Hamas DOES operate from hospitals, schools, and apartment buildings.
