We have had 17 years of Austerity where everyone suffers so the richest don't. Now it is time for 17 years of Anti-austerity where the richest suffer so everyone else doesn't.

Ben Cohen (yes, from Ben & Jerry’s) just unveiled a towering sculpture in DC showing what $100 billion in nuclear weapons spending looks like. That’s what the U.S. blows every year, half of it on building new nukes while people here can’t afford rent, insulin, or clean water.

7 years, 9 months and 21 days since Regina Doherty MEP bare-faced lied to me.

Bassem Youssef cooked that gaslighter.

As non white familles are burned out of the homes in #Ballymena and communities terrified, an English fascist party soars in the UK polls, aided and abetted by Keir Starmer and his Labour cronies, who have consistently validated their racism and xenophobia. #StarmerOut
