Garland and the MIC. Trump would NOT have become President again and Genocide would not have been committed in Gaza in our name. Yes, I'm a far left woke liberal and I'm proud of it. I'm squarely for DEMOCRACY in our land in all lands. I'm for LIVIING HEALTHY HUMAN BEINGS in our land and in all lands. I'm for NATO and it's growth. I'm for the complete restoration of WOMEN'S RIGHTS. I'm for the complete abolition of THE "CITIZENS UNITED" case. Citizens' United, since it gave way to legalization of money in our elections by the oligarchs. And I'm all for getting politics out of/and ethics back in the Supreme Court, once and for all.
