@4 So did poor Polymephus, Achilles.

Gosh, the 2024 Democrats sure paid a steep price on Tuesday 5 Nov 2024 to appease AIPAC and Israel that the rest of us in America -- Jews, Christians, Buddhists, Muslims, atheists, Catholics, Baptists, Orthodox, Hindus, Sikhs-- all have to pay for today in billions and billions of dollars and hundreds and thousands of medical bankruptcies every year.

And the US is still more than a galaxy and a half away from universal healthcare, as enjoyed by the residents of Israel, Germany, Canada, Taiwan, Cuba, tiny Albania, Greenland, 95% of Iran, and Mexico in 2027.

Wow.

Great job, corporate and AIPAC Dems!

Who are the Democrats fielding for POTUS in 2028? John Fetterman, Josh Shapiro, or Kamala Harris (again)?

That will certainly recapture 6,265,888 supporters they lost on Tuesday 5 Nov 2024.

*** Serial Killer Slaughters Three Palestinians in Gaza; No Suspects Arrested ***

"Jack the Ripper has struck again in the Gaza Strip. Three Palestinians were killed and several others maimed on Thursday after an Israeli drone strike targeted a civilian vehicle in the Al-Rimal neighborhood west of Gaza City.

No suspects have been arrested for this heinous triple homicide, or for other unsolved mass murders in the Gaza Strip which continues to baffle international investigators."

~snip~

Title should be: "MS: Woman of Color Wrongly Accused of Stealing Diapers, Police Kill Infant"

And two jurisdictions responded to this national security crisis: The city PD and the county deputy sheriffs.

I can just imagine the call:

"All units. All units. Crime in progress. Black woman stealing diapers from Wal-Mart at Noose and Lynch Shopping Center." Please respond."

"Hey, Cyrus! We got a damn n****r stealing at Wal-Marts. Lock and load!"

"Yee-haw!"

So, the shoplifting was an allegation. The woman paid for the diapers.

The woman tried to tell the cops there was an infant in the car.

And whether she stole them or not is moot, there was no call for violence or gunplay by the bosch.

These People of Color were mercilessly shot at as if they were Palestinians in Gaza.

Under the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ), Secretary of War Crimes Pete Hogsbreath must immediately be court-martialed by a panel of Flag Officers for "rank dereliction of duty during time of war," a level of poor performance so deficient that it amounts to criminal misconduct -- not mere incompetence or lack of experience.

I'm just real darned glad and grateful that the 2024 Democratic Party POTUS ticket-- whom my family and I all voted for on Tuesday 5 Nov 2024 because that was POTUS Jimmy Carter's final wish to see a Woman of Color finally ascend to the Presidency -- was the party of inclusivity, the "Big Tent" as people say, that welcomed 6,265,888 pacifists, pro-Palestine supporters, antiwar Samaritans, and progressives, or else America would be in real deep doo-doo right now.

Dylann Storm Roof, mass murderer of nine People of Color in a Charleston, SC church on 17 June 2015, is another perfect recruit for the American taxpayer funded and US-armed Israeli Death Forces (IDF).

The IDF will be close to slaughtering 75,000 Gazans by the end of the year.

Dylann Roof would fit right in.

And MLB promotes players to wear BDU-themed uniforms-- military camo-- jingoism-- to fuse sports and war.

"God Bless America" -- made famous by notorious racist Kate Smith-- was sung during the seventh-inning stretch at every major league ballpark for a full season following the 9/11 attacks.

Nota Bene: Kate Smith wrote "That's Why Darkies Were Born" (1931) and "Pickaninny Heaven" (1933).

The NFL does the same, fusing sports and war, and it's insidious PSYOP -- war-mongering -- being perpetrated on the American public.

*** Israeli Cabinet Minister Suggested Deploying Nuclear Weapon Against People in Gaza ***

Uh, the world is supposed to be afraid of the Mullahs and Iran?

Well put, Danni.

ICYMI, see my OP on medical clinic cuts in the US.

AIPAC political candidates, Congressmen, and Senators -- the aiders and abettors of America's monumental economic and moral decline in order to help Israel -- better start taking precautions in public lest some of them start getting shivved one by one.

Mega-oligarchs travel around with a phalanx of well-armed bodyguards-- like Felon Musk-- not so much for the occasional stalker or psychopath that an experienced bouncer can deal with, but because dedicated Samaritans, Trotskyites, and Justice-Seekers are after them for good reason.

On Tuesday 3 Nov 2026, dead-end AIPAC lepers from both political parties will be as popular as the bubonic plague.

And this fallen hypocritical soulmonger wants Jews to accept Christ, like JD Vantz wants for his Hindu Brahmin wife. Does Jackson Lahmeyer ply his trade on behalf of "Jews for Jesus?"

The tax-exempt status for churches has to go. And maybe federal or state standards for sky pilots other than a correspondence course certificate.

Of course, none of this will ever happen in Elmer Gantry's uber-evangelical Amerikkka.

Coriolanus was just teasing.

The impact of the 'Big Beautiful Bill' is starting to take terrible effect, before the Tuesday 3 Nov 2026 election, when afterwards more painul cuts will be felt. Earlier this year House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) ominously warned that to reduce the budget deficit that Republicans themselves created, all "cards were on the table," including unethically taking funds from Medicare and Social Security.

Billions of dollars go to Israel every year to kill Muslims in the Middle East, billions of dollars have been transferred to super-wealthy oligarchs in the US, and billions of dollars will go to Iran to help them move from 95% to 100% coverage under their universal healthcare plan. And since Russian oligarchs have invested heavily in Iran, they will benefit from Dummkopf Trumpf's largesse.

Meanwhile, in our insidious for-profit healthcare system, an average 630,000 Americans declare bankruptcy every year over exorbitant and unpayable medical bills, a crisis unheard of in Israel, Germany, Canada, Cuba, Greenland, Taiwan, tiny Albania, Iran, Mexico, and the UK.

Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky said the drone strike was an answer to last week's Russian attack on Kyiv, which set ablaze a major religious landmark, the Pechersk Lavra monastery: "We don't want this war and have never wanted it. But if Ukraine burns, your Moscow will burn too."

Like serial killers David Berkowitz (AKA "the Son of Sam)" or "Jack the Ripper," the Israeli Death Forces (IDF) continues their mass murder spree in Gaza, the West Bank, and Lebanon, all funded by the hardworking American taxpayer.

Since the so-called "cease-fire," over the past eight months the IDF has liquidated over 1,000 Palestinians in Gaza, wounding another 3,157. The total death toll in Gaza is now 73,121 Muslims.

My pen and paper calculations estimate the IDF-- like uniformed Richard Ramirezes-- will be close to slaughtering 75,000 Gazans by the end of the year.

In Lebanon, 247 children have been killed and 992 injured; an average of 12 children killed or maimed every day by the US-supported IDF. Israeli National Security Itamar Ben-Gvir recently suggested the IDF abduct Lebanese children, a war crime, and ironically Lebanese children would be safer being tortured in Israeli prisons than being bombarded by IDF rockets or drones.

The world's worst persons and we can't get rid of them. Incredible.

"I work my fingers to the bone for you people and this is the thanks I get!"

"I work my fingers to the bone for you people and this is the thanks I get!"

This deal works out quite well for-- wait for it -- the Kremlin and Russian oligarchs who have invested billions of dollars in Iran.
