Thank you @KaitlanCollins @CNN for allowing me to speak on the pressing need to dismantle the gears of US imperialism and abolish NATO. The war in Ukraine and the ongoing tragedy in Israel/Gaza are both fueled by war profiteering, a dark testament to the Military Industrial…

We must be very careful in celebrating this decision by the CO Supreme Court. It's true that brother Trump is a bonafide gangster and neofascist who must be held accountable. At the same time, we don't want the courts deciding the outcome of elections - this power must reside…

The genocide of precious Palestinians is a fundamental litmus test for any presidential candidate or person with a moral conscience: Biden, Trump and RFK Jr. are colossal failures of this test! All three reflect a deep spiritual decay and moral decadence in regard to this crime
