Religion isn’t under attack by America. It’s America that’s under attack by religion.

@otownKim @HamonWry The Kibbutznik Carpenter from Natz'ret made me a leftist.

If the Carpenter walked into Joel Osteen's 'church', he would be overturning their merchandise tables, and chasing them with a whip...

The Students Have Never Been the Enemy

Student protest movements have historically functioned as an indispensable corrective for America and the West. That is the legacy of 1968 we should be talking about.

Trump informed a rally in Ohio yesterday that there will be a "bloodbath" if he's not elected. Robert Reich responds:

"Trump is clearly desperate. He knows that his future freedom and his fortune both depend on winning in November. He has no qualms about turning Americans against Americans to achieve this goal. Apparently he is even willing to fuel violence, a second civil war."

@wdlindsy The war over slavery began in Kansas in 1855, and was fought for six years between independent civilian militias, before the artillery barrage on Ft Sumter.

It began with armed poll watchers from Missouri and Texas.

Right now, the people sending the Trumplicans to the Texas-Mexico border are organizing armed poll watchers for swing states.

Given all of the armed confrontations between right-wingers and federal agents over the last couple of decades, lots of people think it's already begun.
