Social Democracy isn't socialist. Nordic Model has a series of values and institutions that protect healthy capitalism. Israel is not Zionism, Israel is not Judaism, one can protest Le Cud party values without negating either. Wassermann Schultz is old democrat party same as Biden Harris the unreflective, do nothing wing of the dems that sacrifices workers for foreigners, and cultural Marxist ideology for economic sustainability. There is a reason why the Nordic model produces the most fulfilled, educated, healthy people on the planet.

Democrats create massive inflation by enforcing insane childish covid measures and creating a war between Ukraine and Russia.
Republicans create inflation by leveling the “death to America” govt that was building nukes.
So she is telling you the RNC is not for the people its for the doners .. its to fund raise from the rich for the rich and you red hats think they are for the working class huh.. make that make sense
@ Bloomberg. Please do not propagate delayed news. (1)Putin has no interest in ending this war. He wants the Russian empire back to its original borders. Ukrainians have no choice to fight for their land, lives and culture. Putin has been wiping out libraries, UNESCO protected cultural sites, civilian targets for years (war crimes). He will only accept surrender from Ukraine. The citizens want to be democratic not Russian slaves, which is what will happen if Ukraine loses.
(2) Oddly, our president aligns with dictators around the world, rather than democracies. He has two inexperienced people trying to negotiate terms of the Ukrainian and the Iran war. These two individuals have gone to Ukraine for the first time in four years of the war because this administration does not support Ukraine. (3) The Russian economy is in shambles. Russian bonds have yields of
12% or higher. Ukraine has been drone attacking the Russian equivalent of Amazon (families were purchasing guns and other war gear to send to their loved ones on the front lines since the Russian military was not; after one attack of a Wild Berries (aka Russian Amazon) warehouses, the black plumes of smoke were consistent with dark black hydrocarbon burning which means that the Russians were storing military munitions and oil in those wild berry warehouses- remember the thick black plumes of smoke after the twin towers were hit? Looked the same).
Ukraine is also droning oil refineries (Russians are lined up for gasoline for hours. Oil is bank rolling this war for Russia). Now Russians care about this war since it’s directly affecting them (3) Putin plans to forcibly conscript another 500,000 men after sham elections where he will remain in power. These conscripts live only 14 to 30 days on the front lines. A million men have died. Breaks my heart. He forcibly conscripts men from all over the world who think they are going to Russia for bona fide jobs, including men from the United States, who think that communism, a.k.a. dictatorships are beneficial for the common person. It’s heart breaking. Didn’t we say this type of fascism would never occur after WWII ended? (4) the US military is being weakened by the resignation of experienced leaders, (5) ask any naval leader (including my friend and classmate from Stanford University who was very high ranking in the Navy (now retired) that the Strait of Hormuz was a known bargaining chip for Iran- we were not prepared (6) our president is friendly with dictators who are aligned with Iran and providing intelligence and weapons to Iran who are in turn killing our brave men and women in the military— isn’t that treason? (7) Our special operations team are second to none and we can neutralize any leader in the world but a war is a whole different ball game that requires a different strategy (7) Is it true that because the Iran War is a “special militsry operation” that our military family members are not eligible for death benefits? I need ti investigate that rumor more (8) I’m am Republican-leaning BTW, but not like the fascist regime of this administration and its cult. As a published scientist I believe in science and do not understand the Republican party of now that has divorced itself from education, books, and science— keep its voters uneducated?(9) follow Jake Broe and Professor Gerdis Explains, Caelan Robertson for independent reporting.
You will get more reliable news about the Ukraine war. Definitely not from many news outlets in the US sadly. Billionaires own the narrative since they own the news.

–>> In his 2004 book XXX-Communicated: A Rebel Without a Shul, Luke Ford wrote about a conversation with Goldstein, in which Ford asked Goldstein why Jews were dramatically overrepresented in the porn industry. He answered, "The only reason that Jews are in pornography is that we think that Christ sucks. Catholicism sucks. We don't believe in authoritarianism. Pornography thus becomes a way of defiling Christian culture and, as it penetrates to the very heart of the American mainstream (and is no doubt consumed by those very same WASPs), its subversive character becomes more charged." Ford then asked, "What does it mean to you to be a Jew?" To which Goldstein responded, "It doesn't mean anything. It means that I'm called a kike." Ford also asked, "Do you believe in God?" Goldstein said, "I believe in me. I'm God. Screw God. God is your need to believe in some super being. I am the super being. I am your God, admit it. We're random. We're the flea on the butt of the dog
