My grandparents were ranking Communist Party members from a (then) Communist Eastern European country. I know totalitarian Marxists when I see them and today's Democrat Party is exactly like the Communists of my grandparents' country. If it weren't for the constitution and existing checks on power of the different branches of government, I have no doubt the Democrats would behave exactly like the Communists who turned my grandparents' country into an impoverished totalitarian police state. In rhetoric and in policy, many of today's Democrat Party behaviors are eerily reminiscent of how my grandparents described the Communist Party in their country (particularly as it came to power after WWII).

I am 71 now and in all my years I've never seen backwards destructive leadership in our country as I have in the past 4 yrs. For sure in our state of Washington I've witnessed nothing but criminals be given more rights then the law abiding and the innocent. They are accommodating and allowing these acts of criminal behaviors . All I've witnessed is a complete perversion of morals , values, justice . No justice in our court systems anymore as well. In my days there was strict laws for criminal actions. You couldn't even run away from a brutal childhood home without being made ward of the state. All I know we never seen school shootings due to bullying, we never seen as I witnessed in Tacoma area my hometown where the addicted and criminals laughed on media mocking the system saying yes why not keep committing crimes we are let out the same day. There was mental health - bi polar in our days too , alot of my friends bi- polar still working today whom never committed a crime. We never got s.s.I like thousands of the young I c today gets housing help as well catered to without no stipulations, free to keep addicted as I watched them still commit crimes. While law abiding seniors are left on the streets. None of this was allowed in our days.. Complete vixation of any justice or morals in our society today. Our leaders and justice system today has put our world on a complete collision course. Colossal collapses in society today, so toxic.

Salam, Why are students protesting #Israel on college campuses? This is why. #Palestine WHY ARE STUDENTS PROTESTING ISRAEL ON COLLEGE CAMPUSES? Because in the last 6 months: Israel has killed more than 34,000 Palestinians. Israel has displaced more than 1.2 million Palestinians in Gaza (over 50% of the population) Israel has destroyed 62% percent of homes in Gaza. Israel has destroyed all the universities in Caza. Israel has created a man-made famine. Israel is blocking humanitarian aid from entering Gaza. Civil Defense teams in Gaza have found a combined total of 140 mass and unmarked graves. And the U.S. just provided Israel with $17 billion in military funding to fuel this genocide.
