Don’t call it a comeback.
I’ve been here for years.
And my war against the Democratic Party’s unacceptable corruption is just beginning.

A wildfire broke out this morning not far from my sweetheart’s house at Reno.
The West is burning, yet Washington wastes our tax dollars on weapons & wars for oil—which only accelerate climate collapse—while failing to adequately resource firefighters.

This is an interesting question. Why didn’t Nixon get the Graham Platner treatment?

Angie Nixon opened a banned bookstore that offers free tutoring, free food and community building. She was also a union organizer. She modeled her work after The Black Panthers.
The urgency of decisions that should have been made 20 years ago to protect the future grow increasingly insufficient as our leaders continue to bury their hands in the sand, and double down on a fossil fuel paradigm that threatens life on Earth.

The Shahid Buttar case followed the exact same DSA playbook. He was randomly accused of sexual assault, but rather than do their research, far left “reporters” ran with the story — even helped push it out there. I researched the story for 8 months and found 100% it was false. DSA smeared a brown Muslim man for their own political agenda and the press wouldn’t listen to @ShahidForChange despite mountains of evidence it was all a lie. They did it for Pelosi of all people because Buttar was performing well against her. It’s likely no coincidence that Gary McCoy works for Pelosi.
Call me skeptical due to the authors here (far left operatives) and the source (DSA activist, filed this year). Let’s not forget this is the DSA playbook. Read my exposé on their similar claims against @ShahidForChange which turned out to be lies. marinatimes.com/smear-campai…

The war on Iran launched by the Trump-Netanyahu Axis of Evil has stretched on for far longer than its proponents guessed at the outset. As the damage to the global economy continues to mount, their desperation appears increasingly evident.

Israel’s depraved sexual torture of detainees has gone on for years.
Nakba Day offers an apt moment to observe that human rights have been—and remain—in exile.

Many Americans are fed up with the complicity of elected Democrats, but most grassroots voices can do only so much.
Californians, however, enjoy a unique opportunity to reject business as usual by electing Green Party nominee Butch Ware for Governor.

#MaytheFourth is a great time to rediscover the profound allegory that prompted Lucas to write Star Wars.
It wasn’t just a western set in space.
Its message holds immense relevance for America in 2026.

listen, this little video might actually be the single best thing I've ever been involved in producing in my whole career - take 128 seconds to watch it and pass it on

Absolute malpractice by national media to not mention Connie Chan when reporting on this race. Saikat is framed as this outsider when he’s a rich carpetbagger.

None of this could be happening without the abject, groveling, gutless complicity of so many 'leaders' in media and politics across the world.
Shahid Buttar (find me on Substack and BlueSky) retweeted
Nothing against Hasan, love his work, but it’s weird how all left media is ignoring Connie Chan. She’s polling w/in a margin of error of Saikat and has nearly all the local progressive endorsements.
