I support @Sean4congress. We Greens haven't yet achieved the power to move green values forward, and sustain it. Let's support people like Sean who hold great values and run for a better world. Rather than writing good people off, practice SOLIDARITY. Even with disagreements.

Just donated to Jill Stein for President! So glad Jill decided to run & keep the Green Party as strong as it can be. She IS on the side of real people. She knows there ARE solutions in health, housing, education & more, when the US ends its focus on war. jillstein2024.com

Wish I'd been able to be part of this delegation to Venezuela. Looking forward to learning (Sept 6, 3pm PT) about what's happening now, years after US imposed sanctions under Trump and Biden! There's still esperanza - hope. codepink.org/venezuela_repo…

I'll watch Lee Camp, a comedian that makes sense of politics. George Carlin's daughter Kelly Carlin said, "Lee is one of the few keeping my father's torch lit." You can register for zoom event Sat 8/5, 6pm Pacific Time: gp.org/camp_processor

@CornelWest -- now running for president seeking the Green Party nomination -- tried supporting Obama and Biden. Then he looked at how they did not benefit poor and working people, and knew he/we had to build outside of the two-party system and their blame-game excuses

@RalphNader @TheDemocrats @GreenPartyUS @CornelWest @tribelaw Gore lost in 2000 for a list of reasons that have nothing to do with Nader & Greens. These include voter obstruction by the GOP in Florida, a biased Supreme Court ruling, and Gore's weak campaign — he even lost Tennessee, his home state.

Who "spoiled" in 2000? Dem voters. 308,000 Florida Dems voted for Bush. Only 24,000 Dems (97,000 voters overall) in Florida voted for @RalphNader. @TheDemocrats use the spoiler accusation against @GreenPartyUS to avoid explaining why they lose votes. @CornelWest @TribeLaw

liberals are so strange. Why are they mad at tucker Carlson for giving a platform to Jimmy Dore? You will win the lottery before you will find an anti-war, anti-imperial voice in the liberal controlled corporate media. The issue is what happened to liberalism. One word - Obamism

The corporate Goliaths are moving to consolidate their control on relatively new territories. Venture capital funds are buying up large agricultural farmlands and turning farm owners into farm tenants. They are also buying up huge numbers of residential homes and shoving aside...

Since gerrymandering is trending, the only way to eliminate gerrymandering is proportional representation. Pass it on!

Incredible that the UK ordered the extradition of Julian Assange to the US for the crime of publishing truth. And no, these truths did not put people's lives in danger, the truths only hurt the ability of "people in power" to lie to the rest of us. Freejulian Assange

James Baldwin cuts through B.S., with wide understanding, "I imagine one of the reasons people cling to their hates so stubbornly is because they sense, once hate is gone, they will be forced to deal with pain."
