Peter Daou

WELCOME NEW FOLLOWERS 🙏🏽 If you're new to my commentary: I'm a political independent — I don't support either establishment party or their corporate media mouthpieces. I'm a follower of Jesus (not of organized religion), and I believe we are called to protect the vulnerable and oppressed. I grew up a hunter and gun owner, was a child conscript, and survived a decade in a war zone. Which is why I find human violence, in all its terrible forms, to be a scourge on our planet. I've been working in national politics for 25 years, and I've come to recognize that Americans are among the most propagandized people in the world. I believe in liberty and justice for ALL, freedom of speech and religion, due process, and our Constitutional right to protest. I respect those who are willing to defend their principles under all circumstances, not just when it fits a partisan agenda. I believe in honor, loyalty, integrity, fairness, family, and community. I believe no one in America (or anywhere) should be homeless, hungry, or lack health care. I don't want my government subsidizing war crimes or fighting other people's conflicts. I respect healthy debate and disagreement, but I have no tolerance for duopoly talking points and spin. Most importantly, I believe we must treat each other with compassion, kindness, and love. Thank you for being here. P.S. Before politics, I had a career as a producer/keyboardist, working on hundreds of recordings by artists including Miles Davis, Björk, and Mariah Carey.

I had a strange dream last night where my mother, who passed in 2024, told me we're in a "rapid influx" simulation. I had no idea what that meant, but I looked it up and it's an actual theory.

Happy Birthday to my kind, loving, brilliant, beautiful soulmate (and much better half) @LeelaDaou❣️❣️

We are each just a voice, a single spark of life. We all return home to the source. The oppressor and the oppressed, the powerful and the powerless — no one is spared, no one is special. But for our brief time here, we can choose to stand for kindness & decency, or to serve evil.

I took this video to give you a moment of peace.

GOOD vs. EVIL Pick a side.

I played this for you. I hope it gives you a moment of calm and healing.

@uNrTrRsxhicsXyC It's both, for those whose moral code is derived from their faith. Which is a lot of people on earth.

@peterdaou This ain't a reason. Human empathy is.

Anyone who can pull the trigger on a child is a demon from the bowels of hell.

A lucky shot. I pointed my camera at this eagle as it took flight off a light pole.

"The LORD hates hands that shed innocent blood, feet that are quick to rush into evil, a false witness who pours out lies, and a person who stirs up conflict in the community." - From Proverbs 6:16-19

Tell us, how much hell must the people of Gaza endure??? Their homes destroyed, their children massacred, and now rats gnawing them alive. When will world leaders say ENOUGH!? When will the complicit media stop sanitizing these crimes against humanity?

If you've read the Bible, you know Isaiah 58:6–7 says, "loose the chains of injustice, untie the cords of the yoke, set the oppressed free, share your food with the hungry, provide the poor wanderer with shelter, clothe the naked, and not turn away from your own flesh and blood."

@pinkAKArose Very compelling argument.

@peterdaou Fuck you

More civilians were bombed in four years of a Biden/Harris administration than 5+ years of Trump's two presidencies. So there's ZERO moral logic for reelecting the Democrat in 2024. Voting third party was absolutely the morally sound choice.

🕊️🇱🇧

@JustAMazen I have no idea what they preferred. And neither do you. But either way, Biden and Harris provided an endless supply of bombs, money, and excuses to raze Gaza. How can you possibly reward that with a vote?

@peterdaou Would you agree that both, Putin and Netanyahu preferred Trump to be re elected?

@JustAMazen That makes no sense.

@peterdaou OhMyGoodness 🤷‍♂️ Both Putin and Netanyahu knew damn well they could convince you to make this claim. Well done🤨

@ShannaPersin @leeladaou Thank you Shanna!🙏🏽

@leeladaou @peterdaou Happy Birthday Peter! 🎉 Can’t wait to hear the new stuff - hugs to you both 🙏🏼

Happy Birthday to my dear husband @peterdaou! 🎉🥳❤️ After two decades away from his career as a producer and keyboardist, I'm overjoyed that he's starting to work on new tracks. Here's a highlight thread of his top 90s remixes: x.com/peterdaou/stat… And here's a taste of his new work. Enjoy!!
