Newborn's friend, PJ Pérez, described him as "a madman. A poet. A motherfucker whose good side you'd want to stay on. He was a father, a son, a passionate and dedicated fighter for what's right." Shersty was born to a working class family in Florida, and joined the Air Force in order to fund college which his parents could not afford.

The pair, both amateur musicians, met in Las Vegas, became fast friends and helped co-found the local chapter of militant anti-fascist group ARA. ARA took the fight to neo-Nazis who were recruiting in the local skinhead scene and attacking Black and Latino schoolchildren as well as white "race traitors".

One neo-Nazi was swiftly jailed for the murders, and others were convicted in 2012. ARA continued their fight against white supremacists across the US, and helped disrupt many of their activities, and successfully drove them from many local youth subcultures.

We have someone who flies American flags on the utility poles along our street on some holidays. Today, I struck the one on the pole outside our house and repositioned it upside down, which is the international sign of distress. This is exactly what Samuel Alito, the Supreme Court Justice, did when Biden was elected.

There is nothing more alarming than having a sadistic, narcissistic, psychopathic, war criminal, fascist, and kleptocrat as president of the United States.

It's shocking anyone would have voted for this person and more shocking anyone would still support him. This is the new 'IQ Test': if you support him, you have failed.

He's really trying to provoke the guy filming into assaulting him. "Do something about it." Then celebrating about an event that, yes killed terrorists, but also killed and maimed civilians, including children. Is this who we really want representing us? Let's not forget that he also wore an Isreali uniform into the halls of Congress.

Saw this image posted and had to see what shirts they were putting it on…. Found it…
I get the point they are trying to get across, 100%, but will everyone? Or will some people who have no idea about benefit cuts or the shit vets are dealing with see this as “yeah! They do need to honor their contracts!” And this whole thing backfires. Veterans need real advocacy and not trashy shirts.
Someone literally sat there and asked chat to make them an image of a firing squad aimed at disabled vets and thought it was a good idea to sell on t-shirts and that blows my mind lol.
To me this looks like something that you’d find from a random Etsy shirt seller, and not a national veterans organization.
