The suspect in the assasination of Democratic politicians runs a PMC called The Praetorian Guard. That’s all you need to know.

The language of Republicans is the language of conquest. They are declaring war on democracy in all but name. Blood is on their hands. Will they “liberate” states the way they liberated Iraq? When do we call a spade a spade?

With the tragic assassination of a Minnesota Democratic leader, I’m going to underline this point again.

The East Coast has shown up, 2.4 million and counting, with massive turnouts in small towns across the country. Shoutout to the Carolinas, Georgia, and Ohio for showing up strong!

When I said earlier in the week that Democrats needed to awaken to the fact that their colleagues on the hill want them dead or detained following Padilla’s assault, I meant it literally.

Ok I feel bad for saying we have more hope of watching our Democrats get carted off to the camps than stand up for us collectively because the gun got jumped literally to assasinations but wow here we are what the fuck The crisis is past due

What do you call it when you start to murder your political opponents through a weaponized reactionary minutemen vigilante militia? A purge? Who did those? Not Nazis, right?

Where are all the #Israeli experts who decide #Gazan children are Hamas right now on deaths in #Tehran and #TelAviv - were those civilians Hamas too, or #IDF, or how does this work? Just trying to figure out to process here.

#Israel cannot be both sympathetic victim and belligerent occupant at the same time. End #Apartheid Now. Free #Palestine 🇵🇸

At this point, we have more hope of watching our elected Democratic officials get taken to the camps themselves on live TV before they fight for us as a collective. #NOKINGS

Maybe being an unstable wartime outpost under constant threat is just what happens after almost 80 years of ethnic cleansing and near constant xenophobic colonial belligerent attack of every neighbor you meet 🤷‍♂️

There were civilians in every hospital in Gaza, too. Where was your empathy then, #TelAviv?

“US Regime Deploys Troops, Arrests Citizens, and Detains Opposition Amid Mass Pro-Democracy Protests” What if we wrote about events in Trump’s America in the way that Western media describe African and Middle Eastern countries? Brilliant stuff, from @premthakker.bsky.social

Today a number of veterans, one being 80 years old, were arrested at the Capitol building in DC for peacefully protesting against the unconstitutional unlawful assembly of the orange felon’s dictator march. I stand with these heroes who stand against fascism.

Trump’s regime forces, marines in Los Angeles breaking their oaths, have detained their first US civilian identified as Marcos Leao, 27, an Army veteran on his way to an office of the Department of Veterans Affairs when he accidentally crossed a yellow tape boundary. #3E #StopICE

Gaza matters for the same reason every civilian life in Tehran, or Tel Aviv also matters. It’s because anywhere in the world where a civilian is being targeted, so are we all. We absorb the collective debt of violence our leaders create with their avarice and cruelty.

We’re at war with Iran, Trump’s gone into hiding, nobody will tell us our objectives, plan or end game, our Sec of Defense is a useless dipshit, our Sec of State lied about it, our DNI loves the leader of Iran’s greatest ally, & tomorrow we’re having a parade for Trump’s bday.

My friends, if what we hear is true, martial law is already upon us in all but name. The military has seized citizens outside the Insurrection Act. Assume you are not safe.

The West is falling in line with a hostile imperial expansionist narrative, and it’s no surprise given the rising tide of fascism across the board. It’s all been leading to this.

We must not forget them, now more than ever, when Israel murders in the dark.

Why Gaza? Why Palestine? Because this is the festering wound at the heart of the entire world system. It exposes centuries of rot and evil personified in geopolicy that has now captured the fate of all the world in its grasp.

It’s no mistake these attacks and internet blackouts come as Israel executes its Final Solution in Gaza. Don’t lose focus on the genocide. It’s still the most important story here at the heart of all other things.

There is a death cult in control of our government who believes Israel must start a holy war with Iran to herald the Second Coming. That’s why #LinsdeyGraham prays for Israel. They want a war. The bodies of Gazan children are already sacrificed to their God of Death everyday. We’re all next.

Mark this for the history books: “We’re talking about the president exercising his authority, and the president is of course limited to his authority. That’s the difference between a constitutional government and King George,” said Judge Charles Breyer.

Just like with the Universities - Trump plays by schoolyard bully rules - pick the biggest fish in any pool and humiliate them to establish dominance and cause a chilling effect. Except this time it’s with use of the military against civilians. We are totally safe everyone, nothing to see here.

As you watch the horrors, remember these are the people who wanted you to believe student authors were terrorists. We gave these monsters power. Time to take it back.

Is it ok to be against nuclear war, or is that also Hamas?

Well, at least Kristi Noem didn’t shoot Sen. Padilla in the face.

It’s looking more and more like a dictatorship. That’s no way to treat a U.S. Senator. Claiming he was an attacker and failed to identify himself is delusional he’s a sitting senator. America is watching, and the tides are turning.

If you wanted a super duper TLDR on what’s going on: King Pedo started a military coup while also siccing his boy BiBi on Tehran to kick off WW3 because we can’t prosecute him for the Epstein Files if we are all burned to a charred crisp in thermonuclear war.

Not content with the genocide of the Palestinian people in Gaza, Israel now moves to cleanse the earth of life itself by stoking the fires of nuclear war in our time. For shame. All the world is watching.

‼️RESISTANCE CHECKPOINT‼️ THEY ARE FLOODING THE ZONE AGAIN WAR ABROAD, MARTIAL LAW AT HOME DONT LET THEM DISTRACT YOU THIS IS THE TIME FOR VIGILANCE AND COURAGE NO KINGS, NO EMPERORS COMMUNITY, PEOPLE, PLANET FREE PALESTINE 🇵🇸 EYES UP 👊

‼️‼️🚨‼️‼️

Israel has struck Iran. Here we go. Things are about to spiral.

America is waking to the fact that we’ve been in a cold civil war - one brewed by fascists across the aisle for the soul of the world - which Trump and the GOP now move to unleash into wholesale conflict and consolidation of power. The crisis isn’t arriving. We are well along the path.

Tragically, the outrageous assault of Sen. Padilla today is becoming normal behavior for a Trump administration which is moving us toward authoritarianism. The American people do not like petty tyrants. We defeated King George in 1776. We will defeat King Donald.

Can you imagine how different our world would be if we took the cost of affordable housing for granted at face value the way we do the military budget?

Gaza dies in darkness. Israel is committing war crimes more horrible than minds can bear. You know it, I know it, they know it. Why else cause a blackout? #Gaza #Blackout #Israel

The fascist regime will say anything to justify its grab for absolute power. The Senator clearly identified himself on video for all the world to see. Your authoritarian rule is laid bare.

The state of California needs to arrest the DHS "security" forces for assault and every Democrat in the U.S. Senate needs to sign onto a campaign to impeach Kristi Noem. Right fucking now.

The more Senators and elected officials that force confrontation with the fascists stonewalling government in the Trump Regime the better. Make them reveal their hand with your high office. Show the people none of us are safe. The only way out is through. Unmask the liars.

Democrats need to wake up while there is still time. Frankly, it might already be too late. Jan. 6 wasn’t the lesson it should have been, so let their violence and rhetoric now bring your understanding home.
