AOC: When you wake up in the morning, you will realize that you voted to defund planned parenthood and take away health care from 13.7 million Americans and when this country wakes up there will be consequences to pay for this

Frost: Tonight the people stealing are not folks with tattoos and hoodies but people wearing suits and ties and congressional pins sitting in the capitol now, not in some alley wrapped in darkness but the United States congress wrapped in the flag. It is disgusting and we will never forget this.

GOP grifters…

Pence: "To have POTUS in Saudi Arabia questioning America's global war on terror & describing is as nation building & interventionist I thought was a disservice to generations of Americans who wore the uniform..particularly giving that speech in Saudi Arabia where 15 of the 19 hijackers hailed from"

In case you hadn't noticed:

Handcuffs, strip search, prison uniforms, cellmates accused of serious crimes? The message we are sending to prospective US visitors could not be more clear: Don't come. beatofhawaii.com/why-these-ha...

Only a matter of time until those responsible for this assessment are fired by Trump. When that happens, will Republicans in Congress finally stand up to the wannabe dictator in the White House?

You’re not imagining it. Americans aren’t nearly as smart as we need to be to understand what is happening in this country. A must-read. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/10/o...

Trump’s tariffs are gutting the economy—over 4,100 factory workers laid off this week alone, with plants shuttering across the country. Chaos reigns while Dictator Donald golfs. This isn’t economic policy; it’s scorched earth. Workers bleed while billionaires cash out. 1/2

Oh.

ECONOMY IN SHAMBLES U.S. job cuts hit 275,240 in March 2025, the highest since the pandemic peak in 2020, surpassing 2001 & 2008 recessions. Layoffs surge as federal cuts, led by DOGE, echo Covid-era losses. It's the third highest monthly total on record.

I’m not going anywhere. I’m not soft-pedaling my rhetoric or refusing to say what I think. This is a time when we need to build informed communities who will not bow down to these fascists who despise our country. I hope you’ll join us and subscribe (free or paid). www.americaamerica.news

From an operational security perspective, this is the highest level of fuckup imaginable. These people cannot keep America safe.

Amen. 🇺🇸 They want you to believe this is radical. It isn’t.

This government is deeply racist. Prove me wrong!

I literally just had to explain this to my mom, who is a very informed person, because the newspaper is covering it in such a passive and piecemeal way. Not only deported, but effectively sold into forced labor. It is GRIM.

Not great

Complete batshit lunacy on the president's Truth Social account. Yes, he really posted this.

“Stop trying to outsmart the guy who just took a shit on the carpet. Shove his fucking face in it.”

Why the fuck is a single Senate Democrat playing “everything is normal” by voting to confirm the Cabinet picks of a fucking dictator? Do. Not. Comply. You have ALL spent the last how many years calling him Hitler and now you’re like, ‘I’m a yes on Goebbels and here’s why…” Fuck that. Stop it. Now.

Eric Braedon: The orange idiot went on television.. and claimed all kinds of things about Newsom and California and the water distribution. All nonsense..

Braedon: I come from a nation that believed in fascist ideology for a while. And we don’t want to go to that again. We are close to it because people want to simplify complex problems. The essence of fascism is to simplify complex problems and feed people who don't have time to read some bullshit.

Several of you are asking me to recommend independent news sources. I am reposting this list of 15 newsletters I recommend in addition to Democracy Docket.
