This is the page in the history book where future generations may ask, “Why didn’t more people speak up?" Don’t let this slide.

It appears that we are actively and directly involved in a major conflict between Israel and Iran which is rapidly escalating and the only thing we have heard from the admin is an obviously false denial from the Sec of State and a Truth Social post from the president about peace talks.

NEWSOM: "It's a vulgar display. It's the kind of thing you see with Kim Jong Un, Putin, dictators that are weak… How weak do you have to be to commandeer the military for your birthday?“

Newsom: "He's been a stone cold liar about what he said we talked about. He never discussed the National Guard. Period. Full stop. I would love to share with you what he actually talked about. It would send shivers up your spine."

The man who launched an attempted coup on the United States in 2020 and instigated an insurrection at the Capitol that resulted in five deaths now claims that people in Los Angeles are launching an insurrection. They’re not. [Cartoon by Adam Zyglis]

Trump doesn’t understand why everyone hates Putin today since the Soviet Union was our ally in WWII, but everyone likes Japan and Germany now. He says he can’t understand it and neither can Putin. Dumbest MF on the planet.

“ICE” as snatching people from churches now. Never forget they said this👇🏾 MAN AT CHURCH: “We don’t want this in our property.” ICE: “The whole country is our property.” No IDs shown, non-government out of state plates, basic tactical vests that just say police. Who are these men?

This is a key point👇

They did this to a sitting senator while they knew cameras were rolling. Imagine what they are doing to more vulnerable people in the dark.

The fundamental choice has not been as stark since World War II: democracy and freedom, or dictatorship and tyranny. Trump and his sycophants are siding with the latter. The rest of us must loudly, proudly, and boldly proclaim our allegiance to the former.

Yes. Exactly like that.

The president exists in a dystopian fantasy world with no connection to reality

In Trump’s militantly fascist worldview, peaceful protestors become “insurrectionists”, and a “swarming mob”while the REAL insurrectionists (Jan 6th) are pardoned and cast as patriotic superheroes.

The accelerating pace of Trump’s authoritarianism is evident on the streets of Los Angeles, as he deploys the National Guard to intimidate and harass both immigrants and protestors.

BREAKING ABC News has suspended Terry Moran for this now deleted tweet. This morning the White House Press Secretary said she asked ABC News for accountability. A reminder that ABC and George Stephanoupolus paid a multi-million dollar settlement to Trump.

Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy: “Important to remember that Trump isn’t trying to heal or keep the peace. He is looking to inflame and divide. His movement doesn’t believe in democracy or protest - and if they get a chance to end the rule of law they will take it. None of this is on the level.”

Proper ‘Handmaids Tale guardians’ vibes. Just guys with guns, who all of a sudden are in charge for some reason.

All my solidarity with the protesters preventing ICE gestapo thugs from dragging away their neighbours. We can always benefit from a reminder that ordinary people have the power to resist

I present the FSA - Fascist States of America👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 I never thought during my lifetime I’d witness the USA rapidly descend from World leader into a Fascist Police State With heavily armed, masked paramilitary Gestapo type groups snatching & terrorising citizens causing the people to make a stand❗️ 🤦🏼‍♂️

This! 👇

This is a crucial read.

"... Time to fry....."

Funnily enough, it's not the waste of money that is most bothering me most about the sending of tanks to the capital......

NEW: Unbelievable. A seemingly endless line of tanks & other military vehicles arrive in DC ahead of next week's parade. They departed Texas 5 days ago. What a colossal waste of time, money & military resources. All for a President who has shown zero respect for service personnel. (🎥 DW)

The conditions that have led to what’s happening in the US today exist in democracies around the world. They are an inevitable outcome of our collective failure to adapt to fundamental changes in the information ecosystem on which our democracies were originally built.

For those of us who’ve spend the last 6 months discussing how the Trump would use deportations to create chaos is the Blue states and then use that chaos as an excuse to declare a national emergency and seize total power, things are right on schedule.

In just 130 days, Elon... -Secured even more contracts -Derailed at least 40 fed investigations of his corporations -Gutted agencies that regulate his business -Installed loyalists throughout the government Elon has fallen out with Trump, but he got exactly what he wanted.

Here's Trump looking at a graph they gave him, reciting what he sees, but unaware that he's looking at it upside down.

😂😂😂

The Russia Report was released, but heavily redacted. It won’t be released in unredacted form. More importantly - it’s now obsolete & too narrow in scope for the current threat environment. What we need now is a comprehensive review of all foreign interference in UK democracy.

Moskowitz: "Nothing has been made more efficient. Here are the wins for congressional Rs. You ready? They're gonna do a $9b recession bill. They're gonna get rid of Elmo, which the American people were clamoring for, but they're gonna add $2.4t for the debt. And then they want us to cheer for them."

President Trump has granted clemency to 16 corrupt politicians—so far. It’s all part of a sweeping effort to decriminalize political corruption. Here's what you should know... 🧵

Second day in a row of Connecticut making impoundment news during hearings in D.C. #nutmegsky #alwaysalocalangle

Does that include the public in South West Norfolk seat who overturned Liz Truss's majority of over than 26,000 and voted her out?

“[S]teps from Harvard’s campus, Bannon took credit for Trump’s fusillade of orders restricting federal funding to universities *** ‘Once you cut the money off,…that’s a bitch slap, right?’ he said.” Event panelist Amy Wax said “it’s important to have a European majority.” 2/11/25 (Link post 2) 1/

🚨 In Ukraine's most consequential attack on Russia's strategic bomber fleet, SBU's secret operation Spiderweb is estimated to have dealt over $7 billion in damage to over 40 Tu-95, Tu-23, and A-50 aircraft.

Narrator : "that particular ship had sailed a while back" 🚢🥬

This guy has murdered hundreds of thousands of people this year, most of them children.

Much like his SpaceX rockets, Elon Musk leaves Washington DC with a bunch of misplaced hype, failures, and a trail of debris.
