No American can afford to ignore the systematic erosion of what it means to be American. We are way past political and ideological disagreements. What’s at stake is our adherence to the Constitution and rule of law. What safeguards all of our rights. Without it, we cease to be America.

It doesn’t matter if you’re Republican, Democrat or Independent. It doesn’t matter if you think the signal chat room debacle is a big deal or not. This is about whether you’re ok with them blatantly lying to you, lying under oath to Congress, and vilifying anyone who sets the record straight.

One of my companies informed me they cancelled a $2m conference in Florida. Why ? They didn’t feel they could pass on the incremental cost of tariffs. So they are cutting expenses. That’s a city that lost a ton of tourism revenue. The cost of tariffs isn’t just the cost of the tariff

There’s been a kind of…fashion of late to view anti-Trump libs as lame and cringe and just annoying, aesthetically. I remember this exact same aesthetic judgment in the run-up to the Iraq war. The earnest libs were right then and they’re right now.

So if Trump is not responsible for victims of natural disasters or seniors on Medicaid or little kid figure skaters on planes or social workers and research scientists on federal funding, then who the fuck is Trump responsible for? Oh that’s right I forgot. Billionaires.

Concentration camps preceded extermination camps by several years. They began in Germany just as administratively, just as innocuously, as this. It's important to understand the historical track we are on.

I am begging the national media to start taking this seriously. Stop buying the claims that the framing of "temporary" or "pause." They are altering the review processes of federally funded scientific research from merit-based peer review processes to political screening by ideologues.

Decades of confirmation hearings where women testify to abuse and sexual violence, only for the men in question to rise to higher positions of power, is a perfect encapsulation of why more victims don’t come forward.

They are as cruel as they seem. They are as dishonest as they seem. They are as unethical as they seem. People tricked or deluded into believing they aren’t as cruel, dishonest, and unethical as they seem, are marks. Stay prepared for them to keep being who they are.

Trump has deployed active military to help round up migrants and put them into detention camps. The military forced us out of our homes at gunpoint in 1942 because we were considered possibly disloyal Americans. They sent us to internment camps for four years. History is repeating. Pay attention.

Gotta warn all the men who voted for Trump that supporting a man who is actively disenfranchising everyone but men, again, because you felt culture didn’t respect men enough will have the opposite of the desired effect on your cultural status. Forever.

After this election I no longer feel safe living anywhere in the US but a blue state. And I find that incredibly heartbreaking. That was part of what was special about us, that we were one united union, and you were “in America” wherever you went. That doesn’t feel true anymore.

Trump's new economic team is worth an average $500 MILLION apiece. I hate to break it to you, but they're not worried about the price of gas, groceries, and rent. They're already focused on giving more tax breaks to Elon Musk, Kroger, ExxonMobil, Meta, Jeff Bezos, and Amazon.

AOC: I don’t care what Elon Musk is doing behind the presidential seal, but in this country we hate Nazis. Kind of like a foundational defining thing. Two of the foundational things about American history is that we beat the confederates and we beat the Nazis.

If history is any indicator of the present then the pressure good people should be applying is on the non-far right politicians & agencies. They are the ones who will kow-tow & trade away rights & declare how wonderful it is that they saved some, whilst ignoring the suffering of the ones they lost.
