"Make no mistake: This horrifying escalation of violence is straight out of an authoritarian playbook"

So - wasn't it Trump that said under his presidency we wouldn't become embroiled in international conflicts, and that he'd bring "peace to the middle east"? So - riddle me this, why is it that Israel has declared war on Iran?

Ya'll heard it here folks! Trump has been ordered to return control of the California National Guard to the Governor and this order will take effect Friday morning. I wonder if Trump is tired of winning yet?

I was semi-hopeful that the DNC would pull their shit together after how badly they lost in 2024. David Hogg is an asset to them, but they are more focused on their infighting, and having a dick-swinging competition instead of setting the party up for an effective and sweeping win in the midterms.

1st: Terry Moran no matter if you choose to begin your own platform - or go with Meidas...keep speaking truth to power and continue being a good journalist. 2nd: Fuck you Disney/ABC, your are cowards! You bend the knee. We all see you in your blatant capitulation.

Remember you swore an oath! Not to a man, but to the constitution. "I was just following orders" isn't going to fly when your infront of a war crimes tribunal. substack.com/@1stcavalryg...

Ahhh yes - blame the victim you shot in the head because in your weird f**ked up mind it's her fault - that YOU - shot her in the head.

Got official confirmation that ICE has begun conducting raids in Georgia. They hit Statesboro, Augusta, and Savannah thus far. Y'all please stay safe - if you are planning on protesting stay peaceful, don't feed into the Regimes narrative. Trump wants Military presence in every state.

Disney and ABC don't get to "pretend" to be on the side of "good" anymore - simply because they didn't roll back their DEI programs and produce rainbow Mickey ears for their theme parks. They capitulated to the Trump regime and suspended a reporter for speaking the truth about Miller and Trump.

Also want to point out - if they start investigating every single person who hates Trump there's a long fucking list. Unless they can prove physical and explicit harm is intended and will likely be inflicted they are just trying to intimidate you.

I mean - is anyone really that surprised a group of white, cishet, conservative, Christian men (who live off of taxpayer-subsidized federal health plans) decided poor people don't deserve even the basic bottom-of-the-barrel, bare minimum healthcare our country can offer?

If you live in an area that will begin housing and assisting White South Africans - spit in their general direction if they walk by you in public. Refuse them service in your place of business. Picket the sidewalks in front of their dwellings. Make their lives unbearable. FULL STOP!

ICE Agents, deputized or not - wouldn't be hiding their faces if they were performing legal arrests. If they were doing their job and following the law, they wouldn't need to wear masks. PERIOD, FULL STOP!

I mean I wouldn't want to have to smell Trumps adult diapers constantly, let alone put up with his dementia driven tirades. But no no - I'm sure their sex life is fantastic.

Listen - while the new popes political opinions on Trump and Vance may be "Good" for the overall movement against authoritarianism, some people are still going to lose. But hey, who gives a damn how the LGBTQ+ people fare, as long as the straight cis liberal folks get to keep their social security?

Not that anyone is going to care or share this. But here you go! Since everyone is so obsessed with the new "progressive" pope. Can't wait to see what bullshit he has to say in a few months. www.thepinknews.com/2025/05/08/p...

This is getting old. 🤨 The new pope is fucking anti-LGBTQ. FULL STOP! He is a self declared, "middle of the road, moderate". He is not some pillar of progressive ideals. He is not some hero to be propped up or made the face of a movement. The fact that so many are falling for this is ridiculous.

You know what Pope Leo is NOT? He is not pro love! Pope Leo has told Vance that love is not selective. That we should love our neighbor, the foreigner, the refugee! But he's really just a hypocrite when it comes to loving the LGBTQ community or adopted children. But hey, he's so progressive, right?

Correction: The new pope is anti-LGBTQ and anti-adoption. Both of these are cornerstone beliefs of many Catholics and Christians that use "Jesus" or the "Bible" to tout hate. Nowhere in the Bible or in any other text has it ever been found or suggested that Jesus was anti-LGBTQ or anti-adoption.

THIS!!! ALL DAY!!! PERIOD!!! As a former Catholic, I approve of this message!

Alt-Right Wing and extremist Catholics and Christians alike will never be collectively satisfied. They can't even be happy thay Pope Leo XIV is anti-LGBTQ, politically moderate, and anti-adoption. Like - just because he doesn't like Trump or Vance does not mean he isn't still playing in their yard.

Cool cool - so when this new "MODERATE" pope comes out and says some sideways shit about the LGBTQ community, adoption, or abortion I'll be sipping on my beer laughing my ass off while ya'll lose your collective fucking shit cuz you've spent literally an entire day touting how "progressive" he is.

Mmm- Prevost is a stretch. He's a "moderate." It's going to get really exhausting watching praise how "Great" the new pope is over the next few weeks. When he comes out and says some sideways shit about the LGBTQ community, adoption, or abortion. Everyone will lose their collective fucking minds.

FYI, just because he doesn't support the Trump administration and is a staunch advocate against the illegal deportation efforts in the U.S. DOES NOT mean he is a good person. It means he's good playing politics. Use some critical thinking and analyze things. Be ready for an on again off again pope.

Stop touting him as progressive, please! He claims to be "moderate." We all know "moderate" is code for conservative. He has expressed anti-LGBTQ sentiment in the past and has said he does not tolerate same sex marriage, nor does he tolerate unconventional family structures with adopted children.

Pope LEO XIV has expressed anti-LGBTQ stances in the past. I also don't trust anyone who declares themselves a political "moderate." That's just code for conservative bootlicker. We can only hope his heart and mind have shifted in a direction of love rather than hate. But I won't hold my breath.

It's quite telling when two of our nations appointed leaders are openly defending fascist political organizations and STILL attempting to interfere in international electoral proceedings.

Good! NOW it's time for other nations to classify the MAGA movement, as an international terrorist organization, and a threat to international security. They need to ban those members or those holding values associated with MAGA from entering their borders or running for office. PERIOD!

Fact: Nancy Mace thinks people are stupid enough to fall for this dumb echo chamber bullshit. Fact: If Nancy Mace had a medical emergency in a restaurant; Democrat or Republican, no one would call for help. Simply because she is so fucking annoying we would all rather she just stop breathing.

Trump supporters and MAGAts don't deserve a chance to redeem themselves, PERIOD. They have proven they would pick racism, bigotry, and incompetence over quality. They had a second chance in 2018, they still voted for him! They had a third chance in 2024, they still voted for him! Fuck that shit!

Donald Trump says he's "Having more fun" than his first time around. Yes Donald, I'm sure you are you fucking fascist piece of shit! I hope when this is all over, your lifeless carcass is lowered into an unmarked grave, and you are forgotten and your legacy lost to the annals of history.

There plan to "Flood the Zone", looks more like dismantling the government, burning the constitution, destroying our judicial system, consolidating power, banning and criminalizing all political/dissent. Its a fucking bloodless coup, and we are all standing by watching it happen. FUCK THIS!

"The Thought Police would get him just the same. He had committed—would still have committed, even if he had never set pen to paper—the essential crime that contained all others in itself. Thoughtcrime, they called it. Thoughtcrime was not a thing that could be concealed forever." - George Orwell
