From the get go of the second Trump administration, it was clear that the president would try to pass a bunch of executive orders without any clear indication that he, or his trusted advisors, actually knew if it was legal. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/wha...

Hey soon-to-be #veterans! Let's form a well-regulated militia and save the world from fascism again!? Any interest? I would call it the "Red Army" but we can also vote on what to call it.

I'm actually not a fan of Janet Mills's administration (too right wing for me) but she is one of the only Democrats doing the ABSOLUTE BARE MINIMUM to stand up to *actual fascism* so she is worth celebrating for that.

Prediction: the Nаzi salute will become common within 2 years. RWers will half-аss it for plausible deniability, memeify the backlash, then start fully doing it "as a joke" "to troll the libs" "for being hysterical enough to think we were doing it in the first place"

The American people are definitely worth saving. The government... we can do better than this system that was built specifically for slave-owning oligarchs and has no institutional ability or incentive to stop the backslide into feudalism.

Joyce Carol Oates retweeting a bunch of blue MAGA people claiming the election was stolen in 24 is a chilling showing of what the Dems are going to do in the next few years, which is double down on the same failed campaign that appeals to no one and come up with increasingly bad excuses for it

I'm confused about this. Why resign? Why not continue pressing charges and ignoring illegal orders? Resigning is the same result as just dropping charges. Stop resigning and start putting sand in the gears.

This is Afghanistan under the USSR. The world was objectively better with the USSR in it.

I'm not a huge sports fan, so I don't know which team is which, but one of the dogs just scored a touchdown in the #puppy bowl and he is a very good boy

You have to ask - why is this unappointed yoohoo and his incel brigade getting access to anything at all? Why aren't administrators telling them to leave?

If this is a repeat of Germany 1930, we can't be polite or expect the law to protect anybody

they are mostly targeting black employees so this is quite literally just a repeat of woodrow wilson’s segregationist purge of the federal government
