When you look at the list of institutions they want to defund: libraries, museums, the Smithsonian, public schools, PBS, NPR, archives, you can clearly see that the real threat to an authoritarian regime is an informed and educated public

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House. We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication. They own what happens next.

Hundreds of asylum seekers from around the globe are being trapped by the US in a Panama hotel where they'll eventually be sent to a camp in the jungle. One Chinese man said “I thought: America is a free country with respect for human rights. I had no idea it was like a dictatorship.”

When the Nazis took power and gutted the Weimar era civil service in government, they also claimed the need to increase efficiency and to ensure loyalty to the nazi party. They did it through the law for the restoration of the professional civil service. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_for...

Fanta was created so coke could sell soda in nazi Germany around a trade embargo. IBM sold the machines that were used to track and tabulate holocaust victims. Henry Ford inspired Hitler. Big business has always collaborated with fascism. Today's businesses are bastards who are no different.

When shit hit the fan, the Democrats aligned with the GOP to spread lies, facilitate a genocide, steal billions, censor social media, and sanction the ICC. If you people can't find me real leaders that I can trust, then goddamn you for making me the first line of offense against genuine psychopaths.

“8 Critical Jimmy Carter Quotes You Won’t See in Most Mainstream Media Obits” From me, on how the late ex-president slammed US foreign policy, backed Bernie Sanders, and condemned Israeli ‘apartheid’.

In 2006, President Jimmy Carter published a NYT bestseller entitled “Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid.” In 2017, he called the lack of universal healthcare a “national scandal.” Some of those who are honoring him with words today would smear him if he were a candidate today.

I need centrists to understand that in the absence of Trump supporters on Bluesky, the "MAGA" here is basically you, so dial back your confidence and think before you type. The information gap between you and the progressives, plus your wanton disregard for humanity, is just too big to ignore.

To be honest, the president shouldn't have a pardon power to begin with, as it breeds corruption. But that - like so many other problematic issues in modern America (gun violence! the electoral college! supreme court lifetime appointments!) - requires amending the Constitution.

Two groups who can stfu re Hunter: 1. GOP who had zero prob with Trump pardoning Kushner, Bannon, D’Souza etc 2. Liberal pols and pundits who rushed to express their moral outrage over this but didn’t have a goddamn word to say about Biden facilitating a genocide for more than a year.

President Biden still has 6 weeks to stand against genocide. President Biden still has 6 weeks to pardon those in federal custody on non-violent drug offenses. President Biden still has 6 weeks to cancel all student debt. President Biden still has 6 weeks.

US fascism and plutocratic rule was here looooong before Trump entered politics. The left has been warning everyone for decades, but now that shit is hitting the fan, people are finally waking up. It only took the rise of MAGA, the collapse of Twitter, a liberal-backed genocide, and a 2nd Trump win.
