Putin is achieving the desired coup via Muskrat. Trump is the base attractant and media distractant. Neither needs to be truthful or likable to achieve Putin's goal. Whatever you'd like to do to resist fascism, do it now. Don't assume that future "elections" will save you.

🗣️ @aoc.bsky.social out fighting for the people & federal workers: “Every day our job is to wake up and say ‘what can I do today?’ — There is no act too small. Every action matters.” 🇺🇸

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

Thank you @blueskye2025.bsky.social

🤯🙌🏼 Phenomenal GA Constituent! Pls share! "Tyranny is rising in the White House. A man has declared himself our king. The people would like to know what you, Congressman, are going to do to rein in the megalomaniac in the WH." Americans need to wake up & inject this indignation into their veins!

Brava!

Thank you for reminding us that we have elected a few people with laudable courage and integrity, Prof. Snyder.

Will their voters ever wake up to the fact that the GOP isn’t out to help them?

Republicans want to bleed you of every buck

This story can't be repeated enough. The GOP is lined up behind the guy who is so incompetent that his quasi-gov't agency did this. They're confirming his highly questionable nominees & hurting the American people. And "accidentally"? It was stupidity, not accident. www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

Do you know what Dems did today? It may not be everything we want them to, but Dems are fighting for us. They get very little media attention but Dems do indeed fight for us. Meanwhile, Republicans are the party of fascism/tyranny. Pay attention to what Dems are doing so you can tell your friends.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

I’m in! If you need to purchase anything, please choose only small local businesses.

NEW: Early results from a special election in Seattle show that voters strongly passed a new tax on big business that would raise $53 million/year for publicly owned housing. This is a huge win in breaking the grip of private landlords. @rebeccaburns.bsky.social in @inthesetimesmag.bsky.social:

Project 2025 was unpopular because of things like the plan for Trump to shut down the CFPB, which helps you get your money back if a bank cheats you.

We only know this man is in Gitmo because Noem tweeted a propaganda photo that included him and his sister saw it. He has no criminal record. He entered the US in January and immediately made an appointment with CBP to claim asylum. They sent him to a concentration camp bc of his basketball tattoo.

Freeland: Our retaliation is going to be a lot more surgical than that. We are going to go after American stakeholders who matter to The White House. I have proposed a 100% tariff on all Teslas. I am calling on all the countries that are affected by this tariff to join us

🇱🇹🇱🇻🇪🇪 Tomorrow, Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia will permanently disconnect from Russia’s energy system, says EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas. "Russia can no longer use energy as a tool of blackmail," she added.

Operation ICE Ride-Along isn’t going as planned. 🔥 Fox News tagged along with ICE, hoping for an exclusive look at “dangerous criminals.” Instead, they got a whole lot of nothing. No threats, no big arrests—just a community that wasn’t having it. The narrative is falling apart.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.
