Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position. You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

Staggering hypocritical cheek that Putin or insurrectionist Trump should demand Ukraine holds an election having created impossible conditions for one in Ukraine. “In contrast with Ukraine, elections have been routinely rigged in Russia, “

Gift link. A small unelected, secretive crew now has free access to sensitive private data of everyone. And Musk is already publicly targeting family members of judges who rule against the administration. If this isn’t ringing alarm bells, I don’t know what would. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/o...

This is the president of the USA, or as he’s otherwise known in Russian since he was recruited as agent “Krasnov”. This is not a statesman. This is an entitled school yard bully, whose dad is the richest man in the world. Jesus America. What have you done to the whole world.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Donald Trump promised to let Elon Musk self-police his conflicts of interest. The result? Those investigating his companies have been fired. Cases against his companies have been dismissed. The corrupt self-dealing is staggering.

"We [the Executive Branch] *are* the federal law" is a dark horse candidate for most Hitlerian Trump quote from 2025. Surprised this did not get even more media coverage and provoke even more outrage. The literal, actual truth, of course, is that the federal government has three co-equal branches.

This is real. And I have never seen the competence, morals, standards and communication strategy of any government collapse so fast.

Please everyone repost and share on as many channels as you can. Forward to as many people as you know.

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

It’s called Gleichschaltung. And German history shows us where it can end. Again: we have the knowledge; we have the right words. That the US could still get to this point is such a terrible failure.

Trump is a KGB asset. America is now under Russian occupation.

But eventually #InviteTheGreens pressure got us into the debates www.theguardian.com/politics/vid...

Aside from the whole KGB aspect, what the fuck is a 19 yr old doing here ? He should be in college.

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

Side note. There are eight members of the joint chiefs. the chair is black. the CNO (navy) is a woman. the other six are white guys. chair and the cno got fired tonight.

Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story. Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver. This is what "merit" means to them. apnews.com/article/trum...

The American right was always at real risk of turning into a personality cult, but you'd think they could've mustered the pride and self-respect to pick a less stupid personality.

Trump just ordered the DOJ to eliminate the police misconduct database. Imagine losing your child to police brutality &finding out the officer had a violent history that wasn't tracked. That’s what happened to Eric Garners family. The officer who killed him had many complaints before that fatal day.

For the first time in years we have a government putting workers rights front and center in new laws. Forcing Employers to look after their staff. Guess what. Employers are not happy.

Ditto ‘Boris’ Johnson. There is no other explanation for his installing a Russian in the HoL. Nor his wild Russian party attendance, without security. The enemies within.

The author reminds us of “the “smoky room experiment”. In this study, when a person is alone in a room that begins to fill with smoke, three-quarters raise the alarm within minutes. Yet, when surrounded by others who remain passive, only 10% take action. This is the “bystander effect”,

The answer: “In the post-war era, mass council housebuilding brought about good, low-cost housing, largely insulated from volatile market conditions. While it cannot solve the crisis on its own, a council housing revolution could bring about clear and wide-ranging benefits.”
