Writing the technological history of how America really got to space, while trying to keep my sanity in this fascist takeover of what used to be called the United States of America. Officially a Twitter refugee.

A Grok rendering of the new triad. This is the new world order, and with only one goal. A complete take over of the Western Hemisphere.

Right wing influencer, Tristan Tate, tweeting for America to ally with Russia and China. X is a full on Kremlin propaganda machine, just as Musk wants. Project Russia in the works, and the real enemies within.

“Tyranny requires your fear and your silence and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.” — Governor Jay Pritzker Get ready, everyone. We’re getting our battle cries. @govpritzker.illinois.gov

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

Proud to stand with the LGBTQ+ community as an ally in the fight.

Reminder that DeJoy's billionaire family are the largest shareholders of FedEx. He spent his entire term trying to destroy the USPS to increase market capacity for FedEx & to make the US govt reliant on FedEx instead of USPS. That's what the headline should be. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Trump is following the example of Mussolini. Trump plans to de-corporatize the US Postal Service & integrate it into the Dept of Commerce. This is going to affect voting by mail & all the medications that seniors get through the mail. Just for starters. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Look who got arrested again at the US Capitol yesterday. I could be making a small fortune placing bets on all these pardoned thugs.

Musk's Tesla leads the automobile industry in the number of worker deaths. Just wait for the death count that Musk's government slashing and takeover is going to ignite. Death and cruelty is the Republican agenda. www.chron.com/culture/arti...

Don't get too concerned. It's all downhill from here.

Thank you @spiegel.de For printing the truth 👏👏

We've got Vance on menstrual patrol -- and now Paxton demanding that the NCAA closely inspect the genitalia of all prospective athletes before permitting them to compete. Guarantee Paxton wants to participate in the process. Perverts & deviants, all of them. 19thnews.org/2025/02/texa...

$15 for a carton of eggs. In the meantime, Trump golfed 4 days in a row this week.

This fantastic piece by Stewart Patrick is an excellent summary of the wrecking ball that Trump is taking to the entire international order crafted by Dem & Repub presidents over 80 yrs. Who does this benefit? The Kremlin, for certain. No one else. carnegieendowment.org/emissary/202...

While US media continues their perverse adulation of Trump... The cover of Spiegel: "Betrayed—first Zelensky, then us. The US sells out its allies." Europe knows Trump is Putin's asset and a treasonous traitor.

In the Kremlin, Putin announces that "our man" Trump is delivering to him Ukraine on a silver platter. Trump is an absolute traitor, and Republicans know it.

Ukrainian intelligence reports Putin is going to proclaim Russia's victory over Ukraine & NATO on Monday Putin wants to promote desperation among Ukrainians Wants them to feel betrayed by the Americans That they've been sold out & their only hope is to accept Russia's yoke shorturl.at/Ep8lR

Putin has ordered his cabinet to prepare for the return of western companies. More of Trump's art of the traitorous deal. www.ft.com/content/3c2f...

Because the DOJ has concluded that the Shadow President is above the law. The long-running case against Musk’s SpaceX, in which its alleged hiring procedures unlawfully discriminate, will be dropped. www.ft.com/content/c69b...

This is how dictators talk.

that Trumpers think the US Postal *SERVICE* should be a profit-making enterprise exposes the fallacy in their conception of government

The chyron. All she said was "We will follow state and federal law" and Trump asserted that he IS the law.

Florida's new AG, James Uthmeier, is on Laura Ingraham's show announcing a new culture-warring lawsuit against Target for not being sufficiently transphobic

they are telling us they are intentionally burning the economy to the ground, never seen anything like it

when you've (already) lost Larry Kudlow ...

Remembering tonight these very racist rants from the campaign trail that nobody seemed to take seriously at the time. Welp.

TRUMP: You have a man who has let a country that had the more beautiful cities get demolished. The most beautiful domes. FOX: But that's Russia's fault, Mr President T: 1,000 year old domes. Everything is demolished. It's sorta like Gaza F: That's Putin's fault T: I get tired of listening to it

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...

Pay attention to this. Replacing JAGs with loyalists enables whatever orders Trump and Hegseth issue to be interpreted as lawful.

Idiocracy was a documentary

Lutnick: "I'd like to thank you President Trump. It is the greatest honor to work for you, to be with you, to carry your name, your leadership, and your flag throughout the world ... I know him as the smartest, most thoughtful, and most intuitive person I've ever met."

New in PN: AOC shows how to fight back and stand strong "Prominent figures standing up can undermine the climate of fear that MAGA relies on to impose terror. AOC’s work on behalf of her constituents and refusal to be intimidated are models of resistance other Democrats would do well to imitate."

Meta laid off 3,600 employees last week, largely women, Blacks, Hispanics and other minorities. The savings from these firings were paid in huge bonuses to the senior-most management echelon. Of course major US media concluded this is not reportable news. fortune.com/2025/02/21/m...

Saw this coming & it’s no less horrifying. Prison Industrial Complex just tooooo damn profitable for craven people.

Heads up, everyone. I'm going to do a thread tomorrow on the contractors & huge money behind the concentration camps Trump is now building. One which will hold 10,000 internees at Fort Bliss on the Texas-New Mexico border. Yes, this is real and it is coming. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...
