🔥🔥🔥🔥 ... watch the end.

"Putting out a fire you purposely start – doesn't make you a firefighter – it makes you an arsonist with a hose." Jimmy Kimmel

Fascism coming to an America near you.

Double.

Our institutions are not made for this moment, and those in establishment - from the media to business to politics - aren't built for this fight. If you're counting on them to lead us, then we are already doomed. The leaders will emerge from the ground and the grassroots.

He was also a committed slaveowner who brutalized the human beings he owned. He didn’t fight for honor.

You need all hands on deck, full-scale resistance. Every institution, every organization, every sector needs to speak out and resist Trump's fascist regime. Each act of resistance causes a crack in the regime, slows down the machine, and eventually...with time...they will collapse.

I gotta say, Gavin Newsom is meeting this extraordinary moment like a total f’ng badass. Do not obey in advance. Communicate often. Remain calm. Hold the line. Call them on their bullshit. Bring the facts. And push the fuck back. This is the way.

One thing Newsom has shown is key to effectively deal with Trump & the MAGA propaganda machine: You must respond immediately & call out the lies. You can’t wait until hours/days later, then answer in a press conference, statement, scripted speech. All Dems should learn from it.

I’ve noticed this myself 👇

Dear USA Deploying troops against civilians will not go well. Yours Great Britain and Northern Ireland

When the National Guard killed 4 protesters at Kent State in 1970, we didn't have Social Media. This is a whole new ball of wax.

Trump's gestappo is going to kill an unarmed person on camera. It's inevitable.

This

Whenever police lawlessness is caught on camera: think about how much isn't being caught on camera.

It’s also 5 years ago dumbass.

Thoughts and prayers for the MAGA warriors who are being personally traumatized by this scene

BREAKING: Netanyahu and the IDF have seized the Gaza Freedom Flotilla Madleen and captured all 12 crew members, including Greta Thunberg, committing a war crime in plain sight. Israel must go.

on this day in 1949 Nineteen Eighty-four, by English writer George Orwell is first published, "a warning against totalitarianism." “War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength.” “If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face—for ever.”

The deployment of federalized National Guard troops to California, without consent from local or state officials, is deeply troubling. These are tactics seen in authoritarian regimes, not in America. We want to be clear, the military should not be used to police civilians.

There's only one way to fix the political disease in the USA. KILL "Citizens United" ruling with legislation outlawing ALL private political donations in the USA. END all paid political lobbying. Limited PUBLIC funding ONLY of all elected offices. Brief election campaigns. STRICT term limits.

If what was happening in LA was such a “national emergency”, why was the “president” in NJ smiling for the cameras at a UFC fight?

Los Angeles knows what a riot looks like. We have quite a bit of experience in that department, one of which I went through back in 1992. THIS IS NOT THAT. Not even close.

Someone explain to me why neither CNN nor MSNBC is covering this wall-to-wall right now? Someone explain to me why none of the local channels in LA are covering this wall-to-wall right now? And the people remain uninformed. I bet the overwhelming majority of people in LA have no idea this is going.

Hold up a sec: The best "alternative" to SpaceX is NASA itself--you know, those guys who put people on the Moon?

They’re ramping up the violence and it’s only a matter of time before they kill a bystander.

Dont F with California. Most populous state in the country and the world's 5th largest economy. MAGA is in for a surprise.

There is no way he won all 7 swing states.

Reminder...

I was literally dumbfounded when he won reelection. I realized that it wasn't just stupidity, but also racism, hate and misogyny. There is a portion of this country who will never vote for a woman, no matter how qualified she is.

I'd generally prefer a Senate Minority Leader who's not 100 years old and who might have more intestinal fortitude than a sparrow who just kerranged off a windshield but that's just me

Dear Democrats in the Senate, Please get ready amendments ready for reconciliation bill that will at least: - defund Starlink - defund all maters related Space X - defund DOGE (calling it a Deep State) And that's just the start. There can be lot lot more. Thanks.

Citizens United is among the worst decisions in Supreme Court history. It's allowed billionaires to completely take over our politics and destroy our democracy. There are days when we are reminded just how pernicious that ruling was. Today is one of those days.

Wow

Banana Republicans

Just a thought… Being a cabinet secretary is not on-the-job training kind of position. Since you have people‘s well-being and in many cases lives in your hands, you should know what you’re doing on Day One.

It’s called taxing the rich, buddy.

Every place you see steel and aluminum is something that will go up in price from Trump’s new tariffs. Like soup cans.

HAWLEY: Let's see the Trump chart. You don't think it's a little bit anomalous that Trump has so many more nationwide injunctions against him? KATE SHAW: A very plausible explanation you have to consider is that he's engaged in much more lawless activity than other presidents
