We could have had Kamala Harris. Instead, we have the most immature, petulant, stupid, needy, incompetent dipshit to ever enter American politics. What a tragically stupid country we are.

In not-entirely-surprising news. President Musk just declared that sharing the names of his henchmen who ABSOUTELY just committed several federal crimes on his behalf is somehow illegal.

It is a coup. Let's stop pretending otherwise. People who are not federal employees without appropriate security clearance or background checks are accessing highly secure//confidential resources and personal data while locking out actual employee access. COUP. #StopFascism #TheRevolutionHasBegun

Lesson Four on Fighting Tyranny: Take Responsibility for the Face of the World The symbols of today enable the reality of tomorrow. Notice the swastikas and the other signs of hate. Do not look away, and do not get used to them. Remove them yourself and set an example for others to do so.

This is who we KNOW said it. AND he warned us all that w/o constant vigilance the hand entrusted w/power becomes the enemy of the people. That w/o continual oversight the powerful office of democracy itself is destined to become a despot. He warned us all 173 years ago. NOW we pay attention.

Lesson three on Fighting Tyranny: Beware the One-Party State. "The parties that remade states and suppressed rivals were not omnipotent from the start. They exploited a historic moment to make political life impossible for their opponents." (cont'd)

Lesson two on Fighting Tyranny: Defend Institutions "Institutions do not protect themselves. They fall one after the other unless each is defended from the beginning. So choose an institution you care about - a court, a newspaper, a law, a labor union - and take its side."

Please remember that this administration is not “the government.” They are not governing. The government is not the bad guy. Trump and the oligarchs are the bad guys. They are dismantling “the government.”

do you enjoy knowing that when you deposit money in a US bank, you won't lose that money? nice, right? it's because bank deposits are insured by FDIC. i don't know what FDIC ever did to these people, but apparently it too is now on their blow-it-up list: www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Warning about risks to undocumented families via orange raisin attempting to weaponize the US Postal Service. Shared anonymously so I cannot confirm or vet it - but it sounds plausible enough. Warn those who could be impacted. Federal agencies told to inform. 😡 #StopFacism #TheRevolutionHasBegun

Largest tuberculosis outbreak in U.S. history is currently happening in Kansas. (!!) Too bad we don’t have robust federal health agencies allowed to warn anyone/everyone about it. 🤦🏻‍♀️ #StopFascism #TheRevolutionHasBegun www.cjonline.com/story/news/p...
