The oligarchs cling to MLKā€™s ā€œI Have a Dreamā€ speechā€”because dreams arenā€™t a threat. They hide thisā€”we will have to pay the bill while they keep TAKING and distracting us with HATE for each other so that we wonā€™t notice. They donā€™t want you to know about Martin Luther Kingā€™s ā€œOne Pennyā€ speechā€¦

The inverted flag isnā€™t disrespect ā€” itā€™s a distress signal from naval traditions, used to show grave danger to life or property. With a lawless man set to take power after attempting to overthrow the government, America is in extreme danger. Thatā€™s why Iā€™m posting it today.

Trump who negotiated a backroom deal with the Taliban during his last presidency to place them in power, is making sure Afghans that helped US forces are killed by the Taliban. This group includes family members of active-duty U.S. military personnel and former Afghan soldiers.

Today is a significant day, the start of four years of resistance. Our daily mission from this point forward will be the unwavering support of the people, exposing any attempt to undermine democracy.

The foundation of any resistance movement lies in solidarity, purpose, and unwavering commitment to justice. Transformation begins when collective action overcomes fear and apathy.

H/t George Conway ā€” itā€™s perfect šŸ¤£ from Olivia Julianna:

Today and in the coming days, remember

He pardoned EVERY SINGLE PERSON... I won't hold my breath for people to be outraged.

"All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside." Written right there in the Constitution. The President cannot change that with the stroke of a pen.

Hi, Iā€™m God. I had nothing to do with saving that guyā€™s life or making him president.

This is the cowardice of The New York Times. Legacy media is failing.

CNN reports that the January 6 criminals have been told they are invited to attend inaugural balls tonight. They are going to be released from the D.C. jail momentarily. All are insurrectionists. We are not a democracy anymore, folks. We do not have rule of law.

Helpful!

I love this so much! At the inauguration, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wore a distinctive collar adorned with cowrie shells, which are believed to offer protection from evil in African traditions. This choice mirrors the late Justice Ginsburgā€™s practice of using collars to convey a message.

Why are we ignoring the Fourteenth Amendment-Section 3? #NeverForgetJanuary6th

Garland better release this f'ing report.

Think different in 2025: Find and support businesses that are actually doing the right thing. Money talksā€”spend it where it matters.

x X has ~18m daily USA users. @bsky.app, ~1.5m. Is it worth 20 MINS a day to proactively recruit and bring your friends, neighbors,relatives, businesses, anyone who is or could be a user, to @bsky.app? If Bluesky ends up with more users than the others, you destabilize musk, zuck, trump.

Welcome to Heaven, Jimmy Carter.

Legacy media is telling us that what we see happening isn't really happening.

Perfection.

"One of the great tragedies of mankind is that morality has been hijacked by religion. So now people assume that religion and morality have a necessary connection. But the basis of morality is really very simple and doesn't require religion at all." -- Arthur C. Clarke, born #OTD 1917

"I had a very stern conversation with Nick Fuentes, and he has promised not to pepper spray or push women down the stairs anymore. I believe he's learned his lesson."

Very rugged for 100 grand.

In case you missed it, a Wisconsin judge this week struck down former Gov. Scott Walker's Act 10 law. The move will restore public sector workers' collective bargaining rights. This is a moment of celebration and hope in these troubled times.

Norms are good. Pressure works. We need to protect norms. This feels like a small victory but every victory is in fact a victory. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/03/u...

Two software developers became quietly known in tech circles in the 2000s and were almost the reverse image of each other. Both developed web alternatives. Both developed alternatives to the current government model. The right has read Yarvin and it shows. The left has not read Marsh and it shows.

Jeff Bezos said he's excited to have Trump & wants to help dismantle government regulations. ā€œIā€™m actually very optimistic this time around,ā€ Bezos said of Trump at the DealBook conference. ā€œHe seems to have a lot of energy around reducing regulation. If I can help him do that, Iā€™m gonna help him.ā€

Trump's oligarch cabinet is estimated to be worth a combined $340bn. Trumpā€™s ā€œgovernment by the billionaires for the billionairesā€ goal is to provide huge tax cuts for the super-rich, to be achieved at the cost of slashing services such as education, social security and Medicaid. #spookyconnection

Syrians spent 14 years listening to westerners "explain" why their revolution would fail or cast fear about the "Islamists", while staying absolutely quiet as Assad murdered 500,000 people, uprooted millions to be scattered worldwide, and continued a campaign of mass extermination & rape. #freeSyria

The Syrian rebels have entered Homs and heading towards Damascus. Assad regime troops appear confused and abandoned by their chain of command, in some instances they are reported to have surrendered, attacked each other or defected. Some are still fighting, others are fleeing the country. #freeSyria

go.bsky.app/2n9vJMc I support the #4B movement and all those that do Resist!

Exactly. People should be (and I am pretty sure are) working on this

Iā€™ve spent a lot of time in Toronto. Every single Canadian I talk to I ask about healthcare. Each & every one of them LOVES it even if they have to wait for elective procedures. Know why?! Because itā€™s: ā€¢NOT TIED TO EMPLOYMENT ā€¢FREE ā€¢EXCELLENT SERVICE ā€¢DOES NOT BANKRUPT THEM ā€¢HUMANE

Iā€™m excited for @gregcasar.bsky.socialā€™s leadership at the Progressive Caucus. Heā€™s going to be great.

"The Progressive Caucus should make sure that the Democratic Party holds the center of the country AND stands up against oppression and injustice." (via @sareport.bsky.social)

BREAKING: Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez today vowed to add abortion rights and gay marriage to Spainā€™s constitution so they ā€œcan never be undone.ā€

Two years ago today we were awarded the Congressional Gold Medal for protecting The US Capitol on January 6th 2021. Almost 4 years later the efforts to downplay, whitewash and minimize what happened appear to be succeeding. I won't ever stop standing up to them.
