Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

This will go down as the Friday Night Massacre of the Military. First the Chairman of the JCS and now Adm. Franchetti, the first woman to become a member of the JCS. Next up the Air Force’s No. 2 officer & the top JAGs for each service. Martial law is coming. breakingdefense.com/2025/02/trum...

Truth! "This is the culmination of what oligarchy is all about and what oligarchy seeks to do. It’s the fusion of and the capture by the billionaire class of our democracy. But it’s very important to understand that it is not sustainable." - AOC

If you were REALLY looking for corruption, you wouldn't be firing independent inspector generals and using your DOJ to force a corruption case against a Democratic Mayor in NYC to be dismissed.

Everyone is doing a great job fighting these oligarchs. Elon’s stock is dropping and a quarter of US shoppers have dumped favorite stores over politics. You won’t hear about it in the media much just like we’re not hearing about all the protesting going on. But the resistance is growing. ♻️

"Yet, there is hope. Unlike during WW2, Europe is no longer a fractured, war-weary continent waiting for superpowers to dictate its fate. Today, it is a wealthy, integrated, and militarily capable bloc. While Trump abandons Ukraine and Europe, the rest of the Western world can still act." 👇

My thoughts on the Russian-American talks on Ukraine, without Ukraine. The simplest interpretation of the available facts is that the Americans are using Russian violence to try to exploit Ukraine. snyder.substack.com/p/peace-or-p...
