He nails it.

A former Soviet intelligence officer alleges Trump was recruited by the KGB in 1987 and given the codename “Krasnov.” Alnur Mussayev served in the 6th Directorate, responsible for counter-intelligence support in the economy. One key objective was “recruiting businessmen from capitalist countries.”

Civil disobedience is often necessary. Thank you Chris Kluwe.#civil disobedience

KGB groomed Trump as an asset for 40 years, former Russian spy says New book interviewing Yuri Shvets and many other sources alleges Moscow rescued Trump's businesses with laundered funds, directly tying this to ex-president's affinity for Putin www.timesofisrael.com/kgb-groomed-...

Happy Friday! This is the resistance. Cause some Good Trouble today!

When I see Steve Bannon doing a Nazi salute to cheers it means only one thing: 420,000 U.S. troops died defending our country from Nazi assholes and 77 million people voted for them to be in power. MAGA betrayed our country voting for this nightmare.

Steve Bannon was applauded at CPAC after he gave a Nazi salute followed by an “amen.” Elon gave one too. Believe your own eyes & ears. Conservatives have aligned themselves with the ideology that used gas chambers to murder millions.

“Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!”

John Major: Trump’s US isolationism threatens global democracy

A morning word salad for a nutritious start to your day!

All my life I have studied democratization and autocratization. My 1st field trip was to newly democratic Argentina. I then added autocracies to my portfolio: Cuba, Ven, etc. I think I can recognize the stages of transition to authoritarianism. Here are the boxes Trump has already checked off.

A picture is worth a thousand words.

ACTIVISM ALERT! There will be protests in every state capital (and other areas) this Monday, Presidents' Day, starting around noon. PLEASE attend if you can. www.newsweek.com/50-states-an...

Join Operation Take Back Our Flag 🇺🇸

JD Vance, vice president of a regime currently overthrowing its own democracy, lectures Europe on the "retreat" from "some of its most fundamental values". He cites the Romanian Constitutional Court annulling its recent presidential election. He doesn't mention this was because Russia interfered.

Wouldn’t be surprised if years from now we come to realization that Trump is a Manchurian Candidate programmed by Putin to destroy Western Democracy

Since MSM won't report this, here's what Democrats did today.

How much Elon Musk makes from the government a day: $8 million. How much a senior on Social Security gets a day: $65 Guess which budget Musk and Trump want to cut?

Rep. Mark Pocan has introduced the ELON MUSK act which would ban "special" government employees like Musk from having federal contracts. The full title of the bill is the Eliminate Looting of Our Nation by Mitigating Unethical State Kleptocracy Act.

To America’s 2.3 million federal employees: Don’t accept a buyout. Neither Musk nor even Trump has the legal authority to make such an offer. And even if they did, would you trust them to follow through on it? Sincerely, Robert Reich Former U.S.Secretary of Labor

Absolutely. Grind it to a halt.

Folks, this is a five alarm fire. Congress must stop Trump and Elon's coup. Call your rep now (202) 224-3121 This isn't just a battle for checks and balances. It's a battle between democracy and dictatorship.

The men carrying out Musk's coup are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran. Make them famous. And, eventually, when possible, arrest them and charge them with multiple felonies. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

Elon Musk is not a Federal employee or a political appointee. DOGE is not a real department. None of their activities are legal. This is a coup. The Republicans in Congress are willing participants in it. At what point do Democrats in DC get that and start acting like it? It’s not the price of eggs!

“We must sound the alarm on why Elon Musk, a private citizen, wields such access to all our critical data. This is yet another wake-up call that Trump and Musk are rapidly dismantling U.S. institutions—a step ever closer to authoritarian control.” trumptyrannytracker.substack.com/p/trump-tyra...

This is a national emergency:

The United States is under attack by fascist domestic terrorists disguised as government.
