Supported by billionaires like Musk, President Trump has laid the groundwork for the biggest heist in American history—the rapid destruction of Social Security, disguised as “reform.” Because how dare Americans ask the morbidly rich to help support the middle class!

Most absolutely basic, basement-level rule of law has just five (5) votes on the Roberts Court. Do not be comforted by this. It suggests there are 4 votes for fascist dictatorship on the court

We have spent trillions to posture against Russia over the years. Now we have a chance to send them into the ash heap of history by supporting Ukraine. It’s a good deal, unless you want Russia to win, in which case god help you

Facts: Putin is a dictator and murderer. Russia invaded Ukraine. Ukraine is fighting for their lives. America used to stand up against tyrants. This is not who we are as a nation. Disgraceful.

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

The 50501 Movement has planned protests at all 50 state capitols and the U.S. Capitol on Presidents’ Day at noon. While mainstream media isn’t covering it, many YouTubers have stepped up to provide coverage.

The world’s richest person, without any actual authority, is infiltrating entire govt agencies and gaining access to sensitive info. And it's being done in an effort to slash federal spending in the name of "efficiency" so America’s wealthy can get another huge tax cut.

Clearly it was unfair of me to compare the GOP to United Russia for obsequiously forfeiting parliamentary power to a rampaging wannabe dictator and his oligarchs. There were still a few voices of conscience in the Russian Duma!
