Vance says Zelensky has never even said “thank you” for all he and trump have done for Ukraine. I wonder how often Putin has said thank you for all he and trump have done for Russia…and it’s a LOT 😳

I can’t believe the empire is going to fall because one rich dude wanted to get out of going to jail and another rich dude wanted to look cool to of a bunch of 19 year olds.

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

"The new Civil Service ‘law’ leaves me, as a front-line veteran, in my post—at least for the time being. But all-around rabble-rousing, misery, fear and trembling. A worker or employee who is not nationally minded can be dismissed in any factory, [and] must be replaced by a nationally minded one..."

pop culture is not overflowing with thoughtful/varied portrayals of masculinity but there is a lot of good stuff and you don’t have to look very hard. AEW wrestlers. Alan Ritchson. Bad Bunny, Sterling K Brown. Rob McElhenney’s entire oeuvre. Every character in the yakuza/like a dragon games

If the fascists are tech overlords, then our resistance must be fueled by abstaining from consumerism & technology. We must collectively stop empowering them with our eyes, our minds, & our dollars. "I'm gonna tell you fascists, you may be surprised. People in this world are getting organized." 🎶

For people wondering when the right began falling in love with Putin: It was after the passage of the first anti-gay law in Russia in 2013. That was the moment GOP elected officials and rightwing Christian grifters started showing up on Fox to heap praise Putin. www.theguardian.com/world/2013/j...

The day before his inauguration, Trump hosted what was billed as a "Coronation Ball". As if he was king. Because he wishes to be king. That is upsetting and gross all on its own, but made even more upsetting, and more gross knowing that this guy was invited as an honored guest.

That man’s suggestion today that the Führerprinzip is legal should terrify everyone. “Every new government decree, announcement, etc. is more shameful than the previous one…. This is truly no empty phrase: I can no longer get rid of the feeling of disgust and shame.”

We cannot ignore how shockingly abnormal it is for a private citizen — who himself has contracts with the federal government — to dispatch a private army of executives, data experts and recent high schoolers to dictate policies to federal agencies. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/elon...

Meet Aaron Craig Gleason, a Trump-supporting anti-LGBTQ+ writer, who has accused drag queens of “grooming” children for sexual abuse. He has just been arrested and charged with molesting a child under the age of 12. He wrote for The Daily Wire & The Federalist. Rot in prison!

Along with providing habitat for all kinds of critters, the dead hedge is a great way to get rid of fallen branches, sticks, and other organic debris in a useful and aesthetically pleasing way.

Palestinians have spent more than 75 years demanding justice and asserting their right of return and self-determination. They will not give up their land and their rights. We can never accept colonialism, annexation, or ethnic cleansing in #Palestine.

Musk, Zuckerberg and Bezos are working with Trump for one very simple reason: They understand that Trump's policies are designed to make the wealthiest Americans even richer. These three men have become $232 billion richer since November. Not bad in a couple of months time!
