Celebrating AFD coming in under 20%—but massively increasing its votes to unprecedented numbers—is like saying we beat back the bully because even tho he took our lunch money he left us enough to buy some crackers.

Hi All, just sent out my weekend update (free as always). The only way to understand the USA and its interactions with Russia, Ukraine and Europe is to accept that the US is now a mafia state. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...

I will say it louder for those in the back... Bernie Sanders is the one of the best politicians in America, and in a just world the Democrats would be following his lead instead of posturing and looking for compromise.

Information was shared illegally. A career employee at the Social Security Administration provided unauthorized access to data to Elon Musk’s staffers. This employee, Leland Dudek, a data analyst, was recently promoted to acting commissioner by Trump.

I’ve watched with dread as Jewish folks in my life align with these views the last few years, so I repeat myself: the Christian Zionist endtimes prophecy at the heart of Bannon et al ends in Jewish conversion or death. I say as a jewish person to other jews: You are being used.

The new right wing talking point seems to be somehow 'the left' - whatever the hell they mean - is to blame for their shitty behavior. 'You made us do this'. That's exactly the language of abusers.

Something that wasn't brought to my attention until after publication is that GlomarResponder also made a lot of posts that appear to praise and defend Adolf Hitler.

If members of Congress—like Rep. Grothman —are this clueless about what the man who is dismantling our government is saying and promising, they don’t deserve to keep their jobs! This woman is in his face, begging him to wake TF up—and he just walks off. Pathetic.

In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Höcke claimed that "Hitler was regarded as only bad.” He has been convicted twice by German courts for using Nazi slogans. And at one point his own fellow AfD leaders thought he was too extreme for their party. But he’s hero to Elon Musk.

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio posted this moments ago. The draft US resolution is only 3 paragraphs. According to Reuters-Thompson, it was already seen by Russia's U.N. Ambassador Vassily Nebenzia, who provided redline edits to the draft.

Gov. Mills showed precisely the sort of integrity in the face of political pressure that the majority of the party currently lacks. More importantly, she did so extemporaneously and without hesitation from a purple state where this isn't a universally popular position. www.maine.gov/governor/mil...

It is vital that people with privilege use it now. I'm a middle-aged white dude. This country is literally built for me. I'm the last guy on the demographic chopping block. And I have a small but growing audience. I also am a state university science educator - well-positioned to see all.

“Small acts, when multiplied by millions of people, can transform the world.” –Howard Zinn. I hate seeing my fellow Americans afraid. Remember your birthright my friends. This is our country, our government, the people’s, not theirs. Don’t be afraid. Speak your minds! Don’t ever give up your power.

So I called Congressman French Hill's Little Rock office today, to ask if he was going to do a town hall. Not only was I informed that they do not have any scheduled at this time, his office staff informed me that he will only do "telephone town halls."

Prediction: the Nаzi salute will become common within 2 years. RWers will half-аss it for plausible deniability, memeify the backlash, then start fully doing it "as a joke" "to troll the libs" "for being hysterical enough to think we were doing it in the first place"
