On Tyranny Lesson 8: Stand Out Set an example.

submitted 1 hour ago • 0 comments

In 2020, the military was adamant about refusing to get involved in the election. That's why Trump hates General Mark Milley so much. Now, Trump is transforming the military into one that will back him up in 2029. We need to figure out how to prepare for that eventuality.

My governor, Janet Mills, told Trump that she’d see him in court over threats to withhold funding because of trans athletes. My money will be on Gov. Mills. Trump hasn’t had a great record against women in court recently. #janetmills #thewaylifeshouldbe #seeyouincourt

Lesson 2 in @timothysnyder.bsky.social ‘s On Tyranny: Defend Institutions They can’t defend themselves. Our society has to defend what it values against this regime that seeks to dismantle it. What do you cherish? Free press? Public education? Medicaid? These will collapse without support.

There’s an immigrant taking people’s jobs… his name is Elon Musk. He’s snatching farms, government jobs (even those in which they manage our national security), and definitely those whose jobs are to root out fraud (inspector generals),

If I were to receive a golden pager from someone who had recently killed a bunch of people with pagers, I’d really see that as a threatening gesture. Am I the only person who thinks this? It’s just so weird… kinda like every single other thing in this bizarro world now.

For anyone that’s wondering where Trump got the crazy idea of relocating Palestinians and taking over Gaza

Poodle color can fade throughout their life. Mando started out mostly black and has been fading into a lovely silver. And Trump is now suggesting that the US take ownership of Gaza, basically making it another one of his failing, tacky resorts and displacing millions of Palestinians in the process.

Susan Collins could say, "I won't vote for a single Trump nominee or Trump's reconciliation bill or any other Trump proposal until the President rescinds these job-killing tariffs that will raise costs for every Mainer"...but she will not do so! #MEpolitics
