There isn't just one me culpa needed to cover one obvious vote like reasserting vaccine effectiveness. Today's MAGA is,since Reagan, a billionaire created and funded diabolical scheme to strip power from the people and cede & destabilize for profiteers & privilege. open.substack.com/pub/heidihen...

Crony hire Hegseth removing merit, excellence, & intelligence through DEI, to remake our military with cronyism. At a time when we need to be strongest, he is trying to make us the weakest. This serves our adversaries only. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

Russia has been planning this coup for a long time. Putin is finally getting his revenge for the USSR's collapse. It was always personal for him. As Nikita Khrushchev said in 1956: “We will take America without firing a shot. We do not have to invade the U.S. We will destroy you from within”.

Obliterate democracy, acculturate vast segments of the population to totalitarianism (domestic abuse at national scale). The name, “Family Courts,” operate opposite of ordinary courts, in total secrecy & detached from the law through unlimited “discretion”. substack.com/home/post/p-...

Now that there is a tyrant in the white house with unchecked power, where are all of those free from tyranny, 2nd amendment revisionists who screamed about needing military weapons just in case a tyrant captures the USA. Not so tough now that tyranny is here. And it is far worse than imagined.

Jim Acosta: I think the AP should consider whether or not to sue the administration… and the rest of the press corps should start seriously considering whether it’s worth sending everyone into the Oval Office, onto Air Force One, or into the briefing room.

📢 “He’s trying to steal Medicaid to enrich himself. He’s gutting NASA to line his pockets with SpaceX. He’s looting everything good in America for private profit.” - @aoc.bsky.social at today’s #SaveOurServices NYC rally. The fight isn’t over. Join us: go.savepublicservices.com

🗣️ @aoc.bsky.social out fighting for the people & federal workers: “Every day our job is to wake up and say ‘what can I do today?’ — There is no act too small. Every action matters.” 🇺🇸

I keep thinking of the vibrant multicultural society in Ukraine, a model among post Soviet states struggling to escape Russia's orbit. Ukraine has a Jewish president, Muslim Minister of Defense, active LGBTQ community building political power for gay marriage, strong civil society. Ukraine must win.

The IRS is gutted. Oligarchs pillage our government, turning it into their personal slush fund. It's only a matter of time before legislation appears in California, New York, and Illinois to shield residents from federal taxes/wasting money on MAGA fraudsters.
