This is the exact stuff that Alex Jones and white militia movements used to scream at the top of their lungs that they were afraid of and that it was coming any day now and what they failed to predict/confess was that actually they were the jackboots and everyone else was the snake.

Trump deploying ICE and then the national guard to attack US citizens to cover up stories about his involvement with Jeffrey Epstein isn't the first time he's pulled this move. June, 2020 vs June 2025.

Apparently, California will be the national flashpoint. Probably because it's the wealthiest state, and the most vocally anti-TACO. For those committed to peaceful protest, PLEASE practice de-escalation techniques, like this one. Film EVERYTHING. Share this widely with your groups, and be careful!!

If a Muslim in the US publicly called for a missile strike on a famous celebrity activist onboard a civilian ship or plane, the FBI would be investigating them for terrorism. But a rich white guy gets to incite violence without any consequences 🤷🏽‍♂️👇🏽

Classic example of how DC brained Dems sometimes think too much. This Musk/Trump feud is a gift. Cong Dems should lean into it; leverage it to introduce amendments to cleave the Rs while talking about the monstrous murder bill gutting healthcare, killing 51k Americans a year. This can’t be hard.

I was talking about this with my students yesterday—throughout Western Europe, Nazism is treated in public spaces and memorials as a nightmare, as horror that must never be repeated. If slavery and Jim Crow received the same commemoration in the US, we'd be a very different country.

So then Elon goes "Kill the Bill!" and Trump goes "Elon has TDS!" so Elon goes "I'm the reason Trump won!" so Trump goes "we waste billions on Elon!" so Elon goes "Epstein!" and a corpulent flunkie goes "Deport Elon!" and Elon goes "Impeach!" And THAT'S why women are too emotional to be President.

The nonpartisan CBO says the Republican spending bill will add $2.4T to the debt over 10 years. Of course Trump says, without evidence, that the CBO is working against him. What’s the adage when someone is always whining that everyone else is the problem? www.npr.org/2025/06/04/g...

Democratic politicians are embracing the Taco horseshit because it doesn’t cost them anything and they’re desperate to change the subject from their absolute refusal to actually fight or risk anything. After all these years I’m begging people to just see these things for what they are.

In a healthy White House, activists like Laura Loomer wouldn’t be let in the door. In this White House, she gets influential access to the president and vice president. Both parties have fringes, but only one party blurs the line between its fringe and its mainstream. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Also worth noting: if these "popularism" fetishists were serious, they'd put AOC, Sanders, and Warren in charge. They're the most popular Democrats in Congress right now. They should run everything, right? today.yougov.com/ratings/poli...

DC reporters have indicated there's some skepticism in Congress about putting their names on attacking Big Bird, so they may struggle to find the votes for this. Let's make it a little harder. Call your reps and tell them hell no to PBS, NPR and foreign aid cuts. Scripts/language here:

I say this all the time. I have sued every Administration since Clinton & could care less abt which political party is in power. Yet all I am is branded "anti-Trump" & partisan by MAGA bc of the cases I bring against him. Simple explanation: Trump does more bad acts deserving of challenge.

The thing to remember about Andrew Cuomo's breakfast order is that he resigned the governorship in disgrace after being credibly accused of sexually harassing at least 11 women with unwanted groping, kissing and sexual comments

Trump voters suspending their love of his cruelty because someone they know is suffering is sadly not scalable —

Important to remember that Cuomo resigned when a lengthy, detailed report on multiple varied instances of sexual misconduct was issued, and has never addressed several of the most serious charges.

It has been estimated that by eliminating programs like USAID and PEPFAR, the Trump administration has effectively killed 300,000 people Over 200,000 of them were children And if Republicans cut Medicaid as they’ve threatened, thousands will die in the US as well We MUST stop these ghouls

Not only are parks profitable, they inject billions to local economies and welcome 300+ million people a year. This is yet more wealth extraction to private interests not just from all of us as a nation but hundreds of communities and small businesses.
