There have never been kings in America. The monarchy doesn't start now.

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism. We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

USAID isn't charity. It's a foreign policy tool with bipartisan origins that is critical in this dangerous global environment. Gutting it means gutting our ability to compete and keep America safe.

Congressman Rich McCormick (R) representing GA-07 held a town hall meeting tonight. The venue was filled to capacity (~600) by the time I got there. Lots of pro-democracy, pro-Ukraine, anti-Elon and anti-Trump sentiment outside. If crowd inside was like the crowd outside then Rich got an earful.

John McCormick: “Machiavelli had taught me that the citizens of ancient republics punished elites much more severely for corruption and treason than we do in contemporary democracies.”

Constituents erupt in laughter at Rep Rich McCormick tonight in Roswell, GA. MCCORMICK: “We’re not in a cult.” CROWD: HAHAHAHA

'Stand up for us!' Republican shouted down as he defends DOGE cuts at town hall: Rep. Rich McCormick (R-GA) tried to tout massive federal spending cuts proposed by tech billionaire Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency task force at a town hall in his heavily Republican district on…

MUST WATCH: Rich McCormick (R) got embarrassed at his own town hall because he wouldn’t admit the obvious—Trump is headed straight for dictatorship. He dodged the questions and got BOOED to hell. Things are heating up!

Rich McCormick was met with boos and jeers as "hundreds of critics" reportedly let him have it at the Georgia town hall event.

Rep. Rich McCormick, who represents a safe GOP district, came under harsh criticism at a local town hall that focused on the Trump administration’s moves to slash federal jobs and budgets.

Holy shit! You’ve got to see this town hall. Republicans are starting to get torn apart by their own constituents. Rep. Rich McCormick: “You don’t think I’m going to stand up for you?” Woman in the crowd: “You need to stand up.” Another woman: “Don’t bend over.” 🔥

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

AOC clapped back at Tom Homan — More of this.

He’s not making up: news.bloomberglaw.com/banking-law/... Is this really what y’all voted for? 🫤 💰

Bernie Sanders: "We're not only dealing with a move toward authoritarianism, we're dealing with what is new to America -- politicians have always lied, nothing new about that. But the level that we're seeing right now. The big lie, over and over again ... "

So you didn’t like the halftime show?

Maybe people are waking up?

#AOC 's live grounded me with the following points. They are doing everything bc they want the #public docile and paralyzed with fear. This breakdown of our safety nets is to fund 4 trillion in #taxcuts for the rich. We can #resist by learning our rights and calling our elected leaders.

Suddenly, out of nowhere, a declassified World War II-era CIA guide to sabotaging fascism in the workplace has become one of the most popular free ebooks on the internet: www.404media.co/declassified...

He is pissed and rightfully so. Looks like there are still a few governors who know how resistance should be done. He would make a great president. Just saying.

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

Moment of silence for all the Gamers who accidentally started the main objective while trying to explore for loot and collectibles 😔✊🏻
