Surprise, surprise, when you look at the numbers, we see it is the Republicans who are adding to the deficit. Not the Democrats! www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

I noticed that no matter what was going on — and sometimes really shitty stuff was going on — reading the GNR ... proved every single day that there are lots of people fighting... It gave me the information I needed to get involved myself www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

These are the times we are in. So we must fight to change what we cannot accept... Furthermore, lots of ordinary people are stepping up. Lots and lots! So, dear gnusies, come on in, and see what the good guys are doing. www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

I have another chock-full GNR for you today, and it has lots of opportunities for you to take action. I hope you’ll be inspired to act, but I also hope you’ll take time for yourself to do the things that bring you the most joy. www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

There is no doubt that these are tough, tough times and likely to be for a while. But take heart — You are STRONG and, when we fight back, we have power. We can get through this. www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

interesting to me that no one condemns republicans for “racial essentialism” when their most prominent voices — say, the literal president and vice president of the united states — believe that citizenship has an ethnic and racial basis. www.thebulwark.com/p/vance-immi...

This is a key point - and something the “It’s all about the money” framework doesn’t adequately capture. It’s also about a political, societal, and cultural order that distributes power and status along discriminatory lines defined by race, gender, and wealth. In other words: They really mean it.

I wrote last week: It’s hard to imagine two groups being more vindicated by events than the resistance liberals (a movement largely powered by women) and the never-Trump Republicans. They were right about Trump and how serious a danger he was from the jump.

For those of you who watched the video of an Idaho woman experiencing handmaid‘s tale treatment, now is the time to decide what you would do in that situation—whether it's you or whether you're nearby when this happens to someone else. We are in a moment where we all have to decide who we are.

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

When protesting, make sure to show support with other 3E movements & worried allies worldwide. Carry a Ukraine, Georgia, EU, Canada, or Mexico flags to show visible international solidarity and opposition to Trump / Musk isolationist policies. We are all in this together. #3E #EndOligarchy

Hey, so—sharing confident predictions that we’re all doomed? Not good for anyone. These people are malicious but stupid and not nearly as powerful as they think are, and literally nothing helps them as much as conveying the inevitability of their success.

If a Democrat fired 100 FAA employees and put a freeze on hiring air traffic controllers 8 days before an airport plane crash, there would be a right-wing and media frenzy for weeks.

Stop saying DEI. Stop fighting these people on the rhetorical battleground of their choosing. Stop letting ghouls like Rufo set the terms of all discussions and reality itself. Stop walking right into the hands of think-tanks and institutes that have set this up for the benefit of the wealthy.

Yep. Women especially. The racism is real and also promoted to distract from the deeper and more determined sexism. They really do want to remove women from public life/employment/independent lives and force them back under the control of men.
