Everyone realizes they’re trying to shift the Overton Window, right? They’re conditioning you to be accepting of the insane shit they’re doing now so you’ll accept the more insane shit they do later.

Trump put a freeze on hiring air traffic controllers and, on Musk’s instruction, fired the FAA chief early without replacing him. This should be the only thing Dems are saying today. They should all be out on media saying this.

Why the fuck is a single Senate Democrat playing “everything is normal” by voting to confirm the Cabinet picks of a fucking dictator? Do. Not. Comply. You have ALL spent the last how many years calling him Hitler and now you’re like, ‘I’m a yes on Goebbels and here’s why…” Fuck that. Stop it. Now.

57% of all forest land in California is under federal jurisdiction, including the #HughesFire burning in the Angeles National Forest. We're offering mutual aid and support to the federal government to help contain the blaze and we are deeply grateful for the crews keeping our communities safe.

Trump to billionaires: I don't want you to feel cold, so I am moving the whole inauguration indoors. Trump to his devoted Iowan followers: Come and caucus for me in subzero temps, even if you are sick, and if you pass away "it will be worth it."

It’s laughable that the right hates California so much but has no answer on what they would do without the 5th largest economy in the world driving the economy of the United States.

Biden should release the Jack Smith report for the sake of national security. What's going to happen to him? Nothing. He's the President and the Supreme Court has given him absolute immunity for actions done within his duties.

"The false report from Fox, which was attributed to anonymous sources, confused the public – and evidently Trump too. The misinformation is still circulating a day later – serving as a cautionary tale about the news ecosystem as the new year begins."

President Jimmy Carter has passed away at 100. He taught us about compassion, empathy & kindness from watching him here when he was hurt & persevered to do what he loved best at Habitat For Humanity! He inspired us to be better humans. What an incredible person & gift he was. May he rest in peace.🙏💜

Can we just admit that we NEED immigrants for our economy to run, from agriculture to high tech? We’re a goddamn nation of immigrants, aren’t we? Let’s be proud of our immigrant heritage!

Over in the other place, the billionaire owner is threatening to fund ‘moderate’ (rightwing) candidates in heavily Democratic districts too. This is what oligarchy looks like. It’s the biggest threat to democracy today. Not ‘cancel culture.’ Not trans kids. Not college protesters. Oligarchy.

AOC was on track to secure the votes to become the next ranking member of the House Oversight Committee. Then Nancy Pelosi threw her weight around to secure the votes for 74 year-old Gerry Connolly, who announced he was diagnosed with esophageal cancer last month. Nancy Pelosi needs to retire.

The Democratic party will continue to lose far, far into the future because their clueless 70+ members are never going to get out of the way until they pass away. They do not care about winning. They only care about insider trading and enriching themselves.

When I read a new interview from Harris’s Dep Campaign Manager, it hit home for me because it was something I have warned about for years. Dems are losing the Information War, but there is one big way they can turn things around. open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...
