If you wanted to know how an autocracy would start in America, it begins by releasing violent thugs from prison who beat up police defending Congress, illegally firing every Inspector General, and seizing billions appropriated by Congress for people with no authority to do so.

ELON MUSK: "Six million Jews systematically murdered by evil Germans? Bygones! Twenty million Europeans killed by an evil war Germany started? Bygones! Sieg Heil! Kidding! About kidding. Sieg Heil!"

"This is the beachhead team taking over the federal government" -Steve Bannon Trump is consolidating power and eliminating ANYONE in our government who could stop him from taking full control. He has to move fast to take full control before the midterms, when Dems could take control of Congress.

Despite living in a country that's obsessed with Superheroes who always fight for what is right and just, when it came to reality - our actual lives rather than the fantasy of film - those same superhero fanatics chose a super-villain to lead them. Why do we love good guys in film but not in reality

Trump claimed he could easily end the Ukraine war in 24 hours after taking office. It’s been about 80 hours now… no sign of an end. His asinine claim is now more than 48 hours past due. He lies. It’s what he does, almost as often as he speaks

I feel like this word was invented for our current situation.

The “radical ideology” of Jesus… the guy you believe is your messiah, Mike? Have you ever even read his book… it’s very popular. But your REAL “messiah” is Trump, who preaches hate, exclusion, racism, xenophobia, homophobia and misogyny… and that’s your “gospel” now, isn’t it. You’re a phony, Mike.

Whether it's a dive bar... or your country, you have to nip that Nazi sh*t in the bud... or it spreads, like cancer. Elon's "salute" was an obvious message. It was deliberate, defiant and emphatic... and he did it twice. Everyone knows not to make a salute like that unless you mean it. He meant it.

The war in Ukraine continues, despite Trump's claim that he would end it in the first 24 hours... so that's broken promise #1, with many more to come. His plan to stop the war in Ukraine has been revealed. He is asking Putin to stop the war. That's it. That's the extent of his "plan". What a joke

Why is the war in Ukraine still going? Trump was supposed to stop it within 24 hours!

I'm so excited to see the end of the war in Ukraine today... that is what he promised, over and over and over again. He said it wouldn't even take 24 hours. He wouldn't lie to us, would he?

This wasn’t an accident. This was a purposeful and deliberate message. This is today’s GOP.

The U.S. democratic republic: 1776-2025

Their true colors... shining through... Over 77 million Americans basically voted for a dumber version of Hitler, with a bad combover and orange bronzer. Be careful what you wish for.

The white supremacists who tried to overthrow our democracy 4 years ago, returned to DC to bask in the victory of their leader... a treasonous, racist, felon who plans to finish the job of destroying our 248 year old democratic republic.
