We are arms dealers to terrorists.

For clarity, there is no such thing as a Roman salute, it is a modern creation trying to obfuscate the fascist salute honoring the man who killed 6 million Jews and approximately 5 million non-Jewish people in Europe during WWII.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Side note. There are eight members of the joint chiefs. the chair is black. the CNO (navy) is a woman. the other six are white guys. chair and the cno got fired tonight.

And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.

Even worse incompetence: they accidentally fired, then apparently today un-fired, hundreds of the people who manage America's nuclear weapons.

Once you vote for a fascist, you remain a fascist, regardless of your claims that you only voted because of personal issues like the price of eggs and didn’t fully support the rest of their agenda. youtu.be/YissPv9Ycjs?...

We'd seen enough election irregularities on Election Day to question the result. And then, like the villain in every Bond movie, he bragged about how he did it. So WHY did they let him get away with it? Read my latest Substack and find out. brooklyndaddefiant.substack.com/p/trumps-con...

Add this to his requirement that the NEA celebrate the Declaration of Independent. This is pure cultural fascism. Next comes an exhibit of degenerate art. Trump to Appoint Himself Kennedy Center Chair, Citing Disapproval of Drag Shows www.wsj.com/politics/tru...

Don’t just say DEI as if it’s a bad word. Spell it out. Say diversity, which is the lifeblood of American society & culture & innovation. Say equity, which a just society should pursue. Say inclusion, because decent people believe in increasing belonging, not isolating people who are different.

The world in 2025. Hundreds of thousands of Germans oppose neo-fascism. The top aide to the president of the United States supports it. apnews.com/article/germ...

🔥 AMAZING. Today, the Baltic states disconnected their power grids from that of Russia. It’s taken years of prep. What a moment.

Millions of Americans — including many who have been purged from their positions of responsibility — are standing up to Trump and Musk’s tyranny. Congressional switchboards are ringing off the hook. We are beginning to flood Trump and Musk’s zone. Let’s flood it out.

MORE OF THIS, DAMMIT!

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

BREAKING: Donald trump is actually doing something GREAT, promising to crack down on overdraft fees and to BLOCK medical debt from being listed on credit reports! WOW!!! LOL, just kidding. Actually, President Biden did all that stuff to help Americans, and trump wants to reverse it. Fucking idiot.

Lord knows I’m not a constitutional scholar not even a lawyer (and I’ve yet to check in with @kateshaw.bsky.social) but a legal regime in which “you can do crimes if you’re buddies with the president or praise him publicly” is *on its face* a violation the equal protection of the laws.

Pope Francis’ letter to U.S. Bishops is incedibly powerful. This stands out to me especially. Every purported Christian faith leader who has endorsed or stood silent before Trump’s ugly immigration policies needs to be confronted with this statement. www.vatican.va/content/fran...

“No American can be proud of a govt that carries out change in this way. Neither can these actions be rationalized by discussion of past grievances or appeals to efficiency. Everything can be more efficient, but adherence to the rule of law is paramount” www.americanbar.org/news/abanews...

If you’re wondering if you’re in a constitutional crisis and that the republic could collapse at any moment, you are.

I have never seen — and could never imagine — DOJ making a charging decision that is affirmatively NOT based on the evidence and the law. Whether you agree or not with the outcome, that is the very definition of a political decision — which Bondi testified she would not do.

Trump said a lot of really crazy shit yesterday but this little riff about him "owning" and developing Gaza I think was the craziest of them all. We are deep into Mad King territory here everyone. He did not sound well yesterday.

The Taxpayer Data Protection Act will make sure a billionaire donor like Elon Musk can never buy access to our Social Security numbers or bank accounts again. We need 3 Republicans to join @housedemocrats.bsky.social to pass this legislation.

Dear media, No, Trump isn’t “signaling” that he “might” ignore the courts. He. Is. Ignoring. The. Fucking. Courts. The end. Do your damn job.
