Defeatism is exactly what Trump, Vance, and Musk want us to feel. They’d like nothing better than for us to give up, so they can have it all. Cynicism and hopelessness play into their fetid hands. Keep up the fight.

My latest. The GOP is Officially a Fascist Movement "To confront & defeat the threat, America has to name it. The GOP is now a fascist movement that is beholden to Trump, Putin, & white supremacy at the expense of democracy, truth, & freedom." open.substack.com/pub/thelefth...

Some of us have been saying this since 2020 and even before: Dems should make corruption the central issue in US politics and public life and go on the offensive against GOP/MAGA/Trump transparent and hypocritical corruption and grifting. Most voters hate corruption.

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.

Sorry, but I did not think Adrien Brody's performance of "I'll be brief" was very good.

Obama and Biden may think they are honoring the office of the presidency by keeping quiet at a moment like this — if so that’s just preening vanity — they owe it to the office and to the Republic that until last month it served to speak up loudly and clearly and without relent.

Nobody should be surprised that our Secretary of State is a pathetic, weak, cowardly piece of shit.

If Dems were smart, they'd be all over these Epstein files. Demand they release all the information in these so-called binders. Trump Administration hasn't because they know it'll implicate MAGA players like Trump, Bondi, Alex Acosta others. Even Loomer is pissed off.

I got lazy using Amazon. No more. Buying directly from businesses, using Costco on-line, local small businesses and my wonderful public library for books. No more Kindle. It feels good and I will continue.

The dismantling of USA is not behavior that makes sense if you intend to face free and fair elections again. When does Musk’s cyber attack on our national security move on to make good on the one Trump campaign promise to his base that sounded like he wasn’t lying: you’ll never have to vote again?

I almost bought a book on Amazon today, but then I went to eBay and got it slightly used for half the price. Boycotting Amazon is fun AND easy.

A grassroots movement is calling on all Americans to abstain from shopping with major retailers tomorrow, February 28, as part of an “economic blackout.” I encourage you to join. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/boycott

The GOP passed a budget resolution tonight that will gut Medicaid, SNAP, and other vital programs — as 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. Why? To finance more tax cuts for the top 1%. We have socialism in this country for the rich, harsh capitalism for everyone else.

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source. Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

Just a reminder that fascists, authoritarians, dictators of all stripes destroy archives— books, museums, databases, &c— because those things provide windows onto a plurality of other ways we might organize the world. And so preserving, defending, and spreading that knowledge harms those regimes.

It’s been a long fucking day, I’m tired, and I misspoke. Let me rephrase it in a more correct way. Fuck Hakeem Jeffries and almost every other elected Democratic official for forcing me to be the one to get arrested instead of them doing their goddamn job and being leaders.

In case you still believe that Usha Vance is a victim here, she happily accepted a seat on the Kennedy Center board. In Handmaid’s Tale, the Wives enjoy their places of status right up until they lose a finger. Under his eye.
