It's 1969 and the pablum sounding "Conservative Club" at Bradley University has invited Kenneth Goff to speak on campus. Goff, a "conservative minister," runs a paramilitary training camp in Colorado for Klansmen and neo-Nazis. The young "conservative" who invited Goff was Wayne Lutton who.....

The rights of freedom of speech and freedom to protest disappear when there are sanctions for the exercise of those constitutionally guaranteed rights. This is an obvious violation of the Constitution, and an effort to turn America into a tyrannical dictatorship

They might describe it as a formality, but changing VA treatment rules to allow discrimination based on marital status and/or party affiliation (anything not protected by law) is creating another loophole that MAGA will exploit, like every other one they can find www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Hey there Scott Walker. I noticed you deleted this after learning that in fact the shooter was from the right. I don’t think it matters either way, violence is violence, so I’m waiting for you to tweet the same thing with corrected facts? Cuz you’re uh, to use your words, “being silent.”

I think Newsom should make an announcement that he’s tired of red states taking advantage of California and it’s time to make a deal to reduce the deficit between them and pay more. I mean, MAGA backed Trump’s tariffs when he made that claim about the trade deficit with other countries, so…

Texas and Florida have more undocumented people than most places, but they voted for Trump, hence the law doesn't apply to them. The ICE operation is focused only on cities with Democrats as leaders. It is a political and not a national security operation.

Donald Trump was humiliated yesterday. Make no mistake, a man with such a brittle ego will lash out at innocent people to pretend he controls the narrative. He doesn't. We do.

I'm trying to imagine a Democratic president saying openly and proudly that he would be sending federal agents to target the 'Republican Power Center' in Texas, Florida, and Tennessee. We would be in the midst of a civil war before he'd finished saying those words.

Two of the three states with the largest population of people in the U.S. illegally are the red states of Texas and Florida. Trump, notably, does not name their cities when calling on ICE to execute more aggressive immigration raids. He does, however, name LA, Chicago and New York.

The right wing claims that: 1. Both Trump assassination attempts were done by the left 2. The Minnesota assassin is a member of the left On both LIES we must push back HARD. Because the TRUTH IS: 1. Both Trump assassins were Trump voters 2. The Minnesota assassin is a right wing extremist

Many new photos from new locations (see the top of the archive); improved photos for existing locations; a very long and critical Coda at the end of the report; a new sidebar (on right-wing violence) in the first section; and much more.

The idea that Biden let anyone into the country with open borders is a stupid lie. Also, only a relatively few are now being deported due to monumental ineptitude. (By the way, remember the bipartisan immigration bill last fall that Republicans sabotaged under orders of the Orange Dictator?)

The blowup between Elon and Trump hasn’t ended DOGE, it’s still expanding. Russ Vought now plans to institutionalize DOGE across the federal government, and Elon’s staffers are embedded deep within key agencies.

Donald Trump sued me for racketeering, I won and did not back down. Donald Trump tried to have me investigated, I did not back down. Donald Trump named me in executive orders, I did not back down. If your lawyers are so afraid that they are cutting deals with Trump, you have the wrong lawyers.
