Unfortunately, it's true.

This says a lot about the core values of this regime.

I ask you, is this just a coincidence? Follow up question: Is there any possibility that some of this money finds itself into someone's secure bank account in the Cayman Islands? #FascistGreed #FascistsAreCorrupt www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

A Top Democratic Official Plots to Take Down Party Incumbents It's time we get rid of the rust and get some new blood. We need activists ready to put the fight to the fascists in power. #NoToCentrists

Happy World Art Day! Take the time to enjoy some form of art today. My favorite quote about art is from Picasso: "Art is a lie that makes us realize truth at least the truth that is given us to understand." What's yours? #Art

Americans are reading less but it's still fundamental to learning and critical thinking even in this age of the image. There's also a running current of anti-intellectualism in the country that minimizes the importance of science and intellect. It won't get better in #Magaland

Happy to announce Arte Publico Press will publish my novella, Clemente Between the Worlds. Scheduled launch: September, 2026. After thirteen years of interrupted writing, research, revisions and various drafts, I'm grateful it has found a deserving home. #writesky #genteofBsky #Booksky #BoricuasPR

Wall Street Bursts With Anger Over Tariff ‘Stupidity’ So sad for most of the Wall Street types that are having deep buyers' remorse. 😆 #Magaland

Has there ever been a more incompetent cabinet than this one? Seriously. Perhaps there have been some more corrupt (Grant, Harding, Nixon, Bush JR, and we'll have to see how this one turns out) but it certainly ranks up there in incompetence. #Magaland

Wall Street thinks Trump's tariffs will eat Main Street alive #Magaland #Economy Nate Silver's insightful analysis of how the stock market is quite good at predicting the economy paints a grim picture of the effect of TFG's tariffs on the everyday lives of Americans. #Magaland #Economy

Easter Eggs Are So Expensive Americans Are Dyeing Potatoes Hunting for Easter Potatoes. That's how we celebrate Easter in Magaland. Because eggs are too damn expensive. #Magaland

Leon just blew $25 million trying to buy this seat. WI voters obviously see through the bs. The GOP won both special elections in FL but by much less than TFG did in 2024. This does not augur well for the Wannabe Dictator.

Detained for exercising her First Amendment rights. Her valid Visa terminated. Arrested without any evidence of wrong-doing. This whole scene recalls so many incidents in Nazi Germany, fascist regimes and totalitarian governments. It will only get worse if we sit back and do nothing.

Price of eggs at ALDI'S in Stefanik's red district. Rationed. Never thought I'd see the day our right to unlimited cheap eggs would be taken away. What is this, Russia?

Anyone who wants to know why the Democrats misread the state of the economy should read this article by Eugene Ludwig. It answers questions we all have for why folks were still disappointed with Biden and desperate for any change that would help them. #economy #realitycheck

For the centrist/moderate Dems out there. A reality check: Trump pollsters say Bernie would have beaten him in 2017. thehill.com/opinion/camp... #leanleft

Part of the MAGA's attack on universities. This is extortion, the moral and financial equivalent of breaking someone's knees. Fascism, like other authoritarian ideologies, seeks to control education, especially universities, to silence opposing views and consolidate theirs. #fightfascism
