Prof Stanley--who is an expert on fascism--says Stephen Miller is using "genocidal speech" to describe immigrants that is very similar to how the Nazis described Jews in 1930's.

Terry Moran, if you’re reading this: the door is open.

I LOVE MY HOMETOWN.

“We don’t need another king, another tyrant, another dictator.” — U.S. Army Veteran, 101st Airborne We took an oath to the Constitution—not to serve the ambitions of any one man. What’s happening isn’t national defense. It’s a warning sign.

ABC News can’t fire California Gov. Gavin Newsom for telling the truth about Stephen Miller.

New in PN: ABC is too cowed to state the obvious about Stephen Miller "Miller and Trump are hateful bigots. Independent journalists can still say that. Journalists at ABC can’t, because the president gets a veto over their coverage. That’s not democracy and it’s not a free press. It’s fascism."

Musk's Twitter is now running paid advertising calling for the extrajudicial execution of protesters in Los Angeles. In most countries around the world, this is a criminal act.

Meiselas: Terry Moran, if you’re listening, we’ve just learned that your agreement has apparently been terminated by ABC. We want you to know—you will always have a place here at The MeidasTouch Network.

"Bothsidesism is 'suicide for democracy.' In becoming stenographers rather than reporters, journalists effectively legitimize MAGA lies, hate, and fascism as just one reasonable side of a debate in which all partisans are equally credible."

No notes.

Good for @terrymoranabc.bsky.social. He is free now and his legacy is secure. He will be remembered for speaking out and not bending the knee. Also he will make more money now and have a bigger platform and influence. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/10/b...

This is real. He deleted it

Just because a guy tweets he’s opposed to a bill that would devastate millions of Americans—does not absolve him from dismantling vital programs, shattering thousands of lives, stealing our data, and breaking the law. Now is not the time to let up the fight in defending our democracy.

Let’s make good trouble 6/14

I’m not typically a fan of cost benefit analysis in valuing life years gained or lost. But here the numbers are too big to ignore. $8.2 trillion of life years lost over 25 years vs a US budget savings of $500 billion over the same period. These NIH cuts will cost us dearly.

Republican is a synonym to hypocrite. This tweet is real. Kristi Noem, the Governor of South Dakota, posted this statement on her official X (formerly Twitter) account on February 6, 2024.

CA Citizens should call for the arrest of Tom Homan for violating their states rights and immigration laws.

"Leo has become a MAGA flashpoint ... his worldview directly threatens the Christian nationalist engine behind the rising authoritarianism of our time. He threatens to become a transnational counterweight to a rapidly expanding authoritarian religious network." www.rawstory.com/pastor-pope-...

This will be a critical week for democracy in court. I founded Democracy Docket for times like this. It doesn't pull punches or engage in false equivalency. It's fiercely independent and always pro-democracy. Subscribe now. hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0

Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.

Booker: "We have a president who did nothing as people stormed our Capitol, & then when those people who viciously beat police & led to some of their deaths - therefore cop killers - were convicted, he pardoned them. So for him to be talking about responsive law enforcement is hypocritical at best"

My dad, who has lived under a dictatorship, knows one when he sees one. His first text this morning is that we are now officially in a dictatorship. It is all pretty grim.

He didn't send the National Guard when this happened.

This is exactly what we need from all our members of Congress—SHOW UP. Thank you, Reps @gomez.house.gov , @repluzrivas.bsky.social , @ntorres35.bsky.social , and Lou Correa for showing up at the Federal Building to demand answers amid reports of inhumane conditions: no beds, no food, no water.

Whenever law enforcement agents are given a quota of a specific number of people to arrest or detain, especially with the WH policy director screaming at their superiors to hit those target numbers, bad things are going to happen. Quotas always result in civil rights violations.

FOTUS is deploying the military to attack citizens who are peacefully protesting. Just like millions of us will be doing for NO KINGS Day next Saturday. He is using this tactic to scare us. No way! We will not be deterred. See you on the streets America! #FOTUSIsACriminal

BOROWITZ: Mexico Renames the Liberty Bell the TACO Bell @borowitzreport.bsky.social

ICE agents swarmed a restaurant area in San Diego during dinner hour, and patrons were having none of it. Despite throwing 3 flash bang grenades to disperse the crowd, the citizenry stood firm and agents retreated. THIS is how you do it. ✊

"If what you're doing is legitimate and lawful, why do you need to cover your face?”

Today for the 13th week in a row, patriots gathered in Shenandoah County to stand up for Democracy. We meet on the I81 overpass in Woodstock, VA. Join us next week from 10 to Noon #taco #resist #goodtrouble @indivisibleva.bsky.social

Elon is sooooooo on Ketamine, ffs.

🏆

Is this why we’ve been seeing so many masked, unidentified ICE agents? As of May 29, 2025, ICE has 635 active agreements in 40 states—deputizing local cops to act as ICE. DEMS: Hold hearings. Sanctioned or not, we need answers. ☎️ Call your Senators and Reps now: (202) 224-3121

Overheard: Apparently Zelenskyy had some cards, and he didn’t need a suit.

Tough day for Putin lovers.

lol

Phang: These are bright, talented young men and women about to embark on the next stage of their lives. And what they got was a rambling, incoherent, dementia-laden rant. Just pure diarrhea of the mouth from Trump. He has no faculties left that remain uncompromised.

I am seeing a lot of people posting about this anti-democracy provision of the GOP budget bill. Here is Democracy Docket’s coverage from last Thursday. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Zohran is significantly to my left and I would still crawl over broken glass to vote for him over Andrew Cuomo (a rapist) and Eric Adam (a corrupt sellout). New York, please do the right thing.

We will not win the battle for democracy if those in the pro-democracy movement prize caution over taking risks. We cannot permit ourselves to be deterred by the defeats and public criticism that are inevitable along the long path of restoring democracy. Now is the time for fearless leadership.
