This is not normal! As if federal employees didn’t already feel threatened enough—sure, let the brown shirts have guns; that’ll certainly boost compliance.

Following Elon Musk, the world's richest man, two speakers at CPAC, Steve Bannon, who was pardoned by Donald Trump, and Mexican actor Eduardo Verástegui, have now given Nazi salutes. This is a major scandal + should push us all to mobilize, protest, and call out #CPAC for what it is: a Nazi rally.

It is truly wild watching the same people who complained incessantly 2 years ago that “nobody wanted to work,” applauding the firing of tens of thousands of newly hired working people…

Along with voting for 7 Trump picks, Rosen was one of 12 Senate Democrats to vote for the Laken Riley Act — which empowers Trump's ICE to detain migrants with no due process. All the more relevant as Trump sends migrants to detention camps in Guantanamo with no due process.

Rosen has voted for 7 of Trump's nominees. Yesterday she was the lone Democrat to vote for Kelly Loeffler to lead the Small Business Administration. Loeffler & her husband (CEO of the company that owns NY Stock Exchange) sold millions in stock after she attended a closed COVID briefing in Jan 2020.

10,000 King Soopers workers are currently on strike for better pay and working conditions. Instead of negotiating in good faith, parent company Kroger has been using scabs and prioritized $7.5B in stock buybacks. Don't tell me they can't afford to pay a living wage.

Transgender men's invisibility is violent erasure. Sam Nordquist, a 24-year-old transgender man, was tortured for over a month to death, and his slaughter is not being considered a hate crime. The media has gone to disgusting lengths to minimize Sam's transgender identity. Hardly anyone is outraged.

Dear democrats. What Trump is doing right now would not be possible without Clinton, Obama, and Biden setting the stage. You aren't the heros, you're the people supporting the assault but too wrapped up in identity politics to realize you too are the bad guys. You/them are controlled opposition

The U.S. Department of Agriculture is working to reverse the “accidental” firing of several employees responding to an avian influenza outbreak. While the CDC says the public risk is low, the crisis is hitting the agriculture sector hard, driving egg prices to record highs.

I think most people are intuitively aware of this but something like the official White House account posting an “ASMR” video of shackled immigrants is not just cruel for its own sake, it’s intentional envelope-pushing to ramp up to desensitization over inhumane detention, camps, and deaths
