Fascism sets in EXACTLY like this. Days go by. Nothing improves. The people wait with bated breath for SOMETHING or SOMEONE to help. Court orders, but no enforcement. Time passes. We become desensitized. Life goes on. Rights are chipped away. Life goes on. People die. Life goes on.

Thou shalt not let your country become fascist because you’re so greedy and immoral you’re willing to pander to racists.

Tell me: if these dudes show up with guns in an unmarked van to grab someone, why don’t the Second Amendment fans think they should be shot?

You're seeing America kamikaze itself into a brick wall. It didn't have to be this way. But greed and racism, our two sins, will be our downfall. Too many people still with their hands in the sand.

Hayes: Every provision in this program is cruel and they know it. That's why none of them spoke on it in committee. That's why they have no response. That's why they don't hold town halls. That's why they don't answer questions. All they do is tweet, repeat, and hide in the back until they vote yes

Then he arrived a decade ago: someone who gave them what they needed to finally abandon the performance completely: permission to be horrible; a person who erased any semblance of decorum, any expectation of decency, any level of accountability. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/this-presi...

Very sad to hear Rep. Connolly has passed. Also, Dems might be wise to consider empowering younger people and not clinging to power until the very end?

BREAKING: The scene at the Rayburn Building is pure rebellion. Protesters are swarming in during live hearings on Medicaid cuts. Security’s losing control. Because when the government wages war on the poor, the poor fight back.

AOC: We need to be talking about ICE agents and the cowardly policy of covering their faces — and, in many cases, their identification… The idea that we’re going to allow a paramilitary force to bloom, one that isn’t accountable to the Constitution… we’ve got another thing coming.

Tear off the masks when they show up. Take their photos. Get them on video. Expose them. Out them. Name them. They need to be made into pariahs where decent people gather. We cannot allow them to terrorize us. Eyes open. Phones on.

AOC: If anyone is breaking the law in this situation, it’s not members of Congress — it’s DHS. It’s people like Tom Homan and Secretary Kristi Noem. You lay a finger on Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman or any of the Representatives that were there… we’re going to have a problem.

ICE agents know what they are doing is probably illegal, which is why they try to conceal their identities with scarves and sunglasses. #AmericanGestapo

At this point I really need every single American to be at this level of rage. I don’t recognize this country anymore. And he hadn’t even seen the news yet of the mayor being taken and congress members being assaulted by ICE. This is appropriate levels of rage.

I am positive that the folks who follow me already know this, but if you see a person being kidnapped off the street, put your body in the way. Record it and get in the way.

The way we were treated at Delaney Hall is almost unbelievable. ICE shoved me, manhandled @repbonnie.bsky.social, and arrested Mayor Baraka. They disrespected us and tried to stop us from conducting the oversight we’re elected to do. But we’ll never back down in our fight for what is right.

#ProudBlue #BlueEarth The more we learn about trees & forests we find nature is much more advanced than we realized & can be quite chatty. Older spruce trees remember past events, like an eclipse, telling younger trees not to worry. Kids, the sun will return! www.yahoo.com/news/hours-s...

We can only hope this marks the end of the Netanyahu era. History must not forgive his crimes. He should stand trial for genocide and crimes against humanity. Justice delayed cannot mean justice denied.

Coloradan Trisha Calvarese is working to unseat Lauren Boebert. A longtime fierce progressive and dear friend of mine is working on this campaign, and I'm excited to see someone with a real chance to consign Boebert to the cesspit of political history.

If as President you answer “I don’t know” when asked if you’ll follow the Constitution, you have violated your oath of office and should be removed.
