But why? It’s a mystery!

This was published last October www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Those in power from both parties who couldn’t find the courage to stand up to Netanyahu will not find the courage to stand up to President Trump and the oligarchs.

More of this. The fuck are you doing promoting a book when the country is falling apart?

Only the most respect for our C@H friends doing the right thing.

I appreciate everyone’s messages of support, I’m trying to get through all my mentions but as you can imagine, it’s been a bit of a busy day :) Remember - peaceful civil disobedience, and no kings, no tyrants. Not ever.

Oh it’s an extended stay, is it? Do they get late check-out?

bought and paid for

No rapist left behind

"The actions of Musk and DOGE have created moral dilemmas of a kind no American government employee has faced in recent history. Protest or collaborate? Speak up against lawbreaking or remain silent?" www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

The richest man in the world is doing this…..

In my email: PLEASE DONATE TO OUR FIGHT FUND in private: please stop bothering us we’re just three lil guys in a trench coat

This is how its done

THIS AMERICAN DOES NOT WANT YOU TO WORK TOGETHER WITH A FUCKING FASCIST TO FIND COMMON GROUND ON WHICH PARTS OF DEMOCRACY WE NO LONGER NEED

I've been cross stitching "I told you I wasn't hysterical" throw pillows for days now, yes

Musk is unelected and hasn’t been confirmed by the Senate to any official position. His aides are not government employees. What the hell is going on here? Oligarchy is a big understatement at this point.

"Gabbard isn’t a progressive or a leftist – and never was. She is a hawkish Zionist, who supports Hindu nationalism, indulges in Islamophobic tropes, and defends some of the worst dictators in the world." Me, with receipts, for Zeteo, ahead of Tulsi Gabbard's hearing this week:

It is 100 percent their fault. They intentionally shut out AOC in favor of an old white guy with cancer. They turned Harris's "fuck those people are so weird" campaign vibe into standard James Carville pablum. It is their fault. And we are all paying the price.

Funny, isn’t it.

I’m still not over the fact that Tim Walz went viral for calling Republicans ‘weird,’ put Trump and Vance on the defensive, then got picked as Harris’s running mate because of it, and then… he was immediately silenced, disappeared, and Dems stopped calling the GOP ‘weird.’

What insane times we are living in.

U.S.-funded Israeli military assaulting and threatening American journalists.

The ultimate goal is to eliminate civil rights law entirely. They are for neo apartheid to ensure white male control of the US.

Nazis: "that's a nazi salute" Historians: "that's a nazi salute" Average person: "that's a nazi salute" The Media: "Elon Musk makes odd gesture throwing his heart to the crowd."

He had two months between the time he knew Dems had lost the WH and yesterday. TWO MONTHS. AND for four years he’s apparently thought the 28th Amendment was ratified but said bupkis until his last Friday before retirement. Come on y’all. This is cope.

If only the United States could learn some lessons from South Korea:

Says a literal Fox host lol.

Conditions on Congressional aid to your fellow Americans but not on Congressional aid to foreign Israelis. Gotcha.

“This is what settler colonialism, if unchecked, leads to.” UN special rapporteur Francesca Albanese told the European Palestinian Network Conference in Denmark that she is “shocked” but not “surprised” by the Israeli genocide in Gaza. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/x6wgdc

genuinely chilling that there is a currently a *one vote* majority for the basic notion "Donald Trump can't just do literally anything he wants"

It’s heartbreaking to watch California burn. Terrifying to watch and there’s a visceral sadness I struggle to express. We live in an era when “Move on” are the cruelest words. Move on from North Carolina floods, move on from California fires — don’t do it. Don’t move on, don’t abandon people.

“Blue no matter who,” they said.

This article is 109 years old. And we still aren't doing enough to act on climate change.

In 2006, President Jimmy Carter published a NYT bestseller entitled “Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid.” In 2017, he called the lack of universal healthcare a “national scandal.” Some of those who are honoring him with words today would smear him if he were a candidate today.

This has always been the GOP game plan. Breaking the government is their top priority.

Now we need a picture of a smiling Luigi on a jetski.

"We don’t have a policy on Palestine. We just do what the Israelis want us to do.” - Mike Casey, the US diplomat working on Gaza who just quit his job.

Just an incredible, damning headline.

US State Department staffer—one of only two focused on Gaza—resigns: “I got so tired of writing about dead kids.” “We don’t have a policy on Palestine. We just do what the Israelis want us to do.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024...

International war crimes prosecutor about Syria: “We really haven't seen anything quite like this since the Nazis” www.reuters.com/world/middle...

United Nations statement: “Israel is accelerating steps to consolidate the annexation of the Occupied West Bank, including East Jerusalem, and to appropriate Palestinian lands, replacing Palestinian communities with settlers in violation of international law. “ reliefweb.int/report/occup...

Lol. Again, we are cooked

Where do the rest of us report the threats some CEOs pose?

How come no one is setting up a hotline for unhoused people to call if they feel threatened? (I know why you do not need to tell me unless you really want to)

Jesus F’ing Christ, there are a thousand groups that should be able to get help for “perceived threats” ahead of CEOs. - trans people - unhoused people - pregnant people - *school children*

It’s almost like billionaires are deeply invested in keeping Americans locked in ideological camps so we fight each other rather than them.
