He loved to defend the “great replacement theory.” That is a blatantly racist and dangerous theory. It was one of his greatest hits. He didn’t deserve death, obviously ! , but he held many disturbing views.

I think Fox should read on air straight from the source — Trump’s own social media posts. Start there. He came down the escalator calling Mexicans criminals and rapists and 75+ million people said “yesh I like that hate and racism.” He’s called democrats “vermin.” Replay the MSG rally…
Ideological purges everywhere. Scary times all around. No one is immune from the fallout!
This is all SO SICK.
Homan— how about a list of citizens who have been arrested for crimes? He’s asserting that all immigrants are criminals.
Good pushback by Mika.
Homan— wow. Really? 30% of those detained have no criminal history but they’re assumed to be a national security threat? 70% are criminals? The admin redefined criminals as anyone here without citizenship.
Yeah. Astounding! Disgusting.
Amazing how quickly they ruled on it too, yet slow-walked certain other cases concerning Trump. Guess they’re okay with authoritarian rule and the destruction of civil rights. What an embarrassment.
$8 for a can of coffee now. Used to be $5. Outrageous, and why? Because our president doesn’t like the leader of Brazil? So much crap has been normalized in the media.
Wish they would cover women’s loss of repo rights more. Mika did a great job prior to election so we need to keep that going. There are women being prosecuted for miscarriages! There is so much dystopian oppression. Why drop the emphasis on the issue post election? It’s not right.
The GOP lawmakers are allowing all of this. And the voters had a chance to pick Haley or anyone else. It is a whole segment of the USA, powerful and not, who are responsible.
100%. What’s missing on the list that to me tilts Trump to fascist is the added attempted control of museums, history, and the arts. Reminds me of Hitler’s art purge— what he deemed “degenerate art.”
And he desecrated one of the best movies to boot.
Cat wants frog. Frog wants bug. After a few hours, the frog got its bug. Cat got a treat. Happy #Caturday
“Violent effect..” Just horrific.
(Edit: Both used to be $5.00)
$7.50 for a can of Folgers coffee at my grocery store. $8 for my usual jar of (GF) teriyaki sauce. Used to be $5.
Seems like there’s something in those files re Trump and FBI that MAGA Mike Johnson is trying to get ahead of and spin.
What a loaded lede: “unorthodox” tariffs should be “unconstitutional,” and “slow-footed” should be “careful.” Glad I unsubscribed. #trumpEconomy #JobsNumbers
$7.00 for a fan of Folgers in Bergen County Shop Rite today. Folgers! Why? Because Trump wants to punish Brazil’s leader for ousting his Trumpy insurrectionist former opponent.
Best species! We expect many Caturday posts. Congrats. Really cute girl.
Just leave the baby in the dropbox, right?
I hope this isn’t much sound and fury that ends up signifying nothing. RFK Jr has got to go. I’ve never felt more afraid to live in this country!
I hear you but I do think it brings awareness. Every little bit counts.
Dems need to give press conferences every day on the Capitol steps (flags behind them) stating the MAGA democracy infraction of the day and how to combat it. They need to speak with one voice — pro DEMOCRACY. Because this is clearly fascism.
Newsom at least is DOING stuff. We need someone to declare they’re running for president and then the press would follow and there could be a movement. Trump NEVER went away after losing in 2020. We need someone like that to declare and then keep at it. Maybe Newsom is the candidate.
Who is going to save us?
Catouflage #Caturday #catsofbluesky
They gave up any rights to caring about divisiveness when they voted for a guy who launched his campaign by saying Mexicans were criminals, rapists… and have supported divisive language beyond anything we’ve ever tolerated from leaders. Enough.
Just sent this to my two in college and one in high school. 🙂
“Cash awards” for women’s private business. Disgusting.
And you know what — an amazingly high number of Americans will believe him. They have no understanding of why an independent Fed is crucial. I feel like driving around with a ticker on my car that explains the fascist infraction of the day to everyone around me. We are doomed.
Only the “weak” ones. He seems to be a eugenics guy, self-admittedly.
This guy has mastered likability.
OMG. It’s like he’s a walking, talking electronic product that rewrites reality and history from truth to lies in real time. And Fox will amplify almost all of it.
Best comment I’ve read all day, and I’ve read a lot of comments.
Point very well taken.
Glad MJ is starting to sound the authoritarian alarm. Understand the reluctance to date and careful reporting but it’s time to get more critical. Military in the streets??? No. That’s authoritarian. “Improper ideology?” No. That’s authoritarian. Say it. Before it’s too late.
Indeed! And I wish she would report on the ongoing and worsening oppression of women and reproductive rights to their own bodies more…. She was covering that well before the election. Now not so much. Disappointing.
United States of Authoritarianism. #nationalguard #DC
It shows how too many voters don’t understand our system of government! They’re fine with the military policing civilians. Astonishing how ignorant and dangerous that is. But GOP leadership knows better. This is on them.
The normalization of fascism.
Are Fox viewers really that gullible? This is so stupid. It’s astonishing to see the lack of critical thinking skills.
Why didn’t he testify in trumps first impeachment trial? He wrote a book instead. Wrong choice.
I can sit like that. #caturday
Bolton had the chance to testify in Trump’s impeachment trial. He didn’t. He wrote a book instead. I’m so sick of people like him.
That is awesome! Keep it up. You guys have just the right info and tone. Don’t change!
Yes yes, a million times yes! I am having respectful conversations warning of impending fascism 😳😇 to everyone and anyone. I don’t care what anyone thinks of me.
Agree! An edit function so we can correct mistakes.
Her sycophancy disqualifies her.
He did say Trump has to stop declaring emergencies to wield unconstitutional power but he is always reluctant to call Trump an authoritarian. Why? There’s a disconnect. They’ve also dropped the ball on women’s issues. So much coverage before the election and now hardly at all. Disappointing.
And maybe now we can add “misinformation” as an issue as well?
Hideous. Garish.
Yes. And they say as much. I don’t know why the Times can’t as well. Vance, Heritage… this is their stated goal.
United States of Authoritarianism. #Trump #fascism #military
Incredibly cruel.
I needed that laugh! 😆
Kinda like the “fourth reich” “error” on the campaign website before the election.
He’s diverting funds from birth control programs to what he calls “Fertility Training Centers.” Yes, “Training,” to basically send women back to the days of the rhythm method. 🤬
Instead he’s offered fertility “training” centers. Yes, they are called TRAINING centers, as if women are dogs who need treats to understand their own bodies.
Economic data routinely gets revised. The GOP lawmakers who know better better start doing their jobs, otherwise they’re all complicit in the dissolution of our democracy.
The subjugation of women just keeps rolling along. Disgusting.
Agree. The whole press pool should be relentless about it. Enough with the lies! Esp the tariffs lies.
Gorgeous!
It’s the entire GOP Congress that’s responsible for the destroying our democracy. They’re actively endorsing all of it. Talk to your GOP and/or nonpolitical friends, no matter how uncomfortable, about it. It’s one way out of this we are not doing enough. Preaching to the choir does little.
Yeah. Infuriating. How about why that’s bad for democracy. When freedom of the press is undermined I’d like to see the “And Why that’s Bad for The NY Times” oped.
It’s the entire GOP at this point. It’s not just the administration that is autocratic and lawless and dystopian. It’s the GOP lawmakers who know better and are going along with this stuff.
Did she say that it’s NORMAL to have revisions? That economic data is revised routinely???
Agree
Is he a moron or does he know exactly what he’s doing — i.e., enabling an authoritarian? I say the latter.
Add gerrymandering to the list. #trump #gerrymandering #authoritarianism
I’ve been in one since Election Day.
Now we’ll see some serious rigging…. #erikamcentarfer
Yeah. The purpose is to give him, or rather for him to assume, power he shouldn’t constitutionally have.
#fascism
We are looking down the barrel of fascism. Trump fomented an insurrection. The GOP supports this. Also supports forcing raped women to bear the child of their assaulter. Both sides suck? I don’t think so. Very dangerous and cowardly posts like this will destroy this country.
The Dems have to do the same. No high road!! Enough of that. The GOP, MAGA, combo of both, will never stop exploiting every crack in our (dying) democracy.
If the baker didn’t have to make the cake for the gay couple because it violated his (immoral) values, why can’t the pierogi guy do the same? Can’t we all? Seems hypocritical of AD.
#socialsecurity Liars. These accounts can’t replace SSI, and they benefit the rich.
Amen!
Article rightly refutes that they’re abortifacients but this admin doesn’t care about facts. They want to normalize oppression. So just saying birth control is abortive is enough for them. It’s sick. Fanatical.
It’s even worse than that. In the article, a spokesperson for the Trump administration also described these as “abortifacients.” They are setting the stage for restrictions on birth control.
Correction: Not “kinda.” Are.
Wow. Your comments are kinda nasty. I’m blocking you.
Wow. You are misinterpreting me. I voted for Biden. I thought he was overall excellent. I supported Harris. Just because I feel he was weak in some areas doesn’t make me a non-supporter.
I’m not blaming Biden for this — it’s all the GOP. But as a card-carrying Democrat I’d have liked him to fight harder. We have to be able to call out our own as well.
Well we agree there.
Term limits, add justices , impeachment proceedings…. FDR merely threatened to expand the court and they got in line. Biden was too weak in this area. Much.
They’d have needed to suspend the filibuster. They did have the numbers. But Biden was too timid in his court reform task force, or whatever it was called.
Under Biden. They did have the votes , and could have suspended the filibuster. Is that more “clear?”
Except for some blue state governors and also blue state attorney generals who have brought lawsuits.
Agree. But they should have done more when they had power, like try to push court reform.
Agree. Totally.
These are not “abortifacients” as they claim. They are starting to lay the groundwork to restrict many forms of birth control. This has been the desire of the fanatical contingent of the rightwing for decades. They are trying to redefine birth control as abortion. It can happen here.
Yes yes and YES. Even the attack on birthright citizenship targets women. It’s totally disgusting.
It’s so heinous that I don’t think Trump can even survive his own evil. He will resign or become ill. I predict we will have a President Vance within a year and a wholly different ugly reality to deal with.
Despicable. The Washington Post photo today was shockingly horrifying.
It’s a war on liberals. It’s obvious. I edit business and economics textbooks. Most skew conservative. Never, ever EVER (!) did I think I was being “indoctrinated” with theories that I might not live by. We are really in dangerous territory if we look at opposing views as indoctrination.
“Training” is such a disturbing word.
