We should expect the regime — with help from Russia and other foreign actors — to engage in active measures to stoke tensions within the opposition. They will accuse us of being foreign agents. They will attempt to infiltrate the opposition with the aim of radicalizing and discrediting it.

There are things we can influence, of course. Most of what we can do right now is prepare, especially for participation in collective mobilization against the regime — and here I mean everything from becoming involved in local politics and civil society to learning the tactics of mass protest.

He was trans. I think that makes him the first trans person to carry out a mass shooting in history. 99.999% of the rest were white CIS men. There is a no point in denying who he was but little point in focusing on trans.

Negotiations 🙄 It’s not even appeasement. It’s capitulation and honestly far worse. It’s the US working hand in glove with Russia. They’re in the same side. Why would he seize his ally’s assets

While the world seeks a path to peace, Russia responds with missiles. The overnight attack on Kyiv shows a deliberate choice to escalate and mock the peace efforts. Russia must stop the killing and negotiate.

Name one fascist that got voted out of power. DC he’s turning into a regime controlled island. All that gold, that ballroom isn’t just for 3 years. Dont counting on the fcuker dying. Dynastic succession is what you’ll get. Clear as damn day the night he was declared winner.

CHAOS ERUPTS AT CDC CDC Director Susan Monarez has been ousted after RFK Jr. demanded she change her policy on the COVID vaccine. Top officials from the Vaccine Unit, Zoonotic Division, and the Chief Medical Officer are resigning, per reports. Horrifying news for public health.

I’m always, always very wary of anyone asking for money on social media. If I came across a starving dog my first thought would not be to pull out my phone.

The trump lackey doesn’t have much to do other than lower rates which is what he wants. Doesn’t need to hold it for long. My the time she’s reinstated the damage to US reputation is done.

It’s not their humiliation I care about. It’s humiliating for the whole country except the MAGAts who never had any self respect to lose anyway.
