Everyone who knows a Republican has heard them be unapologetically racist.
Remember who got us in this mess? Republicans, including you. Have some class and atone.
Mockler: Target turned on one of their huge consumer bases. And it feels like conservatives spent a decade saying go woke, go broke. Once the wokeness was removed. Now Target is immediately going broke.
Of course the fascists don’t understand makeup, lighting, or pacing. Also, “that guy you saw the masked men beat unconscious while he screamed for his mother drove without a license” isn’t a compelling argument.
Garcia: Congress has to know and understand that Donald Trump is, I believe, the most corrupt person ever to serve as President of the United States
Rachel Maddow on Donald Trump stealing $1B from a nuclear weapon safety program to renovate his fancy new bribe plane from Qatar: “Everywhere all over the world these guys are all the same. And they all want gold toilets. They all want to rob the country they lead blind.”
One thing I think we all need to think about (myself included!): the fascist regime is trying to crush our spirit of resistance by escalating to the highest possible degree. But, they are massively vulnerable to a counteroffensive. If we nonviolently match their escalation, they could crumble.
Nope. That's fascism
The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe. Will we listen to his words today?

ICE are shitbird thugs.
And many disagreed. It's a matter of opinion, not fact.
Please Rahm, just go home
"In the post, the former MMA fighter compared "hating someone for their political views" in the US to the treatment of Jewish people leading up to the Holocaust in Nazi Germany.". But it seems a lot of people like that kind of thing now. www.bbc.com/news/newsbea...
We found the waste, fraud, and abuse…
The posts she made were anti-Semitic, but thanks for playing
It's all lies
“He’s not involved in the global child trafficking ring. The lady in charge of the global child trafficking ring said so, and why would she lie about the guy who pardoned her for her role in the global child trafficking ring?”
Chat, is cancer research woke? The Trump administration seems to think so, having erased hundreds of millions of dollars being used for cancer research in a move that seems to be part of its anti-DEI, anti-trans, and anti-vaccine agendas.
Hey @60minutes.bsky.social - your credibility is zero. Just pack it up. Why bother?
Isn't there a statute of limitations?
Happy birthday

Bringing a banana to a gunfight. They are going to gerrymander Texas unless it's clear that it won't work. Fight
The Times partnered with a transphobic Substacker who used a Nazi-adjacent Substacker to launder materials stolen by a regime-aligned neo-Nazi in an effort to sabotage a surging mayoral candidate of color whose politics they didn’t like. These are the kind of connections I’ve been banging on about!
Ratings TWICE that of Jimmy Fallon. Wow. I did not expect that.
New in PN: Trump's effort to distance from Epstein complicated by his deep ties to Epstein
When your neighbor on the left is being dragged away by masked men and your neighbor on the right can't get an X-ray for their child, be sure to quickly explain that "both parties are the same" and whatnot.
Now seems the time to repost this big story we did a few years ago... www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
The schadenfreude ode to joy is my favorite. Danke, Nancy Faust
NEW: “They won’t shut the fuck up about it,” Trump privately vented — referring to conservative influencers and media types lashing out over the Epstein memo — according to a source with direct knowledge of the matter.
I visited friends in Minneapolis and spent hours each day in the park. So nice
Community solar > individual solar. Mass solar ( over parking lots ) is even better. On i-94 in western Michigan they just put in 1200 acres of solar. We can do it as a society
Why are they far worse? Which is holding us back as a society? This is just silly
No. They haven't come to their position based on logic. It's a tribal belief. No amount of logic will change their mind. Mock them and laugh at them until they cry.
The right-wing backlash against #Superman this week got me thinking: Has this happened before? That led to the discovery of these headline — from April 1940, when the official newspaper of the SS took umbrage at the comic book hero and ridiculed its creators. My how times change ...
If nobody cares then why does he need to tell Everyone to stop talking about it? I’m no expert, but, he sounds guilty to me.
Hey, remember when the Panama Papers were released and they showed how basically every wealthy person on the planet was avoiding taxes by offshoring their money and nothing was done about it except the reporter who broke the story was murdered with a car bomb?
Buy a used one, and Bezod won't get a penny
If your “leader” enjoys showing off concentration camps -you’re in a fascist cult. “We’d like to see them in many states,” Trump said. “And at some point, they might morph into a system where you’re going to keep it for a long time.”
You're in a blue state where taxes are collected to help people. Apparently we're not supposed to tell the red states anything
Libby puts library books on my Kindle. For free.
@driftglass.bsky.social
Found the fascist. Blockity block
We should have free college and trade schools based on test scores, not on how rich your parents are. And well funded schools. And universal healthcare with dental and optical.
As Goldwater once said - "A choice, not an echo". The future is not going to come from wishy washy half measure, and technocratic tax credits.
If you’re an elected Democrat (rightly) complaining about the GOP kicking 17 million people off of Medicaid, now is a good and credible time to critique the entire broken work-based non-universal US healthcare system. Now is the time to call for universal healthcare, for Medicare for All.
Her followers are the stupid ones. She's a grifter
Please tell Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland that it doesn't work. You're silly.
Block politico NOW
Horizontal mall also dead. The configuration is not part of the collapse
homedepot is only slightly red. Their founder was very red, but is not even a major shareholder, and now is dead. www.opensecrets.org/orgs/home-de...
seems very straightforward. You'd think Mr NumbersGambler could use the internet. accountants.intuit.com/taxprocenter...
it's not their being "hung up". It's the ethnic cleansing of the Palestinians. How about a "two-state solution"? I may have heard that before. hmmm
Owning and storing the election equipment pretty much will cost the same whether it is used or not. Fulltime election staff is the same whether annually or bi-annually. Savings are the ballot printing and the temp workers - including elections judges - and I have been a judge for 4 years.
So it would require state law changes to get rid of odd-year elections to save anything. $42 million is $5 per person in NYC. MIT says $2 billion per year nationally for elections, but how much of this is fixed and how much much is variable?
"the savings would total approximately $42 million every two years..Although savings might be limited by the need to administer county-based judicial and district attorney elections in odd-years, such elections cost significantly less than those for municipal offices" 1/2
I agree with higher turnout. I'm not sure about the cost. I hope someone has studied this.
You want people displaced in 1948 to "get over it" so that people displaced in year 70 can have their land. A people that survived ethnic cleansing doing the same is shameful. Own it.
I can love Jews and criticize Zionists. Apparently you cannot understand that. Enjoy your apartheid and ethnic cleansing.
All of the founders of Israel are from Europe. That's what make it colonialism. That's why racists support Israel of Palestinians.
non-jews have always been these as well.
Media for everyone would be mode more expensive ( See supply/demand). A gift to monied interests who will be able to crowd out poorer candidates.
huh? You're saying that Zionism is *not* colonialism? Palestine is a nation. A nation is a group of people. But favoring one nation over another because one is whiter is not a great idea.
even years means the same time as congress president. it means media is at the highest possible price. It advantages the rich, imho. Am I wrong?
The prisoners in Alcatraz were all found guilty by a jury of peers. That's why "Alligator Auschwitz"
But that gives them the right to ethnically cleanse the Palestinians? With American weapons? Because that's the issue. But you sure did a number on that strawman.
Hot take: Not only are work requirements for Medicaid bad, tying health care to work at all is cruel and we should be doing it less not more. Everyone deserves health care. Everyone.
Yes BOTH have claim to the land. But Israel will not share it.
Yes but only one group gets billions in aid from a white supremacist empire. The one seen as "white".
Trigger warning ‼️ This is one of the grossest - unprovoked assaults on an innocent I have seen to date. The Divided States of America: We the People versus the Police State.
He's 100% correct
But Zionism *is* colonialism. It is displacement of indigenous peoples for those who are "whiter". If you want Zionism to be treated differently, Zionism will have to change.
FUN FACT: Netanyahu has spent the better part of two decades trying to strong arm the United States into an unprovoked war against Iran and finally found a president stupid enough to do it for him. Unbelievable.
turns out climate change will cost dramatically more than economists predicted, and the cost of addressing it is actually negative. oops! prospect.org/environment/...
Trump's America is a fantastical and evil regime, regardless of his stupidity.

Not since the reichstag fire
They used to hide it better. So well that the dumber ones didn't even know they were racist.
Both can be true
Manual takes a long time, but is good exercise, good for grip strength, etc.
Pre ground is indeed a sin. You need a grinder?
They are trying to intimidate us. Don’t let them. It’ll be even harder to resist later if we cede ground now. Every person, if able, needs to be out there marching this Saturday. None of us can afford to coast on the work of others. Citizenship now requires more than voting. Let’s do this, together.
I wish it were that simple
Cops shooting a woman at point-blank range for trying to get to her apartment Very protect. Much serve. Cops are great
this is very very simple
Phyllis Schlafly comes to mind. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phyllis...
That vaguely Asian ( and very pretty ) woman making breakfast cereal from scratch?? Absolutely.
Sources are saying that Musk is funding the protests. Paying in crypto so untraceable. This is HUGE.
AOC: The girls are fighting aren’t they
because it might upset the republicans that they brought on liz Cheney to entice?
Corruption!!
2/11/25 – Wearing a “Dark MAGA” hat and black T-shirt, Elon Musk made several false claims about DOGE in the Oval Office. “I don’t know of a case where an organization has been more transparent than the DOGE organization,” said Musk. #LestWeForgetTheHorrors
Lol.
Exactly. No matter when or how you hybrid, someone is *always* remote, meaning that it is a teams meeting. Let people stay home.
I don’t want to live in a world where people are in jail and barred from work for smoking weed but an unelected man actively abusing ketamine faces no repercussions for illegally seizing all of our data and making decisions that kill hundreds of thousands of people
If Musk were Black or liberal, the press corps would be looking for all the ways to expand a junkie story. He's not, so they won't, even though the last Trump White House was a pill mill. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
