Pam Bondi deleted a government study showing that right-wingers commit more terrorism. The right cannot think coherently so instead of making their own studies, they censor legitimate ones. But don't worry Pam, I saved it for you web.archive.org/web/20250911...
We don’t celebrate his death, but we won’t hide the truth about his life.
They had kids, too.
Rand Paul calls himself a libertarian but does anyone really care what flavor of fascist he is?
I think we have Debbie Wasserman Schultz to thank for getting Trump 2016 instead of Bernie.
I’m as confident JLC’s intentions are good as I am CK’s were pure evil.
And some will pretend that’s a coincidence
But it’s not self- imposed. It’s imposed by the global oligarchy, a club Trump wants desperately to be a member of and is willing, even eager to betray his country to do it. The Trump regime intends to destroy democracy globally, and join a small group of fascist dictators who will rule the world
Second deadly US strike on a boat in the Caribbean. As with the first -nonthreatening target in an area the US military operates freely -no legal authority, nor attempt to cite statute -no evidence presented -no individuals identified -no articulated strategic goal, nor explanation how to achieve it
What the Hell, America Zapad, russia's great rehearsal of war staged in Belarus, now bears the mark of American participation, and that fact alone should chill every American patriot and every democratic ally to the bone. The Frontline, Substac 📎 open.substack.com/pub/trypilla...
That’s the sitting POTUS committing libel and defamation against a publication that has bent over backwards to advance his fascist agenda.
Today is the day of the special election to fill the seat of former MN State Rep Melissa Hortman, who was shot by a right-wing extremist.
The fascist Trump regime will use this as an excuse to withdraw from the genocide convention.
It’s an impeachable offense and the fact there’s not even pushback by Congress, the sole seat of war powers and the constitutional check on executive overreach, tells you everything you need to know about where we’re heading.
Beautiful! That out of focus rendering is smoooooth!
Brian Kilmeade has never had an original thought in his meaningless life.
WaPo is a fascist rag
C’mon guys, it’s not like she said “happy holidays” or something.
I met her at a gas station in Oakland once. Completely random.
NYT is a fascist rag
Once one has heard the “inflammatory” / racist / misogynistic / fascist / bullshit that dribbled out of Kirk’s fetid face hole, it doesn’t matter what else he said.
The most important words from that clip didn’t come from BK, they were, “see you tomorrow”, which is all this little performance was about. BK deserves all the scorn that can possibly be heaped on his pointy little head because his remarks about euthanizing homeless people were 100% on brand.
Every time I read an editorial in the Washington Post in which the geniuses over there predict how someone will act in office, I remember this.

And Magda Goebels made a nice strudel
The term for what she’s doing is, projection, but it’s a specific kind, meant to usurp the moral high ground, and it’s despicable.
The admiration of hate is not love.
What did you love most about him, Mike? His pointy head? His vacant, lifeless eyes? His stupid smirk? Or was it his poorly reasoned, hate-filled rhetoric crafted for imbeciles like himself? I know, it’s hard to pick just one thing.
Brian Kilmeade endorses euthanizing homeless people: "Involuntary lethal injection, or something. Just kill them."
I heard a version of, “I hoped we were better than this, but we’re not”, which is more or less how I feel about the US, in general.
Last night I dreamed I met David Gonzales. We were classmates when we were 12 yo and selected for a program for gifted kids. David always seemed more mature and confident than most kids in our class. If you’re out there David, I hope you’re well.
Remember when that MAGA kid took a shot at the Felon and the MAGAverse went crazy calling for leftist blood and threatening a civil war? Remember when that RW goon dressed as a cop killed a democratic lawmaker and her spouse and republicans called for leftist blood? They are terrorists.
Thank you for do clearly self-identifying as a fascist sympathizer- it makes it much less complicated to disregard your opinions.
If we transported 2025 Charlie Kirk back to 2012 he would have been widely considered the most vile and contemptible human being in politics, worse even than Limbaugh. That he wasn't in 2025 is a testament to how much of a permission structure for gutter racism the right has built.
"I wish we could blame this on muslims or migrants, but turns out it was one of us." what a wild thing to say
Kind of explains why so few viewers get that Pokerface is an homage to Columbo.
JUST IN: Brazil’s top court sentences former President Jair Bolsonaro to 27 years and 3 months in prison over his attempted coup
I’m reminded of the old adage; live by the hateful shit that comes out of your stupid fucking mouth, die by the hateful shit that comes out of your stupid fucking mouth.
Utah is Pronghorn country. Pronghorns feed in open ranges and have exceptional vision that covers 360 degrees with a slight head movement. Pronghorn hunters routinely make kills from 200 meters.

The product of photography is experience, not a photograph.
A corrupt regime doesn’t need to be competent. It doesn’t need to find THE killer, it just needs to present A killer that fits its narrative. My $ is on a brown person who can counter the fact that shooters are almost always white men who identify with right wing ideologies, killed by police.
The regime has no interest in investigating or gathering evidence, both of which can become obstacles to its official narratives.
The regime doesn’t care that Charlie Kirk was murdered, except to the degree it advances its pursuit of total power. The regime doesn’t care who killed Kirk, or who is ultimately convicted, as long as it controls the narrative.
They’re interviewing candidates
Political violence is bad, except when it’s necessary? Our nation was founded by revolutionaries willing to meet violence with violence, were they wrong to do so?
WHAT THE ACTUAL F*CK
I agree it feels more important, because it’s easy to miss that the first state-level alliances opposing the regime have formed around healthcare. Alliances beget alliances and can easily become military alliances when the time comes.
Just spoke with my CDC sources. They said RFK Jr. has ordered officials to hide tuberculosis cases, even as three active TB cases were just reported in Maine. He’s also suppressing bird flu reports. Pandemics don’t start with viruses they start with secrecy. RFK Jr. must resign now!
There’s always been a lot of crossover between eugenicists and conservationists.
History will remember that the first state level alliances against the fascist regime were formed around healthcare because that’s the weapon the regime chose to murder Americans on a massive scale.
💯
We could be saving lives. Instead, we’re literally paying extra to make sure starving kids don’t get food. It's starvation bingo for the "Conservative Christians" who think compassion is weakness and foreign children are expendable. johnfugelsang.substack.com/p/oh-theyre-...
The official DOJ Twitter account posting the equivalent of a screenshotted Notes app apology from a phone on 30% battery after the acting director got honeypotted on Hinge and confirmed plans of an Epstein/Maxwell coverup.
Is lying to congress legal now?
If POTUS and DNI are Russian assets, that means the rest of them are, too. Putin is doing what his Soviet predecessors dreamed of doing, and Americans are too soft to do anything about it.
I’ve studied US drone strikes, I wrote a book called “Drones and Terrorism,” and this Caribbean strike is different. Lethal fire at a non-threatening target in a non-hostile environment on purpose when other means, such as capture, were easily doable, and without even attempting a legal rationale.
Alliances beget alliances.
The example you cited is not a cause of fascism, but an effect.
Donald Trump paints makeup over a rotting bruise and calls it strength. The poster says Soon. The body betrays him, the lie drags on. America props up a sick old con man as if decay itself were a campaign slogan. The hand tells the truth he cannot.
And I share it!
I hope that whoever replaces him will also be willing to oppose monopolistic, anti-competitive consolidation. Someone like Lina Khan, for example.
Sure, any one thing could be trivial, but taken together it’s reasonable to speculate about serious, potentially term-ending illness. Nothing stupid about it.
“Fascism is caused by fascists is a tautology as much as cancer is caused by cancer cells is. Fascism is a predictable consequence of electoral capitalism. Our political system incentivizes fascism and people respond to incentives.
now try to unsee it
Presidential material right here 🤣
What’s the point of being a world leader if we persistently lead it in the wrong direction? How can we expect even our allies to regret our decline when we do nothing but shit on them? Forgive the Wilsonianism, but set an example worthy of admiration and emulation and the rest follows.
Tech bro gets lucky and claims to be a genius in an ever expanding horizon of domains is the story of the 21st century
It is wild that the Washington Post -- which claims "Democracy Dies in Darkness" -- has remained completely silent for more than a day about Trump's latest attack on free and fair elections. Support pro-democracy independent media. Subscribe to Democracy Docket today. hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0
Virginia Giuffre should have turned 42 this year, but her life was stolen by predators who preyed on her as a child and as a teen. She was brave, resilient and gave other survivors hope. We honor her spirit, her fight and demand justice for every victim of trafficking. social.demcast.com/s/WEVRrXIk

I’m sorry, I misunderstood. I thought you were suggesting it was possible to have good faith disagreements with fascists.
It’s worth a try
Do you mean neoliberalism or classical liberalism, or some other version?
Agreed, but that requires two reasonable and good faith ideologies.
Every day I wake up hoping today will be the day I can start calling for the impeachment of President Vance.
That’s awful- were any real people injured?
There's only one way to stop the rumors about Donald Trump's health: a press conference. Why won't he talk to the press, and why isn't the media doggedly demanding it?
RFK Jr. likes to claim that thimerosal in childhood vaccines causes autism spectrum disorder (ASD). So I wonder if he’d like to explain how the rates of ASD diagnoses in the U.S. have kept going up when thimerosal was removed from all childhood vaccines in 2001?
"The mainstream press is still in self-flagellation mode over how they purportedly 'ignored' Biden’s decline. (In reality, they never stopped talking about.) But this soul-searching is apparently only backward looking and exclusive to Democratic presidents." — @playtyperguy.com
Kim Jung-un, eat your heart out.
The White House says Trump’s hands bruise like ripe peaches and are not hardy enough for handshakes.
