WE WARNED EVERYONE! Step back and take it in: the US is entering full authoritarian mode www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
Cost of Trump's D.C. Occupation: $1.1M per day. Cost to operate public housing for D.C.'s entire homeless population: $169,226 per day. It's not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.
There is a typo - Satan is spelled Christ
I wish more politicians understood how the economy is rigged against regular people the way Bill Burr does.
Mad TV was spot-on three decades ago.
And this is why we no longer have streetcars
Gerrymandering handed the GOP majorities in the House in 2022 and 2024.

"If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you." - President Lyndon B. Johnson
And no one in America doubts why he's doing this.
This is a grave concern. Law and justice is just toilet paper to Roberts - that he borrowed from Alito and Thomas.
Small sign of hope outside my Florida home
New in PN: John Roberts created a monster. It's about to eat him. "After all, how can the rightwing justices expect a future president — particularly a Democratic one — to accept rulings limiting the exercise of their power from a Court that served as the judicial stooge of an aspiring dictator?"
BREAKING: 34,000 people have showed up in Denver, Colorado this evening to see Bernie Sanders and AOC fight oligarchy and authoritarianism.

Per Dr Atul Gawande, ex USAID: “All malaria supplies protecting 53 million people, mostly children, including bed nets, diagnostics, preventive drugs, and treatments – terminated.” There are no words that sufficiently describe this level of cruelty and sadism.
Rebecca Kutler wanted to remove all the voices that covered the genocide of Palestinians. I'm sick about this.
This is how holocausts and genocides happen. This is where historic national malignancies grow. These are the first steps down a road that at the beginning seems unthinkable. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/fascism-is...
PLEASE: Watch what happened in Coeur d'Alene Idaho today. This is fascism. Unmarked cops. 1A violations. RESIST.

Their aim is nothing short of a new Dark Ages. Anti-science, anti-education, anti-democracy, in favor of needless human suffering. NIH cuts billions of dollars in biomedical funding, effective immediately www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

Schiff was on fire! 🔥🔥 Slime-ball Patel refused to look at Capital Police officers behind him.
Keep your messaging simple: “Trump fired everyone in charge of airplane safety, and a week later planes started crashing into each other.” That’s it. That’s the messaging. Don’t get bogged down disputing Trump’s false claims. Just blame him, in short and repeatable sentences.

Too much, or just about right? 🤷🏼♂️
What a brilliant president.
James Woods went on CNN and started crying about his house burning down and smacked talked the response from officials in California for the wildfires. But his house is still standing. Is he gonna praise firefighters and thank Gavin Newsom now or nah? Or even apologize for lying?

F*CK CITIZENS UNITED Next time Dems are in power, we need to have a bill like this here. 📌 Australia’s Labor Party has proposed capping political donations at $20,000 per candidate to prevent billionaires from buying elections.

This keeps happening.
Winner take all in our system.
Right - any void of information creates speculation, but if there is suspicious activity it would be investigated out of the public eye at this point.
If Russia is confirmed to have meddled in the past three cycles, they confirmed they helped trump win, Elon tweeting anyone spreading foreign interference rumors will be met with the hand of justice - I would double check before rolling over.
sounds like a confession
It is absolutely insane that we’re gonna turn the government over to these nazi criminals.
Like Weekend at Bernies - the Final Conflict. I'm sure this script floated around Hollywood before.
We need a Brooks Brothers riot now.
“A group of demonstrators carrying Nazi flags appeared Saturday night outside a community theater performance of the ‘The Diary of Anne Frank’ at an American Legion post in Livingston County.”
Don't forget Spoutible.
If you’re hoping for some kind of future MAGA reckoning, I’m here to tell you, won’t happen. Germans still loved Hitler while standing in the rubble of their homes scouring for food while he was in the bunker writing about how they deserved to die for failing him in the war.
