Besides, there’s no way I’ll retire as long as a raving sociopath sits in the Oval Office & destroys everything I believe in. Trump is 10 days older than I am. If he can cause as much mayhem as he does every day, the least I can do is make a bit of good trouble every day.

Brett Meiselas: Israel’s assault on Gaza City has killed 61 in 24 hours, over 62K since it began, and injured 159K. Entire areas are leveled while propaganda claims “all is fine.” Propaganda tries to hide famine and devastation, but we must speak out against these genocidal actions.

Donald Trump is waging a fascist takeover of the United States. Democrats are responding the only way they know how: by heeding the advice of the wonks who helped get them into this situation — and whose advice is to avoid discussing what Trump is doing. More: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

The missing piece of this viral post is that the Texas officials are lying and deflecting blame. The NWS, hobbled as it is, issued an accurate flood watch for Kerr County the evening before and accurate escalating warnings overnight as the flood was developing.

People living under fascism didn’t survive by giving up joy—they protected it. They held onto the things fascism tried to erase: art, friendship, jokes, rituals, language, memory. Not as escapism but as resistance. As proof they were still human. Joy isn’t frivolous under fascism. It’s strategic.
