Ryan Coogler: "Since our people have been here over 4 centuries, there's always been a lot of lies told about us. A lie no matter how powerful the person saying it is, is still a lie. And the truth, no matter how little power the person saying it has, is still the truth."

It would be irony at its finest if the situation wasn't so alarming given the number of Americans who fail to recognize the parallels.

Trump is not bombing Iran to distract people from the Epstein files. Expansionism and mass murder IS THE ENTIRE GOAL of his regime. The Epstein files mean nothing to him because he's a fascist who's seized power with no real opposition.

Shady JD Vance in 2024: " Our interest, I think, very much is in not going to war with Iran.  It would be a huge distraction of resources. It would be massively expensive to our country." (H/T Home of the Brave)

@johnfetterman.com just switch parties already. You make more Fox News appearances than most MAGA die hards.

Iran interfered in the 2020 election on Trump’s *behalf* by posing as Proud Boys and threatening democrats with physical injury if they didn’t vote for Trump. www.justice.gov/archives/opa...

This has nothing to do with the Epstein files. They were never going to take down Trump. This is about guaranteeing Israeli money in our elections/government and cheap oil/gas prices. They knew they couldn’t stop inflation on other items, so they are going after oil to make it dirt cheap b4 midterms

There is a very real chance these strikes killed Iranian leadership…Also, Iran has a limited amount of missiles to retaliate with and seemingly lack the capability of hitting meaningful targets. We have to be mentally prepared for the multiple weeks long victory lap.

We do know this is to make oil dirt cheap in the long run right? This has been the game plan all along. They knew prices of other goods would continue to rise but as long as oil and gas are cheap, they could carry that through the midterms. They have been using the “cheap energy” rhetoric for months

LEFT: Trump’s DHS just lied again. RIGHT: Wash post with video proof. Another man dead. father of 2, nearly blind, dropped off in the cold outside a closed coffee shop. They lied that it was warm & open. Without accountability it will happen again. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

I would love to live in a country that doesn’t absolutely embarrass itself daily.

Since MSM isn't hammering this message daily... I will: If. You. Don't. Have. A. Passport. Get. One. By. The. End. Of. March. GET IT.

The Trump administration has just deleted this photo of Trump Cabinet Secretary Howard Lutnick with Jeffrey Epstein on what appears to be an island.

Seriously though, why isn't this everywhere?! He lied under oath!! @nytimes.com @wsj.com @reuters.com @washingtonpost.com @cnn.com @msnowreports.bsky.social

Hillary Clinton’s fire and fury opening statement to the House Oversight Committee.

Trump delivered his State of the Union in the very chamber his MAGA extremists attacked on January 6 to help him overturn an election. And corporate media barely bothered to say it out loud. That erasure — that quiet smoothing-over — is exactly how authoritarianism gets normalized.

Not that anybody asked, but… The first 13 months of Biden’s term, the stock market rose 12%, setting a record high closing of 11 times. The first 13 months of Trump’s second term, the market rose 10%, setting a record high closing of 10 times.

Since this will likely come up in the SOTU: Yes, US stock markets are up since Trump took office (14%). But in the rest of the world, markets are up WAY more. Cumulative market gains are more than triple ours (43%)

A great bit of cautionary advice.. Beware of a political party that is more focused on keeping people from voting than winning their vote.

Confused why anyone is going to watch the SOTU when they do not have to? The lies are going to anger you. It is just long form Trump rally. You won't miss anything. Go for a walk, do a puzzle, watch reruns of your favorite show. So many better things to do with your time. Why give him ratings?

Maybe in 2 weeks.

@governor.ca.gov stop with "I'm just like the rest of you" performative bullshit. Why the hell would we want a President that is of normal intelligence? That is how we got into this mess in the first place. A President SHOULD be elite compared to the average person, the best of us, not average.

In any other administration, this would be a HUGE story! But in this regime, it gets lost with the daily onslaught of corruption.

Someone REALLY needs to call this moron out to his face and on live television. He seemingly just ignores everything on Twitter. I understand not giving him credence but people DO actually believe his nonsense and he is making a fortune selling merchandise to the meek minded.

For most of the day, the Fox News .com headline was about the guy shot by Secret Service at Mar-a-Lago..they must have been salivating at the idea it was some left-wing nutcase. Turns out it was another Trump supporter. Now it is buried to #16 on their website. www.tmz.com/2026/02/22/m...

“I’m just saying … bsky.app/profile/ronf...

I know, naive, but I honestly thought Democrats would fight back. Starting with ANY investigation of election results, voting down every nominee. Forcing a shutdown. Not caving during a shutdown. Shouting every day as a rebuttal to insane press conferences. But. Nope.

This AI photo sums up the MAGA/MAHA cult perfectly. My compliments to the chef!

Wondering if any republicans in Congress who flipped out when Clinton and Lynch ran into each other, or wouldn’t shut up about Jack Smith “conspiring” with Biden, would have anything to say about this shit.

All they do is lie. www.cnn.com/2026/02/19/p...

Virginia Giuffre’s Brother: It was disgraceful that Bondi couldn't even acknowledge us because if they did that, then they would admit wrongdoing. Our president can't do that. The reason is he is potentially implicated in these files. He may have to answer some questions himself.

@kaitlancollins.bsky.social at some point do you want to ask Trump how he has been exonerated by the files despite the allegations of raping a 13 year old? Anytime would be nice. Your career would literally skyrocket.

Fair comparison.

Everyone needs to be laser focused on what can actually take Trump and the GOP down. The midterm elections. Not Epstein, not Iran, not Russia, nothing but the midterms. The SAVE Act is happening. We cannot rely on the SC to do the right thing. @democrats.senate.gov write an amendment for free id!

We are boycotting the state of the union right? It has to be the lease watched SOTU in history. We need to make that happen

And yet not reporter decided to point out this glaring fact. What a damn joke they all are.

Not enough people are asking the question: if deportations are the goal, why are we building Concentration camps❓❓❓

The intellectually consistent position on this is that everyone should have to show ID & everyone should be issued national ID cards at no/minimal cost & everyone should then be automatically registered to vote & we should be done with any & all discussions about restricting suffrage & voter fraud.

The White House first invents a problem, then uses that to justify infringing upon our rights.

@housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov GET ON TELEVISION NOW AND SAY THIS "Who is paying for the ids? 50% of Americans do not have a passport and 20% do not have a valid driver's license. The 24th Amendment bans paying for something in order to vote." It will shut the GOP right up!

People are really getting caught up in the wrong things...Colbert had to cut Talarico because he is on "basic cable" and rarely has on Republicans. Fox News etc do not have the same rules as basic cable. Why aren't people focused on the SAVE Act and how horrid the messaging from the Dems has been?!

Hani Mahmoud: "I'm not really sure if we can keep calling this a ceasefire, so let's just call a spade a spade. When you have four months of supposed ceasefire, you end up with 600+ Palestinians killed, close to 1,600 of various injuries.. this is not a ceasefire anymore" 🎯

@democrats.senate.gov @housedemocrats.bsky.social how have you not figured out how to message against the SAVE act?? ALL YOU HAVE TO SAY IS “WHO IS PAYING FOR THE IDs!?” How the hell are you all so incompetent???

Re: Nick Shirley’s big California *expose*

My feeling is that voter ID requirements would be reasonable if rolled out in a non-election year, with a free national ID system that was aggressively rolled out
