Frank was right. I came to the same conclusion a decade or more later without knowing of this quote. And here we are allowing it to happen

Pritzker: "People of Illinois, we need your help. Get our your cell phones, record and narrate what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know that this is happening and that we won't stand for it."

Good afternoon & TY Bill @billthornbro.bsky.social 💙🤗💙🤗 @notdontrmp.bsky.social @eileennjflns.bsky.social @bm1970.bsky.social @wisedan.bsky.social @juice2024.bsky.social @sebright.bsky.social @danalemaster.com @michaelerhart2112.bsky.social @starfyre59.bsky.social @bhimabish.bsky.social

We need to speak with our presence in masses peacefully. We need to speak with our wallets in masses forcibly. We need to speak with our viewing habits by turning off our media in masses. When the wealthy hurt, we will be heard. It’s going to hurt. Fact. So take care of each other. Now & Always.

I love you all. Let’s fix this fuckered world

It’s going to take a bit for me to return the kindness. Bear with me. I’ll get all of you

A system designed to prevent tyranny of the majority morphed into a system of tyranny by the minority

Culture wars lead to tyranny; class wars lead to freedom.

I can’t tell you how much good could be done right now by average citizens socially cold-shouldering anyone tangentially working for ICE.

Truth

The government is doing everything to KILL our current government. They want us to be an authoritarian dictatorship. They are not hiding it. The anti-tyranny right, which is heavily armed, are cheerleading. They are fighting for the tyranny they say they’re against. Our future lies with us. Fact.

Nothing is normal with this regime. They’re told us their intentions before the election. They told us they didn’t need the votes. They took us we’d never have to vote again. They told us they were going prosecute enemies. They’re the only truths they’ve spoken. And we’re seeing it in real time. Fuk

I just took a Tylenol and one of the side-effects was chronic curiosity about who else is in the Epstein Files. Ask your doctor if apprehending pedophiles is right for you.

I think maybe we all needed this.❤️

In case you needed this.

"Who would have predicted this?" - Black women did. - Trans people did. - The *entire* disability community did. - The anarchists did. - Post-Evangelicals did. "Well why didn't I hear them." You did. But you disregarded us as "extremists" and "alarmists". And you are still calling us that.

Yes

I hate the current political environment. It gives me anxiety. I am wondering if there’s going to be a civil war or a fascist crackdown. Regardless, we all lose

1 + 1 = 3 Sometimes 1 + 1 = many. If you don’t believe me, you don’t understand procreation among humans and other creatures

Just had to use my narcan to prevent a Tylenol overdose. Thank goodness I prevented Autism in a senior.

If a masked person asks for my papers, I’m gonna hand them a pack of Zigzags - they’re French rolling papers.

Supporting the regime is like mining sand beneath granite. Eventually someone will die and they will be blamed for not speaking out even though they got the assignment and raised all the flags

The difference between the idiot and a UTI is the latter can be cured. He’s a herpes infection without healthcare - never going away

I'm so angry about the weaponization of government and corporate America capitulation, I just swore on MSNBC. Sorry, but it is how I feel.

Likely following many of them now. Happy to add more to my following list

Mueller, She Wrote is an awesome independent journalistic endeavor. Fact.

Jimmy Kimmel isn't returning to the airwaves because of "thoughtful conversations" with Disney executives. He's back because consumers sent Disney a clear message: selling out our fundamental rights is not an acceptable cost of doing business.

Joe Manchin says Democrats need to "move to the center" to win. I've watched corporate Democrats like him peddle this baloney for 50 years. Instead of caving to Big Money, Democrats should fight back against Trump and the oligarchs rigging the system.

I can make the following statement because this is what multiple studies have shown: If your child has is on the autism spectrum, it is NOT because you took Acetaminophen while you were pregnant. ACETAMINOPHEN. DOES. NOT. CAUSE. AUTISM. There’s no proven causal link. There is NOT.

15 years ago the Supreme Court decided corporations are people under the First Amendment. Today, sold-out politicians block progress on all fronts to appease their corporate donors. Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.

Storks stop delivering babies in the US. “We’re not going to allow any of us to be killed because some putrid pumpkin thinks we’re delivering drugs” - Stork Union President, D. Liver Babies.

Channel the energy you used to get Jimmy Kimmel back on the air into getting more Democrats elected.

Amen

If you're struggling with addiction, mental illness of any kind, chronic pain, chronic disease and you get up every day in this horrid piece of shit atmosphere and keep fighting, you are my HERO. I mean that sincerely from the bottom of my soul. Also, caregivers.

Seriously, good people, it is time to consider moving the UN OUT OF THE US!!! When the host country refuses visas of certain member to attend to bully and generate division, they have lost the authority and PRIVILEGE to host. Imo CANADA is available!!

This is a true, break the glass moment. Convicted Felon, Donald Trump, has ordered his DOJ to criminally prosecute his political enemies, but his comments will bite him in the ass. I discuss this existential threat to democracy and why it’s a REAL emergency. youtu.be/crRmS5_Us-o?...

If history offends & the reaction is to whitewash, the lessons have not been learned.

Read this. Act accordingly.

The current US administration is exhibiting 14 of 14 characteristics of fascism. I’m not ok with this

Authoritarian government is here. Those who stockpile weapons are not up in arms. Because it’s always been about tyranny from their side. They expect to be protected. And now they are.

Big names fleeing the Republic only helps this regime. When no one with a significant voice remains, authoritarianism is inevitable

Education, Health Care, News Media, Prisons. All industries that should never be For Profit. Yet in the U.S. they all are

Faith without compassion is cruelty, wearing a cross necklace doesn't change that. #EvilHypocrites

I hope so
