Josh Holkit’s response to criticism about his racist and sexist attack on Michele Obama captures a key element of Trump’s appeal to young men: "I'm not here to be liked. I'm not here to be a role model. I don't care. I'm here to succeed.” This is Trump’s approach to life and politics in a nutshell!

At least the press no longer excuses these kinds of racist remarks as originating in white (or adjacent white) people’s so called “legitimate” frustrations about the price of eggs. If I’m eating from a garbage can, I still wouldn’t vote for a fascist. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Happy Barack Obama Appreciation Day! 🌟✨💫🎊🥂

MAGA gladiators meet tonight in the D.C. Colloseum built on the lawn of the White's House, by Donald J. Caesar, rebuilder of the capital, whose military conquests and political maneuvers are transforming the 250-year old Republic into a White Christian Empire that will last for a 1,000 years.

The world is turned upside down. The first trillionaire is an unapologetic white supremacist who does Nazi salutes! WOW!

Anti-imperialist scholar and activist Walter Rodney was killed on this day in 1980. "By what standard of morality can the violence used by a slave to break his chains be considered the same as the violence of a slave master?"

Trump reminds the world that Western Civilization’s Civilizing Civilizationists can’t stop kicking ass and digging graves all over the globe.

The need to rule the world and subjugate nonwhites has been the white man’s burden since the age of discovery.

Just watched the western Shane. Joey ran 20 miles following Shane to the shootout. Damn, kids had stamina back then! YES, Shane died in the saddle. I can’t believe Alan Ladd was only 5′ 6″ or that Jack Palance was once young!

For much of the last 2,000 years, the entire Middle East has been a “War Crimes’ Zone.

Celebrate the accomplishments of only white men, make the military a place where nonwhites will not want to serve or be pushed out, indoctrinate those left to believe they are Christian warriors, AND put white men in charge of everything. WHAT COULD GO WRONG? www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

WTH!?!?!

I’m glad he finally stated the obvious. Part of the reason we have Trump and this neofascist turn in America is because of the myth of a post-racial America. Obama drove a lot of white people insane. We forget how racism fueled the Tea Party Movement which birthed MAGA. apple.news/A04hWc71DQvm...

I’m jealous. I didn’t know that all I had to do is be a white guy with a buzz cut and look like an enforcer for the mob! I want to run a Fortune 500 company with NO credentials. www.cnbc.com/2026/06/04/p...

Damn, I thought I was going to have to donate a kidney on EBay just to be reimbursed for $30ish lunch I purchased at a conference but failed to submit the itemized receipt for. I was asked several times if I purchased alcohol which the university does not pay for. ctmirror.org/2026/06/03/n...

After I listen to the same commercials over-and-over during breaks on Sirius XM for CNN or MSNOW, I can’t figure out if in anticipation of the inevitable collapse of society each ad predicts, whether I should buy gold, take testosterone shots, or buy survivor food kits that’ll last for years.

Thinking about appearing on a reality television show, being the most infamous and outrageous cast member, and then running for president in 2028.

Setting aside for a moment the rants of a soon to be white supremacist trillionaire, why does Hollywood recycle these same stories. With all the talented writers in the world, why not come up with new tales. I can’t take another Hercules, King Arthur or Robin Hood story! apple.news/AqF97nofxTYm...

I have been forwarding this edition of @billmckibben.bsky.social's newsletter to everyone I know. The impact of Musk and Trump's cuts to USAID didn't hit right away, but they are hitting now. And in Somalia and the DRC it looks a lot like racist culling. billmckibben.substack.com/p/a-question...

White Christian Nationalism is a force to reckon with! It has a home in the Republican Party! www.nytimes.com/2026/05/17/u...

That election in Louisiana was as crooked as it gets. As Republican voters continue to purge anyone that stands up to tRump, it is clear that the party is speeding toward full-blown neo-fascism. White Christian nationalism is embraced by a large segment of the GOP. THIS IS what they voted for.

The White Nationalist regime running America has set its eyes on a global project of hegemonic dominance that involves kicking nonwhite people’s asses, starving children, depriving sick people of life saving drugs, and stealing their country’s rare earth metals, oil, and other natural resources.

I think I already know that the answer is no, BUT, I’m curious if they have also banned the books “Gone with the Wind” and “The Clansman: A Historical Romance of the Ku Klux Klan” (adapted into the 1915 film “Birth of a Nation”). apple.news/AIR6QM3g4RKS...

So they are planning to invade Cuba, kidnap a 94 year-old, kill lots of people defending him, and then hold a show trial that he might die before it’s over to win votes in South Florida? With the starving of people already happening? The White Man’s Burden is a MF! www.nytimes.com/2026/05/15/u...

This video brought back a lot of memories from my coaching girl’s softball days! The years I coached 4 year old & up softball clinics to competitive Rep Ball were rewarding! As much as I taught them about the game, the joy & laughter they brought to the field gave me even more in return! #SheShed

Governor Polis’ decision to reduce Tina Peters sentence undermines election security, weakens accountability, and permanently stains his legacy. This is a shameful day for Colorado.

After the Reactionary Right finishes undoing the 20th Century, I suspect they’ll focus on undoing the 19th Century. The 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments have to go to make this a White Christian nation!
