I would like to reassert: if it is a crime to lie to the government, it should be a crime for the government to lie to the people.

Here is my opening statement to the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee today.

To any Democrat who ever said about any issue, "Maybe if we agree with Republicans just this far, they'll stop there," remember that you were wrong, it was obvious at the time, and you really should never believe that again about any issue, ever.

I figure on the day he dies, no matter where I am it will suddenly be like new years eve and fourth of july combined.

AOC: "Extreme level of wealth inequality leads to social instability and drives authoritarianism, right-wing populism, and really dangerous domestic internal politics. That is a direct outcome of the failure of democracies over decades to deliver."

the point of a billionaire tax is not to raise money on an ongoing basis. it is to make being a billionaire illegal

Cities need Artists. Humans need Art. Fund the arts, support your local Artists, and benefit from a better and richer quality of life.

I need all musical theatre and performing arts world to learn this lesson.

If Moderna is no longer bringing vaccine trials for Epstein-Barr virus (good evidence that EB causes Multiple Sclerosis), herpes, and shingles because of Trump appointees, I want prison time for those appointees. This might be dooming millions to disease they don’t have to experience.

Good news: there's no durable majority for fascism Bad news: we are locked in a life or death struggle against fascism and our victory depends on people with less understanding of how the world functions than my 14-month old

If anything, the ppl that should actually lose sleep over "what if a technology wipes out a bulk of the economy as we know it" arent the ppl that might be on the receiving end of that, but the ppl doing the tech creation. Mass social disruption never ends well for the ppl doing the disrupting.

See this why I couldn’t be a congresswoman, every time in the judicial oversight with Pam bondi it’d go back to me for my questions. I’d just play this video:

A. Nonsense. There are doubtless billions of people whose names are not in the epstein files and large numbers of those could invent cool things, write cool books, or be competent senators. B. Don't threaten me with a good time, tho.

Kid Rock is such a ‚Stop trying to make fetch happen‘ moment.

Sometimes I wonder if he thinks about how virtually the entire globe is just waiting for him to die. Especially those closest to him.

Don’t stop talking about the Epstein files until they are all locked up in prison.

In the QAnon conspiracy, Trump blamed the Democrats of being a secret cabal of powerful elites running a global child-trafficking and abuse ring. Trump claimed to be it's saviour. and Joseph Goebbels said 'you should project your own crimes onto enemies'

Good Q @SarahKSilvermam

I don't know whether I'm too old or too young to comprehend all the stuff, but never before in my life have I wanted so many people in power to die of prolonged, extremely-painful unnatural causes.

The destruction of the working class is in full strength. Strike.... Trump-GOP Law Slashes Amazon's Tax Bill by 87% as Company Fires 30,000 Workers, Profits Soar www.commondreams.org/news/amazon-...

Peggy Noonan is brilliant on why all Americans should be worried about the killing off of @washingtonpost.com (h/t @democracyeditor.bsky.social) www.wsj.com/opinion/a-la...

Immigrants are carrying this country on their backs while the right screams into the void. Here’s the Cato Institute report: www.cato.org/blog/cato-st...

Immigrants: 📌Pay more in taxes and take fewer benefits 📌Work more, earn more than the average native-born worker 📌Cost less in retirement, they do not drain Social Security for decades 📌Barely touch welfare, there is no free ride Undocumented immigrants alone saved $1.7 trillion. 2/3

Heads are going to explode 💥 Cato Institute just nuked the lie. Immigrants have cut U.S. deficits by $14.5 TRILLION since 1994, slashing the national debt by a third. All that “immigrants are bleeding us dry” noise? Absolute bullshit. 1/3

A lesson from Minnesota… shop local, support businesses that defend your rights. Screw the Fortune 500 companies ‼️

Each of these 7 items would easily be the biggest scandal for like 45 Presidents.

lmao it begins the distancing

Even if the regime is forced to slow down a bit, their goal is full totalitarianism. Trump is implementing fascism as fast as we let him. By treating this as something to be "reformed," Democrats are complicit in normalizing it. Only full-scale resistance counts for anything. It's up to us. 🏴

Everyone should familiarize themselves with the "less-lethal" weapons that the federal mercenaries use—both chemical weapons and impact munitions—and learn how to treat exposure. They mean to brutalize everyone who doesn't support their tyranny. Don't be intimidated. We can win. Keep fighting.

The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll

Whether it's a Hillary Clinton staffer asking John Podesta how to make risotto or Elon Musk asking Jeffrey Epstein where he could find a party featuring child sex slaves, there's plenty of embarrassing emails on both sides.

Man, it’s wild that normal people just go to work every day while the people who run everything meticulously document their sex crimes

Today in life under competitive authoritarianism Again, you don’t have to believe me. You can just listen to the guy who literally invented the concept:

Today in life under competitive authoritarianism

I think if I find out Jeffrey Epstein had a material hand in gamergate I might actually just go fucking insane

oh shit we got hennepin hannah

If you don’t support your creatives guys(gn) you won’t get to get keep them and a world without art is pretty fucking grim.

I hope this is true. But even if not, the alternative is so grim that optimism is the only way to get by day-to-day. Manifest that ish.

It’s doesn’t feel like it right now, but the people are winning and the regime is freaking out.

i have never felt less inclined to donate to political campaigns in my entire adult life

They move to Georgia, steal their ballots and change the narrative. Keeping the train rolling down the track of chaos.

"The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common, and that they’re the ones who are alone."

I am just gonna say it, these guys are completely emasculated by the knowledge that they have been out-organized by a group that is significantly made up of women, and all the bullshit call of duty nonsense is cope for their wounded egos bsky.app/profile/jeet...

I appreciate all the talk about accountability for these ICE agents and Trump cronies, but I hope everyone understands the absolutely TITANIC level of effort that will be required to overcome the intense institutional resistance to accountability that is inevitable in the wake of all this.

so ALL of these children just magically *have* orange slices after EVERY soccer game??? ok George Soros

"Recent events have brought Trump’s governing style into sharper focus," Jonathan Rauch argues. "'Fascist' best describes it, and reluctance to use the term has now become perverse."

a name is not enough information to be considered a “dox” and if DHS believes that then this is a secret police and we should be referring to them that way
