All you maga red farmers get lined up for your socialist welfare handouts. Good little piggies!

As a US Army veteran, I have to ask: why isn’t our military defending our constitution? There’s plenty of gross “in plain sight” evidence to justify interceding in this corrupt administration’s fascist takeover of our country. And yet, nothing but crickets and resignations. I’m gutted.

I'm Kat Abughazaleh and I'm running for Congress.

"Outrage and betrayal" AOC on House Dem.

Yeah, I think that’s already enough scrolling for me today. Traitorous senate dems. Fuck the DNC and fuck every single “moderate” democrat. Fuck whitewashing shitheads like Platner and his nazi tat. Fuck the excessively wealthy. Fuck all you religious magical thinkers. Just … 😞

SNAP benefits are under attack during this government shutdown and food banks are picking up the slack. But they need your help. Here are the best ways to do that:

Going to just bask in the glorious results tonight 😁💙😁 Thank you, every blue voter!

Venezuela has asked China for help. Perfect opportunity for China to showcase their military advances. Meanwhile, US military has been weakened by maga changes, and leadership is emotional and reactive. US is going to get played and made to look weak on the global military stage.

I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice. This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

Remember to support your local food bank right now! Food insecurity is coming for a lot of folks. And if you see someone shoplifting food, kids clothing, baby supplies, formula … You didn’t see anything.

“Settling” for Platner out any other candidate is how got here in the first place. Vote FOR someone, not just against the opposition. His claims of “I didn’t know” are hot bullshit. He’s a fucking adult.

Lifting weights makes my anxiety stfu for a fair bit. Highly recommended.

Purdue to the rescue of IU student newspaper, whose institution was attempting censorship. Details in alt!

🚨The absence of media coverage of this natural disaster in Alaska, the lost/missing people, and the destruction of the aftermath is up to us to share. Please help if you can - even if it is just spreading awareness. There is no FEMA going to help them. 1/2

Trump enacting the insurrection act may well invoke a self-fulfilling prophecy.

youtube.com/shorts/WDHFe... This does a good job answering that question

Holy crap. Trump will make the FCC crucify Jimmy Kimmel for this.

“These violent delights have violent ends, and in their triumph die, like fire and powder”

Meanwhile, in my ruby red state, zero ICE this happening. Not that I want them to! But everyone here is lulled by not having the horror enacted before their own eyes.

It just occurred to me that standard dwelling insurance does not cover acts of war. How long before claims start being rejected for this clause, due to ICE related damage?

To understand the chaos in Chicago, here are some must-follows: @unraveledpress.com @thetriibe.com @blockclubchi.bsky.social @chicago.suntimes.com @katmabu.bsky.social @bencollins.bsky.social @dansinker.com @wttw.bsky.social

I’ve always thought Chicago would be a center of liberal joy. But last night i learned that it doesn’t even have a decent non-pillaged newspaper. Why is that? My ongoing search for a truly liberal state is leaving me feeling like that doesn’t actually exist in the USA.

Trump is the loud, dangerous smokescreen. The puppeteers are working quickly behind his facade to lock down this country. We need steady independent reporting of all those other things as well, with the same level of outrage.

Man, today has already been a shit show thanks to Pete and Donny. But am I understanding this correctly? On the day drugs get hit with 100% tariff we learn about TrumpRX, and a side deal with Pfizer? Somebody please tell me that I ate the onion.

The nazi party named themselves, just as MAGA has. Stop calling them republicans, nazis, conservatives. Make every reference be about MAGA. MAGA senator, MAGA FCC chair, etc. This is the same powerful rhetorical device MAGA uses, but with “liberal”. Turn that word back on them.

Dear representatives. It is “We the People” that you serve. Not “Me, Myself”. We the People are watching and collecting the receipts.

Hey, I’m just a white veteran. But doesn’t the new military “clean-shaven” rule harm almost entirely black men? Isn’t it a real problem for many of them to shave daily without getting horrible ingrown hairs? The rule seems deliberately racist to me. Educate me!

Pro wrestling was one of the earliest levers to get Americans to accept untruth as truth. Don’t tell me that “everyone knew it was fake”. I’m old, they didn’t. Why do you think the McMahon family has such political power now? The dumbing down of America was not accidental.

Think I’ll sit out NFL this year. Too much acceptance from the league (and KC) of players getting to play despite clear felonies, misogynistic players getting welcome air time, and the overall maga feel from every team and league leadership.

Subtle fuckery today from Home Depot and PayPal. After the delivery, HD added 70 cents to the charge and PP allowed it. CS finally refunded but the point is these little actions, spread over many customers, yield even more profits for these corporate bastards. Stay vigilant!

The rich and powerful are currently divvying up the world, deciding who gets what. You are a “what”, not a “who”.

We need to move forward. Endless posts lamenting the situation or seeking monetization to provide a different voice of lamentation. Protests are meaningless. Start thinking locally, share survival tips, make private liberal schools, etc. We are in a post-democratic country. Adaptation is crucial.

I'll say it over and over. I do not believe in gate keeping. I do not believe in pulling up the ladder. I believe in kicking the wall down like the Kool-Aid man, and making room as I go for those who come next. Just because it was hard for me, doesn't mean it has to be hard for anyone else.

Hoover, he was a body remover I'll give you a dose But it will never come close To the rage built up inside of me Fist in the air, in the land of hypocrisy. WAKE UP WAKE UP SHOTS FIRED WAKE UP WAKE UP

absolutely horrifying: "Minnesota state senator John Hoffman in Champlin and Minnesota state representative Melissa Hortman in Brooklyn Park were reportedly shot in their homes by a gunman impersonating a police officer."

I miss people just being courteous to one another.

You have your gospel. I have mine. Queensryche: Operation Mindcrime Released in 1989. Every single lyric is still perfectly relevant. And accurate. Get ya some.

Try this with AI: have it look for logical fallacies in op-ed pieces across turn political spectrum. Look at types of fallacies and the % of the piece that consists of fallacies. In the few I’ve looked at, 50-75% of the text can be fallacious.

Yesterday I used ChatGPT to look for the prevalence of logical fallacies in various SOTU addresses. Most striking was the near perfect final address by Eisenhower (where he warns of the military-industrial complex) vs current day addresses. We have become accustomed to illogical rhetoric.
