This is what solidarity looks like. Together, we will win.

Ronald Reagan said it. #NoKings tomorrow 10/18

I do not like that man Ted Cruz I do not like his far right views I do not like his stupid chin I do not like his smarmy grin I do not like his lying whine I do not like his jelly spine I do not like him, not one bit A craven, phony hypocrite

Pritzker: Illinois is not a place you can conquer and our people are not your subjects

Newsom: This president appears unhinged… seems listless… he seems, dare I say, in decline—cognitively, and… physically. These are just the rantings of someone who needs an intervention, needs some help, needs to be stabilized.

AOC: And they are able to radicalize a generation of young boys in particular, away from healthy masculinity and into an insecure masculinity that requires the domination of others who are poorer, browner, darker, or a different gender than them.

“the constitution forbids race conscious remedies” would be news to the people who wrote the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments

Yes your taxes should support disabled people. They should support homeless people. They should support those living in poverty, children and the elderly. This is literally the purpose of taxes, and I would far rather support those who need it than continue to enrich the elite.

Literally nothing coming from the Pentagon, DHS, or DOJ should be considered credible unless backed up by an independent source outside of government. (This, for the record, is a huge problem!)

This is not just funny, it's smart. We need more of this mockery that shows these thugs that we see their despicable fascism and give them the respect that they deserve.

I am so GRATEFUL for Democratic Independent Media. So amazing. Thank you ALL! I depend on you to get me through this HELLSCAPE that used to be known as, The United States of America! Which one is your favorite? Please reply & recommend one. Let's support them ALL! (Other than Meidas WE LOVE YOU).

Speaker Mike Johnson just said he's completely fine with ICE agents shooting priests in the head with pepper balls and roughing up journalists. I'm sure he'll tell us soon about how it's the Democrats who are waging a war on religion and free speech though.

The is literally nothing more American and patriotic than declaring: No Kings.

The vice president of the United States is a clownish dipshit, Exhibit 64,532

Absolutely brutal.

As I got to know them, they gave me a $400m plane. @acyn.bsky.social

"Authoritarianism, it's a cancer. The symptoms are here, today... We thought it couldn't happen here... and now the disease is growing, metastasizing in America. But there is a cure—it requires you. On October 18, Americans will stand up, peacefully, for what makes America, America." nokings.org

This sums up their lying perfectly www.meidasplus.com/p/this-weeke...

The Trump administration wants us to believe that they are all-powerful forces who control everything and can be reined in by neither Congress nor the Supreme Court, but if anything goes wrong, it's Mastermind Chuck Schumer's fault.

Hey @jaketapper.bsky.social, I'm no expert on cognitive illnesses, but it feels a bit detached from reality for a sitting POTUS to forget that he was in power during an attack on the U.S. Capitol, doesn't it? Do you know anyone in journalism with experience covering dementia-like symptoms?

Trump was president on January 6th, 2020. So, is he now in late-stage dementia – or does he think his followers are exactly this stupid?

Trump was POTUS on J6. It was Trump’s FBI. Biden’s win had not even been certified yet. Trump’s lies are beyond insane.

Listen to the response to this and look how easy it is to say it.

The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.

Congratulations to new Nobel Peace Prize laureate María Corina Machado for her courageous struggle to bring democracy to Venezuela.

His slip of the tongue reveals who’s really in charge. trib.al/mIvP0yE “Illinois governor says we’re provoking actions that are unlawful,” Miller said on CNN. “If I put federal law enforcement and National Guard into a nice sleepy Southern town, is anyone gonna riot?”

The people put in power by Trump’s MAGA movement are sadists, who actually *enjoy* hurting people they see as their lessers. And that often includes their own followers. Psychopathic sadists drunk on real power.

this is an explicitely nazi administration and anyone who still supports them should be viewed as such

GOV. PRITZKER: “This is a convicted felon threatening to jail me? He’s an unhinged, insecure wannabe dictator. Come and get me.”

As @gregsargent.bsky.social argues, Gov Pritzker, Mayor Johnson, and some Dems are rightly treating Trump’s abuses against American freedom as the biggest issue, taking it on directly, instead of treating it as a “distraction.” Say no. Call it out. The regime relies on complacency and appeasement.

Chicago PD: arrest these motherfuckers threatening civilians. Put them in jail. Let the courts sort it out

there is a government shutdown with no end in sight and it’s not even really the lead story rn because the president can’t stop invading American cities for no reason other than spite

The Speaker of the House has firm views that Bad Bunny is a terrible pick for singing at the Super Bowl, but hasn't had time to watch the President's speech to our military leadership or form an opinion whether furloughed federal workers should be paid or Illinois' governor should be thrown in jail.

Chicago Pastor Sues Trump Admin After Being Shot by ICE GOONS www.newsweek.com/chicago-past...

It's happening right in front of you. Trump and the GOP are creating their own manufactured crises, lighting the Reichstag fires, blaming "them" for the violence (their critics), citing "left-wing" terrorism, all as a setup for martial law and the Insurrection Act. It's happening in plain sight.

This is fascism in a nutshell. Right here. "A counter-revolution against a revolution that never occurred."

"Dear Sweet Blessed Little Baby Jesus, please watch over our armed thugs as they turn away the stranger, persecute the foreigner and harm the least of our brothers and sisters."

Oh look the party that screams “family values” every five minutes is silent when one of their megachurch darlings pleads guilty to child sex abuse. But they’ll trip over themselves to ban books and attack drag shows. Tells you everything you need to know.

Jess Waters recycling the same guy over and over to represent “former” different enemies

“.. On closer inspection, however, it turned out that the image was not a photograph of a real event in Portland, but instead a fabrication created by combining two photographs of scenes that unfolded in South America nearly a decade apart ..” @theguardian.com www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

AOC: "Stephen Miller is a CLOWN. He looks like he's 4’10”. He looks like he's angry about the fact that he's 4’10”. He's taking that anger out at any other population possible. Like, LAUGH AT THEM. Laugh at them."

Trump’s order to deploy Texas National Guard troops to Chicago is illegal, immoral, and must be stopped by the courts. ICE is already wreaking havoc in our communities. Let’s call this what it is: an invasion by out-of-state troops coming here only with the purpose of tormenting Chicagoans.

(2/2) No doubt history will speak to the MAGA cult; how easily they were gaslit; embraced the most flawed cult leader ever; rallied around grievance; railed against their own interest; fell for an obvious con. But the unforeseen disaster - the biggie - is the media's wide normalization of a madman.

(1/2) It's quite a phenomenon that a 79-year-old man struggling with speech and gait, can tell an audience that prices are down when they're up, that tariffs make other countries pay which they don't, that he has solved wars he hasn't, over and over again, and it gets reported as sane utterances.

Hopefully the whole Bari Weiss thing and Ezra Klein thing starts waking people up to the fact that corporate media is mostly populated with mediocre people who have made millions and gained unbelievable influence because they threaten nothing and tell wealthy people exactly what they want to hear.
