Big business and their fascist Trump administration puppets in the Trump administration are doing everything they can to make themselves richer and keep you poor.

In shocking news, the Feds are lying. While you should never trust the FBI, it’s a whole new game with Trump. Soon they’ll tell you organizers are terrorists. They’ll arrest a bunch after telling scary sounding lies about them. They might kill some people. Don’t believe a word they say. Ever.

Don’t think ppl understand the terror the Feds are unleashing on the streets of LA right now. Roving patrols targeting vulnerable individuals. It’s horrible. There’s no one coming to save us except ourselves.

Hahaha, yes, for real. Someone build a time machine and say this to Van Jones 10 years ago. Then come back to the present and tell the rest of these clowns to shut the fuck up forever: Schumer, Pelosi, Jeffries, Elon, Ackman, Thiel, Yarvin, Klein, Yglesias, and so many more.

I agree electing Mamdani is the most significant electoral victory in quite some time, but let’s save a few superlatives just in case all the billionaires leave, all the cops quit, and Dershowitz actually shoots himself.

Good to see they understand this concept. Now, go back to virtually every SCT decision under Trump’s rule and apply it.

Epic World Series but don’t forget Mark Walters profits from private prisons and ICE surveillance.

The billionaire class that owns your favorite team (including mine) probably supports Trump, ICE kidnappings and murders in the Caribbean. If they don’t agree, they are at least willing to ignore his overt racism so long as they make more money.

This is of course ridiculous. But why do journalists ask Bill Gates what he thinks about education, Elon Musk what he thinks about the federal government, or Bill Ackman what he thinks about NYC? Their only expertise is how to steal ideas, shortcut the law, avoid taxes, and fire workers.

One way the media keeps you uninformed is to treat billionaires as experts. Why is Gates’ opinion about climate change important? Is he a scientist, a PhD student, or a researcher in the field? No, he’s just a rich businessman and funder. The only angle should be how this makes him richer.

If we take only one thing from the Trump era, it's that the US government, cops, feds, and powerful people lie, whether it's to cover: ICE kidnappings, police killings, genocide in Palestine, torture renamed “enhanced interrogation,” or coups disguised as “democracy promotion.

I hope no one really thinks we can rely on state and city cops to arrest federal cops and stop fascism. These cops will stick up for each other way before they do anything for you.

This explicitly means Trump can order your murder, produce no evidence, simply by claiming you were a terrorist. After your murder, the @nytimes.com will run a both sides piece saying some legal experts claim your murder was illegal but the President said it’s not, so it’s really a toss up.

There were three No Kings protests in Thousand Oaks throughout the day. If you’re familiar with this town, you know that it’s not exactly a hot bed of activism. It’s a good sign that Trump and his MAGA fascists can’t even bully the people of Thousand Oaks. There is resistance everywhere.

Just went to the Thousand Oaks No Kings protest. The idea that these rallies feature America hating radicals might be one of the Trump administration’s most visibly obvious lies, coming in just behind his reported weight of 224 pounds.

Images below from Nasser Hospital in southern Gaza, taken in July 2025. The Ministry of Health in Gaza Strip recorded 460 deaths, including 154 children, due to famine and malnutrition, (After the IPC declared famine, 182 more starvation-related deaths were recorded, including 39 children.)

This is America’s legacy. Murdering fishermen, funding genocide, and starving children so billionaires can have more money and white supremacist Christo fascist eugenicists can live their dream.

It’s so hard to get people to turn out in big numbers that I’m grateful for the collective action, even if I agree with the analysis. Turning out people to say “No Kings” without further engagement won’t do much. People who show up can be moved further left. We should focus on that.

The richest man alive propped up a white-supremacist government and the consequences are global. His cuts to USAID weren’t “efficiency.” They were an eugenecist's dream, a death sentence for especially Black and brown children who depended on U.S. aid. To save what amounts to 1% of the budget.

“Kids”

The world’s richest man helped a white-supremacist MAGA regime slash foreign aid. The resulting cuts are a death sentence for children who depended on U.S. aid. All to trim 1% of the budget. The U.S. funds genocide in Palestine and starves children elsewhere. apnews.com/article/myan...

So praising Hitler, engaging in overt antisemitism, and calling Black people "monkeys" and "watermelon people" are youthful indiscretions protected by the first amendment that we should get over, but protesting a US funded genocide or racially discriminatory ICE raids is a treasonous crime 🤔

Trump reinforces the bedrock principle that you should always be skeptical of US governmental titles, departments, designations, and press releases. This was true before a racist lunatic became president and billionaires and Fox News talking heads took cabinet roles, but it couldn't be clearer now.

The people chanting for Palestinian freedom are called “antisemites.” The people joking about Hitler and lynching are called “Republican rising stars.” The actual antisemites aren’t on the quad — they’re in the chat logs of MAGA's youth leaders. www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

Is one person writing all the headlines? Same script for NYT, WaPo, CNN, Fox, NPR: Palestinians are “prisoners.” Israelis are “hostages.” That’s not journalism. That’s propaganda. Get your news from @democracynow.org @thedigradio.bsky.social @blackagendareport.bsky.social @inthesetimes.com

With friends like these, who needs enemies?

Liberals never learn: when fascists attack the left, don't join them. Trump sends the feds after protesters. Democrats send state and city cops, while prosecutors seek max jail time. This is history on repeat: You can't fight fascism with fascism lite. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/10/u...

The real terrorist threat to the U.S. is MAGA. The only way we can win is by everyone joining the fight against these christo fascists. If we ever do get rid of them, we can’t go back to a liberal status quo. In addition to deMagafying the country, liberals can’t be allowed to lead again.

You don’t need a sophisticated analysis or close reading to know the @nytimes.com has abandoned all pretense of journalistic integrity. These are extrajudicial murders. The U.S. deserves whatever counterattack these people’s families come up with.

You don’t get to take credit for ending a war when you’ve been paying for the war the whole time and it would have always ended the minute you stopped paying. This is like hiring a hitman to murder your neighbor, calling off the hit, and then taking credit for your neighbor being alive.

Any serious person knows Chemerinsky helped produce this moment. He conflates anti-Zionism with antisemitism. He attacks law students for protesting genocide. He joins baseless lawsuits alleging "rampant antisemitism." He teed Trump up to attack UCs for antisemitism and use his own words as proof.

The audacity. Chemerinsky, Jewish Faculty Resistance Group, the Regents, and their lawyers caused this. Exaggerating and lying about claims of antisemitism, ignoring real ant-Palestinian racism, and punishing people for protesting genocide is why we’re here. Chemerinsky is complicit.

Good example of how it’s easier to be them. Disingenuous headlines write themselves: Mike Johnson thinks pedophilia is a distraction. Republicans don’t have time to investigate child sexual abuse MAGA speaker claims protocol is more important than protecting our children from rape.

A veritable who's who of submorons, grifters, and fascists will spread lies and disinformation about antifa and antifascism today at the White House: Nick Sortor, Cam Higby, Jonathan Choe, Andy Ngo, Katie Daviscourt, James Klug, Savanah Hernandez, Nick Shirley, Brandi Kruse and Julio Rojas."

Trump's "Merit Hiring Plan" in action: Hesgeth, Sec. of Def: Shares war plans with his wife on Signal. Bondi, AG: Can't find the Epstein list on her own desk. Lindsey Halligan: 0 prosecutorial experience; can't find courtroom. It's not a cabinet, it's a clown car with a security clearance.

There is no center, center right, or center left. If your liberal friends are still wringing their hands about fascism, but devoting more time to planning brunch than to meaningful resistance, they’re complicit. We’re way past the point where voting and keeping up with the news is enough.

When the history of 2020s US fascism is written, irresponsible New York Times headlines like this will be used to show the complicity of major media. Trump is overtly saying he will fabricate an insurrection to justify the use of the military to take over US cities and the NYT sanewashes him.

Stop relying on @npr.org for your news. In just one example of how bad and misleading their coverage is, consider the intro for "Today, Explained" about the government shutdown: "The Democrats shut down the government to shine a light on healthcare. But the president cares about health care, too."

Eric Hamilton and Jean Lin should be pariahs among lawyers. Their law schools should disclaim any association with them. DC should disbar them. Every time one of these dirtbag Trump administration lawyers shows their face, they should be publicly humiliated.

The MAGA fascist government wants its armed supporters to attack and kill “the left”. What follows will be what typically happens when cops are charged with violence. The entire governmental apparatus will unite to protect them and authorize more violence.

Supreme Court: "No, I don't need to recuse myself just because I was on defendant's yacht last week traveling to his private island where we smoked cubans and ate steaks all weekend and I left with a Van Gogh for my troubles. I'm sure it's fine. There's no conflict." Oregon judge:

Why don't Democrats tell voters that they are going to keep the government shut down until the Trump and MAGA restore healthcare, withdraw troops from American cities, and prioritize regular people over billionaires?

Any strategy to resist Trump's authoritarianism must also include plan to help vulnerable people leave this country, or protect them while they're here. If not, a bunch of political dissidents you know are going to be arrested and/or killed. Nobody regretted leaving Germany in 1932.

Political dissidents were forced to wear the red triangle badge in the camps. Today, unhinged lawyers argue the same symbol is a "true threat" of violence in the anti-genocide/pro-Palestine protest context. A federal court in LA recently agreed, but movement lawyers are fighting the decision.

Now that @pbsnews.org and @npr.org are no longer beholden to federal funding, it's even more clear how routinely they fail to accurately portray what is going on in the US right now. We should only support if they start taking seriously their journalistic obligations under fascism.

if you still think we "might" be entering fascism, keep in mind Trump's been murdering people in the Carribean bc he says they are "designated terrorist organizations" (DTO), a made up thing. Now, he has designated "antifa" as terrorists, meaning anyone he calls antifa can be murdered.

It's incredible that Democrats can't figure out how to fight back. Trump is an open fascist, and there are several overt antisemites in the administration But is anyone more obvious an enemy than Russel Vought? He literally wrote all his plans down to destroy society and is now implementing them.

Has a single democrat talked publicly about the Executive Order that attempts to convert non-profits and governmental critics into terrorists? The fascists openly taunt them about how little resistance there is, and they still can't muster the courage to speak.

Democratic leadership’s abject failure to ever, for a single moment, act as an opposition party isn’t lost on Trump. He expected a fight. They laid down. 156 people are watching Hakeem Jeffries livestream. These things are related, but they won’t learn. Focus on what you can do locally.
