Can someone explain to me the difference between chasing and arresting people because they have brown skin, and chasing and arresting people because they have a yellow star on their clothes.

Rolling my eyes at everyone saying that we can fight fash//ism by being super nice to the fash///ists…🤦

"What you need is sustained outrage...there's far too much unthinking respect given to authority." Molly Ivins

Read the whole thing.

Please stop asking Donald Trump to please be reasonable. He is out to destroy you not cut a deal with you.

For 26 but especially 2028 it's time for Democrats to make clear that the current Supreme Court will have to be reformed (expanded in number, reformed in structure) to allow popular govt to continue in the United States. Not so much a litmus test as precondition for any other promise to be credible.

pack the fucking supreme court. 50 new justices, or maybe 100.

Why do headlines say "norms shattered" when what is meant is "laws broken" or "Constitution violated"?

ICE is abusing/torturing/disappearing/killing people using our tax dollars and in our name.

The chaos is the point.

American democracy died on January 20, 2025 at precisely noon. The question is: can we ever get it back.

I must admit, I underestimated how easy it would be for fascism to take over the United States of America.

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1 Trickle-down economics was always a sham. Nothing has ever trickled down.

Dems should commit to impeach Bondi and refer to bar for disbarment.

No word other than “fascism” to describe this regime

Describing authoritarian acts as authoritarian doesn’t incite violence. Decrying fascist acts doesn’t incite violence. Dehumanizing language is a precursor to violence & genocide. Never call any person an animal, scum, bug, vermin, parasite, or garbage. www.ushmm.org/antisemitism...

Semi-regular reminder that a sane country would have already impeached and removed. But then again a sane country wouldn’t have elected a maniac criminal twice in the first place.

Let Jim Comey be the living lesson for anyone who thinks treating Trump with any deference at any time will get you anywhere good.

Ted Cruz (r) - "Stop demonizing your opponents." What color is the sky in his world?

Wait, is everybody pretty much still here? Aside from normal attrition, of course...

I’m not taking medical advice from a man who can’t pronounce an over-the-counter drug…

Inflation is so bad these days that taking a $50,000 cash bribe can't even get you indicted. SAD!! Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Donald Trump just blamed the left for hate speech, while delivering a hate speech at the memorial for a man who said there was no such thing as hate speech.

I refused to placate the bully. Then I refused to placate the institutions who placated the bully. Then I refused to placate the shills who placate the institutions who placate the bully. I'm still standing; the rest are down. Never placate the bully.

the funny thing about the constant misappropriation of MLK is that the guy left a massive body of writing specifically aimed at explaining his views of those of the movement he represented to the broad public. it is extremely easy to know what the guy thought on a variety of subjects and yet

It strikes me that quite a lot of people knew for the last year that the guy running our horrific deportation squads took a bag with $50k in cash from undercover FBI agents investigating corruption, and it didn’t get out until now.

talked about this on the latest neonliberalism, but one of the distinctive features of the centerless centrists is that they try to triangulate not by paying attention to what conservatives actually want, but by what they imagine the median voter in their head wants.... ...with predictable results.

The Constitution gives Republicans control of the Senate even though more Democrats vote for their candidates. The Electoral College usually favors Republicans for the same reason, and with gerrymandering they control the House despite fewer votes. Legal, but hardly democratic.

I am proud to be born a Muslim. I am proud to be born in Somalia. I am proud to have become an American. None of you can change that no matter how much you rage tweet. Drink some water and touch grass.

It's important to remember when GOP Reps and Sens are yelling about the 'violent left' that they routinely tell reporters and colleagues how theyre afraid to do this or that because their own supporters routinely threaten violence agains them.

The first rule of Antifa Club is: you dd not talk about Antifa Club. The second rule of Antifa Club is: you DO NOT talk about Antifa Club....

“When was Joe Biden president?” remains the most difficult question in politics

Trump just designated “Antifa” as a terrorist organization, on par with ISIS and Al Qaeda. As a reminder, “antifa” is short for “antifascist”. They will use this lie to surveil, imprison, and kill Americans on the left. This may be our Reichstag Fire moment. Wake up. www.cnn.com/2025/09/17/p...

it is pretty funny that the first person "cancelled" after 9/11 was Bill Maher and he didn't learn a thing from that

You didn't think those concentration camps they're building are just for immigrants did you?
