It is not and never will be clear to everyone.

As part of our effort to raise money for the Out of the Darkness walk we are raffling off two autographed items. Tickets are sold online and will be sold at Saturday's pregame. $5 per ticket or 3 for $12. See details linked below. www.zeffy.com/en-US/ticket...

It's easy to scoff at Trump designating as a "terrorist organization" something that's not an *organization* at all. I have different view. When you declare an idea rather than an organization to be terrorism, you can declare *anyone* a terrorist. And that is what he will do. This is horrifying.

I'm telling you as a Trump biographer that the man has no intention of there being a free and fair election in 14 months. Things are accelerating—and accelerating for a reason. By the time Fall 2026 begins, Trump needs America to have no expectation whatsoever of a meaningful midterm election.

Trump isn’t sending the National Guard into Memphis to fight crime. He’s sending the guard into our cities to get Americans used to the idea of armed troops in their streets so fewer will resist a Trump dictatorship.

at the center of the efforts to destroy civil society in russia, hungary, georgia and elsewhere is the stigmatization, harassment, & criminalization of NGOs. that's what this is about, a full-on assault on democratic debate & freedoms. this is not hyperbole. it's right here.

Trump has declared war on Chicago and now his secret police are running racist ads in Edgewater. Let’s be clear: ICE isn’t welcome here. Trump isn’t welcome here. And they’re certainly not going to recruit their goons from here.

Once Donald Trump gets the citizens of this nation comfortable with the current atrocities committed under the color of law – what comes next?

I still think many Americans have no idea how bad this is going to get. I saw President Obama reposting a tepid, mealy-mouthed analysis by Ezra Klein—who's never seen a phenomenon he couldn't be 5 years late in incompetently circumscribing—and I felt like we don't have what it takes to survive this.

Neat……..

Bet they ignore everything they learn from it. No way they’re going to go against corporate Dems in any possible future elections.

Fuck 47. Nice.

Considering what MOST Americans did during slavery, Indian removal, Reconstruction, the lynching epidemic, Jim Crow era & JD Vance's futon phase... How long before MOST people recognize that America is in its fascist era?

Lots of people thought it was funny when they lied in 2017 about the size of his first inauguration. Others of us knew how serious it was and where we were going.

ICE agents are chased and forced to leave their neighborhood by LA residents

your inability to hold hate in your heart for more than one person at a time is a skill issue and you should work on it instead of being proud like this

For the rest of our lives, I mean literally until everyone reading this is in the ground, the only appropriate response to any self-described conservative American complaining about government overreach is F*** OFF

The world is a fucked up shitty mess. Tonight I was in the only place I feel ok in anymore, and I shared it with one of the best.

The STL Juju went from the Blues to the Cardinals after their playoff run ended. We can only have one good team at a time. That’s the rules.

Wow this guy seems like a real piece of shit.

If there's a masculinity crisis in America, Ground Zero is the cowardly wusses who work for ICE and HSI, covering their faces with masks, fearful of an 80-year-old congresswoman, and reeking of panic What are the consequences for a U.S. secret police? My new column www.inquirer.com/columnists/a...

This is how authoritarian state security forces behave in Turkey, China and other countries. Now America joins them.

Wait til they learn they’re going to have to pay more AND work in a factory to make it.

Tonight is the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere’s midnight ride. May his memory remind us all to resist the tyranny forming in our government.

Sitting in Old North and hearing these words from you was a privilege. I've shared this era of Boston as a historic interpreter, and I always stressed to my listeners that it was ordinary people who changed the world, not legends, because when we can relate to heroes we realize we can become them.

Ruth Ben-Ghiat: "It's not about good governance. It's about amassing power, keeping yourself safe, they need to reorganize governance around being able to commit corruption and enrich themselves from office. Those are the principles."

Maybe the speed and scale we’re seeing now is because no one did a damn thing to stop it since 2016. Everyone who should have stopped him let him get away with it all from 2016-2024, and then he was put back in power. Given the green light to do whatever he wanted.

Something I screenshotted from the beginning of a thing Jared Yates Sexton @jysexton.bsky.social published in January. As potent as ever; probably even moreso.

Yep. We can fix it. YOU can fix it. runforwhat.net
