Hey @BasedMikeLee, authoritarianism and fascism suck too. And they’re profoundly unAmerican too. Yet you embrace them.

"Man, I Am Not Okay." For a lot of Americans, those words feel painfully honest. Let's turn away from what divides us and remember that we're all human. Listen to Our Anthem here: www.youtube.com/watch #HopeNotFear #ChooseHope #BridgeTheDivide #America

This week's story on my sci-fi audio fiction podcast Auditory Anthology is Rabbits Have Long Ears by Lawrence F Willard. An interstellar exploration crew mistakes Earth for a world of ferocious, weapon-wielding giants. Listen to the whole story: https://dwarf.ly/IEOYC

I don’t care. I don’t care what Trump will say today. Bcuz it doesn’t matter what Trump says bcuz it never matters what Trump says bcuz Trump ALWAYS lies. Always. So…let’s enjoy our 250th, and let’s not pay any attention this weekend to anything that pathological liar says.

I'm so goddamn sick of Republican elected officials getting away with hiding their illnesses from the rest of us.

This is a country afraid to deal with mental illness. We treat physical illness as something that deserves care, treatment, and support. Mental illness should be no different. Some people need constant care. Some people need long-term support. And yes, government has a role in helping provide it.

A Libertarian & A Socialist Walk Into A Bar, Part 8: My younger socialist friend and I chatted again this week, focused especially on the problems of homelessness, addiction, and mental health, what to do, what not to do, what if anything government should do. We agreed that letting these folks…

A citizen had her phone ripped from her hand by an out-of-control ICE agent. PAXIS.app confirms: you have a First Amendment right to film ICE in public. Say: “I do not consent to seizure, search, or deletion.” Get PAXIS to immigrants and allies: gofundme.com/f/PAXIS

I joined @velshi last night, and for the umpteenth time, I called Donald Trump a traitor to this country. I mean, what the hell do you call someone who attacks and tries to destroy our elections? Someone who does not accept election results when he loses? Have a watch.👇

I gotta admit, it still slays me that there are folks out there who call me a “leftist.” Tell that to all the leftists out there who scream at me every day that I’m still MAGA. No matter, it is what it is, hey @bapruger77, have a great weekend. Happy 250th to you & yours.

We asked PAXIS.app about Stephen Miller’s immigration history. He is American because of birthright citizenship. His family came fleeing persecution, then used the family-based system he sneers at as “chain migration.” PAXIS helps immigrants navigate a system built to confuse: gofundme.com/f/PAXIS

"Trump is America’s enemy." Agree 1000% that Traitor Trump is not only a clear & present danger to national security AND world peace but is also Enemy of the State #1. That Trump isn't already behind bars is a national disgrace and int'l embarrassment. He should've been arrested on Jan 6, 2021.

A wee bit of hope, a boatload of courage, and a horse named Linus. Pause, reflect, and enjoy the weekend.👇 open.substack.com/pub/socialco...

In addition to ALL the other bad he’s doing, Trump is making the American people less safe. He’s hollowing out our Justice Department, our intelligence community, & the FBI. He’s getting rid of people who protect our national security. Trump is America’s enemy.👇 www.mediaite.com/media/tv/bre...

I don’t get, and I don’t understand saran wrap. I get pissed off whenever I use saran wrap, and it always turns into a big, wadded up mess. I just don’t get saran wrap.

And just like that, Republicans have no problem with a sitting president making billions in office on crypto scams, from foreign governments and oligarchs, and industries directly impacted by his orders, policies and regulations.

Monticello spent decades working to tell a more full and honest story about Jefferson and slavery. Then the right wing trolls came for them, and the institutional response was…not great. prospect.org/2026/07/02/w...

Trump makes out like a bandit, and all his supporters lose a whole bunch of money on Trump’s coin. Donald Trump, in a nutshell.

@walshfreedom.bsky.social tells @velshi.com that Trump's attack on our elections makes him a traitor

The obvious fact that Trump is a criminal shouldn’t make us think he’s not ideological and is therefore not a fascist. Fascism is where crime and politics meet. He’s multitasking.

You can literally pick 12 random people at a truck stop in WV and each one of them would be able to run a better fair.

@walshfreedom.bsky.social I agree with you, tRUMP is a TRAITOR!!!!

Coming up on the @11thhourmsnow.bsky.social with @velshi.com at 11pm ET. Tune in.

Fuck no. He’s not “tone deaf” because he’s humanly incapable of caring about anything or anyone but himself. IT SHOWS HOW CORRUPT HE IS.👇 www.mediaite.com/media/tv/fox...

A Texas restaurant used PAXIS to protect staff from ICE: marked kitchens, offices, storage, rear halls, “PRIVATE AREA,” moved rosters and schedules out of public view, and trained staff to say: “We do not consent to private-area entry,” PAXIS is free. Help share it: gofundme.com/f/PAXIS

Trump has weaponized government to go after his perceived political enemies. And now he’s going after nonpartisan groups simply trying to register new voters. Today’s show.👇 stopgovernmentcensorship.org podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Hey American People, Please Wise Up. Trump Doesn’t Give A Damn About You: From the moment he was sworn in, he’s been stuffing his pockets with money and his family has been stuffing their pockets with money…to the tune of billions. We’ve never seen anything like it. He singlehandedly fucked up the…

Jeanine Box-o-Wine Pirro right now doing a press conference to justify why her office has indicted three-time U.S. Olympian, David Hearn, for destruction of federal property. Per Pirro: Hearn “ripped a piece of recently installed sealant on the bottom of the Refecting Pool...He damaged the pool!!!"

I'm not saying it's cause and effect, but I'm also not not saying it. Either way, the manufacturing revival never came.

INCREDIBLE SCENES ON FOX as there is LITERALLY NOT A SOUL at Trump's fair, which has now been open for 15 minutes

Today's NYT jobs report coverage (left) compared to exactly 2 years ago under Biden (right). Notice the numbers.

225,000 listens. People are done pretending everything's fine — and done staying quiet about democracy. Press play 👇 www.youtube.com/watch @walshfreedom.bsky.social #ProtestSong #SongsOfDemocracy #AmericanFolk

For my former political party, it’s all about keeping brown and black people out of this country. Period. That’s the sad truth. That’s behind everything they’re doing on immigration. My meltdown.👇 open.substack.com/pub/socialco...

I care that the president is a crook. I'll bet you care too.

To work for Trump is to lie like Trump.
