A totalitarian state is a system where the government seeks to control nearly all aspects of public and private life. Led by a single party or dictator, it relies on repression, coercion, and censorship to secure power, in sharp contrast to democracy, where freedoms and pluralism are protected.

Yes yes yes yes!!

Tell me this was done by violent left-wingers. www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/ne...

First, Stephen Colbert. Now Jimmy Kimmel. Is it sinking in now? Do you all get it now? We now live in an authoritarian dictatorship. The United States of America as we know it is OVER for everyone.

This is my Antifa flag. It stands for democracy. Unfortunately, I currently have to fly it upside down.

This is murder, IMO. I've been wondering what ICE has been doing for people they're imprisoning who are on meds. Here's the answer.

We cannot trust anything coming out of this FBI or DOJ. They are supposed to work for us. They work for Trump.

Tragically accurate

Just a reminder that Charlie Kirk was a White Christian Nationalist. He is not a hero. He spread hate. White Christian Nationalists are not about the teachings of Christ. They’re about power. They’re the enemy of the freedom of religion, free speech and equality. #Resist #Fight #ForOurChildren

Every veteran in the country should be outraged.

Pointing out Charlie Kirk's hate speech is not hate speech. It's objective reporting. Apologize to Matthew Dowd and rehire him. A full-throated embrace of genocide is hate speech – beyond all measure. Fire Brian Kilmeade. Immediately.

🙏 we can do it!

It seems like Trump and MAGA have more to gain if Kirk’s killer is not caught, at least in the short term. It allows them to continually rail against Dems unencumbered by any facts.

You reap what you sow. Hatred begets hatred which begets violence. Unregulated guns in an atmosphere of hate cause shootings. Now, those who reject hatred and unregulated guns will be targets of this regime, not necessarily with violence, but more oppression & suspicion.

Turns out the Koreans arrested & shackled were tech workers here legally finishing a factory that will employ Americans. The ICE spectacle was a farce that embarrasses us & harms relationships. They may not be deported after all. Every roundup of “illegals” needs to be questioned

When they tell you who they are …

A recent YouGov poll shows Tom Hanks has a positive 72% popularity rating. Trump doesn't even break 40. I mean, the only people who don't like Hanks are dead inside. Think I've got something there.

SCOTUS just legalized racial profiling. They may say this is only about catching undocumented “criminals,” but it’s much worse. Now, virtually anyone can be profiled for their race, their accent, their clothing, their job. This will not stop with immigrants. They invalidated the 4th Amendment.

Secretary Kennedy is a hazard to the health of the American people.

Frankly, I have seen enough. Secretary Kennedy should be fired immediately. He's destroying the agency responsible for keeping diseases (like measles and Ebola) under control. This is deadly serious.

Trump act of ordering 8 military jets to perform a low-pass flyover during the Epstein victims' press conference is a DARVO surrogate. It's a form of gaslighting. It's an act of intimidation. It's an admission of guilt.

Yes, we sure showed our superior strength by blowing up a small boat because it allegedly carried 11 gang members and drugs. Likely a violation of international law, but, hell, it’s so MAGA that they must be having orgasms.

Trump’s greatest foreign policy accomplishment? Restarting the Cold War. Congratulations.

Under Dr. Oz, Medicare is launching a pilot program that will use AI to determine whether patients would be covered for certain procedures. Companies running the program will be paid a share of the savings from rejecting claims. Who in their right mind voted for this? No one.

Honored that Mark is now a Democracy Docket member.🙏 The force of democracy must be with us!!!🥳

I’ve heard from a couple of messaging strategists now that people shouldn’t post so much about COVID19 vaccines because it’s “divisive”. I am here to say that I do not give a damn what is popular. I will never ignore scientific evidence for the sake of expediency, and neither should anyone else.
