A big part of the authoritarian playbook is war. War takes over the news. War blots out criticism. War divides a nation’s people, subjecting those against it to being called unpatriotic. War grants leaders all sorts of emergency powers. War consumes everything else. We mustn’t let this war do so.

Currently trending on X.

They clap like co-conspirators It’s surreal. Traitors totally foregoing their oaths of office…AND smiling while they betray their country. Wild

I HAVE SEEN ENOUGH. AS GOVERNOR OF THE FREE WORLD, I, GAVIN C. NEWSOM, AM OFFICIALLY BANNING "KID ROCK" FROM CALIFORNIA.

What an absolute buffoon

A great option 👇 and remember, all the psycho clips of Trump melting down will be on Bluesky in a nanosecond 😂 bsky.app/profile/meid...

Next: Board announces “Peace Prize” goes to….the ole pedo himself

But my business cards will be delivered today and I get to have brunch with my sister today. I’m alive. Trying to find the wins here people.

This @jamellebouie.net column is so good. But I repeat myself. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/18/o...

The Obama’s get a standing ovation at the NBA all star game. How I miss these two!

Good morning everyone President's Day CANCELLED WE DON'T HAVE ONE Nobody wants to celebrate Sex Predator Day

Obama: "The rogue behavior of agents of the federal government is deeply concerning and dangerous ... the sort of behavior that we've seen in authoritarian countries and we've seen in dictatorships, but we have not seen in America."

In a normal government, this results in the resignation of multiple cabinet officials (Transportation, Defense, and Homeland Security), and the closure or (at least!) radical reorg of the cartoonishly incompetent agency at the center of it: CBP. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/11/u...

If Pam Bondi was a waitress.

Because lawless ICE goons are harassing, arresting, and murdering people who are citizens, you idiot.

If you missed the exchange between @raskin.house.gov and Pam Bondi today, watch this masterful statement from him on behalf of the Epstein victims: “You are siding with the perpetrators and you are ignoring the victims. That will be your legacy.” Repost if you agree she is the worst AG in history.

I want to see this grinning, soulless ghoul in an orange jumpsuit.

Hopefully history repeats itself..

That demented “staffer” is at it again…

Bakaj: Intelligence was gathered that captured activity being conducted by someone close to the president. Gabbard was given a heads-up. She went to Susie Wiles and discussed it. When she returned to the DNI’s office, she directed that the intelligence not be distributed any further…

Here is my conclusion after sitting through Maxwell's deposition with her refusing to answer a single question about the men who raped underage girls, saying she would only do so for clemency. She must immediately be sent back to the maximum security prison where she belongs.

Why isn’t every politician, leader, prosecutor, and news channels focused on this. The President is accused with significant proof of killing and raping minors.

Bill Clinton fighting back. I like it.

🌊🌊🌊💯🎯👏👏👏

Reminder: It's not about fighting drug dealers, it's about enriching himself and his family using bribes and other illegal means.

🚨BREAKING: Someone just projected this video onto a Las Vegas building ahead of the Super Bowl, dubbing it the "Pedo Bowl" and highlighting the men who dominate the Epstein files. Spoiler alert: Donald Trump, Howard Lutnick, and Steve Bannon are the MVP lineup nobody asked for.

In which Jeffrey Epstein, who laundered money for the Russians, explains how Donald Trump was doing exactly the same thing, and how this accounts for most of his wealth.

This is really suspicious. They’re up to something. Link to thread: x.com/mattberg33/s...

What could ever be the reason?

BREAKING: surveillance footage has been released revealing the "White House staffer" that posted a blatantly racist video depicting President Obama and Michelle Obama as apes on Donald Trump's Truth Social account around midnight this morning. #DonaldTrump

Can we get Michelle Obama's documentary Becoming, streaming on Netflix, to Number 1 this weekend? Do what you can to show the Obamas how much they are loved and respected in this country and the world. Let's Give ourselves a peaceful day of silence on Trump. No attention will drive him crazy

My friend lives in this building and said it was truly terrifying. The whole building woke up to their building being broken into by federal agents all to grab some guy who’s posted about being anti facist.

Luttig: It doesn’t matter what the Supreme Court does from this point forward. For two years, the Supreme Court has authorized the absolute lawlessness and unconstitutional activity of this president.

Yes they should.

Garcia: I want to remind the American public of Stephen Miller. There's probably no single person in this government that has done more damage and more harm to people across this country than this man right here. It's our job to hold him responsible

I'm not sure this gets said enough but, the President of the USA appears to be severely mentally ill and unfit for office.

Quote from Trump just minutes ago: "The Republicans should say, we should take over the voting in at least 15 places.... The Republicans ought to nationalize the voting." In modern history, there's never been a bigger threat to our Constitution and our way of life than and his enablers.

AOC knows how to get under Trump’s skin — just mention crowd size

Alex Pretti killers: Jesus Ochoa and Raymundo Gutierrez. Renee Good killer: Jonathan Ross. All three have something major thing in common. The Trump regime openly lied about their crimes and tried to cover them up, going as far as going on TV to defame & smear the victims as terrorists.

#Trump #Epstein #EpsteinFiles

BREAKING: A U.S. official has filed a bombshell complaint accusing Tulsi Gabbard of serious wrongdoing, so explosive and deeply classified they’ve triggered months of behind-the-scenes chaos over how (or whether) Congress should even be allowed to see them, according to the WSJ.

It’s been 8 days and we still don’t know the names of the men who murdered Alex Pretti. DHS must be abolished. No ICE. No palantir surveillance police state. There’s no “fixing” a sociopathic agency designed to trample on our freedoms.
