"we don't want people thinking Democrats are for open borders" I am! who gives a shit!!! my life has been immeasurably improved by the presence of immigrants in my community, regardless of their status, there is literally no downside there! why would I give a shit!!!!

Four GOP Senators. At most four Repubs in the House. Together they could stop nearly all the mad-king's rampages. They would be known to history as Profiles in Courage. They might/would lose the next election. But people have sacrificed a lot more, for a lot less.

Trump’s foreign policy is all about enriching his family & rich friends. It was his billionaire donor Ron Lauder, who has investments in Greenland, who told him to buy it. Now Trump risks the NATO alliance & war with Europe to pad his friend’s pockets. We can’t let that happen.

When I look at fascism throughout history I regularly think "this happened bc the population protested and resisted the secret police too much. I wish they had chilled out, demonstrated proper civility so as not to earn the already occurring oppression, and let the fascist lose the next election

damn -- CNN put together a video of Kristi Noem claiming ICE officers are "highly trained and skilled" and "gifted" alongside to a clip of them beating someone nearly to death in Minneapolis

Inject this into my veins. Go be a cuck on your own time. We gotta resist, general strike, support our communities, and kick everyone to the curb calling for civility and decorum. Pretty sure those didn’t defeat fascism in the 40s.

Conservatives Say Renée Good Was Brainwashed By Bible Into Loving Thy Neighbor https://theonion.com/conservatives-say-renee-good-was-brainwashed-by-bible-into-loving-thy-neighbor/

This is using your voice for the sake of good.

His 6 month old stopped breathing! HIS SIX MONTH OLD STOPPED BREATHING! A father was getting his kids out of the neighborhood because it was unsafe & ICE threw flash bangs & tear gas at his car with children & a baby inside! His 6 month old stopped breathing & all the children were hospitalized!

Ad hominem much jfc.

~50% of the people living in the US weren’t even born the last time a President invoked the Insurrection Act. And when GHWB did that in 1992, the soldiers deployed to LA were not given live ammunition.

ive seen more articles this week about how the phrase “abolish ice” could hurt dems in the midterms than ive seen articles about how paramilitary death squads terrorizing cities will hurt republicans in the midterms

once more with feeling

I mean high treason has very clear penalties the world over…

JUST NOW: Rep. @brotherjones.bsky.social arrives at the start of the new Tennessee legislative session with a huge “ABOLISH ICE” flag

Blackwater River

things off the top of my head that i can think of that conservatives have called tyranny - health care subsidies - seeing pronouns in an email - being suspended from a social media platform - pride month - baking a cake for a same sex wedding - legal rulings against donald trump - EV benchmarks

A felon who married an immigrant is telling a lot of y’all that the problems in this country all stem from felons and immigrants. But keep buying that stupid red hat that’s made in China.

A lot of people can be summed up with this

I do not like the AI scam I do not like it's stolen art spam I do not like it's owner Sam I do not like it's environmental battering ram I do not like the cranial logjam I do not like it, mother fucking goddamn #FuckAI #NoAI

it’s become clear at this point that all of the messaging from the Trump administration is targeted at room temp IQ losers who are incapable of distinguishing fact from fiction

new york city is Real America. los angeles is Real America. chicago is Real America. minneapolis is Real America. seattle, portland, detroit etc etc. sick of this framing that it's otherwise. shut the fuck up

Ordinary people are being so righteously brave in their defense of a Constitution that theoretically protects their rights, but does not protect their bodies from the government stormtroopers ripping it to shreds.

House of Un-American Activities Committee Part 2 The ReFascining

The animating force at the heart of US conservatism currently is incandescent rage at the mere idea of women's autonomy and independence. An image of a smiling woman who looks insufficiently deferential for their tastes riles them up enough to tear up the social contract.

Accurate.

The puppy killer should be thrown to the wolves for some full circle justice.

Immaculate meme

"These guys are like the Brownshirts back before WW2!" No, we're actually pretty fortunate that's not the case. The Brownshirts grew out of post-WWI Freikorps, which were groups of dead-eyed far-right WWI vets. What we have are over-armed, under-trained bullies and trash.

So the Dems are now the Rs mythical heroes? What?

The dishonesty of “conservatives” about the killing of Renee Good makes me want to quote Lincoln: “When it comes to this I should prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretence of loving liberty -- to Russia where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocrisy.”

One of the most significant differences between JD Vance and opiates is that only one ever gave his mom a moment’s pleasure.

they've got Raffi calling for regime change. something has shifted.

Surprised the ice didn’t melt the way she was cookin’

A six year old child doesn’t have a mother. All because a federal officer couldn’t control himself after a woman didn’t immediately follow his orders. What a small man. And even smaller men continue to defend his indefensible actions.

Good to know. And knowing is half the battle…

Today once again proved that everyday citizens protesting their government are braver than the titans who own the largest media corporations, run the biggest law firms and lead the most powerful technology companies.

We’ve graduated from “abolish ICE is the moderate position” to “Nuremberg trials for the Trump regime and its Gestapo is the moderate position.”

I remember people saying Sandy Hook was the last stop re: gun control, that if it didn’t happen after that event then it never would, but now I’m wondering if it might have portended something much larger in US politics: That nobody with power intended to do much about anything anymore.

In a nation ruled by supremacy and all its many sabotages of the public good, every act of repair is a defiant act. *Every* act of repair is a defiant act.

Happy Treason Day to those who celebrate

President no new wars is threatening to seize Greenland again. A day after raiding Venezuela and a week after bombing Nigeria. And MAGA is still talking about how he’s the peace president 🤦‍♂️ fucking idiots

Literally a publication for eight-year olds 40 years ago

my plan to get this country back on track consists of one bullet point: i propose we stop pretending stupid people arent stupid just because theyre loud and theres a lot of them

This is how you do it. No preamble to swear to God you don't like Maduro.

Venezuela. Greenland... Donald Trump is a warmongering, neocolonial maniac. And the rest of the United States government has not the capacity nor the courage to address that reality.
