www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025... Remind me once again who it is that is violent?

Fascism is never only in the jackboot. It hides in the quiet erasure of books, in the trembling hand that pulls a story from the shelf. Librarians know this. They fight not with weapons but with memory, and memory is the only guard against forgetting.

NEW: Some thoughts from inside a few federal agencies as the shutdown approaches. Fed employees don't know much about what's going on and want the fight that Dem leadership generally has not shown.

🚨This. Is. Madness. Do not normalize seeing heavily armed federal forces in the streets of Chicago (or anywhere). Posted on IG a few minutes ago. 1/2

Targeted attack on a dockside restaurant in North Carolina. Three dead. Suspect a former Marine sniper in Iraq and Haiti who tried to sue the US govt for “genocide against straight men by the LGBQT community.” Flags at half mast? Endless op-eds? Victims’ faces on coins? www.cnn.com/2025/09/28/u...

The Trump administration’s unauthorized disclosure of my personal records.

Oregon Governor Tina Kotek in Portland: "I will not be approving utilization of the Oregon national Guard. The President does not have the authority to deploy federal troops on State soil."

Justice Kavanaugh: “If the person is a U. S. citizen or otherwise lawfully in the United States, that individual will be free to go after the brief encounter.”

‼️ Mass killings of Ukrainians in Bucha: The Sunday Times has named 13 Russian officers responsible for war crimes. "In those 29 days in early 2022, they committed such atrocities that this Ukrainian city will forever become synonymous with war crimes," the article says.

UN: “Kids dying of starvation… what we give them is a peanut butter paste. We’ve been told we can’t bring that in because it’s a luxury.” AMANPOUR: “Seriously?”

Oregon AG Rayfield: I know for a fact, from talking to cities across Oregon, that if you pick up the phone and ask, “What could be helpful?” the answer would not be the United States military.

This is the most British thing ever

An illuminating Report from inside the war zone

Klobuchar: "When I questioned AG Bondi during her confirmation hearing, she assured me that politics would not play a role, that they would make independent decisions. That is not what this is. This is a vengeance prosecution. It is not about the law."

LOOK ALL AT THE GRAFFITI, SENATOR!!! WE MUST CALL IN THE 101ST AIRBORNE!!! THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!! #WarRavagedPortland

“Show us your warrant!” “Ma’am, you’ve been watching too many movies. We’ll show you the warrant after we’re done.” 🤔 *busts in the door with babies crying*

JD Vance should check out ChatGPT

Lying fucking traitor! #FuckTrump

Remember, the same government deploying masked agents to kidnap people off the streets and disappear them to foreign countries without due process demands you not call them fascist…or else.

History is like science and free speech. It doesn't exist for you to agree or disagree with it, it exists for you to listen to it.

AOC: "If the Government shuts down, they are going to act like it wasn't their decision; it is their decision."

Good satire is based in truth. This isn't based in truth. It is 100% true. PS. Lindsay Halligan isn't even licensed to practice law in Virginia. #abuseofpower #fascism #epsteinfiles #nokings #fubarpac

US Rep. Jasmine Crockett warned a crowd at the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation's "The only immigrant that went around snatching jobs was Elon Musk," the Dallas Democrat said Friday DC.

The meritocracy and the media that normalizes it.

The South Korean Ministry of Defense has awarded medals of merit to 11 officers for disobeying direct orders of superiors during the martial law fiasco, orders that they deemed to be contrary to the constitution and endangerment to democracy. www.chosun.com/english/nati...

A man was just chased and arrested outside of the Broadview ICE facility in Chicago. When legal observers from the National Lawyers Guild asked why, an agent threatened to arrest them too.

Trump just ordered the military into Portland, and he’s giving them the green light to use lethal force on American citizens. Authoritarianism is an abstract concept but Trump is making its impacts real and tangible. Let’s be real about it: This is the beginning of dictatorship in America.

This is a declaration of war against United States citizens

Mockler: I'm pretty tired of conservatives gaslighting about the current political environment and Donald Trump's rhetoric when all of this escalation can be traced back to his entrance into American politics.

Still no comic that's captured 2025 better than Assorted Crisis Events

If ever there was a time not to normalize Trump’s authoritarian fever dreams, this is it. This should be impeachable. ‘War ravaged’ Portland? He’s insane - & insanely power hungry. The script is set - call an imaginary group a terror group and then send in the troops.

Dementia Don Latest Stall Tactic. His puppet is refusing to swear her in. They don’t want the truth out.
