You mean the Lutheran Pastor who was executed by the Nazis for vocally opposing Hitler? Yes. Please. We need more Americans willing to call fascists evil no matter the cost. FFS, they have no clue.

HERE'S YOUR PHOTO! How fitting that this ended with yet another shameful cover-up, though. Perfectly, perfectly Trumpian.

Maybe if they start playing strip tease music, they will move faster. Everyone in the crowd needs to play this and start screaming, "Take it off"! youtube.com/watch?v=Y2CW...

YES. WOW!! Thank you, @petebuttigieg.bsky.social advocating for ADDING SEATS to the Supreme Court because term limits don't go far enough. THIS is what will get my vote in 2028. No good law passed will survive this rogue Supreme Court.

What the everloving hell? Christ on a cracker, I'm so tired of this crap...

Wow.. nerves of steel

Yes, because it's absolutely impossible that a city that's only 18.7% Republican wouldn't vote for the Republican candidate

Just north of Seattle when the clouds started to clear.

I'm pretty sure that by telling the American consumer to 'get ready' for dire conditions what he's really saying is that we should all be uploading '101 recipes for Soylent Green' onto our phones while there's still time to do so.

🚨NEWS: FBI records obtained through a Judicial Watch lawsuit reveal that a Butler County Sheriff’s deputy exchanged two emails with Trump shooter Thomas Crooks before the July 13, 2024 assassination attempt. The records remain heavily redacted, concealing the nature of the communications.

It's really hard to overstate how much most of the ruling class looks down on any lower-paid work as "low-skilled" regardless of how much skill and process knowledge is involved.

In case you're curious of what I was quote posting, the guy already blocked me so I guess Canadian Resistance really didn't want an American's opinion. Luckily, knowing he may be a troll, I already took a screenshot.

Are you stating an opinion? Or, are you asking a question wanting honest feedback? If the latter, perhaps if you allow everyone to respond except for a select few, who you already follow, you would gain some insight. -signed the American Resistance

I just saw They Live, a funny little John Carpenter movie in the 80's about aliens who started taking over the world. In that movie which was set in current time (the 80s) there's a scene where in a gala the leader is telling them they should have full control of the world in 2025. Coincidence?

Yes, there will be elections. No, they will not be free & fair. No, the Democrats winning them will not vindicate the claims of those who told us we were overly alarmist when we said the elections were not going to be free & fair.

This looks awesome. #metalsky

Our maple tree, which we affectionately call Miss Maple is leafing out to her full glory.

“The notion that everyone deserves equal access to the ballot, that everyone deserves equal access to elections, that one person ought to mean one vote, and that there ought to be some measure of political equality has never really sat well with the political right in this country."

Elena Kagan Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States

The short answer? Money. The long answer? The ruling class of the ultra wealthy has decided that there are too many of us and they want to 'cull the herd' down a bit to a smaller, more easily controlled, population. They believe that AI and robots can replace most of us; we're superfluous to them.

The fact that this isn't the most explosive (pun unintended) story on this site right now tells you that we are overloaded with too much news right now. General reportedly blocked Trump from using nuclear codes share.google/at58KrRuXnCi...

For the sake of argument, let's assume that the 2024 election were fair and without any dirty tricks or shenanigans. Even with that, less than a quarter of Americans voted for Trump. Those people, without a doubt, need to be held accountable for the choices they made. 1/2

Huge anti-Trump NO KINGS protest in Seattle ❤

Took a day off from work and went to my favorite brunch place. Shout out to Tweets in Bow/Edison. Happy Friday to those who voted and didn't vote for fascism!

Yeah, that tracks. When all of this is behind us and kids are learning about this time period in their history books ICE will be know as the enforcement/abduction branch of the international child sex trafficking criminal organization that is presently masquerading as our federal government.

The whole thread is peak dry humor; I love it. Happy St. Brigid's day to those who partake.

The moon is sporting a halo tonight.

So that means that Republicans are now ok with expanding Supreme Courts? Duly noted for the next time there's a Democrat in the White House. No more of their faux outrage and 'rules for thee, but none for me'.

Remember to email and/or call your representatives today. Below is what I just sent to my own. Words are in alt text if you want to use any of it.

Fuck around and find out indeed! I like it.

Interesting. This is the general who was in charge of all of the US militaries special operation groups (ie: JSOC) up until his retirement in 2019. He has been on the civilian SpecOpps Warrior Foundation board of directors since 2019 when he retired. He is clearly not happy with the present Trump /1

Funny/not funny because it's true. I live rural and many of my neighbors fly Gadsden flags. Wondering what they're thinking this morning now that the 2A apparently no longer applies according to the Trump regime. The only people 'coming for your guns' are the Republicans that you voted for.

I made a cake for Keith Porter, Renee Good and Alex Pretti. Not very good decorating and I ran out of frosting but the colorful sides represent their lives and the top with silver, white, gray and black with white and gray stars represent their abrupt end. May they rest in peace.

He would have made a good vice president; but, that ship has sailed. Now, he will be the point of the spear leading the Democratic states in their resistance against the tyranny of the Trump regime. We will prevail, I have no doubt, but the cost will be high; very high.

Just a reminder to make sure that your elected representatives in DC know where you stand regarding what's happening in Minneapolis and elsewhere right now. It only takes a minute to write and if enough of us raise our voices that can't ignore us; at least not if they want to keep their cushy jobs.

For anyone who works in journalism and wonders what to do in the face of increasing pressure from the Trump regime to 'comply in advance', here is your answer. To quote John Oliver, when confronted by bullies and tyrants the only words that you need are, "fuck you, make me".

Asking who stole Scott Jennings soul is implying that there was anything of value to be taken in the first place. As far as I can tell, he was already an empty husk of a human being into which the rich and powerful insert money and then lies and bullshit come out of the other end.

McSweeneys, once again, hitting the nail right on it's head.

Read the entire thread. This can't be repeated enough; especially for the folks who are already trying to surrender before the battle really gets going. None of this will be easy, or painless, but what we do, and don't do, matters. Do not comply in advance; fight as if your life depends on it.

Yep, 'canceling elections' is just not a thing. We have never canceled a national election in this country due to a war or any other reason. We even had a national election in 1864, during the Civil War. If we can do it then than we can certainly do it now; no matter how much Trump doesn't want to.

You may think that you're cool, but you'll never be "young Iranian woman lights a cigarette with a burning photo of Khamenei" cool. Great photo.

So it's official then, the FBI has taken control of the murder investigation of Renee Good and is trying to lock local state law enforcement out of the case. They're going to slow walk this and hope that folks forget about it (we won't). At some point, the FBI will exonerate ICE of wrongdoing.

Rest in power Renee; you will be remembered. We will hold the people who allowed this to happen to you to account. It may not happen today, it may not happen tomorrow; but it will happen soon.

As someone who does this exact sort of volunteer work this hits very close to home. I'm struggling very hard to say something constructive which won't get me kicked off of this site. I'm just going to take a break, listen to some punk rock, and scream a bit. Stay safe out there folks.

Laws are only powerful if people believe in laws.To make laws believable, you need consequences for breaking laws. If consequences are not brought, the rule of law becomes weaker & more people start to not believe in them. They are doing this purposefully to draw us towards chaos, anarchy & weakness

Never forget.

To paraphrase Stafford Beer, There is no point in claiming that the purpose of a system is to do what it constantly fails to do; the purpose of a system is what it does. Clearly, our system is functioning exactly as it was designed to. People die, societies are destroyed and the rich get richer.

Do not allow yourself to be distracted. Yes, Trump starting illegal wars is horrible but we need to remain focused on the Epstein files. They underpin everything; if we can bring those into the light of day the entire house of cards will collapse. Do not forget, do not forgive.
