Malignant narcissism infused with insanity and delusions of grandeur is a horrific cocktail that America might not survive. 😳👇

She told ICE Gestapo ✊🏼💙! #iceout

AOC understands the assignment.

This article does a good job at showing ways to recognize coded imagery and language used by fascists if you don’t spend much time looking at it.

Mike Johnson has now had the House adjourned for 72 of the last 84 days. Epstein Shutdown.

Oh, now they are sending subpoenas to nonprofits critical thinking of OpenAI asking for donors lists alleging they are working with Musk. Chilling speech critical of their company.

ARIZONA AG: “.. Arizona’s right to a full delegation, and the right of the residents of CD 7 to representation from the person they recently voted for, are not up for debate ..” @politico.com #AZ07 www.politico.com/live-updates...

The wannabe dictator and his fascist cabal think they’re a tidal wave, crashing to wash everything away. But they’re just rough waves on the shore — lots of menacing noise and foam. The real tide is us steady and rising. NoKings Saturday, October 18 www.nokings.org#map

This new effort in Montana could serve as an important notice that the era of big money in politics can and must draw to an end. @nycjayjay.bsky.social

Clearly, with the GOP, hindsight is deaf, dumb, and blind.

GOP’s labor market policy is market protectionism for white men.

When parents get rightfully upset about Turning Point USA bringing clubs into high schools across the country, it’s because the people that were caught in that young Republicans chat are the same people who will join a TP USA chapter in high school.

Yeah, that is a tear gas canister being fired toward the retreating couple holding the baby

This is very well written and extremely troubling and you should take some time to read it.

Asked my students yesterday if they'd heard about the protests happening on Saturday. These folks are generally well-informed and interested in politics. Only 20% said they'd even heard of the No Kings protests. How did the organizers fail to get on the radar of these 18-22 year olds?

What could be worse than screaming at a Capitol police officer?

One day Republicans have No Kings as Antifa terrorists, the next day it is blue haired animals. I guess demonizing, dehumanizing, and vilifying ordinary Americans peaceful protesting is the brand now. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Almost like we founded the entire country on opposing this exact sentence.

AZ AG Mayes: If I have to, I’ll take Speaker Johnson to court. There's no legitimate reason for him to refuse to swear her in right now. And it's not fair for Mike Johnson to be holding the state of Arizona hostage because he doesn't want to release the Epstein files.

Guess we have to go with “Kings”, then? 🤡

We are living in one of the stupidest times in history.

ICE tactics intensify despite disturbing videos surfacing across the U.S. Many of the videos are difficult to watch, but it is also important to bear witness to what is happening to human beings on the streets of America. www.msnbc.com/top-stories/...

To be clear: LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government. The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency. This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.

Talk about indoctrination…

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples? HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

A government that targets citizens against fascism and dictatorships, isn’t a government worth keeping.

"How to Stand Up to a Dictator" author Maria Ressa explains how social media companies used the Philippines as a testing ground for mass manipulation before employing their tactics in the U.S. #cdnpoli

Hate really does shorten your life expectancy!

Netanyahu announces Israel will not abide by the terms of facilitating humanitarian aid, despite it being a key ceasefire agreement clause. Didn't take long, did it?

So far SCOTUS has been dismantling everything in the 14th Amendment bit by bit. It's almost like they want to redo the Civil War. "Hell-bent" is a legitimate phrase.

Speaker Johnson, you ready to swear me in?

🔥BREAKING: Democrats march to Speaker Mike Johnson’s office demanding he swear in Arizona Congresswoman Adelita Grijalva! Arizona’s 7th District deserves a voice in Congress. 🚫 No Taxation Without Representation! #ReleaseTheTrumpEpsteinFiles #SwearInAdelitaGrijalva

@psychopete.bsky.social He's one of the hardest-working people I've ever met here on Bluesky! Pete is focused, Pete is driven, and his patriotism seems endless! If you want to know what YOU can do to be part of the revolution, follow Pete! 👊🏼🚫🤴

Hey Mikey, do your job. Swear in Adelita Grijalva and release the damn Epstein files! Thanks to the always brilliant Kris.and.Dave IG

“Swear her in! Swear her in!” #TrumpEpsteinCoverup

The official government account for DHS appears to be run by far-right trolls deliberately trying to provoke a response by using a term openly associated with ethnic cleansing. They will attack anyone who points this out and express faux outrage at the suggestion. They know what they are doing.

Do not threaten the GOP. It no longer works on them. They have no shame and feel protected. Instead DO file a lawsuit. Do not bother with pomp and circumstance of threatening. It does not work. Only hitting them in their wallets has any effect on them.

NEW: Adrian Fontes has CERTIFIED the results of the AZ-07 election of Adelita Grijalva. Mike Johnson is OUT of EXCUSES and should swear her in.

Adelita Grijalva won her Congressional race fair and square THREE WEEKS ago. Mike Johnson’s refusal to seat her is an absolute disgrace. Seat her now. www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...

While some of these "media" outlets shouldn't even exist, I'm glad that they are doing this. It slows down Project 2025 even more. Have you checked the progress of the Christian nationalist plan to take over the U.S. recently? Here's the link- www.project2025.observer/en

If after viewing this map it seems that conservatism causes poverty, illness, misery and death you would be completely correct.
