Amazing fact: even AFTER adding a record number of jobs in @POTUS' first 15 months, the US added an additional 1m jobs the past three months.
1m jobs in a quarter:
That never happened, not even once, under ANY of POTUS' predecessors in the past 22 years.
People need to stop comparing the Evangelical Republican MAGA movement to the Taliban or to Islam or to Muslims.
This is an entirely specific white American theocratic sickness that could only happen here. They are sociopathic and barbaric in ways that are completely unique.
Chile got out from under an actual dictator using peaceful means. It was much worse in Chile than here.
The Chileans got out when enough people joined together to oppose authoritarianism.
Here's the story of what happened, but first, my personal connection . . .

The reason why “going high when they go low,” as noble as it sounds, does not always work is because it lacks the recognition that there are personalities and levels of development where you need to meet them where they are (you do not go high with a toddler, for instance).
As a friend of mine says: “When they go low, that’s where you meet ‘em, greet ’em, and defeat ’em.” As long as we fail to do this, they will keep going lower.
The Supreme Court has gone rogue. We are in a full-blown Constitutional crisis. Congress must act. And we must pressure Congress to act, while it still can. #TheMajority
@jenbrea I found this thread when looking for info about fingerprints in ME/CFS patients. I've noticed the vertical & some horizontal lines on my fingerprints, ridges on my nails, & disappearance of lunulae on left hand nails. Right hand seems to still have lunulae. EBV diagnosed in 2018.

The hypocrisy of the Trump thuggery can be epitomized by a seditious rioter beating a police officer at the Capitol with an American flag. It was never about the flag, or “blue lives matter.” These were mere props in a movement fueled by power, injustice, and racism.
@therainjackson @ChaossCorp @ConorLambPA I've seen that he would NOT lose his SS protection - "Regardlesss of what Congress decides, one perk Trump will get to keep is his Secret Service detail—a 2013 amendment to the law guaranteed lifetime protection, even to presidents removed from office." - https://t.co/csYHRQlEzD
The inauguration should be brief, in an undisclosed location, filmed and replayed for the Americans once it’s done. We should not normalize the moment, as it whitewashes the severity and, most importantly, it’s not safe to do anything that could possibly be a terrorism target.
Some people ask: Why would you impeach and convict a president who has only a few days left in office? The answer: Precedent. It must be made clear that no president, now or in the future, can lead an insurrection against the U.S. government.
