All my life growing up in America I’ve heard from a certain kind of dude who says he’s constantly preparing to resist exactly this kind of thing and now those same dudes are the ones making it possible.
Sad to see so many people lionizing Charlie Kirk as a devoted, loving Christian.
His murder is despicable and vile, but that doesn’t erase the incalculable harm he has done to people of color, to women, to immigrants, to queer people, as well as to the minds of young white men.
He is the victim of unfathomable violence, he is a father and husband taken too soon by an inhumane act of hatred, he is someone who did not deserve to die, but he is not a Christian martyr.
Apparently Bill Burr noticed that his twitter account got flagged after making fun of the "twitter guy" so obviously he had something to say about it 🤣🔥
Elon Musk spent $290 million to buy our government to be the shadow President, and is spending $400 million buying his own trucks — $110 million profit.
Are you finally starting to understand why activists fought so hard to end dark and corporate money in politics?
BREAKING: House Republicans propose the following:
$4,500,000,000,000 in tax cuts to the richest people in America
$1,500,000,000,000 in spending cuts to things that make life better for everyone else
—
$3,000,000,000,000 added to the debt
But you owned the libs, right?
If you’re feeling despair, I completely understand.
But Trump’s second term is already exposing a reality that's been hidden from many Americans: the raw, stinking power of the American oligarchy.
I’m hopeful that America will see this reality for what it is and respond to it.
In 2012, when I was the US ambassador to Russia, Putin shut down USAID inside Russia. Why? Because their work supported free markets, democracy, human rights —ie causes that threatened Putins dictatorship. Shutting down USAID is exactly what autocrats all over the world want.
Please read this statement from the family of Rebecca Lobach. Read every damn word. And then share it with anyone you know who still cheers on this sorry excuse for a President.
The President of the United States, the Vice President and the Secretary of Defense claimed, without evidence, that this accomplished warrior was only in the pilot’s seat because of “DEI”.
She was in the top 20% of cadets nationwide—and it’s pathetic and disgusting that her family had to issue this statement to the country to justify her seat even in her death because the leaders she served under blamed her for the accident in front of the White House press corps within 12 hours of the crash on baseless speculation that she was unqualified because she was a woman.
If you’re an American—or even if you’re just a decent person—this should make you burn.
#BREAKING: Legendary #Maddow: "Tonight, what they are trying to do in Washington DC and at DOJ and at the FBI is something that I think inarguably, is WORSE than that [Nixon's Saturday Night Massacre], because what they are trying to do tonight is not trying to stop an active investigation. Tonight, they are seeking revenge for law enforcement personnel who participated in a previous investigation that is now over."
Hearing that Trump is about to double down on the constitutional crisis. A President cannot eliminate an appropriated federal agency by executive order. That’s what a despot - who wants to steal the taxpayers money to enrich his billionaire cabal - does.
Watch USAID tonight.
