I Refuse to Stay Silent. Will You? Read more here.

NEW: For the last several months, I have written and spoken regularly about the rise of authoritarianism in the United States. This is not something I ever envisioned for myself — and it is certainly not something my ancestors envisioned for their great grandchildren.

Ms. Martinez’ lawyer says body cam footage shows the agent turned into HER car and yelled “do something bitch” before firing shots.

I’m. So. Tired.

I don’t just want you to pay attention to Chicago because I want you to understand our plight. I want you to see how hard people are fighting and know wtf you’re made of. We’re not just fighting for this place. This is for all of us.

That stung him. You could see it on his face.

This is why everyone should ignore Trump (completely freeze him out) and direct all presidential conversations to Miller and Vought.

They have been hiding behind Trump, while pulling the strings. Pull them out in the open and blame them for everything.

You mean these dumb fucks we said are dumb fucks turned out to be dumb fucks?

Hmmm paid for good reviews most likely

Maybe we need a No Kings Friday night as well as a No Thug Thursday, No Working Wednesday, No 47 Taco Tuesday , No Melania Shopping Monday. Make it a week of silent financial protest and on Sunday we all stay home, no shopping or eating out.

No more pretext at all really, is there!

It appears as though Miller, Hegseth & Vought have convinced Trump that NOW is the time to go full bore dictatorship . . .

They likely want martial law in place to stop Oct 18th No Kings Day - they’re afraid of the momentum of the resistance maybe? 😔

Many people are asking, with tears in their eyes, ‘Sir, why haven’t you closed your hotel in the hellhole of Chicago? Money can’t be more important to you than lives ….. ‘.

I just heard the Illinois national guard told Trump there was nothing on the ground to warrant them coming and clearly not to come. If true that’s a first big pushback from the military and huge, every state Guard leader should do the same!

ICE is made up of men who have failed the human test and have nothing of value to offer this nation.

Adults with decency and options and possibilities don’t do this shit.

There it is

We’re in a moment now where it would be worth people taking three hours to watch Gandhi, particularly the scene of the salt march. There is value to making the brutality of your opponent so plain as day that no one can argue with it. The clarity of that brought down an empire

The thing is, child sex abuse plays a big part in various types of 'traditional marriages' some of those right-wing folks are always going on about. 🤷

So many! It’s always about power with these creeps

Oh look the party that screams “family values” every five minutes is silent when one of their megachurch darlings pleads guilty to child sex abuse. But they’ll trip over themselves to ban books and attack drag shows. Tells you everything you need to know.

Buried in the polls, with every American screaming for the Epstein files, the walls are closing in on Tangerine Palpatine.

Sending troops to every city you can in a desperate attempt to make martial law happen is not strength. It’s the last gasp of a dying regime.

Stay Safe !!

bingo

Meiselas: Trump claimed that he and the leaders of the Republican Party were speaking with Democrats. Is he being truthful, or is he lying?

Jeffries: Well, as far as I can tell, that’s a stone-cold lie

The entire country is walking on eggshells because a madman is hallucinating about crime sprees and burning cities.

THE CHICKENS ARE FINALLY COMING HOME TO ROOST

Ryan Walters is out & the investigation floodgates just opened. The Oklahoma AG launched a full audit of Walters’ entire tenure as Superintendent, and it’s about damn time.

Also the education dept website’s being scrubbed of his culture-war nonsense.

JUST IN: Chicago journalistsa re suing DHS and ICE over force used against reporters:

Trump’s order to deploy Texas National Guard troops to Chicago is illegal, immoral, and must be stopped by the courts. ICE is already wreaking havoc in our communities. Let’s call this what it is: an invasion by out-of-state troops coming here only with the purpose of tormenting Chicagoans.
