Why protesting in hilarious costumes makes sense. It blows the #Fascists arguments out of the water!

To all the Americans losing their jobs and farmers losing their farms, take comfort in the fact that the people in Argentina are doing great.

Peaceful assembly isn’t an insurrection.

Storming the Capitol to hang your own vice-president and end democracy is.

Pete Hegseth announced an agreement today to build a Qatari Emiri Air Force facility at a U.S. Air Force Base in Idaho.
 
Reminder: Earlier this year, the Trump admin accepted a Boeing 747 jet as a gift from the Qatari royal family.

Sad to see #CorporateKlobuchar @amyklobuchar.bsky.social join the republicans to pass this. Proud to see @smith.senate.gov vote “NO” and stand up to the orange 🍊 🐖’s authoritarian power grab.

GOP Leaders Smear Upcoming 'No Kings' Marches as 'Hate America Rallies' by ‘Terrorists’ | Common Dreams Republican lawmakers smear upcoming "No Kings" rallies as "hate-America" events. Organizers vow peaceful protests against Trump administration.

So apparently, anyone who opposes the orange shitbag now is a “terrorist.”

A Very, Very Expensive Way to Reduce Crime The Trump administration’s National Guard deployments are highly inefficient.

“The National Guard’s mostly quiet walks through Washington, D.C., are expected to cost a little more than $200 million…”

Vought sounds layoff siren: 'The RIFs have begun' At least nine agencies appear to be affected.

Once again: if President Trump & Russ Vought decide to do more mass firings, they are CHOOSING to inflict more pain on people. “Reductions in force” are not a new power these bozos get in a shutdown.

We can’t be intimidated by these crooks.

I hope by the end of the month the only thing any news network can show of Portland is footage of masked men in body armor with automatic weapons facing down a magical army of giant, puffy animal people armed with fans and awkward dance moves.

Healthcare was the other bright factor but now the GOP has destroyed it.

I’m sure Russ Vought’s latest mass firings of federal workers will help Republican Winsome Earl-Sears in her race for VA governor in a few weeks.

Billboard: Turning Point USA announced a MAGA-approved Super Bowl halftime show to protest Bad Bunny.

I'm 64 yo, and I had never heard of Bad Bunny. But watching the crybaby MAGAt meltdown, has made me his biggest fan!
