β€˜We’ve Got to Kill and Kill and Kill’ | Dan Kaufman As Francisco Franco’s reputation grows on the far right, a new history of his regime reminds us of its unrelenting violence toward Jews.

The historic background for Trump's attacks on and demands of Spain's current government in Spain is the US Right's longtime love affair with Franco's fascism's, despite or due to his murderous brutality, a fan club spearheaded by William F. Buckley. More here: www.nybooks.com/articles/202...

#BlueSkyVets What if Trump orders ICE ointo the streets of Iran to suppress β€œanarchist” unrest.

ICE is a domestic law enforcement agency, barring its practical and diplomatic ramifications it would be interesting to see how β€˜hard’ they really are.

#SendICE to Iran!

She doesn’t raise her voice!
She raises accountability!

Letitia James walked into rooms full of powerful men who thought they were untouchable and proved they weren’t!

Strong women don’t need permission!
They need evidence!
And she brought receipts!

In other words, while many people are reeling from the depravity of the GOP and the Dems' ghastly cowardice, the Third Way (funded by the billionaires who give dough to Trump) is rallying to smash the forces defending what we should value.

Trump is lying.

I serve on the Intel & Armed Services Committees.

There’s no intelligence that Iran posed an imminent threat to the U.S. or the American people.

Exactly. First you let Platner in the door, then you get Neera Tanden retweeting Nick Fuentes, and then your big tent is a fucking Nazi hangout.

Happening now in Chicago's federal plaza:

A rally is underway in solidarity with trans people in Kansas whose drivers' licenses were suddenly invalidated last week, due to the enactment of a new state law that requires a person's gender on their license to match their assigned sex at birth.

BREAKING: Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney just chastised the U.S. and Israel on the way they went to war with Iran.

"The United States and Israel have acted without engaging the United Nations or consulting allies, including Canada."

No Democrat should vote for a single penny of a military appropriation for the Iran War until they first get to vote on a Declaration of War.

Exvangelical here, and this is one reason. This is some absolutely insane crap that the Christofascists are pushing. It's them thinking they're somehow important enough to be tools of God's plan when they're just tools with no compunction about burning the world for their own delusions.

One thing that I've been meaning to say for some time is that it's time we recognized that the Pod Save America guys are not left or even liberal.

They are hard core centrists, and they believe that the way back for Dems is by catering to white men.

New data shows how MASSIVE the US Resistance truly is.
YouTube video by Parkrose Permaculture New data shows how MASSIVE the US Resistance truly is.

Don't underestimate the resistance, and dont rely on corporate media to learn about it. Our work monkeywrenches their greed, so they're doing their best to suppress news about the 40K protests we've already had.

And don't stop.

This is one of the sickest things I've ever heard. It's capitalism gone mad and a sure indicator of a decadant society in steep decline, one that needs a serious powerwashing to get the amoral evil out, before it consumes all of us.
