“Violence is not the cause of Trump and Miller’s desire to use state power to crush their opposition. It is the pretext for which they transparently long.”

Absolutely.

Journalist Edward R. Murrow used his platform on CBS to criticize the witch hunts led by Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s.

This is what real journalism should do — hold power to account, not capitulate to it.

We may be hours away from him trying this. He’s still in the Epstein Files.

Every day I’ve been getting angrier when I think about how maga, the so called alpha male bros, always punch down at people who are less fortunate or struggling.

This isn’t manliness. It’s cowardly, it’s shameful, and it makes you look like a tiny little douche face

Everything Trump is doing now is a preamble for his regime's real goal: to invoke the Insurrection Act.

I don’t want to unduly alarm you, but you need to be aware of this imminent danger. It’s unfolding very rapidly. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/trumps-plan

The antifa handbooks are called The U.S. Constitution and The Bill of Rights.

It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

You can vote for whomever in the general election. In my state, for the primary (to select each party’s candidate for the general), you choose which party’s ballot to vote (open primary). In some states, you can only vote the ballot of the party to which you’re registered (closed primary).

Miller, basically: "How dare you evil, America-hating communist antifa insurrectionist domestic terrorists call us bad names. And if you scumbag cockroach enemies of the state DO call us bad names, any violence that occurs anywhere in the country is your fault."

Exhibit 1: Judges inability to rule in accordance with the times!

Perry: "If I were the government, I might strongly consider taking a pause on this until Thursday, so that we are not in a position where we are doing a full-fledged hearing with whatever has happened."

“Oral arguments set for Thursday to decide whether to close the barn door. Horse is set to depart on Tuesday.”

Not good.

These disconnects always reveal how the point of algorithmic culture, recommender algorithms, and now “AI”, isn’t to give you agency or help you find more of what you want; it’s to influence your behavior and attitudes towards what the people running the algorithms want. Programmable people.

Nice. The hours your first amendment rights are valid. Cool country. Nice constitution.

the way the gop and fox news talk about immigrants and trans people is identical to how nazi germany talked about jewish people.

YES!!!

We can’t out-Republican Republicans, nor should we want to.

Democrats need to say what they believe — and actually believe in something.

Last week Jesse Watters spoke to man named Eric who claimed he was formerly a member of antifa. Two years ago Watters interviewed Ramon "Mundo" Mendoza, a former Mexican Mafia member. Some folks thought the men looked similar. This is a side by side comparison. 🤷‍♀️

Yep.

Sounds like Republicans ought to get all the Republicans who form the Republican majorities in the Republican-led House and the Republican-led Senate together to pass the budget that Republicans wrote with the Republican White House and that Republicans now insist absolutely must be passed.

Oh wow, those last few sentences 👀

A better investigation and headline would be "How Some Multi-Billion Dollar Corporations and Billionaires Pay $0 in Taxes, Exploiting the Country that Made Them."

Chicago priest Father Michael Pfleger: "The state of emergency is in AMERICA, not Chicago. It's birthed from this president and his admin's reign of terror."

Harmeet Dhillon (DOJ) publicly targeted this judge on Twitter a couple weeks ago.

Still waiting for it to trickle down...
