When professors at ASU Honors College signed a letter distancing themselves from a Kirk speech the school sponsored, Kirk placed them on TPUSA’s Professor Watchlist and ushered in a wave of threats against them. Dennis Prager called for their firing. This is what Kirk means by being β€œtreated well.”

The Democrats are not capable of any real resistance to the creep of fascism in America. Every single Democrat should have got up and walked out when Rep Al Green, an elderly black man, was removed for speaking out against Trump. But no, they sat there, doing nothing.

Aside from the obvious direct harm, what's so irritating is that a handful of spoiled ignorant assholes are breaking things that we all built together. They weren't content to own almost everything, they had to wreck what little they didn't own. It's vandalism on a mass scale and has to be punished

blood of people we’ve colonized, and they always have been. And we’ve always justified because they aren’t white. Our very existence as we know it depends on living off the spoils of our empire. We have damned so many BIPOC countries to an unending apocalypse.

To be super clear I’m Ukrainian-American and have a personal connection to these horrors. My heart shatters for Ukraine but it is shameful beyond comprehension to continue whistling past any kind of reckoning for the fact that the wheels of America only turn because they are greased by the

their people so important to us. The US has been doing this to Southwest Asian, South American, and African countries our whole history and if we’d been actually listening to the victims of US imperialism we’d have known this long ago.

beyond the pale, but it’s actually nothing new for our foreign policy. Trump is just being more obvious about it. And leftist white people, who will never be fully aware of how deep our programmed liberalism goes, are still not realizing how much Ukraine’s whiteness is making the suffering of

I’m as disgusted by the Oval Office fight and our Ukrainian relations as everyone else but it feels like a good time to remind everyone that the US has a long history of propping up foreign dictators and our β€œprotection” has always been an extortion racket. Trump and Vance’s conduct and actions are

There has been a lot of chatter today about Zelenskyy's meeting with Trump, some regarding this moment when White House correspondent Brian Glenn asked if the Ukrainian president plans to wear a suit. I want to address idea in this thread. 🧡

People are gonna say "well watch what you say- why were they discussing that stuff anyway?" and we need to be clear that a) Rufo is lying about the contents of the chats and b) it's irrelevant because as long as people willing to lie about us have power we are not in control of what happens to us.

Please understand me when I say that you cannot talk yourself out of criminal charges. You can, however, talk yourself into them.

"I invoke my rights to silence and counsel and will not answer questions without my attorney present" is the ONLY thing you should EVER say to a police officer, EVER.

To those who thinks this is nonsense gibberish, it is, but it’s also what far right DOGE sycophants are claiming they’re finding amongst the people being fired and having their rights stripped away to further justify dehumanizing them amongst their base.

Despite having watched a ton of movies from both eras… that lone data point had a catastrophic impact on my comprehension of film and fashion eras lmao. Looking back this was early evidence of something being lil unusual in my brain for sure

Also the Grease thing was that I saw it when I was old enough to understand poodle skirts = 50’s, but not old enough to realize that live-action movies could be set in past time periods, so it wasn’t until I was like 8 that I realize that Grease was not actually made in 1959.

This song was the music equivalent of Grease for me because my child brain thought that since the song was about 1969 it must have been made in 1969, so then whenever I heard a song with that same 80’s rock sound on the radio, I assumed it was from the 60’s

foodnotbombs.southphilly IG post caption that reads:

β€œyou do not have to perfect your theory before you act. you do not need perfect orthodoxy with everyone you meet. the things you do together will change you both.

you do not need to have read a particular book to understand that hungry people need food, that unsheltered people need homes, or that care and access to basic needs are the right of every living person.

you do not need lived experience to make community with people who live in addiction or with disability or mental illness or any other state of being. but you should listen to what people with these experiences say they need.

it doesn't cost money to empathize. and it's free to act on that empathy at any time.
the only barrier to change is the inaction of people who know better. mutual aid isn't a luxury to give or receive. it's easy and it sustains. dm us to find out more.”

Hegseth Fires Military’s Top JAG Lawyers in Pursuit of β€˜Warrior Ethos’ The defense secretary has repeatedly derided the military lawyers for war crime prosecutions and battlefield rules of engagement.

β€œIn some ways that’s even more chilling than firing the four stars,” Rosa Brooks, a professor at Georgetown Law. β€œIt’s what you do when you’re planning to break the law: you get rid of any lawyers who might try to slow you down.”

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.

Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.

Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.
