The smaller government Trump, the MAGA politicians and their billionaire donors really want.

CRUELTY IS THEIR GOAL.

Just a reminder that in 2019, RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine misinformation campaign helped cause a measles outbreak in Samoa that killed 83 people, mostly kids.

Do you really want him to lead the Department of Health and Human Services?

Rep. Dan Meuser just now: "This is nonsense. Nobody is gonna be going after Liz Cheney."

Trump in July: *calls for Liz Cheney to be tried for treason during a televised military tribunal* (www.cnn.com/2024/07/02/p...)

Good morning and Happy Thursday to everyone who is determined to turn up the volume and EXPOSE all of the brutal, deadly consequences of abortion bans in America.

They're not "pro-life."
They're pro controlling women's bodies.

I block magats! I dont know why you would follow me?

A previously undisclosed whistle-blower report on Hegseth’s tenure as the president of Concerned Veterans for America, from 2013 until 2016, describes him as being repeatedly intoxicated while acting in his official capacity—to the point of needing to be carried out of the organization’s events. The detailed seven-page report—which was compiled by multiple former C.V.A. employees and sent to the organization’s senior management in February, 2015—states that, at one point, Hegseth had to be restrained while drunk from joining the dancers on the stage of a Louisiana strip club, where he had brought his team. The report also says that Hegseth, who was married at the time, and other members of his management team sexually pursued the organization’s female staffers, whom they divided into two groups—the “party girls” and the “not party girls.” In addition, the report asserts that, under Hegseth’s leadership, the organization became a hostile workplace that ignored serious accusations of impropriety, including an allegation made by a female employee that another employee on Hegseth’s staff had attempted to sexually assault her at the Louisiana strip club. In a separate letter of complaint, which was sent to the organization in late 2015, a different former employee described Hegseth being at a bar in the early-morning hours of May 29, 2015, while on an official tour through Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, drunkenly chanting “Kill All Muslims! Kill All Muslims!”

They. Really. Are. Planning. To. Burn. It. All. Down 🔥

If you studied the rise of Nazis, you knew it would be this easy, this fast

This is your daily reminder that this really did happen.

Tulsi Gabbard and Trump's scheme to gut the intel agencies It's hard to envision a less suited intelligence chief. That’s a feature, not a bug.

"Tulsi Gabbard’s longstanding association with a shadowy rightwing cult, her history of suspicious uses of campaign funds, her habitual conspiracism and advocacy for the interests of bloodthirsty dictators (including Syria’s Bashar al-Assad as well as Putin) all raise a multiplicity of red flags."

Pretty much, huh.

Well they say a picture is worth a thousand words, this is spot on. Do not obey in advance!

I am trying to take public transportation more instead of driving. I am trying to eliminate my spending at Walmart and Amazon entirely. I am trying to use less plastic. I am trying to eat less meat and never get fast food. These tiny acts of resistance add up. I recommend you all try to do the same.

Remember new users are coming on daily, unsure of engagement. The more posts you like and reply to, the strong the platform becomes !

Crucial point from Julia Azari: If media is too credulous about Trump's claims of a mandate, he'll feel more emboldened to pursue authoritarian extremes. Media has a real responsibility to get this right. Don't blow it.

How the Supreme Court Bolstered Project 2025 From Marc | The Supreme Court has recently become a witting or unwitting facilitator of Project 2025’s dystopian agenda for the future.

When I wrote this in July, some said I was being alarmist. Unfortunately, now I look prescient.

"Project 2025 is premised on contempt for constitutional norms and the rule of law. It seeks to reshape American government, law and society for a generation." www.democracydocket.com/opinion/how-...

We need protection from Trump.

IN 1956 NIKITA KHRUSCHEV
SAID

"We do not have to invade the USA we will destroy you from within"

Another criminal pick for the Trump administration.

Republicans want to tell you what books you can read, what bathroom you can use, what words you can say, what history you can learn, what you can or can’t do with your own body and what gender you are… but tell me more about how the Dems are “coming for your freedoms”.

Idiots.

💯 True

Leak the damn Gaetz report. Stop protecting a sex trafficking rapist.

Post from Adam If Matt Gaetz DIDNT rape a minor, the GOP would have released the report. Just fyi

Raw unvarnished truth here.

Christian, if You're Celebrating Deportations, You Shouldn't Be Celebrating Christmas Christian,

Just what exactly are you celebrating this Christmas?
