This holiday season use your power to send a message to big businesses like Target, Amazon & Home Depot that we're not going to support fascism & if they do, they will reap the consequences of backing tyranny: losing our business.

#WeAintBuyingIt from Black Friday to Cyber Monday.

Flex your power!

What's your strategy for dinner with MAGA family for #Thanksgiving?

Will you let them blather on while you say nothing, NOTHING TO DEFEND DEMOCRACY?

Fk No!

This is your chance to ask, "What about the high prices, the military in our cities, the #ICELawlessness where they're brutalizing citizens?"

They long to be able inprison and open gulags for opposition like Putin does.

Following LAWful orders and not following UNLAWful orders - exactly! Felon can't read, right?

Happening now in Minnesota: Protestors were sprayed as ICE launched yet another federal raid in St. Paul. Communities are standing their ground while agents escalate force.

Photojournalist @DPet_KARE11News captured these scenes in real time.

Let's drop the naivitΓ© and accept that this war will end on the battlefield after Ukraine achieves the necessary military strength, not in a conference room after a round of talks and a carafe of wine.

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

These two are equally relevant. They remind me of the Hunger Games hosts. His promotion of her and her lack of seriousness in the times when people are being kidnapped and children are starving, families hurting is stomach churning.

And Rogan talking about "never ending exponential improvement" bollocks! I don't know if he is just clueless himself or is he pandering to the overgrown toddler that's sitting at his table.

Trump Is a Weak, Failing President, and the Media Is Finally Saying So As Trump’s downward spiral starts producing harsher media coverage, a writer who regularly dissects MAGA and political media explains why he’s entering a tailspin that will be very hard to reverse.

"While elite journos and businessmen kiss the ring of Trump, people in jammies and slippers confront ICE in the street. The courage of ordinary people has been stunning compared to the elite."

On the pod @amandamarcotte.bsky.social is good on Trump's downward spiral:

Try to walk in Zelenskyy's shoes
Trying for updated & refined peace framework
Ukraine to give up Crimea , Luhansk, & Donetsk
Cap Ukraine military size
No NATO membership
Sanctions on Russia lifted in stages
Ongoing talks
As TRUMP pressures Zelenskyy
I think of the Courageous Ukrainians

Influencers made millions pushing β€˜wild’ births – now the Free Birth Society is linked to baby deaths around the world A year-long investigation reveals how mothers lost children after being radicalised by uplifting podcast tales of births without midwives or doctors

When pregnant people do not feel safe, heard or having a say in their care during labor it makes them vulnerable to those who sell the appearance of freedom packaged under the label "natural". www.theguardian.com/world/ng-int...

I had a popular account with a valuable audience and my Twitter payout was $80 a month-ish, to the point where I disabled monetization instead of uploading my ID. Payouts are only material if you live in a developing country, so β€œguy in Nigeria posting right-wing Amerislop” has taken over the site.

"Timothy Snyder: Russian invasion is on a world war scale, but Ukraine alone is fighting it, keeping us in a 1938-like historical moment"

Our Bridge for Kids is a nonprofit in Charlotte. They help families who are afraid to leave their home because of the #ICE raids. Again, I no longer recognize America because of this regime.

The economic situation for people is dire, and uncertainty of the future makes us tighten our purse strings more to prepare for even worse economic ties. It will be a lean holiday season this year and retail companies will feel it even more in the coming weeks.

We cannot rely on CDC giving us health directives when RFK Jr.'s personal opinions are what's published on its pages rather than the scientific understanding.

We just had a humpback wash on the Oregon coast too. It was caught in crabbing nets. It had to be euthanized after a number of days of volunteers keeping it alive.

It is just going to get worse. And how worse can it get? There is no bottom to this. And the regime has no aptitude or care to make the snowballing of disaster stop.
