this is just straight-up dictatorship and it’s repulsive and pathetic our newspapers and TV stations still won’t say so. there is no emergency. there is no precedent for this in US history. Trump is establishing military and paramilitary control of the capital

i’m a believer in something @therickwilson.bsky.social said recently, which was basically β€œif they take 5 seats of ours, we take 10 of theirs.” there needs to be pain when they pull this shit.

Voters crave new solutions to a status quo that isn’t working.

Mamdani demonstrated he's willing to try daring thingsβ€”and institute programs that go beyond the incremental negotiation of existing services.

We’re in the midst of the consolidation of an American fascist regime.

They’re building concentration camps and setting up a secret police force which has already arrested opposition elected officials.

And yet, big parts of our political and media elite are acting as if nothing has changed.

anil isn't kidding. this level of transparency and detail β€”Β talking to voters like adults β€”Β is remarkable. i would imagine it also helps people feel like they are part of something bigger. and, christ, mamdani is insanely charismatic and good on screen. like, you just want to watch him talk!

Knowing the fundamentalist, White Supremacist-leanings of the LASD & having faced them during peaceful protests in the β€˜90’s,
this doesn’t surprise me.

I sincerely hope there is video/timeline evidence that LASD escalated a peaceful protest.

The MAGAs are out in full force today because their narrative is crumbling. Incredible work so proud of all of you. It’s impossible for this administration to control the narrative when everyone has a camera and access to social media.

If you really want to drive the point home about how fucked up ICE is then people should start forcing Star Wars themes on ICE. Protesters should start playing the imperial march whenever ICE shows up and should also start dressing like the rebel alliance.

It happens every few generations: It’s what drove Confederate oligarchs to attempt succession in the 1860s; robber barons to murder union organizers at the turn of the 20th century; and it’s why wages have stagnated since the Reagan revolution.

The rise of greedy oligarchs.
