The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it comes stronger than their democratic state itself.That, in its essence, is fascism ownership of government by an individual by a group/FDR no DMs๐Ÿ’™

I feel the same. And fight it everyday.
Tired is how they wanted us to feeler.
Fatigued. Worn down. Too discouraged to punch back.
Itโ€™s part of their arsenal of psychological warfare.
Please, fight through the โ€œtiredโ€. Gather together and find strength in the group.
Support each other and fight.

There was supposed to be an Epstein survivors press conference yesterday. Was it canceled? I haven't heard anything.

How many felons do you think are working for ICE at this point? I definitely think it's a a non-zero number. If they weren't a felon when they started, I suspect many of them are...now.

Most of Dem Senators did not attack Bondi yesterday as they should have. Among other things they should have said, "You're lying again, Ms. Bondi" and "That's a bald-faced lie, Ms. Bondi."

The rapid rise of authoritarianism is no place for etiquette.

Shapiro: I filed that amicus brief last night to make it very clear that the Pennsylvania National Guard is under my command.

The way the President has chosen to deploy the Guard in other statesโ€”and, in at least one case, deploy the Guard from one state into anotherโ€”is extremely dangerous.

A white graphic with a blue border includes the following text: 

My Statement on Middle East Peace
October 9, 2025 

After two years of unimaginable loss and suffering for Israeli families and the people of Gaza, we should all be encouraged and relieved that an end to the conflict is within sight; that those hostages still being held will be reunited with their families; and that vital aid can start reaching those inside Gaza whose lives have been shattered. More than that, though, it now falls on Israelis and Palestinians, with the support of the U.S. and the entire world community, to begin the hard task of rebuilding Gaza โ€“ and to commit to a process that, by recognizing the common humanity and basic rights of both peoples, can achieve a lasting peace.

I thought the Epstein survivors were supposed to hold a press conference today. What happened to that? I can't find a time or that it's even still going to take place.

Starving children screaming for food as US aid cuts unleash devastation and death across Myanmar U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has repeatedly said โ€œno one has died" because of his governmentโ€™s decision to gut its foreign aid program.

The Americans starving these children wear crucifixes and call themselves โ€œChristians.โ€

People are not what they tell you they are; they are how they behave.

The executive branch is one of three COEQUAL branches of government in America.

Until we get rid of this Dictator & this SCOTUS that enables his tyranny, you live in Russia.

Exclamation point.
