It sure is.

OH, THE RAVAGES OF THE WAR ON CARNIVORISM

When even Marjorie Taylor Greene jumps ship on health care, you know the regime’s rot runs deep. Authoritarians don’t care if you can see a doctor…they care that you obey. Power first. People last.

Well please post the plans. I haven’t been in that loop unfortunately.
(By the way what they’re trying to do worked in Nazi Germany—for awhile—but it didn’t work in India, and in the end it didn’t work in the former USSR either)

What do you suggest? We all just give up?

Does anybody really give a damn what the US ””Supine” Court thinks about anything? They’re Trump lackeys and they would have served Hitler obsequiously with a salute and a smile back in the day.

Only insofar as I doubt he said it in English

We Are All Chicago The Social Contract Community Issue

He’s lying about Chicago & Portland. He’s purposely creating division & hate. He wants the military firing on citizens. We must oppose him with everything we have. We are all Chicago. We are all Portland. Our community Substack. Check it out.👇 open.substack.com/pub/socialco...

This is some bullshit but not unexpected , amirite?

That’s why I put stuff in brackets, to adapt the quote to current conditions. I generally don’t footnote my posts. Should I?

Turns out Patrick Henry was prescient as hell 🤨

This.

Reading a great book on the psychology of pseudoscience by Terence Hines. I just read his discussion of the medieval witchcraft craze during which an estimated 200,000 a people were burned, tortured or hanged as witches.” The ICE pursuit of random dark people as illegal inmigrants
is equivalent

There’s just not enough attention being paid to how unqualified, psychologically unfit, and dangerous so many of these new ICE hires potentially are.

If we had a Congress, there’d be investigations & oversight into this.

They don’t run out of them because it’s all they got.

Trump is a spoiled child; so the MAGA Supreme Court decides to grant him absolute immunity and place him above all restraint and law. Brilliant! Well played!

It's a pretty big deal that the NYC Bar Association--one of the most prominent and respected bar associations in the country--is accusing the President of ordering the "unlawful summary execution," i.e. murder--of civilians in violation of US and international law. www.nycbar.org/press-releas...

Claim: 10 cars rammed ICE
Truth: No cars rammed ICE

Claim: She boxed ICE in
Truth: ICE boxed her in

Claim: She shot a rifle at ICE
Truth: She did not have a rifle

Claim: ICE returned fire
Truth: Only ICE fired

Claim: She drove herself to the hospital
Truth: Paramedics found her

The spoilt child is one who has had no limits on caprice, and gives the impression that everything is permitted him and that he has no obligations.

Trump is a spoilt child—who is also demented, untethered to reality, surrounded by sycophants/criminals and almost 80 years old.
He won’t last forever. When he’s gone there will be a universal cheer—ding, dong the witch is dead! Then he deserves what Nero got; throw him in the river

They aren’t as powerful as they want you to think. Twelve or thirteen of them couldn’t catch one little brown delivery guy with great focus and moves on a small bike, and their gormless leader Noem (or is it gnome?) couldn't even wangle her way into a police station to take a s—-t.

They don’t have the power to do what they’re threatening on a grand scale.

But they want us to think they do.

It really is staggering to see so many people willing to abandon our 249 year experiment in democracy for an increasingly unstable criminally convicted reality show charlatan.
