Former Capitol Hill journalist, news director and non-profit communicator now living in Spain. The irony of living in a formerly fascist country turned democratic as my home country trades its democracy for fascism isn’t lost on me.

Exactly right!

Journalists refusing to state the basic facts has fueled MAGA lies and allowed them to create their alternate reality.

The TRUMP administration is doing the threatening not “politics.”

In summary:

The hateful Charlie Kirk was shot by the acolyte of a more hateful version of Charlie Kirk.

It wasn’t any of the imaginary bogeymen they were hoping for.

Just a case of them slowly drowning in their own hate.

Charlie Kirk’s Legacy Deserves No Mourning The white Christian nationalist provocateur wasn’t a promoter of civil discourse. He preached hate, bigotry, and division

Exactly right!
“There is no requirement to take part in this whitewashing campaign, and refusing to join in doesn’t make anyone a bad person. It’s a choice to write an obituary that begins “Joseph Goebbels was a gifted marketer and loving father to six children.”

The president is sending the military to control American cities and if you're a reporter who's framing that illegal power grab as "pushing the boundaries of constitutionality" or "acting boldly to fight crime" or whatever, please go find another line of work where you won't get us all killed.

Bowser to provide indefinite coordination with federal law enforcement — The Washington Post Bowser issued an executive order Tuesday requiring local coordination with federal law enforcement “to the maximum extent allowable by law.” The order gives no expiration date.

Appeasement of Trump NEVER works. Obviously D.C. is in a unique position but the idea that being his “buddy” will prevent him from taking full control whenever he wants is beyond naive.

📌Yer goddamned right I am politicizing these gruesome deaths in Texas. The grotesque GOP ghouls have degraded the NWS and treated climate change as "a hoax."
They have ignored the warnings time and time again.
Their proud stupidity and limitless evil is DIRECTLY responsible for this latest tragedy.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

Congressional Republicans are willing to kill their own constituents because Donald Trump told them to.

Let that sink in.

Why Are Federal Agents Wearing Masks? It’s a Threat to American Democracy Masked Federal Agents Are Undermining Trust—and Democracy

Why is this not getting more attention? Trump has turned American law enforcement into a secret police force breaking our laws while hiding under masks. Putin must be proud of his boy.

If the United States saw what the United States is doing in the United States, the United States would invade the United States to liberate the United States from the tyranny of the United States.

According to AP, the typical pay package for S&P 500 CEOs rose to $17M last year — an increase of 9.7%.

At half of the companies surveyed, it would take the median worker 192 years to make what the CEO did in one year. 

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Our founding fathers understood this and enshrined our freedom of speech to ensure that criticism and protest were protected.

Not that the fascists in the Trump administration know (or care) about any of this.

For cancer survivors, who understand the unique challenges and threat it poses to every individual based on a million factors this won’t be a surprise.

For those who only look for hate and division during times of grief, this will be a total surprise. Shame on them.
