Remember: executive orders don't "give the president power". It's not a magic monarchical right that he has to declare via EO that he usurps The Constitution. He's a tyrant trying to steal our power.

If he tries to put out an illegal EO, it's up to the courts AND the American People to block it.

They're never beating the controlled opposition allegations.

You think these corporate Dems will work to overturn Citizens United? They don't work for us, they work for corporations and foreign govts and dark billionaire $$.

We need a representative democracy. Reps who work for us, The People.

Kansas Revokes IDs for 1,000+ Transgender Residents Under New State Law More than 1,000 transgender Kansas residents have had their driver's licenses and birth certificates invalidated under a new state law that took effect Thursday. The legislation requires gender marker...

It was never about protecting cisgen women and girls. This law strips transgender adult male and females of their right to pursue liberty.

The Ellisons are going to be in control of #WarnerBros, adding CNN to their possession of news infrastructure. What is there to even say that hasn’t been said a million times already about the consolidation of power via the #MAGA takeover of broadcast media & the entertainment industry. This is bad.

"You cannot unilaterally exit a [culture] war that is actively being fought. When the battlefield is active, and one side is advancing, laying down rhetorical arms is not a strategy; it is surrender."

It appears that the blanket was just a cover story because what Noem & Lewandowski were really worried about was a personal bag of Noem’s that contained items which could cause her embarrassment.

Blind refugee abandoned by Border Patrol dies in Buffalo. A nearly blind refugee abandoned by Border Patrol miles from his home dies in Buffalo after having been missing for nearly a week.

Our federal government killed a disabled genocide survivor and is covering up for a child rapist. And that is just today’s news. It is just unconscionable to be treating this as normal or acceptable in any way.

Data On The Crackdown On Gaza Protests Reflects Increasing Repression In US - PopularResistance.Org Protests over the unfolding genocide in Gaza erupted across the U.S. in 2023, quickly becoming the largest mass demonstration since Black Lives Matter a few years earlier. In both cases, the protest movements took aim at state violence and oppression against marginalized groups. Deeper scrutiny of the protests and law enforcement response reveals how the U.S. government at all levels has escalated its repressive tactics during the last five years. One telling statistic shows how a strong majority of cases filed against Black Lives Matter protesters in 2020 were dropped or dismissed, but the crackdown on Gaza demonstrators has grown even more draconian and resulted in harsher punishments.

@moreperfectunion.bsky.social recently covered Bohemian Grove and there’s a lot of unsurprising connections between people in power.

Some of these connections are affecting us to this day. A great example, the cuts to social security in the 1980s were planned at Bohemian Grove

I like U.S. Senate candidates who don’t cut and paste their policies from other candidates’ websites from other states.

This rundown of Jasmine Crockett’s original, Texas specific policies is exactly what doing your own homework actually looks like.
