#ProudBlue Believer in democracy, "a government of the people, by the people, and for the people"--and that means all the people, of all colors, all genders and gender preferences, all creeds; the only exceptions being bigots and fascists of all stripes

Now Taylor is partnering with Shakespeare. Both she and the Bard never cease to amaze. I thank her for keeping his boundless heart beating strong! Another reason to defeat Dump and fascism, for Trump's dream is to squash everything creative about life.

Governor Whitmer was almost kidnapped by armed thugs. Governor Shapiroโ€˜s house was set on fire. Nancy Pelosiโ€˜s husband was violently attacked by someone looking for her. Melissa Hortman was assassinated in her home with her husband and dogโ€ฆand now this. The left is the victim, not the perpetrator.

David Ellison, the head of Paramount/CBS, is a Nepo Baby son of billionaire psycho Larry Ellison, who just bought TikTok and wants to buy Warner Bros/Discovery (CNN, HBO).

He's the biggest private donor to Israel, hard core right wing Zionist and Trump supporter.

Bari Weiss is their Luca Brasi.

Tyranny isnโ€™t American. Defiance of tyranny is.

Trump might think heโ€™s warming people up to the idea of authoritarianism, but heโ€™s encountering patriotic resistance at every turn.

From judges, governors, ordinary citizensโ€ฆlike us.

True Americans will not go quietly into the night.

BREAKING:

The Supreme Court just rejected Ghislaine Maxwellโ€™s appeal of her criminal conviction for recruiting and grooming teenage girls for sexual abuse by Jeffrey Epstein.

The decision means that her conviction and 20-year criminal sentence remain in place.

admission, transfer to non-public treatment areas, and throughout his stay, keeping him
handcuffed to his hospital bed. Id. ยถ 6.

ICE has been paying private security for 24/7 guards to watch a guy with no record whose leg they fucked up so badly he has been in a hospital for over a month, and we wonder why people were handing Tom Homan bags of cash.

HOW WE CAN STOP ICE and/or fake ICE kidnappers

it is illegal to transport humans and firearms in the back of trucks. ICE uses U-haul and Penske to kidnap humans.

We can call and write (or call) these companies (corporate office, only) and cc our local police dept. reporting them.

Let's do it.
