“More recently, the day after the 2006 military coup in Thailand, tourists were posing for snapshots next to armed guards; sunbathers were still at the beach.”

“But as would-be dictators consolidate power […] things proceed fairly routinely in many areas in the earliest years.
In the beginning, the horror, as W.H. Auden put it, is usually elsewhere, taking place while other people are going bout their normal daily round.”

What exactly do you think Trump—who was caught scheming to falsify 11K votes in Georgia—was doing between Nov 2020 and Nov 2024?

What if Project 2025 was designed to facilitate *and distract* from the installation of a dictator?
Started in 2022. Just one year after Trump tried to overthrow govt w/Jan6. Published in 2023.
What if The Heritage Foundation saw Trump’s coup desire as a feature, not a bug?

We should not be having a debate about Nazi symbolism tattooed on the potentially top ticket Democrat in Maine. The fact we are even willing to entertain it shows desperation within the Party, not dedication, and how far we have fallen from rational thought.

Platner is not a victim of opposition research. This is what happens when you run for federal office. People scrutinize everything you’ve ever done. Every word and every action. Accountability does not exist in playing the victim of your own behavior.

You miss the point. This is a not-so-subtle-nudge to encourage Microsoft to hit DHS with a cease and decease and pursue a takedown order for using its copyrighted material

🌟 it’d cover two to three ENTIRE months of avg SNAP benefits (between $300-600 across couples to families with kids
☄️meanwhile, Big Ugly Billie eliminates work exemptions for veterans, homeless, and elderly PLUS makes asylees and refugees (we allow them to save them!!) completely ineligible.

☄️$20B -> $40B to Argentina
☄️42mil ppl impacted by Nov 1 SNAP cuts
☄️avg Thanksgiving meal is $5.80pp
☄️$243.6mil to feed the 42mil losing SNAP at $5.80pp
⭐️for $40B in Argentina Bux, you could allocate $952 to states/localities per 100 SNAP residents. ⭐️That would feed 167 ppl one 🦃meal ORRRR

☄️ Trump threw the Argentinian elections by saying the U.S. would make a $20B bailout… so long as Milei’s (fascist) party won seats
☄️ They won. Arg bond went up to some record high

Yeah, well, Trump doesn’t have that power. There is no extrajudicial right to execute someone absent a declaration of war or self defense when there is a legitimate fear of imminent deadly force and retreat is not possible.
We don’t just *take lives.* This is almost common sense.

I *totally* agree!!! What’s worse is that there are so many industries that intentionally create and perpetuate this. Entertainment, sports, beauty, advertising, all of it! We’ve been hearing how (insert celeb) takes their coffee, their diet, their favorite songs, etc.

@microsoft.com video game creators have long argued that video games do not encourage or cause violence.
How do you justify that stance when DHS is using it to “destroy” immigrants?
