I am beginning to understand that people who say "both sides" are not willing to engage in any meaningful discussion of that claim.

Definitely. And FWIW...I wish every day that it was wrong.

Over 25 since I've been warning about the threat; a little over 10 since I started saying MAGA is the face of that threat. Thank you.

The federal government is planning to send our own armed forces to at least nineteen more American cities.

Who's paranoid and crazy and unhelpful and overly dramatic now?

Y'all should have listened.

I wanted to be wrong but it was clear to me at LSU in the early 90's that something horrific was gaining momentum. It's not going away easily.

This is what we're up against, folks. There will be no MAGA shift, no great awakening, no coming to their senses. Surrender or fight are the only options being offered. I hope that changes but there is little evidence to suggest it will anytime soon.

Der Magafuhrer sends the military to our Capitol and says other cities are next, then claims the unhoused will "be given a place to stay".

Why does it feel like those 'places to stay' (if true) likely involve inhumane treatment and forced labor?

IMHO there needs to be more direct progressive engagement with MAGA and fewer disappointed fan letters to Democrats.

Trump's agriculture head expects '34M able-bodied on Medicaid' to do farm work Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins argued that 34 million "able-bodied adults" who are at risk of losing their Medicaid benefits should be expected to take the jobs of migrants on farms.During a Tue...

It is a tenet of Nazism that out groups do not have valid opinions on any subject and do not deserve to be heard, only insulted and ruled.

Anyway, that's why civility and reason cannot defeat MAGA on their own.

Israel considering military strike on Iran, sources say If there is military action by Israel against Iran, it would most likely be without U.S. support, sources said.

The MAGA healthcare plan.

I mean the decline is obvious.

U.S. Citizen Forcibly Detained by ICE After Agents Claimed His Proof of Citizenship Was Fake An American citizen was forcibly detained by ICE agents at an Alabama construction site after the agents falsely claimed his proof of citizenship was fake.

These feel like trial runs, like the day is coming when citizens in this predicament will not be released...and it won't be a mistake. It's the plan.

Absolutely unreal plot twist by the writers today — the new pope is a JD Vance critic, setting the stage for a redemption narrative after the previous pope died just hours following his meeting with Vance.

They still have their fastball.

Wisconsin Judge Arrested, Accused of Shielding Immigrant From Federal Agents

The USA is on an incredibly fast slide to complete fascism.

That pesky Constitution is so annoying...🙄

Nazis doing Nazi things. The window to stop it is rapidly shrinking.

Doesn't hurt to check into it. Good luck!

The ability to leave is key. At this point I think anyone who can do so should at least be putting together a plan to get out. So far the 'oh it's not that bad' crowd has been wrong about everything. I did not want that to be the case but here we are and it sucks.

If anyone doubts the USA is under a Nazi regime please state your case by explaining, in detail, what Nazis would be doing differently in their first three months of power.

Anyone who thinks it stops at immigrants needs to study history. That's not how it works. Fascism is an all-consuming bloodlust.

Imma just leave this here.

The answer to Democratic "messaging problems" won't be found in D.C. but can be plainly seen in our bathroom mirrors. No political message can survive scrutiny and questioning by every member of our coalition. Therefore ...no coherent message.

Vance says it's "sick" to want him returned. That's because Vance is a Nazi.

An ‘Administrative Error’ Sends a Maryland Father to a Salvadoran Prison The Trump administration says it mistakenly deported an immigrant with protected status but that courts are powerless to order his return.

Nazis. No other word for it. The USA is falling to Nazis.

Yeah that's pretty much it.

Getting there...
