America could wake up on Wednesday with all three branches of our government — the — Executive, Legislative, and Judicial — Trumpist. With this clip, take five minutes to ponder Germany’s memorials and the price that nation paid for being bamboozled by a bombastic autocrat. Listen to the heartfelt message of my German tour guides, for whom these memorials are like ghosts of mistakes made and evils allowed… ghosts that haunt their society still. These are the same guides who clink glasses in the beer halls and yodel from the hilltops with our American tour members. They admire America. They love America. And they are worried for America. If we vote for fascism, it’ll likely be won by one or two percent (or even less)…and perhaps just a few stadiums of people will tip the balance. And history has taught my European friends that the cost of a course correction is infinitely more heartbreaking after a wannabe dictator wins an election than before. We are all participants, we are all responsible, and we will all bear the consequences of our collective choice.

Real talk about #vOUCHers in #TxEd. $500M is slated in the #TxLege budget for vouchers, pending legislative approval. Q: How many Texas students will that $500M serve? Take a guess before reading on... A #FinanceFriday 🧵.

Well this was prophetic:"I will make boys their leaders, and toddlers their rulers. People will oppress each other— man against man, neighbor against neighbor. Young people will insult their elders, and vulgar people will sneer at the honorable." - Isa 3:4-5 #ImpeachandRemove

I would love to go back in time to 1985 and tell someone on the streets of New York that Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger strongly condemned President Donald Trump for leading a coup against the U.S. government.

Horrific new video obtained by CNN shows a MAGA rioter (in white hat and backpack) grab a DC Metro officer and pull him down Capitol steps where he is stomped and beaten with an American flag pole. At one point they sing the Star Spangled Banner

Wrong. Again.

So let’s talk about Parler. Where did it come from? Founder John Matze met his now wife, Alina Mukhutdinova, in May 15, 2016 in Las Vegas. Alina is from Kazan, Russia. She was on a two week road trip “vacation” across the USA with a friend.

Singing “The Star-Spangled Banner” as they smash windows and assault police officers. “Wrapped in a flag and carrying a cross.”

And the big corporations who fund him need to make it very clear they will not be cutting any checks to the GOP/NRCC/etc. as long as McCarthy is at the helm.

I asked one of the foremost experts in cults and religious violence if it was an overreaction to compare the "good vs. evil" mythology of QAnon to that of groups like Al Qaeda. I was told that it was not at all an overreaction.

The MAGA tears we are seeing after losing access to social media is human proof of two things: 1. Accountability for ones actions is a foreign concept to them (that’s privilege) 2. They don’t think trying to take over our democracy is a crime (it’s terrorism)

So Donald Trump is going to build his own social network while also repealing 230. Got it, got it. That should work well.
