Rachel Maddow, on the pedophile führer and Netanyahu striking Iran: "Follow the money." 😳👇

When it comes to the midterms, vote like you don't want to be imprisoned in a former Amazon Warehouse for saying you don't like Donald Trump.

Melissa Hortman was the 61st Speaker of the Minnesota House of Representatives. She was assassinated by a right-wing nutjob who felt God compelled him to kill liberals. THAT was a political assassination. #SayHerName #RememberTheHortmans

I’m sorry for the long post but a lot of you have followed me for a long time, since 2016 when I was one of the first to repeatedly call out Trump for being a Russian asset. I don’t know how else to say this, as a person who has studied cults (wrote a bestseller about it) and totalitarian states. I’ve been attacked on Fox News, berated by the VP and others and like many of you, I’ve gotten death threats. So please believe me when I say this. Things have changed. ICE is going to be the vehicle for fascism in this country. The extra-judicial practices (no warrants, no ID), the masks (anonymity leads to horrors again and again throughout history), the dehumanization of immigrants and Democrats (dehumanization precedes arrests, torture, murder, again and again). No we are not going to be Nazi Germany because nothing in history matches Nazi Germany. But fascism has arrived in America. Here is how it is going to happen: ICE will be the vehicle, the gestapo empowered by the President, to enforce his will, first among vulnerable undocumented people, then among legal immigrants, then among political rivals, then among citizens who speak out against the Trump grift. This is not a hypothetical. It’s happening. That Big Dumb Racist bill gives $170 billion dollars for an organization which has no respect for the constitution, no oversight, nothing but marching orders from a couple racist, power-hungry madmen. $170 billion to build hidden prisons with no oversight. To put this in perspective, this is 62% larger than the entire federal prison system. $170 billion to drag people out of their places of work, parks, homes. $170 billion to hire racist little man babies who hide their faces as they assault children, old people, pregnant women. How do you think this goes? How has this ever gone in history? We are entering a dark period. Our only hope is to draw the line now. To stick up for our friends and neighbors, our co-workers and loved ones, who are undocumented and being hunted. If morality or empathy for them is not enough to motivate you, fine. Then let this be your motivation: if you don’t draw this line, you are next. Do you think Trump will grow a conscience? Do you think Stephen Miller will have any trouble going from, “these people are criminals” (them) to “these people are helping criminals?” (You, by being against Trump). To “we must arrest the traitors opposing our efforts to arrest criminals?” (You or anyone you care about who publicly opposes Trump.) Do you think republican congressman are going to care? To lift onefinger to protect you? To do anything which gets in the way of Trump’s agenda? A person who has no problem letting children with cancer die in order to put a few dollars in the pockets of rich men will have no problem with letting Democrats and activists rot in jail for trying to stop it. This has happened again and again throughout the world. And now it’s happening here. I wish I had concrete plans. I don’t. Not now. All I know is the first step for change is identifying the gravity of the truth. And the truth is fascism has arrived in America. And we must stop it in its tracks or it will swallow all of us.

🔥🔥🔥

So true! 🎯

RETWEET if you stand with ABC News reporter Terry Moran against Stephen Miller!

Breaking News: "They are trying to break this agency in order to turn the public against it, so they can privatize it, liquidate it, and steal at least a portion or all of the $2.7 T that's in the fund. People should rise up." Former Social Security Admin Commissioner Martin O'Malley.

Funny how the guy who got billions in government contracts suddenly hates "entitlements" when they help regular people. America isn't going broke because of Social Security. It's going broke from billionaires dodging taxes.

My vote for meme of the day.

RETWEET if you stand with President Zelensky!

The stupidity is relentless with this shrieking imbecile. It’s one thing to be wrong every time she opens her mouth, but @RepMTG has perfected the art of being wrong while contradicting herself in real-time. In just two days, she’s managed to say: “The bureaucracy is not a business.” (Feb. 25) x.com/Acyn/status/1894477067… “The government should operate like a business.” (Feb. 26) @mtgreenee , are you just throwing darts at a board covered in @FoxNews buzzwords? Do you even absorb the words coming out of your own mouth, or are you just running on pure brainstem function? There’s no ideology here, no consistency—just a loud, empty vessel cycling through every anti-government talking point she can regurgitate on command. If intelligence were a crime, she’d have the cleanest record in America. Marjorie Taylor Greene says the U.S. is “completely broke.” 🚨 That’s a flat-out lie. 🚨 If we’re broke: 💰 Why do billionaires still get tax breaks? 💰 Why is the military budget over $800B a year? 💰 Why is there always money for corporate bailouts? And now she’s complaining that the U.S. spent $2 trillion more than it took in last year—while supporting tax cuts for the ultra-wealthy. If deficits are such a problem, why keep slashing taxes for corporations and billionaires? Why make the rich pay less if we’re supposedly “out of money”? The U.S. isn’t broke—the @GOP @HouseGOP @SenateGOP just wants to funnel public money upward while pretending to be “fiscally responsible.” Now this brain-dead clown says, “If the U.S. were a business, it would be bankrupt.” 🛑 The government is NOT a business. It was never meant to be. (Read this carefully. Say it out loud. Write it on your wall. Hell, tattoo it on your forehead if you need to—because too many of y’all, including that dumb bitch Greene, keep acting like you’ve forgotten.) ❌ Businesses maximize profit. Governments serve the PEOPLE. ❌ Businesses can fail. Governments cannot afford to. ❌ Businesses answer to shareholders. Governments answer to citizens. By @mtgreenee & @SpeakerJohnson logic, we should shut down the military, Social Security, and her own job—since none of them turn a profit. But let’s be real—this whole “run the government like a business” schtick is just code for privatizing essential services and making sure only the rich can access them. Then there’s this gem: “The U.S. government is not a charity.” No one said it was, genius. But it is responsible for ensuring a functioning society. ✅ Roads. ✅ Schools. ✅ Healthcare. ✅ National defense. The funny part? The government does act like a charity—for billionaires. 🚨 When corporations get tax breaks and bailouts, it’s “economic stimulus.” Tell me y’all didn’t forget about the 2008 financial crisis caused by reckless lending. Who did the government rush to save? Banks. The auto industry. Hell, even @elonmusk got a $465 million loan around that time to keep Tesla from filing bankruptcy. Meanwhile, most of us got nothing—just stress, PTSD, and a lifetime of anxiety trying to figure out how to survive in an economy rigged against us. 🚨 When regular people need help, it’s “welfare dependency.” The real game: Greene and her buddies want you to hate government so they can strip it down and let corporations run the country. 1️⃣ Demonize public institutions → Make people hate their own government. 2️⃣ Cut services → Redirect public money to billionaires. 3️⃣ Pretend corporations are the answer → Replace democracy with corporate rule. It’s not about “fiscal responsibility.” It’s about power. And the kicker? Greene cashes a taxpayer-funded paycheck. Greene enjoys government healthcare. Greene exploits government resources daily. But she wants you to believe government is the enemy. If she really believed her nonsense, she’d resign and start a business. But she won’t—because grifters don’t have principles. They have opportunism.
