The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

If I was in Congress, I’d have voted to release the Epstein files.

My representative won’t vote for it. He’d rather protect pdfiles.
NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen.

Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Good news: my health insurance costs aren’t going up.

Bad news: it’s cuz I don’t have health insurance.

Better news: I’m running for Congress to fight for health care for all.

We all need to understand a key facet of fascism. There is no end, but also there is no plan. Just an endless string of opportunities to exploit and suppress people when they do not stand up for themselves. Fascists are big dogs that look scary, but run scared when faced with a real fight.
What is the end game for these madmen?? World dominance? Hatred and poverty rife everywhere? That doesn't sound like a good world

Frodo and Sam didn't win at the end of LOTR. They simply outlasted evil. Evil is never sustainable and ultimately consumes itself.

Let's keep holding onto hope and pushing towards our goal.
the fucked up thing is that i believe with the force of 1000 suns that the right wing freaks in government will be defeated and sooner than any of us can think

What a fantastic issue! Just got mine in the mail yesterday and can not wait to dive in.
The readers have spoken! Don't just take our word for it--here's some reaction to the new issue. (We should add that there are some other fine comics mags out there, but if someone wants to place us at the top of the heap, who are we to differ?) Get your own copy at www.hoganmag.com/stores/hogan...
