If you want to know the components of an electoral autocracy:
1.) undermine election integrity (aka say it’s election fraud).
2.) curtail dissent & 1A rights
3.) allow oligarchs to monopolize media that most people consume to - see 1 & 2.

Look at Hungary.

Jack Smith: Trump’s FRAUD was not protected First Amendment speech. Trump knowingly lied about the 2020 election in an attempt to overturn its result.

The US attack on Venezuela is plainly illegal; it violates the UN Charter, there was no Congressional approval, and there was clearly no immediate threat justifying action in self-defence. It will now be used as post-hoc justification for imperialist regimes around the world.

After the unexpected and crazy result of yesterday’s cooking post, I thought I’d share my brunch using the leftover homemade English Muffins.

A potato rosti, bacon, egg, mascarpone and chilli jam, muffin butty! 🤤

If you are a foreign president who commits crimes overseas, America will come get you, arrest you, and lock you up.

But if you are a US president who commits crimes here in the United States, America will give you immunity from prosecution, reelect you, and bribe you with billions of dollars.

Zelensky on Venezuela:

“About Venezuela? How should I respond to that? Well, what can I say? If… If it is possible to act with dictators like this, it means the United States knows what to do next. Thank you”

Omg I love it.

U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1 trillion.

Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government.

Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed EIGHT straight audits.

This is the military industrial complex on steroids.

Enough.

The moderate position *is* impeachment and removal of every executive officer, and Section 3 of the 14th Amendment removal of every member of Congress who has facilitated any one of either Trump administration’s crimes. Any action short of that is complicity.

I guess Trump forgot “conveniently” about the TIAR treaty, which came after WWII, and was a remediation of the Monroe Doctrine.

Mexico managing to have more spine than every western nation despite being in the immediate crosshairs, fuck every cowardly world leader that tries to play this safe
Mexico:

"The Mexican government strongly condemns and rejects the military actions carried out unilaterally in recent hours by the armed forces of the U.S. against targets in the territory of the Republic of Venezuela, in clear violation of Article 2 of the Charter of the United Nations."

Final broadcast of ABC News Tonight for 2025. I hope every rep and senator saw it.

Millions are being forced to cancel health insurance because it’s unaffordable. That pressure doesn’t stop with them; it spreads. When people drop coverage, everyone’s rates go up.

Call your Rep and Senators.

Trumpsters claiming they voted for his economic policies remind me of when men would claim they read Playboy for the articles.
