For the youngsters, after the Cold War but before 911, the USG considered animal and environmental rights advocates the number one domestic terrorist threat. Federal cops have an ingrained anti left mindset, not just this but built from the historical targeting of POC liberation and anti war folks
#OTD in 2005, the FBI’s fear-inducing roundup of environmental & animal rights activists occurred in the US that chills communities today. no humans or other living things were harmed in the dozens of actions that became the federal conspiracy at the heart of the Green Scare.

In case anyone doesn’t know, this is not new. Musk’s maternal grandfather was involved in the technocracy movement in the 1930s. The rich have always sought control through cruelty and inhumane treatment of others.
A Palantir billionaire just called for public hangings.

“It's time to bring back masculine leadership to protect our most vulnerable,” writes Joe Lonsdale.

Would MAGAs stop hoovering Elon Musk's sharts if they knew how to read charts?

(By the way, in the last chart here, the cash held by the richest Americans is so vast it's 10 times the height of the chart and can't be shown. Never forget, it's not democratic socialists who hate us but billionaires.)

Same authority of a 5 year old covering their eyes and saying “na na you can’t see me” #TrumpHasDementia
It should go without saying, but the president has no authority to do this, and anyone reporting the story needs to say as such.

The biggest divide is not between “right” and “left." It’s between democracy and oligarchy. The billionaires who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us. They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see that they have all the wealth and power.

Trump’s ego has always been so fragile. He will say whatever he thinks the room wants to hear in order to like him. This is what has made him such a useful puppet for the right.

We are living in a nightmare version of Idiocracy. Everything in Trump's orbit is both stupid and malicious.

Welcome to Costco, I love you
NEW — I spoke to DoorDash about the White House claiming the company's report shows "inflation has been tamed" and whether that's an interpretation one should make. An economist also weighed in, pointing out dictatorships use data obfuscation as a tool, and right now they're "grasping at straws."
WH claims 'inflation tamed,' per DoorDash stats. Company says that's not in its report.
It comes the same week we learned the WH would likely not release key economic reports for October.

Dems and GOP are like Charlie Brown and Lucy but instead of yanking away the football she just kicks him square in the nuts every time.
UPDATE: Now that 8 Senate Dems folded to Trump—Republicans demand tougher abortion restrictions to extend Obamacare funds.

What? Moving goal posts? Lucy and the football? Who Could Have Seen This Coming??

This is why you don't back down from a bully! My God! My kingdom for a spine for Democrats.
