Based on data out of Norway, teen boys and young men aren’t moving right because they’re lonely or struggling, but because they’re being taught to resent girls’ and women’s progress and equality.

Carter wrote this one year after Trump's failed J6 coup attempt 👇

"I now fear that what we have fought so hard to achieve globally — the right to free, fair elections, unhindered by strongman politicians who seek nothing more than to grow their own power — has become dangerously fragile at home."
Opinion | Jimmy Carter: I Fear for Our Democracy (Published 2022)
Even established democracies can fall to military juntas and despots. We can’t let that happen here.

Chris Murphy: "I read the headlines about the Liz Cheney criminal referral and almost every single one of them in mainstream media played this straight as if it was a normal function of legislative power, instead of telling the truth, which is that this is made up out of thin air."

We must not be resigned. We must not capitulate. We must resist. He is an authoritarian. He’s un-American. We must resist.👇
Since Trump won re-election — this time with the popular vote — many of the most influential people in America seem to have lost any will to stand up to him as he goes about transforming America into the sort of authoritarian oligarchy he admires. Call it the Great Capitulation.

Powerful Americans have lost the will to resist Trump.

After the shooting, someone said a lot of the CEO’s are afraid to return to work.

Read that and now think about how our school-aged kids feel!

The resistance after 2016 was a success. But we need something bigger and more durable this time. We need an opposition built for the long term. We need to stop being tired and ignore the cynics. I can promise you, my team and I will be in the fight. If we all do our part we will win!

I understand Donald Trump for what he is a buffoon. Donald Trump wants you to be scared. Rather than being scared, I am proud to be a happy warrior for democracy. We all need to have the courage to not back down. Do not obey!

Kash Patel apparently runs a "America First" clothing line.

"Tired of seeing your money go overseas?" reads a product page. "Support your fellow Americans by purchasing a Protect Our People t-shirt."

Shirt appears to be made on Next Level blanks ... which are made in Central America and Haiti.
