I’m not sure how much more gaslighting, projection & deflection we have to endure. It’s mind-blowingly fucked up! Look 👀 over there, WHERE!?
I suppose all this tripe about Biden's age might be important to know, but it belongs on the History Channel. It's not news. You know what's news? The president deploying the military against US citizens. The Billionaire Bailout Bill. DOGE getting access to our private data. THAT is news.

Trump’s middle name is CHAOS! It’s about time that someone in a position of power calls out the blatant fucking lies, projection, deflection and gaslighting that is the usual playbook for Trump & his ilk, like Huckabee-Sanders.

Trump’s first 100 days have been full of chaos, cruelty, and autocratic ambition. But that’s only half the story. Democracy is fighting back—hard.

He stood there on Jan 20 and falsely mouthed the words to protect and defend our Constitution.

Asked now on Meet the Press if he thinks he needs to uphold the Constitution, he says, “I don’t know.”

Translation: No.

Woe to America and the utter failure of putting this man back in our Oval Office.

Things the president of the United States said on meet the press today:

He doesn’t know if he has to follow the constitution

He’s fine with a recession

Americans can do with less

Small businesses are just “a couple of little businesses”

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work.

Elbows up Canada!! Probably the only good thing to come out of this wretched administration- showing other countries what 21st century fascism looks like.

That fear you have, that maybe even small decision to limit what you say or where you go, even for US citizens, it means we’re living under authoritarianism.
We're going from "foreign tourists afraid to visit the US" to "US citizens afraid to go abroad because of what could happen when they return to their own country"

"It's inconvenient to give everyone due process, so we won't do it for certain people" is a sentence that's never been said by someone who believed in a free country.

Sorry not sorry, y’all. I will never ever never never ever support anything that diminishes trans rights - even if it’s just one tenth of one percent of their rights. Never. Because once you forfeit one tenth of one percent, that becomes 10%, then 100%. Every. Time.

I'm struggling to get over what we saw today.

The amount of gaslighting, cruelty, ignorance, abject cowardice, arrogance, indifference to human life, and deceit we saw from Trump and Vance...we saw behavior we associate with enemies of the United States inside the Oval Office.

That's traumatizing.

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.

Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.

Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.

We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉
