“The whole thing is fucking senseless."

A DC National Guard member is speaking out against President Trump’s domestic military deployments, saying they are dangerous for both service members and the communities they're deployed in.

Troops have no place policing our streets.

Here’s a clearer video of the interaction between Raiklin and Fanone. Stay til the end when members applaud Fanone and ask that Raiklin be reined in.

Not Debatable Any Longer: This Regime Wants a Fascist America #ABlueView 🧵1/2

#SignsOfFascism is a new hashtag I hope others will adopt that can be placed on posts like this to highlight the different, insidious ways they're bringing their authoritarianism to America.

Former DC Police officer Michael Fanone and MAGA Ivan Raiklin got into a heated argument at the Jack Smith hearing. Fanone can be heard saying, “you threatened to rape my children. You sick b*stard.”

Michael Fanone was rocking a "Dropkick Murphys….FIGHTING NAZIS SINCE 1996". A real US hero.

Hi everyone -- there is a general strike in Minnesota tomorrow to protest what the Trump administration and DHS are doing to our community. In solidarity with the action, I am going to donate my revenue from tmrw's newsletter to People over Papers, the Midway-Hamline Diaper Bank, & Every Meal. (1/2)

Jim Jordan has never passed the bar exam. The fact that he serves as Chair of the House Judiciary Committee tells you everything about how seriously today’s Republican Party takes its responsibility for legal oversight.

These are adult “reprogramming” centers if you read Project 2025. They keep you indefinitely, until you meet their standards. Their standards being white Christian Nationalists. You become lab rat, handmaid, or soldier. The same as the charter schools that have failed miserably and full of abuses.

I explain why it was, in fact, breaking news.

This is Liam Ramos. The five year old that ICE took from a Minneapolis school and sent BY HIMSELF WITHOUT HIS FAMILY to a detention facility in Texas. There are monsters among us and they are wearing masks, carrying guns, and work for the US government.
