If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:
1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long
All lies.

We have a madman in the White House who is actively trying to trigger total war.
If Jeffries, Schumer, or any other Democratic leaders try to justify this, shrug indifferently, or write a strongly-worded letter and call it a day, they need to step down or be aggressively primaried.

Israel has resumed genocidal bombardment of Gaza, smashing up any remnants of the appearance of ceasefire. No coincidence that it’s at the same time the U.S. attempts to liquidate the Palestine movement. They want you scared. Our masses, our movement is not only the best defense—it’s the only one.

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.
We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.
They own what happens next.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

There will be increasing US propaganda aimed at Canada. Media will be complicit in normalizing it.
Secret fentanyl labs, porous border that threatens security, etc.
Bet on it. And a lot of Americans will eat it up. This has been the American playbook for decades.

You can have the cops come beat the shit out of your students to prove you’re not a filthy commie and they’ll still do this to you and all you’ll have done is show everyone what a pathetic little coward you are. Might as well do the right thing the first time

Seeing Trudeau endorse and normalize the most depraved racist violence we've seen in our generation feels worse than being concussed by the cops for standing up against it.
A slightly wild number of people seem to think this video of Trudeau saying “I am a Zionist” is AI, so here’s a fresh screen recording I just took from the CPAC video of his speech — which was given yesterday.
Full speech here, clip is around 7:45: www.youtube.com/live/eaCiJr2...

This is the most wretched campaign of deliberate, explicit persecution the United States has perpetrated against a minority group in decades. Many of the most important people in politics and journalism are busying themselves trying to figure out how little to say or do about it.
The Bureau of Prisons is moving forward with plans to move transgender inmates out of prisons that align with their gender identity and into facilities that align with their assigned sex at birth.
Federal prisons prep to move trans inmates as early as next week
