“After all, if anyone can show a nation betrayed by Donald Trump how to defeat him, it is the city that gave rise to him. And if there is any way to terrify a despot, it is by dismantling the very conditions that allowed him to accumulate power.”

“No more, will New York be a city where you can traffic in Islamophobia and win an election.”
I can't be the only one who sees the synchronicity of Mamdani winning the NYC mayor's race on the day Dick Cheney died.

By definition, billionaires care mostly about wealth and power.
We can have democracy or we can have billionaires.
We cannot have both.

If you read the Google News headline you'd think Trump is on the verge of making the Middle East peaceful again, and headed for a Nobel Prize. But when you read the actual article, it's clear none of that is true. 🤔

What should be an unprecedented national crisis of epic proportions is *checks notes* just another Tuesday in 2025.
These so-called "DEMOCRAT AGENCIES"...
-Ensure our food is safe to eat
-Keep our air and water clean
-Alert us to natural disasters
-Protect us from financial fraud and scammers
Remember what Trump is actually attacking.

Anyone who didn't think this demented sex predator oligarch and his despicable goons would use Orwellian lies to attempt implementing a military dictatorship hasn't been paying attention. All who resist will be labeled Antifa terrorists, subject to arrest or execution. What are we gonna do about it?

As the Senate considers voting to approve Trump's devastating funding cuts to public broadcasting, listen to the words of LeVar Burton.
The Capitol switchboard is (202) 224-3121.
Contact your senators today and urge them to oppose these cuts.

This is oligarchy. This is obscene.
While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%.
End this oligarchy.
