"To the States or any one of them, or any city of the States,
Resist much, obey little,
Once unquestioning obedience, once fully enslaved,
Once fully enslaved, no nation, state, city of this earth, ever
afterward resumes its liberty."
- Walt Whitman

NEW VIDEO: President Donald Trump announced he will issue a new executive order to get rid of mail-in voting and to control the counting of ballots in 2026. This is not a political stunt. It is an existential threat to democracy.

"He's in the process of establishing a dictatorship."
It's a simple 8-word sentence. News media could tell the public that. They know it's true. They report on the various steps toward autocracy every day. But they're afraid to utter that 8-word sentence. Which is more evidence of how true it is.

The Trump admin’s FY 2026 budget would gut $2.2 b from NOAA research—eliminating labs that study weather, oceans, and climate. Will result in delayed storm warnings, weaker disaster prep, lost lives.

White House details proposed NOAA research, science cuts
The dissolution of the Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research accounts for a large chunk of the $2.2 billion in suggested cuts, but all of NOAA's line

Sent to me from a source who took this video yesterday who says LAPD pushed an unhoused person walking in the crosswalk. The fall caused the woman’s head to crack open. LAPD dragged and left her bleeding on the sidewalk, providing no medical care. The person a group of onlookers took her to the ER.

For all those left-leaners who don't think it matters if/who you vote for, ask yourself which candidate is likely to take your protest into consideration (even if they later ignore it) and which is going to undermine your very right to protest at all. Vote for the first one every time.

America needs a political party that can say this: “we don’t allow the billionaires dictate our policies, we don’t allow billionaires to even attempt to buy our candidates. We stand for working class people. We stand for guaranteed healthcare, housing, food, & education. We reject bigotry & hate.“

Incredible to realize Rowling actually believes she wrote the tragic story of a visionary wizard who wanted to create a world of perfected racial purity despite an oppressive woke opposition, but was foiled at every turn by a loser orphan kid, his poor friend, and a fucking <slur> know it-all bitch.
