Jake Tapper's book is nothing more than the corporate media trying to shift the blame for 2024 off themselves. Unsure how people can't see this.

2022: undocumented immigrants paid $96 billion into Social Security/Medicare—yet these Trump marks have no clue they pay into the system & get nothing back.

Just going to say it—Dems don’t have a messaging problem. We have a stupid people problem & encyclopedia-length memes won’t reach these folks.

There is no moral equivalence between bullies and the bullied, between tyranny and democracy, or between brutality and decency. No individual can be free in a society devoid of justice. There can be no liberty where brutality reigns.

I'm never done shouting about what my mom's institutionalization took from her & from us (so here's my @teenvogue.com piece again).

The Right-Wing starting their own "Woke Movement" to cancel history! How hypocritical can you be? To act like history isn't history and the only history is Confederacy and KKK, who are American traitors! Trump, history is already known because of the people, not you!

Excellent explanatory graphic on front page of the New York Times

(With one quibble: The annotation refers to the risk that targets of the operation could have had time to escape if the info was leaked. True. But should have included risk to U.S. crewmembers had this info leaked.)

Tyrants view educated citizens as their greatest enemy.

Slaveholders stopped the enslaved from learning to read. Nazis burned books. Dictators censor media.

That’s why Trump is attacking education, science, museums, and the arts – to prevent us from learning.

It's Fascism 101.

Yes. If DHS can barge in, say your visa was revoked, be told you have a green card, say it's revoked too, and then disappear you so that neither your lawyer nor your family can find you, then all the guardrails are gone. There is no policy, practice, or law protecting anyone.
re the previous repost: if they can disappear permanent residents they can disappear citizens

I’ve always followed the dictum that politics should not interfere with relationships with friends and family. But my Dad fought in the Second World War and I’ve spent my entire life teaching about the virtues of self government. Preserving the republic means more to me than prolonging friendships
