America faced domestic fascists before and buried that history
Although thousands of Americans embraced fascist ideas during the interwar years, a new study examines why the US has had little appetite to remember that past.

🚨Arresting US citizens who have not broken any laws is now acceptable practice in the United States of America. The only thing worse than being ICE is pretending that you don’t see what is happening to our neighbors. She isn’t a hero, she’s an American. 🇺🇸

👇 This is what happens when you are in a cult, and are just plain stupid. Oh, and I am almost 95% positive, they are all racist, because they believe in a fat orange nazi in the oval.
Uneducated MAGA voters have no clue about healthcare in the United States! ACA vs. Obamacare?

There are good people in this country, people who stand up for their neighbors & put their bodies on the line.
Don't forget that. Good people stand against #ICELawlessness. Be inspired by that. As ICE thugs round up, brutalize & torture our fellow Americans, do or say something! Don't be complicit.

I say, better late than never. Personally, I don't care if her epiphany is just CYA. If it sways any voters of her district, even the potential of leftward movement, or even "normal" republicanism, I'll take it.
MAGA-like Marjorie Taylor Greene-never care about the type of pain they inflict on others until it happens to them
Marjorie Taylor Greene claims she shared with Trump death threat she received that he incited, and his response was "extremely unkind"

From now on, I will be referring to all inappropriate naps as "Cabinet Meetings", whether it be at my desk, the lunchroom, staff meetings, trainings, etc. Thank you for attention on this matter.

Rand Paul: "Secretary Hegseth said he had no knowledge of this and it did not happen. It was fake news. It didn't happen. And then the next day, from the podium of the WH, they're saying it did happen. So either he was lying to us on Sunday or he's incompetent and didn't know what had happened."

Watch her read her prepared talking points. They are fixated on President Biden. Side note, I may despise her as much as I do Trump. Her voice, her constant haughtily pursed lips, and her overall demeanor enrage me.

Department of Defense Law of War Manual, Sec. 18.3.2.1 states the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders.
What’s its key example? Wait for it . . . It’s "orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

Science is inherently about asking questions, finding answers, then asking more questions. But when the questions have been sufficiently answered, denial becomes dangerous.
