Leftist. Anti-fascist, anti-tankie, anti-authoritarian.
I'm pretty ready for the Nuremburg trials for these people.
A very disturbing video has emerged from today’s ICE/CBP operations in Avondale.
An officer pushes a woman to the ground, prompting bystanders to react angrily and throw what appears to be a rock at a moving unmarked vehicle.
This seems to be the new normal in Chicago.

Not sure any other policy theory has been attempted more frequently and failed 100% of the time like trickle down economics
"Republicans insist that when you cut taxes for the wealthy, it’s like feeding Popeye a can of spinach; pumped with this almost magical fuel, the entire economy will burst with new power and vitality. There will be so much economic activity that revenues will surge, and deficits will even go down."
Republicans are trying to sell a bizarre fantasy on the economy
Would you believe we're on the cusp of a miraculous eruption of prosperity unlike anything Americans have experienced before?

It's 2015. President Barack Obama has accepted a "sky palace" jumbo jet from the Qatari government, which he'll own after he leaves office. "Everybody relax," he says in an interview with the New York Times. Everyone does. The networks then televise the military parade in his honor on his birthday.

Musk’s hackers burglarized "a vast trove of information about the entire federal workforce” on OPM computers even as Trump was being sworn in — that is "hours before Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, was officially created by an executive order.”

in the trump administration, “merit” is pronounced “white” like how strom thrumond said it.
Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story.
Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver.
This is what "merit" means to them.

REP. BURCHETT: If they were truly violent, no. But I don't know that?

Yes!!! Say more of this!!! It’s the most astonishingly, openly corrupt administration in US history, literally from the first day, and it’ll only get worse. They aren’t even trying to hide it. It’s a degree of corruption that could destabilize the whole country, the whole world.
The story of this first week is corruption. Billionaires seated on the inaugural stage in front of the cabinet, crypto pump and dump, and the illegal firing of IGs. The media is acting like this is too chaotic and bewildering to interpret, but they are just afraid of sounding shrill. It’s corrupt.

A GOP fiscal blueprint Sen Wyden obtained confirms Trump/Musk's presidency will be focused on two things: (i) lowering already low tax burdens of the very rich; and (ii) gutting essential services and benefits for retirees, children, veterans, the disabled and the very poor, as I discussed here:
