The U.S. is mirroring a pattern that has happened in authoritarian regimes around the world. When a government erects barriers to reproductive care, it doesn’t just cause death and suffering for women and their families. Such policies are often a first step in the gradual decline of democracies.

Seda Saluk writes about how U.S. policy on abortion rights has started to mirror patterns seen in authoritarian regimes around the world.

State Senator Mallory McMorrow, “The Trump administration is using food as a political weapon."
Taxpayers have already paid into SNAP and there is contingency wording to cover this program. Republicans deleted that wording from the web page this morning.🤬🤬🤬

BREAKING: In an incredible speech, Mallory McMorrow just revealed how Trump is illegally cutting SNAP. Every American needs to see this.

I grew up thinking to myself - often wondering why half of the population believed in lies. Somewhere along the way I realized it was the Republican half.

It's becoming difficult to hide that a major purpose of the Trump administration is siphoning tax revenues from Blue states and redirecting them into subsidies for Red states. At what point does this become intolerable?

Something people aren't talking about enough is how often Charlie Kirk invoked the Fifth Amendment when testifying before Congress about the domestic terrorists he provided buses to get to Washington on January 6, 2021.

there's a weird feedback loop where the media's reaction to kirk's death pushes you to speak more ill of the dead than you otherwise would because it's the only reasonable response to the simpering praise they're heaping on him

History provides a roadmap of warning signs. The term "fascism" is not a casual insult; it's a specific political ideology with a recognizable pattern of behavior.

One of the most powerful tools in politics is a short memory. For decades, we've heard the same talking points about "fiscal responsibility," but do the facts back it up?
Welcome to The Long Memory Project, a new series dedicated to fighting political amnesia with data and context.

It's easy to feel cynical about politics right now. To feel like all options are flawed and nothing makes a difference. But that feeling—that apathy—is the most dangerous political force in our country. #ProtectDemocracy #SaveDemocracy #CivicEngagement #Progress #PoliticalDiscourse #Vote #Democracy

This is an important thread. Make no mistake the cruelty is the point. Republicans are evil and must be stopped.
There's no difference between feeding folks to alligators and feeding them to ovens. MAGA, you are the bad guys.

It’s the gaslighting. Donald Trump is exhausting because of the gaslighting. He’s exhausting the world the way narcissists do. Even exposure to them for a few minutes researchers have found changes people. When someone is that bad faith, it covers everything & everyone like a filth.
