The United States is under attack. Elon Musk—who has been elected to nothing and is a deeply troubled person—is literally destroying our government from the inside and doing so without authority or consent of the governed. Working on a report on this right now. It’s an emergency.

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942.

The best way to fight hate is compassion. Speak truth and feel empathy. Focus on community and whatever that means to you #resist
I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.
Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

The Trump-Colombia Crisis That Trump Deliberately Created and Then “Fixed,” Explained in One Paragraph
Media just fell for the oldest trick in the old brigand Trump's career-criminal playbook: the rope-a-dope. The fact that it did so confirms that it has learned nothing about how to deal with the man.

When they start dragging immigrants into camps, the images will be so horrific and similar to concentration camps that the billionaires that own social and legacy media will prevent it from being seen by the general public. This is how fascists work.

I wonder how many folks in journalism or out there in America realize that Elon Musk is so proud of his two Nazi salutes that the video of him giving them is currently his pinned tweet on Twitter.
He knows exactly what he did—and he wants to take the face of every American and shove it in his s***.
