Every time you see someone powerful acting like a craven coward in the face of this authoritarian menace, let it stiffen your own spine. We are all we've got.

In 2017, Trump gave a $2 trillion tax cut mostly sucked up by billionaires and big corporations.
But it was so expensive, Republicans set many of their tax cuts to end after 2025.
Now, Republicans want to steal from working people to pay for more tax cuts for billionaires.

I heard my friend Dan here give a remarkable brief talk about this last month. Thankfully, he’s written it up at length to share.
In light of everything happening, I wrote about how the KKK in the 1920s felt unstoppable, about the people that fought against them anyway, and about how fascism always fails. dansinker.com/posts/202…

As companies shell out big bucks for Super Bowl commercials, remember that many said they were forced to raise prices due to inflation.
Also remember that average profit margins in nearly every sector in the S&P 500 are running near or above 10-year highs.

The HHS nominee is a dangerous science-denying conspiracy nut.
The FBI nominee pleaded the 5th to his involvement in criminal conspiracies and has fund raised for violent insurrectionists.
The DNI nominee is a Russian asset.
...and here we are, doubtful if anything can be done to stop them.

We did not have a FAA administrator to respond to the tragic crash last night in DC. Why? Because Elon Musk pushed the head appointed under Biden to resign after he fined SpaceX for failing to follow safety license requirements. www.theverge.com/news/603113/...
The FAA is facing a major crisis without a leader because Elon Musk pushed him out

Trump blaming last night's tragic crash on "DEI" isn't just racist nonsense.
It’s part of his divide and conquer strategy.
He wants to get us so riled up against one another that we don’t look upward and see where all the power and wealth have gone.
