There are only three political positions in America today
1) I like the fascism
2) I'll acquiesce to the fascism (reasons for this one vary: cowardice, access, denial, misguidedly thinking that acquiescence is savvy, etc)
3) I oppose the fascism
The rest is details

AOC: It is almost unthinkable why Senate Democrats would vote to to hand the few pieces of leverage that we have away for free when we've been sent here to protect social security, protect medicaid, and protect medicare.

I’m Jewish and the son of Jewish refugees who immigrated to America, so some might accuse me of seeing antisemitism where it doesn’t exist. So it’s sadly reassuring to see that the great historian Timothy Snyder saw the Oval Office debacle the way I did:

Let’s just cut through the bullshit: Donald Trump is a Russian asset. Putin has something on Trump, he always has. Who knows what it is, but whatever it is, the consequences for the world are clear: The current President of the United States is a Russian asset.

When a judge stops the president from doing something illegal, that’s not a “threat to democracy,” that’s a check on the president’s power. That's the whole damn point.

Yet another giant conflict of interest for Elon Musk. He's robbing the national treasury even as he attacks it: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
Trump’s “Iron Dome” looks like just another payday for Elon Musk
An American replication of Israel's defense system doesn’t make sense. But, experts say, it will likely set up SpaceX for big government contracts.

These men are working relentlessly to dismantle the US system of checks and balances—and for now, they are succeeding. When will Americans stop them?

RFK Jr also believes stupid conspiracy theories about Ukraine. What a shocker. Seems like believing russian disinfo about Ukraine is a litmus test for joining Trump's inner circle. Why would that be (rhetorical!)

1/9 The real G is in the house! Slavoj Žižek is calling out the double standards and misconceptions of the left about the war in Ukraine. European leftists should definitely pay attention to his insights!

6/7 The only way for Europe to address this issue is through unity, which is why Musk is attempting to support far-right candidates in European elections. These candidates are anti-EU and will only serve to divide and weaken the continent.

5/7 Due to Trump's actions, the US will be perceived as an unreliable ally, prompting many Western nations to seek to reduce their dependence on the US in the future. This could ultimately lead to a decline in US exports over the long term.

4/7 Before the election, Trump's supporters appeared to be very concerned about inflation. Now, they will experience the impact of real inflation as a result of their misguided vote. They are about to discover the consequences!

3/7 Trump and his administration are working hard to undermine US hegemony as quickly as possible. The US can only compete with china by leveraging its alliances, yet Trump is taking steps to damage those very partnerships.
