I’m sick to death of people saying we’re “descending” into fascism. The fascism is ALREADY here. THIS IS WHAT IF FEELS LIKE.
And if you’re not feeling it, it’s probably because you’re one of the “good Germans.”

The 'Threat to Democracy' Is Over
It's time to admit that the fascism we feared is already here.

Congrats, they heard you! The Social Security Administration has decided tonight to abandon its plans to end phone service for millions of Americans filing retirement and disability claims. Thank you to all who shared our post and made calls today—you did it!

Dismantling the Department of Education has nothing to do with improving outcomes for our kids, it’s simply about taking away resources from our public schools.

Kelly: When I was flying in combat over Iraq during the first Gulf War, I didn’t expect that there was a 10-year-old kid sitting in South Africa who would one day become the richest guy in the world and call me a traitor for doing my job. Now, he kind of acts like a 12-year-old kid

57 companies are responsible for 80% of global greenhouse gas emissions since 2016.

These companies include fossil fuel giants like Chevron, Shell, and BP, who have been raking in record profits.

The profits of Big Oil should not be more important than the future of our planet.

What’s worse?

(1) having your mother call you out as a dirt bag in an email published in the New York Times

(2) having a porn star you paid $130K in hush money pick little plastic mushrooms depicting you off a tray on the Jimmy Kimmel show

The next FBI director will be a conspiracy theorist who threatened to jail members of the media who criticized that orange fascist. Trump isn’t even pretending to give a shit about this country anymore.

Holy crap a woman sent this letter to Pete Hegseth :

“You are an abuser of women—that is the ugly truth and I have no respect for any man that belittles, lies, cheats, sleeps around, and uses women for his own power and ego”

Oh did I mention the woman IS HIS MOTHER

I served as a US ambassador and know hundreds of others

Never met one before who hired a prostitute to seduce their brother-in-law or sent a videotape of the encounter to their sister

Or who committed 18 felonies & was pardoned by another in-law

I guess the job qualifications are changing…

So, Trump isn’t just selling Bibles — now he’s selling Bibles with his name engraved on them.

And the MAGA sheep will buy them because they actually believe the adjudicated rapist who bragged about grabbing women by the pussy is “devout.”
