It is fascism.
At a journalism event I asked about using the word so journalism can cover and explain it. I was told that we can't call fascists fascists because it would put off the fascists.

It's hard to adequately describe how scary it is to watch mainstream political journalists barely push back against a sitting U.S. president accepting a $400M plane from a foreign government that would literally be designated as an emergency command-and-control center during a nuclear war.

Just a non-gentle reminder of this guy's past. People knew who he was and what he stood for. His resume was blatantly clear. Now, he is doing the same on a massive scale and with help.

Elon Musk’s staffers visited the U.S. Institute of Peace, accompanied by two FBI agents. They were met at the door by a lawyer who informed them that the institute holds “private and independent status as a non-executive branch agency.” Following this, the staffers left.

We the people. Not they the billionaires. Not they the corporations. And not them the politicians.

We the people, will and must rise up.
We The People won’t kneel to wannabe tyrants. It’s our turn to fight, resist, and win.

Dorothy B. Porter changed libraries 💜

The Dewey Decimal System used to only have two classifications for Black people: 325 (colonization) & 326 (slavery). Each book by a Black person was put into one of these classifications. A book of poetry? Classified as colonization.
