Woe to you who passed #Trump's evil "One Big [BRUTAL] Bill" legislation. It will make misery for the poor, rob people of dignity, exploit the defenseless, and take advantage of the homeless. #Isaiah 10:1

$billionaire propagandists own and control the most influential media outlets in N. America and are targeting and exploiting working class Americans; to keep us divided while they undermine working class wealth, health, safety & political influence.

Anyone denying is lying. We are under attack.

Do not lose hope.

You are not alone.

Most of America rejects this.

The people do not want an authoritarian regime—we do not want oligarchy, we do not want Christian nationalism, we do not want techno-fascism.

And we’re more powerful than they’ll ever be. The people united will never be defeated.

Angus: Canadians need to be really ready. We are upping our investment in military spending significantly. We are now procuring from the Europeans—whereas before, we would have just gone to the United States as usual to buy gear. We’re not buying gear from the United States.

US fiscal folly could create big, beautiful debt spiral
The U.S. tax and spending bill passed on July 3 is expected to add more than $3 trillion to the country’s deficit over the next decade. If the current debt trajectory continues unabated, it could set off a slow motion debt spiral that could endanger the Federal Reserve’s independence.

To the “I voted for this” crowd:

You voted for the guy who gutted the National Weather Service. Now we’ve got dead families and missing kids in Texas, because storm warnings didn’t go out in time. And he gutted FEMA so they can’t properly respond to disasters.

That’s what you voted for?

The fact we have secret police whisking people off the streets doesn’t get enough attention. It ain’t normal and we’re further down the road to authoritarianism than you think.

Ironic that the people who hate America most are going to celebrate the 4th of July.

If we're cutting medical care for Americans, it's only fair to end lifetime healthcare for Congress too.
You'll get over it, Mitch. Or not.

the big questions for american democracy going forward seem to be (1) can the GOP actually build the federal police state they just funded, (2) in time to finish before democratic checks can be established, and (3) whether dems gaining power would actually try to stop/dismantle it

Today marks the day when a bunch of poor people upended the rich, had a revolution, completely abolished the government, started and won a war, arrested the tyrant and his henchmen, did more in 3 years than 235 years of elections could hope to accomplish, and made a new nation.

Time to do it again.
