Reich speaks the truth. @rbreich.bsky.social
The brutality. The corruption. The lies.

Everything is on full display — and many Americans are beginning to learn an important lesson.

Watch.

Lift this up!!!
Just going to reiterate that in 2016 Trump inherited the lowest murder rate of any president in 50 years. He set reality aside, gave his “American Carnage” inaugural address, and was then the first president in 30 years to leave office with a higher murder rate than when he started.
...Voters really, really care about controlling immigration and crime. They just do. And if voters don’t think Democrats will take those issues seriously, they elect a garbage human like Trump who will seize the opportunity to expand his own power.

Someone who knew war, knew.
"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."

In deep red NE Washington, Newport has about 2,200 residents. Over 125 people out for #nokings. Lots of boomers, and lots of good vibes. #motherjones.

Our America. Right now.
I’ll see you in the streets.
Kristi Noem, Dr. Phil, and ICE went to this woman’s home in Huntington Park, CA at 6am to make a spectacle and you want me to be satisfied with @governor.ca.gov flowery words? Watch. It’s disgusting. Noem belongs in prison.

They want a civil war.
"She is basically saying it's time for civil war between the Trump administration and the people of Los Angeles and California and their elected leaders."
By now, we've all seen the video of Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) being forcibly removed and handcuffed for asking a question during Kristi Noem's press conference.

But what Noem said just moments before the video was taken is "classic authoritarian red-baiting," points out @davidcorn.bsky.social.

Critical mass is needed. Are you ready?
Please remember, there are millions of people who are going about their lives as though everything is normal right now. There are also folks who have no idea that we exist, including groups and organizations who could be great allies. Mobilizing and organizing all of them is a huge undertaking.

If you don’t have time to read OnTyranny, here are the salient points.
You have to see this.
