It's pretty obvious that a lot of US mainstream media either doesn't recognise authoritarianism or doesn't want to call it out. Either way, it's an excellent way to destroy trust in your institution.

Isn’t it weird to watch the Trump regime spout numbers and statistics and you know they are making it up on the spot?
Every number that comes out of their mouths was made up one second prior to saying it. They lie. Every number. Every prediction. Every statistic. Lies.

Ice needs to be abolished
AOC: We need to be talking about ICE agents and the cowardly policy of covering their faces — and, in many cases, their identification… The idea that we’re going to allow a paramilitary force to bloom, one that isn’t accountable to the Constitution… we’ve got another thing coming.

What If China Wins the Trade War?
The United States could still prevail if it does everything right. The problem is that the Trump administration is doing everything wrong.

I’ve long said that if rule of law ceases to exist such that the president can get away with deliberately ignoring court orders, the country is no longer a democracy by definition. That’s currently being tested in the US—and it’s up to the judiciary to not back down.

The capitulation of the law firms, like the prior collapse of Republican elected officials, is a lesson in the rot that's hollowed out so many of the pillars of our establishment beneath a nice and presentable surface.

Yesterday, every single Republican & 30 Democrats supported Trump's $8.8 billion bomb shipment to help Netanyahu continue his annihilation of the Palestinian people.

Social Security is also separately funded--but you know who is pushing ending SS? Corporate employers who are paying 1/2 of Social Security taxes. Just one more BIG TAX CUT for corporate America.

I wrote this even before Schumer capitulated and voted in support of Donald Trump, and his vote confirmed my point.
I argue that Chuck Schumer must resign, and Senate Democrats must lead the charge to replace him as Senate leader, or be counted as complicit: www.qasimrashid.com/p/chuck-schu...

Hey WA, @gluesenkampperez.house.gov voted for the SAVE Act which threatens to take away the right to vote for millions of American citizens. If she is your elected official, let her get an earful about how you feel.
@gluesenkampperez.house.gov was 1 of only 5 dems to vote "yay" previously on the #SAVEAct. I voted for her and now she's trying to make sure I can't ever do so again. I'm a disabled social worker she also ignored when I asked her for better legislation on cyberstalking and healthcare providers.

Use your social networks to make sure people understand what is happening and who is to blame. Republicans have sold out this country to billionaires at the expense of seniors, kids, veterans and more. MAKE THEM PAY by making everyone know who is exactly to blame.
It's nearly 5am and Republicans just rammed through their pro-billionaire, anti-middle class budget blueprint.
In order to pass massive tax giveaways for billionaires, they're going to defund Medicaid, slash veterans benefits, & force kids to go hungry.
