Dr. @timothysnyder.bsky.social has written many powerful works, but this one stopped me dead in my tracks when I first read it. Please take the time, and share widely.

It is shameful that we have to talk about the President of the United States this way. But it is who he is. He is behaving exactly the way you would expect a convicted felon and adjudicated rapist who was granted immunity by John Roberts to behave. Know your enemy.

The “if she had complied, she’d still be alive” line that we’re hearing from ICE defenders is the mantra of apologists for security forces in dictatorships through the ages.

Standing out in #Minneapolis demonstrations are whistles blaring.

Prepared outdoor enthusiasts carry “survival whistles” for safety.

A standard referee whistle hits 113 decibels.

A survival whistle hits 120 db.

Some even hit 150 db.

Consider adding a survival whistle to your outdoor safety kit.

Do you think the US Oil Executives called Rex Tillerson, the guy who was SOS and called Trump, his boss, a phucking moron?

Over four decades, the NRA et al softened the ground for the current authoritarian takeover. My hope is that their silence in the face of the government tyranny they screamed about for all those years will bankrupt them in the eyes of the public forever.
I want to point out that the NRA and other anti-government groups had been screaming about the threat of "obey or die" for decades. Yet now that we're here, crickets. That's because they were softening the ground for the present moment.

35 years ago, I walked into a rundown gas station, the local Republican headquarters in a small county in TX, and registered to vote, beginning my love for all things politics. 12 months later I was working on the Bush41 reelection campaign and for the next dozen years worked Republican politics,

So we kidnapped a foreign head of state claiming he had been indicted for specific crimes. We have a head of state that was indicted for specific crimes (and convicted of other crimes). Who is coming for him?

Merry Christmas to those who celebrate from this radical left scum, antifa member, who is looking forward to destroying America or at least this fascist administration in 2026.

Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house

Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse;

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,

And 1 million Epstein files appeared from thin air

On this, the last night of Chanukah, I wish blessings upon those of you in this non Christian nation, those who are not antisemites. We are generations of Jewish veterans who have fought and died for this country. Just as it’s not a whites only nation for all are welcome here.

Hey Mr Speaker, you’re number two in line for the Presidency. Stop pretending you don’t know what’s going on. If you really don’t know then you should resign.

Mr. President, I'm ugly, stupid and I work for Network Z, a horrible network. Now that we have that out of the way, answer the F'ing question.
It's not hard. It just takes accepting the fact that this job is worth walking away from with dignity. When you look in the mirror, what do you want to see.

Congresswoman Ilhan Omar's son was pulled over by ICE and forced to prove he is an American.

Two options:

1) ICE deliberately targeted him.

2) ICE is stopping all non-White people without any probable cause and forcing them to prove they are citizens.

Hard to say which option is scarier.
