The entire MAGA campaign encapsulated in one unironic tweet.

This would have been a SNL parody just a few years ago.

Now it’s the naked official policy position of the United States of Fascist America.

The only thing that matters in this country is money.

If you have enough money, the richest, most powerful people will say "things happen" to describe the drugging, murder, and dismemberment of a journalist.

And it's not just DJT. It's all your favorites.

The cowardice of the average big firm lawyer in just one paragraph.

As a sign of how dumb and racist our society is, this person not only has 1.8 million twitter followers but also directly influences the actions of the President and his cabinet.

Big business and their fascist Trump administration puppets in the Trump administration are doing everything they can to make themselves richer and keep you poor.

In shocking news, the Feds are lying. While you should never trust the FBI, it’s a whole new game with Trump.

Soon they’ll tell you organizers are terrorists. They’ll arrest a bunch after telling scary sounding lies about them. They might kill some people.

Don’t believe a word they say. Ever.

Hahaha, yes, for real. Someone build a time machine and say this to Van Jones 10 years ago.

Then come back to the present and tell the rest of these clowns to shut the fuck up forever: Schumer, Pelosi, Jeffries, Elon, Ackman, Thiel, Yarvin, Klein, Yglesias, and so many more.

Good to see they understand this concept. Now, go back to virtually every SCT decision under Trump’s rule and apply it.

Epic World Series but don’t forget Mark Walters profits from private prisons and ICE surveillance.

The billionaire class that owns your favorite team (including mine) probably supports Trump, ICE kidnappings and murders in the Caribbean. If they don’t agree, they are at least willing to ignore his overt racism so long as they make more money.

One way the media keeps you uninformed is to treat billionaires as experts.

Why is Gates’ opinion about climate change important? Is he a scientist, a PhD student, or a researcher in the field?

No, he’s just a rich businessman and funder. The only angle should be how this makes him richer.

This explicitly means Trump can order your murder, produce no evidence, simply by claiming you were a terrorist.

After your murder, the @nytimes.com will run a both sides piece saying some legal experts claim your murder was illegal but the President said it’s not, so it’s really a toss up.
October 22, 2025 at 7:40 PM
Trump reinforces the bedrock principle that you should always be skeptical of US governmental titles, departments, designations, and press releases. This was true before a racist lunatic became president and billionaires and Fox News talking heads took cabinet roles, but it couldn't be clearer now.

Is one person writing all the headlines?

Same script for NYT, WaPo, CNN, Fox, NPR:

Palestinians are “prisoners.” Israelis are “hostages.”

That’s not journalism. That’s propaganda.

You don’t need a sophisticated analysis or close reading to know the @nytimes.com has abandoned all pretense of journalistic integrity.

These are extrajudicial murders. The U.S. deserves whatever counterattack these people’s families come up with.

Chemerinsky's repeated claims of "rampant antisemitism" at the UCs, along with the capitulation of UC officials in settlements in lawsuits like Frankel v. Regents, and Biden/Bass/Newsom's constant condemnation of "antisemitic" pro-Palestine protesters gave Trump everything he needed.
October 8, 2025 at 8:28 PM
When the history of 2020s US fascism is written, irresponsible New York Times headlines like this will be used to show the complicity of major media.

Trump is overtly saying he will fabricate an insurrection to justify the use of the military to take over US cities and the NYT sanewashes him.
October 6, 2025 at 11:49 PM
Political dissidents were forced to wear the red triangle badge in the camps.

Today, unhinged lawyers argue the same symbol is a "true threat" of violence in the anti-genocide/pro-Palestine protest context.

A federal court in LA recently agreed, but movement lawyers are fighting the decision.

Has a single democrat talked publicly about the Executive Order that attempts to convert non-profits and governmental critics into terrorists?

The fascists openly taunt them about how little resistance there is, and they still can't muster the courage to speak.
October 1, 2025 at 4:00 PM
Democratic leadership’s abject failure to ever, for a single moment, act as an opposition party isn’t lost on Trump.

He expected a fight. They laid down.

156 people are watching Hakeem Jeffries livestream.

These things are related, but they won’t learn.

Focus on what you can do locally.
October 1, 2025 at 2:56 AM
it's not just that they are fascists or that Biden knowingly handed the keys to the military and the fed to them.

It's that they are always on message. Trump will blame dems and praise himself in a dependent clause responding to a question about the weather at the drop of a hat.
September 30, 2025 at 10:11 PM
Maybe, just maybe, we should consider these guys didn't really care about free speech afterall.

I know it's a stretch, but is it possible all they ever cared about was making money---so long as they could continue being the submoronic racist, sexist, homophobes they've always been.
September 30, 2025 at 9:53 PM
If Trump wants to find people advocating for political violence, he could start here.
September 29, 2025 at 11:14 PM
Really incredible how dumb these people are. I mean, the ADL is garbage but saying Christian identity is a hate group comprised of white supremacists is 100% correct and has nothing to do with saying Christianity is a hate group.

On the other hand, maybe we should just let them fight it out.
September 29, 2025 at 5:37 AM
Typical antifa blm leftist type.
