This is the reason fascist regimes always attack and demonize education and universities. If citizens are taught accurate history they oppose repeating vicious and cruel policies. Republicans are vicious and cruel.

Let's think about the various pillars of power that are propping up the authoritarian regime.

Our goal in nonviolent resistance is to undermine them.

We can isolate the authoritarian leaders. We can divide them from each other and from their supporters.

MAGA must be so proud.
Falling asleep…👇

National media outlets went on and on about Obama wearing a tan suit! They will say nothing about these two feckless ?????

I will never understand why Dems don’t use this in their campaigns?
Y’all, I think I found that welfare state the right wingers keep crying about

We need more like him.
MAJOR BREAKING: The challenger Joni Ernst privately feared the most has announced he’s ENTERING THE RACE!

Nathan Sage is a popular sports broadcaster and already has massive support. MAGA knows this Democrat can win. Today is not a good day for Joni Ernst. Let’s go!!

Thank you for this statement. PLEASE amass a group of other patriots like yourself, Michelle, Hilary, Bill, W and join Bernie and AOC on a “Save democracy” tour/rallies. We are in dire need of voices opposing fascism!
Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

The hatred and violence republicans have brought to our nation is unforgivable. What do these voters think will happen when they empower fascism? This EXACTLY, this is typical republican behavior. They laughed and joked when Pelosi was attacked by their cult - pardoned self described Nazi’s. Sick!

All these MAGA cultists speak with that insipid fake smile, Ala Sununu- it’s the new fascist smoke screen. The cultist women all get over Botox’ed and extensive fillers and voluminous hair extensions Ala puppy murderous Kristi Noam. MAGA is just a destructive, cruel reality show. Make up and all.
STEPHANOPOULOS: The president retweeted a post that said the market drop was part of a deliberate strategy. Is that the president's strategy?

HASSETT: Heh ha. The bottom line is the president has been talking about tariffs for 40 years. He's allowed to have an opinion.

S: So that is his strategy.

We need to double the crowds. Even in a historically red (turning purple) small town in California had almost 200 show up. At first there was a question if 50501 was legit - IT IS. In the past we drifted politically - we need to be intentional and active. Even on line speak out peacefully.

One of the best signs.

ABSOLUTELY- We have to keep the momentum momentum. It’s the only way to save our democracy!

So this is an admission that republicans not only following Hitler’s policies they idolize the most horrifically violent mo steps of all times. We are a sick lost nation.
