Massie: Previous presidents told us to go to war over WMDs that did not exist. Now it's the same playbook. Except we're told that drugs are the WMDs. If it were about drugs, we'd bomb Mexico or China or Colombia. This is about oil and regime change.

Yesterday, at a threats hearing, an FBI official testified that “antifa” is a major national security threat, but couldn’t explain its structure, location, or membership. Meanwhile, the White House quietly released a new National Security Strategy that elevates mass migration as the defining threat.

AOC: And they are able to radicalize a generation of young boys in particular, away from healthy masculinity and into an insecure masculinity that requires the domination of others who are poorer, browner, darker, or a different gender than them.

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

Yes there are millions of people who buy in to white Christian nationalism and some have shown how to turn it into very profitable businesses, but at its core is ignorance, racism, fear, insecurity, and perversion of the teachings of Jesus.

Phang: If you were scrolling on social media and saw a dog locked up in the middle of the Everglades—in the sun, in the heat, in the humidity—the outrage would be wild, wouldn’t it?

But then—we’re okay with human beings being treated like that?

Two phrases that need to be retired:
“We are better than this.” (We’re not.)

Greta Thunberg has spent the last 20 months condemning the Gaza genocide & is now on a flotilla headed to Gaza.

Ms. Rachel has leveraged her entire platform to condemn the Gaza genocide & to humanize Palestinian children.

These 2 women have more courage than all public official globally Combined.❤️

ALABAMA: Leonardo Garcia Venegas is an American Citizen. He had a “Real ID”. It didn’t matter — because to Trump’s American Gestapo, brown is brown.

Republicans are taking marching orders from a rambling, delusional fraud, and reporters still pretend he’s a serious policymaker.

Trump just said they’re not cutting “anything meaningful.”

That’s rich—unless you rely on Medicaid, food assistance, or public schools.

The head of our country’s government is in the early stages of consolidating total power. We must of course reject this, but that is not enough. We have to respond by creating a different and better kind of American politics than we have seen before.

Guys, guys, guys. It’s not math. It’s not finance. It’s not economics.

It’s all about psychology. Abnormal psychology.

Read the DSM-5’s chapters on Cluster B personality disorders.
