Hagueseth is out there committing war crimes without an actual war. That's... an achievement, I guess.

To be fair, the psy op was homegrown when it was the oligarch-funded astroturf Tea Party movement, but it's only natural for democracy-destroying ideological cancer to draw foreign investors.

This is from 2016, but it's even more obvious now. I guarantee you *every* ICE thug would describe himself as a patriot.

Republican policies have never been good for "the economy," just for already-rich assholes consumed by greed for more.

Charlie Kirk was awful. What was done to Charlie Kirk was awful. Republicans only care when awful things are done to people who share and advance their awful agenda.

It's hard to capture the sheer absurdity of regretful Trump voters, but this comes close.

Most of them are loyal apparatchiks so amoral that they don't require bribery to hide Trump's pedophilia. But it's still a great double burn.

Also, I want a running headcount of pardoned January 6 insurrectionists who land jobs with Shitler's gestapo.

Three years ago, every Republican in the House voted against requiring the FBI, Homeland Security, and the Pentagon to investigate and report on White supremacist/ neo-Nazi activity within the military and federal law enforcement. It's not just Trump and his cronies, it's the whole damned party.

Today is "la Fête nationale," a.k.a. Bastille Day, which celebrates the 236th anniversary of a key turning point of the French Revolution, the storming of the infamous prison which symbolized tyranny and had been used to hold many political prisoners.

The Declaration of Independence is a document no honest person can read without thinking that Trump bears far more resemblance to King George III than he does any of the signers.

Republicans MUST lie about urban America; the truth would undermine their agenda. Then again, since *every* matter of objective fact undermines their agenda, cities are just one sliver of what they are compelled to lie about.

Even the oligarch-owned big media outlets that promoted Trump's elections with distortion and disinformation are estimating ~5 million No Kings protestors. With every motivation to low-ball the number, their estimate still makes it the 2nd or 3rd largest single-day protest in U.S. history. #8647now

Over 10 million Americans attended No Kings protests in major cities and small towns across the country, demonstrating the citizenry's growing, highly energized opposition to fascism -- while Dear Leader's pathetic parade was poorly attended by a listless crowd. Keep up the good work!

At AthFest, we enjoyed each other's company for hours, maybe flirted a little. Then we started talking on the phone every day. One thing led to another, and now... we're planning our wedding!

Three years ago today I posted this meme, which led directly to the curse being broken: My old acquaintance Samantha replied "Saaame!" She was getting divorced. I said supportive things. A few weeks later, we laid eyes on each other for the first time in 15+ years when I came to town for AthFest.

Absolutely right. Lawless, heartless, community-shattering assaults on immigrants by masked thugs IS violence. Attacking peaceful protesters exercising their First Amendment rights with tear gas, rubber bullets, and military force just piles on more lawless violence.
