BREAKING: Trump and Republicans say they’ll focus their efforts on defeating Native American candidate Deb Haaland, who is running for governor of New Mexico.

She has protected sacred lands and stood up to bullies. It’s obvious why they want her to lose.

Happy heavenly birthday.

It does read mainly as a firehose of shit.

Reason about how dumb some of them are and are constructed.

They ARE messaging orders. Largely. They state clearly (or sometimes a bit Orwellianly) what he and the GOP stand for.

The good news Dems can EASILY message off this stuff AND get TV time.
One thing that I keep trying to remind myself is that the first couple months of the last Trump administration felt like the world was ending, but a bunch of stuff got fought off, and we ended up with a less overwhelming environment. We can still fight and it won’t be like this forever.

Why you shouldn’t thank Trump for “saving TikTok”

To be completely clear, the naked manipulation in question:

1. Biden said he would not enforce the Tiktok ban.

2. Bytedance VOLUNTARILY shut off US access anyway (overnight),

3. Then turned it back on and praised "Trump's efforts" to restore it.

100% manufactured by Bytedance, start to finish.
Please tell me no one who I’m connected to, even tangentially, has fallen for this naked manipulation on tiktok

That's what the tiktok ban is about. Otherwise Temu etc. would have been banned long ago www.commondreams.org/news/mitt-ro...

In 1933, Hitler seized control of radio, press, and film to silence dissent and spread propaganda. Now, Trump moves to dominate TikTok, X, Insta, and Facebook. The warning signs are clear—it’s happening again.

I'm using that Chrome extension to save as many of my TikTok favorites as I can. At least I'll have all the Squid Game edits I've collected over the past few days, right?

Again, my utmost respect for @polygon.com for reporting on Dreams on a Pillow when so many sites and influencers that claim to stand for inclusivity and diversity and equality have ducked speaking about the genocide, about Palestine, and about Palestinian stories.
