My Dad felt a responsibility to be an informed citizen and vote. One time in my youth during a political conversation I said, “I don’t care.” My Father looking shocked replied, “You don’t care?" I try to make up for that time when I disappointed him.

Letting his "creep" flag fly!

What is the job of a vice president? Someone school
this man on what it is and how to do it professionally.

This administration is so tiring.

Well Trump got his photo ops to take away from the Nobel Peace Prize loss... of which he was never a contender!

His world is every day a new episode in Bubbleville.

Incredible their outrageous behavior. Deport Noem for being a threat to American democracy and just an all around terrible person. Send her to El Salvador.

Watters is the guy who took the air out of the car tires of a woman he was interested in. He did this so he could offer her a ride home. BTW, he was married at the time.

ICE has been deployed to *provoke* civilians, not to protect them. They want to throw tear gas canisters and get people on the streets riled up, all to create footage for Fox News and Newsmax, et al., that will be used as a pretext for imposing martial law to lower voting rates in Democratic cities.

The only violence I’ve been seeing in Portland is from the so-called Feds!!!

Keep sharing these videos; it’s evidence.

Interesting... and comforting ... the conservative publications that are also not signing.

I look at ICE agents and see J6ers, Kyle Rittenhouse, Proud Boys and white supremacists. They want to bully and use their weapons so badly it comes out in their body language.

WTF 🤬
Goons brutally pushed a peaceful protester to the ground and dragged them across the floor.

History matters:

"Kristallnacht was state-sponsored vandalism and arson."

"Nov. 9–10, 1938, the Nazi regime coordinated ... antisemitic violence in Nazi Germany... {It was} supposed to look like an unplanned outburst of popular anger against Jews."

Nazis leaders planned it backed by Hitler.

It's the "money" they listen to. Thiel's lectures are full of young men hoping to jump on the gravy train.

Huw C. Davies @huwcdavies.bsky.social · 3d

Reading Thiel, Yarvin, Peterson et al. makes you realise what passes for intellectual iconoclasm these days is all absolute bollocks. Why anyone gives any of these people the time of day let alone credibility is baffling.
