A history lesson on how fascism originated and how it rose to power. It reinforces why we should all be anti-fascist, Antifa. It also shows the results of dictator powers gone wrong. Fight back on the 18th, while we still can, before it is too late.

Here's the fallacy. People say that Tr*mp assaulted 26 women and children. That’s not true. He was caught 26 times doing that. The real figure is about seven times higher (180).

When someone has dementia, their personality changes. Their behavior is UNINTENTIONAL. This MFkr has been acting this way his whole fucking life. Don’t blame dementia! That’s not fair to people with dementia! They aren’t pedophilic sociopaths committing TREASON with INTENTION.

STEPHANOPOULOS: I didn't insinuate anything. I asked you whether Tom Homan accepted $50k as was heard on an audio tape recorded by the FBI in September 2024. You did not answer the question. Thank you for your time.

“I spent three nights and three days in federal custody. During that time, I was never told what I was charged with, was not allowed to shower despite being covered in tear gas and pepper spray, had no phone call to my family, and no access to an attorney.” - George Retes, U.S. citizen and veteran.

I’m a US citizen and a veteran. ICE arrested me for no reason.

Jailed for three days without an explanation or ability to notify anyone, George Retes argues the only path to healing starts with the government taking accountability for its actions.

Last I checked the GOP controls all branches of our government.

Tweet from MeidasTouch: “Wow that’s crazy. Who’s running the federal government?”
Below, Acyn’s tweet quotes Rep. Mike Johnson: “If you look at polling, people’s faith in the federal government is at an all-time low. Why? Because they don’t see that it’s being done well.”
A C-SPAN screenshot shows Johnson speaking with another man standing beside him.

JD Vance is a coward. He sold his soul for a seat of power. He sold his soul to someone he called “Hitler” to advance his own career. JD Vance is everything that’s wrong with our politics today.

WELKER: Is the DOJ acting on orders from the president to prosecute his political opponents?

JD VANCE: No ... You know who we haven't prosecuted? Joe Biden, Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton ... he's allowed to have opinions about law enforcement

Back in the 90s when neo-nazi skinheads were everywhere, people wore colored laces in their Doc Martens to signify which side they were on. Red meant nazi, one black one white meant anti-racist, blue meant neutral, and green meant you like frogs and were anti-fascist. Been thinking about that a lot.

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. Disgusted with all the Liberals who're congratulating her. It just confirms that Liberal morality is to use Brown people & then throw them under the bus once the Liberal has gained power.

The solutions proposed for New Zealand's (and virtually every other country's) problems are always like:
"We need to make people work for more years"
"We have to cut back on services, I'm sorry, there is just no other way"
"We have to cut benefits for young people"

never:
"We need to tax the rich"
