New pricing tiers at national parks based on who you are and where you come from is EXTREMELY Nazi stuff
The Trump administration is raising national parks' prices and adding fees for international tourists from next year in an "America-first" initiative, the Interior Department announced.
Trump admin hikes national parks prices by up to $170 for international tourists
The Interior Department said the "America-first" policy will see "resident-only patriotic fee-free days" on some holidays.

There are 50,000 food insecure children in Maine and 2 trans athletes. Every single candidate running for office who can drum up concern about the latter but has nothing to say about the former is telling on themselves. They don’t care about children. Only power. And they’ll hurt kids for it.
25 Nov 2025 @rikiwilchins.bsky.social -- In unusual move, Sen Susan Collins (R-ME) signs petition for referendum on the 2026 ballot that would bar trans students from sports teams, locker-rooms and bathrooms. She's in a hotly contested election & this is pbly one way to increase Rep turnout.

So a big part of the Project 2025 goals hinges on forcing women out of the workforce. The Heritage Foundation knows that women voters hold the most power in terms of sheer numbers. If they can push you out of the workforce, they can push you out of your voting rights.
Digging into the data of what's taking place with Black women unemployment and this graph is pretty damning.
You can see the EXACT month Black women's unemployment begins to splinter and that what hit us FIRST is now coming for all other women. This is #TheDoubleTax.

Lots of problems with this interview, but I love how our national political press still thinks it's a big gotcha when they get him to say Trump is a fascist. Everyone watching NBC agrees that Trump is a fascist.
WELKER: Just to be clear, do you think President Trump is a fascist?
MAMDANI: After President Trump said that, I said yes
WELKER: So you do
MAMDANI: That's something I've said in the past. I say it today. What I appreciated about the conversation is were not shy about the places of disagreement
