MAGA policies are deeply unpopular. People in huge numbers hate the Big Ugly Bill and are horrified by ICE.

Stay the course:

* Disrupt ICE

* Keep protesting

* Occupy public space

* Fight for fair 2026 elections

* Keep up the pressure on your legislators

* Help those in need

It's working.

How's the neoliberal version of the Democratic Party been working out for us?

"Without ICE abolition, criminal trials, court and electoral reform, the country will remain vulnerable to descending into full fascism. ... Another Democratic presidency that attempts to return to normalcy will doom us."

They’re acknowledging now that the people who called Trump a “fascist” were right. But somehow we’re still not to be trusted.

The GOP has been hard-selling the idea of voter fraud for some 20 years

And they've been largely successful, by several measures

Democrats need to get much better at combatting disinformation

Like, take it seriously as if it's a Cold War problem

Because it is
Voter fraud is not a real problem.

Our problem isn’t non-citizens illegally voting in our elections. The real problem is American citizens not voting in our elections.

And our even bigger problem is voter suppression.

What we're seeing today across this nation is ORGANIZING

That is how we will win 🐸

"The people of Minneapolis did not apply for a grant or beseech Democratic leaders in D.C. for guidance; they got together with their neighbors, mustered their courage, and built their own resistance machine"
Johnson keeps saying "trained activists" like he's saying "convicted murderers." This is essential to the right's project: if the left gets its shit together, that means its democratic participation is inherently illegitimate.

Won't you be my neighbor? ♥️

"We are all neighbors ...

The word I kept thinking about as I watched Bad Bunny’s joyous performance is a term that didn’t really exist on New Year’s Day 2026 yet has instantly provided a name to the current zeitgeist.

Neighborism."
How did Bad Bunny utter not one word about Trump or authoritarianism at the Super Bowl yet deliver the most power message in 60 years of the game?
