Authoritarianism is a cancer. And it's growing, metastasizing. In America. Now.

YOU are the cure. Do your part and join us on Saturday.

Do it for your country. For the Constitution. For your freedoms.

While you still can.

Well, you have to decide for yourself. IMHO, which you are free to take or leave, MT acts with integrity and truthfulness, while Trump is a pathological liar and unable to tell the truth about anything, even though he says otherwise. I have little or no reason to doubt what they say. Again, imho.

Show me the evidence to the contrary then.

You also need an opposition party that keeps behaving as though we're not sliding into fascism, that refuses to exercise pushback that goes beyond strong words and relying on systems already captured. That is the role that Dems are playing today, from Congress to Governors.

I’m sure the people who were *pissed* that Hunter Biden sold paintings are equally furious about Barron Trump reportedly being tapped for the TikTok board.

Right?

Hey @jaketapper.bsky.social, I'm no expert on cognitive illnesses, but it feels a bit detached from reality for a sitting POTUS to forget that he was in power during an attack on the U.S. Capitol, doesn't it? Do you know anyone in journalism with experience covering dementia-like symptoms?

Congress better hurry up and settle the shutdown before everyone figures out they’re nonessential personnel.

CBS reporter Edward R. Murrow embodied what a journalist should be: someone who holds power to account instead of capitulating to it.

Over 70 years later, his segment denouncing Joe McCarthy’s congressional witch hunts rings truer than ever.

"To bring a democracy under authoritarian control, you need more than a strongman. You need politicians who will assure the public, as we slide toward one-man rule, that nothing odd is happening. That’s the role Johnson is playing in Trump’s takeover of America." www.thebulwark.com/p/speaker-mi...

Every Trump needs his Johnson: a flunky who will rationalize his crimes.
