WWII signaled the defeat of fascism in the world. The good guys won when they crushed it. The US was and has been anti-fascism ever since. Up until right-wing extremists rebranded antifa a "liberal" ideal. It's actually as American as apple pie.

"It is ridiculous that antifa has become this boogeyman. If they're going to tell us they are going to find the founder of Antifa, isn't the founder of Antifa...Winston Churchill? FDR? Didn't they lead a war against fascism? Wasn't that anti-fascism?" - me

Maybe Stephen Miller will finally understand his boss's "wonderful secret" with Epstein if he ever has a daughter.

They consider anything that goes against them "evil." Unfortunately, what they don't realize is that they've been deceived into thinking that their own actions are God's will, when in reality, they're corrupted and evil.

It really is bizarre to me that every single member of GOP House leadership & the admin has decided their coordinated talking point this week is that the No Kings demonstrations this Sat are essentially acts of domestic terrorism. Are they that afraid of free & peaceful assembly?

Add your name: Standing up to ICE is a Christ-like action. Once again, Christian clergy and lay leaders are showing moral leadership by resisting Trump's cruel attacks on immigrants and people of color. ICE and its allies are attacking them for it. act.faithfulamerica.org/sign/clergy-...

He gives $20 Billion of OUR dollars to bailout Argentina without consulting Congress or the American people. Does that seem like the actions of a KING to you?

Join us & let him know just what you think about that this Saturday, 10/18

50501: The People’s Movement ❌👑 @50501movement.bsky.social · 1d

The secret power of a people’s movement is that it’s random.

It’s neighbors protecting immigrants from ICE. It’s millions canceling Disney+. It’s a man throwing a sandwich. It’s inflatable frogs dancing.

Dictators struggle to fight a movement, because they can’t do what they want most—control us.

Q: We've seen images out of Chicago of federal agents shooting faith leaders with pepper balls and arresting journalists. Where's the limit for you on what's acceptable conduct by federal agents?

MIKE JOHNSON: I've not seen them cross the line yet.
