Antifa isn’t an organization.

When they say “antifa” they’re saying ain’t-fascism.

And they want to destroy anti-fascism.

This regime wants to wipe anti-fascism from existence.

Only fascists want to destroy anti-fascism.

The ‘currency swap’ has been finalized. Argentina got their $20 billion and gave us an unknown number of pesos, while he cuts healthcare and human services for Americans. Don’t call it a bailout, they say — it’s like saying tariffs aren’t taxes. What happened to America First?

MAGA cultists have taken to talking about the top 1% of earners paying 40% of the federal taxes while the bottom half of earners pay 3%.

They neglect to mention the bottom half only earn 11.5% of the total income.

77 million people combined make less than half what the top 1.5 million earn.

Write to your city, county & state officials. Demand they remove any Dominion and Liberty Vote equipment before they are used in any elections. Not just for electronic voting, but tabulation as well.

Talk to your friends & neighbors. Write letters to the editor. Call local media. Scream about it.

I look around at what Trump & his cult have done to this country & remember when the right accused President Obama of dividing us simply by having the gall to be black AND president.

A black president so enraged a huge chunk of white America that many voted for the biggest cunt they could find.

I knew Fox News was theater. I just didn't realize it was a repertory theater that recycles actors for different roles.

You'd think a company that had to pay $787,000,000 for deceiving its viewers would be a little more careful about blatantly continuing the practice.

So yesterday a reporter asked Donald Trump about the writ of habeas corpus, and he had no idea what it was.

"I don't know," he said. "I'd rather leave that to Kristi."

Well, It turns out Sen. Hassan asked Kristi Noem about it in May, and this was Noem's response:

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · May 20

HASSAN: What is habeas corpus?

NOEM: Habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country

HASSAN: That's incorrect

Mike "Grindr" Johnson is very angry.

America is pretty angry with him and the other Republican cowards in office, too.

Republicans control the White House, the Senate and the House and STILL can't get their shit together and lead effectively.

Pathetic, spineless, weak cowards.

In a democracy based on freedom and the rule of law, we don’t jail public officials—or anyone—because of policy disagreements. We need everyone to repudiate this nonsense because a president cannot act as a prosecutor, judge, jury and dictator.

Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.

"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."

Secret Service works with local police when Madam Skeletor is going somewhere. Clearing of streets and safety perimeters seem pretty basic for a high profile visit.

Seems like the Secretary of Homeland Security should know that.

You don't think she would be obtuse for political purposes, do you?

Funny how anyone who ever MET a Democrat is blasted all over the news if they do something illegal, but this dyed-in-the-wool MAGA cult member that worked on Republican campaigns sexually tortures a man and then murders him and there’s barely a peep about the crime let alone his MAGAness.
