(🧵) I’m going to say some things that may cost me followers. That’s only appropriate, given that what I say in this thread is about exactly that: how utterly meaningless everything is right now besides saving America—because without rule of law and democracy, nothing we dream of will ever come true.

She alleged in the past that it was former Israeli PM Ehud Barak but we can’t know that for sure because Trump, Bondi, Patel and Johnson are hiding this person’s identity from the public by blocking release of the Epstein files.

Whoever it is.

For some reason.

OK, so our "Secretary of War" currently has two big priorities: (1) murdering innocent fishermen in the Caribbean, and (2) endangering the lives of commuters in Southern California.

Perhaps, we are seeing one of the downsides to having a drunk TV talk show chatterbox running our military.

A serious study from a Harvard University political scientist presents a statistic worth remembering: Around the world, once 3.5% of the population became engaged in sustained, non-violent campaigns of resistance, change has always happened.Democracy is inevitable, when the people are determined.

I've seen some worrying posts from the online left about how No Kings is (correctly) organized by neoliberals and neocons with no real demands, and then (wrongly) dismissing it as unimportant or not worth attending

Rallies of this size against an increasingly authoritarian state are a net good

The grift never stops

America, what have we become ?

They're locking up hardworking migrants who pay taxes and DO NOT GET FREE HEALTHCARE
They do the hard work, the dirty work, for hardly any money

This grifter owes $374K
And watch
He won't pay
He grifts

Former Rep. George Santos says he will only pay restitution if he's required by law

The former congressman had previously been ordered to pay approximately $374,000 in restitution. President Donald Trump commuted his sentence last week.
