I have been waiting for this @ninaburleigh.bsky.social piece on Laura Loomer, and it did not disappoint. Excellent piece.

You know why it's Project 2025's goal to subjugate the women?
It's because they know women have the backbone to stand up to authoritarians.
Look at Olivia Troy, Liz Cheney and Cassidy Hutchinson.
Women will save this country if the Republicans don't succeed in disempowering us.

Yes we are. Too many people like @mlipsitt.bsky.social & my sister/mom have worked too hard and too many special needs kids have made great strives to turn back time and progress. It takes a village to do the work and it will take a city to ensure it continues to be funded.

That is why we march. 👊🏻

Maca Iglesias🇺🇸Thank You, President Biden🇺🇸 @rotterdamvvg.bsky.social · 22h

Please correct me if my memory is not accurate.

Didn't the MAGA Republicans spend the entire Biden presidency trying to impeach him based on allegations that he abused his office for his family's financial gain?

And why is it now ok for a president’s son to get a company board job?

For the confused:

- Fascism is evil.
- Nazis are bad.
- Russia is not our ally.
- Immigrants commit fewer crimes.
- Trans women are women.
- Violating due process is a crime.
- Unless you're full-blood Native, you are an immigrant or are descended from immigrants.

In Chicago, four vehicles descended and eight ICE agents moved in to kidnap a child.

She screams, “I’m 15,” as ICE yanks her from the car and kneels on her neck.

This is not about immigration enforcement.

It's about terrorizing Americans.

REPORTER: We know the president moved forward with mass layoffs. We're also learning there were significant cuts to staff at special education services. Are you comfortable with those cuts?

MIKE JOHNSON: I haven't seen the specifics of that and I don't know

Exact same reason why the most important flag to fly at the protests is the American one.

Because WE are the ones who are defending the values the flag stands for.

It never stood for fascist idealism.
It never stood for bigotry.
It never stood for cowardice abdication of authority to a king.

This @jvl.bsky.social piece gets at something I was trying to warn about years ago: People using "Antifa" as if it's a real organization, with an HQ and membership, were just laying out the foundation for Trump to say "Okay, you win, you're a real thing." /1

Are YOU Antifa?
