As a Democratic Strategist, I believe now is the time to be open and honest with the American people.

Which is why I believe we should be completely uncritical of the system that produced the leadership and circumstances of our present moment, and instead blame one man.

I get paid 789k, by the way

People are asking a lot “how is this happening?” It’s happening the way abolitionists have warned you for decades it’s happening — you can’t dehumanize whole groups of people, pay for their brutalization & not expect for more bounty hunters to come.

I understand this sentiment. But we need to accept that this country is the most propagandized country on planet Earth.

Our justice system is pay to play, we have an underclass of undocumented servants, and for decades, studies show no democracy exists at a national level.

We need new everything
If you voted for Trump and the GOP or you just voted for the GOP, this is all on you.

This era is turning me into a vulgar Federalist. In the sense that giving powers to and among the States advances the rule of The People. Reaching the rule of The People requires decentralizing power. Ideally, we decentralize power until each person provides an equal amount of say in our decisions.
Secretary Noem has forfeited her right to lead. I’m calling on her to resign.

Gregory Bovino must also be fired.

No one, not an ICE agent, not a federal officer, not a president, is above the law.

I am begging people to please DECENTER Trump voters. It's just not helpful.

Alex Pretti… This is who Trump’s secret police killed today in Minnesota. He was a VA nurse.

Many Dems in Congress know what's going, and fully support it!
The Dems in Congress need to realize that we no longer have a functioning government.
So they should not help fund any of it.

The occupation in MN is disgusting. The growing urges of fascism are disgusting and disheartening.

Yet, right now, I am stunned in appreciation for something else growing right in front of our eyes. The glory, the power, the strength, and the grace of the People

Law enforcement condemning ICE's antics would be like if the Flu condemned the actions of Covid
These ICE antics make all other law enforcement less safe. Surprised we are not hearing a chirp from them.

You could study a decade from any period of the nation's history to understand that there's absolutely no mystery here
How Trump was elected president for the most powerful nation on Earth - TWICE - will go down in history as one of the truly biggest mysteries.

Wonder what motivation CNN would have to obscure what class really is in this very racist way. Hmm.

New: CBS News seems to be preparing a new segment called "Whiskey Fridays with Tony Dokoupil," per sources.

Some staff were only first made aware of it as they encountered CBS testing out set designs of a faux-stocked bar in the newsroom, featuring a large sponsor banner for Jack Daniels.

To be realistic, this country watched as millions of its neighbors died from a disease, and millions more became permanently disabled.

A chunk of the population responded by making it easier for the next disease to spread.

Always keep hope, but the ground needs tilling before any harvest happens
hey, quick question: what’s it gonna take

If he wants to declare martial law, he will. It won't be based on reality. I don't know why some people continue to say: "be peaceful or he'll invoke martial law." Are you all living in this country in 2026???? Haven't you seen them make things up out of whole cloth???? Are you 10 years old?

Fascism didn't appear out of nowhere. It's been here all along, allowed to fester and prey upon groups of people deemed undeserving of protection. It's been growing like a slimemold, and now it's crawling towards you regardless of who you are.

Nothing against this poster, but it's worth remembering that the working class has to work on election day. It's not a national holiday.

Not to mention voter suppression and disenrollment!
It’s scary to know that 1/3rd of Americans still won’t vote after all of this.

You cannot accept an empire as a legitimate form and then be mad when it engages in imperial actions.

We continue to struggle with this fact: this system does not select for competence in leadership.

Capital now operates under oligopoly/monopoly. They don't need to give you a good product. You must buy what only they sell.

So now, capital wants "business leaders" with servility and sociopathy
From October 2025: “I might invoke Edward R. Murrow, but they remember him. They don’t have any goodwill toward you. They don’t know who you are at all. And they are not going to defend you when you screw up.”
