"Nobody you know"
Read this.

Seriously.

The Trump regime is officially attempting to rewrite 6 January history on the White House media page.

I suppose it shouldn't be surprising, but the action and the audacity is absolutely Orwellian.

Remember that day, and do not fall victim to this blatant gaslighting.

"Together with the NSS published in December, the move on Venezuela can be understood as advancing a vision for carving up the world into what the Nazi jurist Carl Schmitt called “great spaces”, with each effectively supervised by a great power - now, Washington, Moscow and Beijing."

“This Oil will be sold at its Market Price, and that money will be controlled by me, as President of the United States of America, to ensure it is used to benefit the people of Venezuela and the United States!” Trump said in a post online."

"The history of the region—and, more importantly, of how Donald Trump himself operates, how he seems caught in the mindset of 1980s America—make clear that Trump may be embarking on what may someday be viewed as the last war of the 20th century."
The 3 Keys to Understanding Trump’s Retro Coup in Venezuela
This weekend’s invasion was both a throwback to the last century and a new, uniquely Trumpian nightmare—one that’s just beginning.

“You gotta win the midterms,” Trump said. “Because if we don’t win the midterms, it’s just going to be—I mean, they’ll find a reason to impeach me. I’ll get impeached.”

"Capitalists and Protestant extremists (both “white” by self-definition) cannot survive, and have NEVER been able to survive, without the help of people they treat as “others” - non-Protestants, non-Christians, immigrants, non-English speakers, Latinos, Indigenous Americans, Black Americans."

"The worst offenders are CEOs of our most powerful and influential corporations.

Some stood up against Trump when he tried to overturn the 2020 election. Now they’re silent about democracy and international law. Or they’re actively enabling him in order to pad their bottom lines."
Where the hell are America’s leaders?
Too many people with formal authority are intimidated by Trump or sucking up to him. That leaves you and me and everyone else without official power to resist his tyranny.

"The most seductive lie in politics isn’t “nothing is wrong.”
It’s:
“Yes, something is wrong-but acting now would make it worse.”
That lie wears a suit.
It speaks calmly.
It calls itself “prudence.”
It has a brutal record.
Because restraint feels responsible…
right up until it becomes permission."
