I’m done funding cruelty. Target cuts DEI, Amazon bankrolls this administration, and Home Depot lets ICE terrorize workers on their lots.
My money stays with small shops and people-first businesses. How about you? #WeAintBuyingIt

Trump’s paramilitary is blatantly committing way more crimes, causing terror, in DC & LA than they are stopping.
NEW: Video shared with me from a bystander in DC shows multiple masked federal agents (at least one of whom appears to have an ICE badge) violently attacking and handcuffing a delivery worker in the street outside Bluestone Lane cafe near Logan Circle this morning.
Please take care when watching.

The fact that the President of the United States posts a fake video of a kneeling Barack Obama being handcuffed and we’re supposed to pretend it’s perfectly normal, everyday stuff shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

Major media seem flummoxed about what to do when Trump shares a fake video of Obama getting arrested. Maybe they think the options are A) take the bait, or B) ignore it. But there's a 3rd option: Gather all the crazy examples and write big, loud stories about how the president is mentally unhinged.

Stephen Colbert didn’t retire. CBS pulled the plug. Not for ratings, but because truth became too expensive. In a sanitized media landscape, satire is being dismantled piece by piece. Colbert was just the next to fall.

@nytimes.com is no longer a dependable newspaper. They are lapdogs to the rich and powerful. Their substandard coverage of yesterday’s massive rallies is shameful.

Trump’s friend is right, this move is meant to escalate tension to justify more action against US, this move is meant to normalize military on the streets imposing authoritarian power on US.
The federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers.
That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.

The only think more disturbing than what tRump has said and done over these past few months is that not one GOP member of Congress has spoken out. Is our whole country just going to give in to fear and kiss the ring?

This is really scary, and shows how far toward authoritarianism the US has gone.
I cannot honestly say how I would act if I lived in the US, but I know one thing:
There are times when silence is not neutral, and ours is one of those times.
