Resisting America’s turn towards Authoritarianism
Reposted by Chad G
You can't refute or deny that this isn't taking place across 🇺🇸 this very moment. When Government agents are entering your home, job, church, streets and arresting you without a warrant that's a sure sign the constitution is no longer in play and the courts are being ignored. That is a dictatorship.

No executive order has the potential to do more permanent damage to our constitutional system than the one Trump signed last week targeting free and fair elections. It is both an unconstitutional power grab and a clear violation of federal law. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/trum...

Let's talk about the so-called Save Act.

Don't let the name fool you. This bill doesn't SAVE anything - this is 100% a voter suppression bill. #HandsOffHerVote

so my favorite dive bar in WI passed up showing tonight’s Bucks game so they could show live poll results. when the election was called for Crawford, the whole bar started chanting, “Fuck El*n”. the bartender pulled out the good stuff and handed out free shots to us all—an absolutely electric nite

Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

To work for Donald Trump means you have to lie as you breathe.
On the left: Hegseth's message.

On the right: the applicable CENTCOM classification guide provisions.

This is all very plainly classified at the SECRET level.

They all lied. They should all lose their jobs.

Funny, and accurate. Need the finger wag too.
Chuck Schumer still thinks it's the era of polite letters and handshake deals. But those days are over.

Fighting the rise of authoritarianism demands steely resolve - not compromise. Schumer’s time is up.

Only bold, unflinching leadership can save our democracy.

When did @wsj.com forget how a well managed organization works. Does any CEO go to their board meeting and say ‘the competitor 1/8th my size spends a larger portion of their revenue on X, so we need to do that too?”
