If Trump’s fascism is so bad, why aren’t the students protesting? We asked three right-wing oligarchs who bullied their alma maters into enforcing total bans on freedom of assembly on campus.

"Look at 1930s, 1940s Germany," the Illinois National Guard member continued. "There is a point where if you didn't stand up to the Gestapo, are you just actively one of them now?"
"I signed up to defend the American people and protect the Constitution," said one Illinois National Guard member. "When we have somebody in power who's actively dismantling our rights — free speech, due process, freedom of the press — it's really hard to be a soldier right now."
Two Illinois National Guard members speak out: "I won't turn against my neighbors."

Gov. Pritzker has said all the right things, but now he needs to act and get these state troopers out of there.
A protester with a mobility aid (cane) was sitting in the road. Illinois state troopers dragged them to the grass and arrested them.

The cowardice of the elites is a defining feature of America in 2025
Kimmel’s defiant return highlights one of the most disturbing dynamics of Trump II, that so many people in positions of leadership are chickenshit frauds who would rather fold in advance than put up anything resembling a fight www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

The #1 way to explain America working properly is by saying “comedians can make fun of he President on TV.” A good way to explain fascism is “the President forces companies to fire those comedians as a condition of allowing them to conduct business.”

Protest, celebrate, be loud and unapologetically who you are. Stop compromising with fascists and, as they fail, build something better that people want to be a part of. You'll win that way, and if you somehow don't, you will at least have lived life as your actual self.

We need to build some real social stigma around being afraid of cities. You don't have to like them or live there, but a politics built this strongly around watching TV and going "ewww" is embarrassing, and people should be embarrassed by it. It's like "fear of werewolves" being your top issue.

Both statements are from last night. Note difference between how Trump characterizes conditions in LA ("RIOTS AND LOOTERS"), vs how the LAPD does ("Peaceful Protests")

1) USPS did not lose $3.3b. It provided a service that cost $3.3b. *The Pentagon* loses you money, however, every time it accidentally yeets a fighter jet off the deck of a carrier
NEW: The U.S. Postal Service posted a net loss of $3.3 billion in this fiscal year’s second quarter mainly due to “significant challenges out of our control,” including workers’ compensation costs, Luke Grossmann, USPS chief financial officer, said at the open session of the governing board meeting

Broken Record: You *cannot sustain* a functioning constitutional order if the general population is blasé about open violation of the Constitution. If voters don't care, your job is to make them care. This is not optional. If you don't, you lose even if you pick up seats in the next election.
