I don’t give a fuck right now where u stand on forgiving student loans, government-run grocery stores, or the Middle East. If u support freedom, democracy, the rule of law, & basic human decency, I’m with u. I’m in your tent. Wake the fuck up. We’re fighting fascism. NOTHING else matters right now.

A State Department employee shared with PBS News an image from inside the department. The image includes a piece of paper taped to a mirror with the words, "Colleagues, if you remain: RESIST FASCISM. Remember the oath you vowed to uphold."

Just saw Superman. Was gonna do a whole bit about it walking in. That’d be a disservice. It’s an important piece of work and I’m not joking. I don’t even like superhero movies. Sprint to see it. Bring your kids and explain it to them. James Gunn had a time machine when he made it.

Just a reminder even though he opposed the bill NOW, AFTER it passed, Elon Musk is not a good guy.
He wants MORE cut out of what you need.

He incited an insurrection & a coup
People, including Capitol police, died
A gallows was built: they chanted “hang Mike Pence.”
Not only was he able to run for POTUS again, he is POTUS again
I will never understand or have faith in our institutions ever again

Aside from cutting health care for the elderly & poor, the Republican budget steers $160 BILLION to enrich private prisons + quadruple the size of Trump’s American Gestapo ICE — while making them immune from prosecution.
TLDR: You are not alarmed enough.

Trump on SALT: "These are all very blue states that I don't really believe -- if we had honest elections, I think I would've won California, I would've won New York. I even think I would've won Illinois."

DEMOCRATS WOULD BE WISE TO PAY ATTENTION TO THIS…
There’s a new alignment happening and it’s not about left or center. Rank-and-file Dems want two things:
📌Leaders who stand with workers
📌And who stand up to Trump
If you’re not doing either, expect to get primaried.

The next president has to do two things: 1) right the wrongs of Trump and go after those who broke the law and were corrupt. 2). Then spend time divesting power from the presidency and building real guardrails and passing laws like, “the president is not immune” etc.
And get the money out
