Republican fascism embraces murder by the state, ignores due process, and robs wealth from the people to build an illegal anti-American army to protect these wealth hoarders.

All based on the insane ramblings of this muppet king of the rubes.

"It was not until he took office and began courtship with major anti-LGBTQ+ organizations that Trump’s policies included a slate of anti-trans moves. Before that time, Trump expressed indifference, or even support for transgender people."

-- Kate Sosin, @19thnews.org

Was Trump always against LGBTQ+ rights? Everything in his past says no.

The president’s previous support is at odds with his anti-trans hostility now. What’s behind the shift?

This you, Kristi?

A screenshot of a post from X (formerly Twitter). The top tweet is from user @covie_93 with the caption: “This tweet aged like Stephen Miller…..”. Below it is a tweet from Kristi Noem (@KristiNoem) that reads:
“If Joe Biden federalizes the National Guard, that would be a direct attack on states' rights.
Over the last several years, we've seen Democrats try to take away our Freedoms of religion, assembly, and speech. We can't let them take away our right to defend ourselves, too.
South Dakota defends the Constitution.”

“This is hardly the most important example from the lengthy list of Trump’s abuses of power. But symbols matter, and this one cuts to the very heart of who he is — and what he fancies himself to be. An emperor or king who rules not by the consent of the governed, but by divine right.”

Trump wants to be on our money — and there's a reason why

The family did not realize he’d mixed poison into his rice.

This is an important point.

Everyone one of these people has been asked to leave their home, their family, and their job to work without pay bc of the shutdown. We're better off thinking of ways to make this backfire on Abbott than to treat them poorly.

Remember: These are not MAGA stormtroopers. These are everyday teachers and accountants who signed up to serve their country with their spare time. They're being used as political pawns by venal, un-American, draft-dodging president

So many of Trump’s followers wrap themselves in the cross while defiling everything it stands for.

They preach love, yet cheer cruelty.

They claim the mantle of faith, yet follow a man who mocks compassion, mercy, and truth. 1/3

She'd do much better with simple answers of yes, no, I plead the 5th, I cannot discuss ongoing cases.

She's telegraphing the truth to the world in her conceit.

She's really really stupid, as are all these regime folks.
