it's incredible how many stages of fascism you can avoid succumbing to as a voter by simply asking not who this plan hurts but how it helps you

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: I think Marco Rubio probably needs to be sent back to school.. When you arbitrarily rip up trade agreements, threaten a country, and say you’re going to break it, that’s an act of war. And Canadians have responded in kind.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last.

Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

Folks: please be diligent about not disseminating Ann Telnaes' cartoon in a way that she's not getting the clicks on it (until she says differently). Her IP matters now more than ever.

Make it go viral but make sure she benefits.
