Now that America has endorsed the Russian invasion of Europe, declared tariff wars against all democratic nations, begun committing war crimes daily, and taken to the high seas in acts of contemptible piracy, we deserve this new status.

In 2018, the Trump FBI designated the Proud Boys as an extremist organization.

Per the Trump 2.0 FBI, they no longer have that designation.

So what did they do to earn this exoneration?

Why, they STORMED THE CAPITOL FOR TRUMP in a VIOLENT INSURRECTION.

When Donald Trump responds to learning that Indiana has refused to participate in his rigging of the 2026 midterms by saying "Well, we won every other state," he's making plain that he sees his undemocratic rigging scheme as the *real* election

Worse, he may end up being right

Historians many years from now will look back and wonder why we did not as a nation receive over 70% of his public statements as shockingly obvious signs of a profound mental illness

Ana gets it. This whole thread is worth reading.
I've taught a couple of interviewing classes and, sure, "don't ask yes/no questions, ask 'why/how'" advice is standard. Most people will respond. But it's not a magic charm against a psychopath. "How did you justify?" is just as likely to get "Well, I didn't" as a "Did you?"
Exactly. Show him his post first. Put it up on a screen. Then ask him virtually any question about any word, phrase, or sentence in it.

Everyone who follows the news already knows where this is headed.

Orwell. A police state. An authoritarian regime that disappears people—including citizens. Think Pinochet as a starting point.

The problem is that those who don't follow the news *don't* know where this is headed. We must tell them.

Not The Onion, but CBS News

Not an indie-club stand-up routine before ICE arrives to stomp on the club owner in front of his mom, but actual testimony from the snowflakiest fascist goons ever to hit the mean. shop- and tourist-lined streets of northwest DC
“Lairmore said he ‘could feel it through his ballistic vest’ and it ‘exploded all over’ him after the Subway stack hit him. He said he ‘could smell the onions and mustard’ on his uniform, and even had an onion string hanging by his police radio later that night.”

This court case is pure gold.

The White House—which we pay for—looks more like an Epstein-inspired child rape bordello every day, given that the only people who'd be impressed by the fake gold snot above this door or the tacky, miscolored $4-font signage beside it are kids or the sort of predator who tries to lure kids somewhere

Feeling triumphant and hopeful? Me too. But we're not out of the woods yet. Not by a mile.

Yesterday was a crucial, but small, battle win in a really scary war to take down our democratic Republic.

But the public beast is awakening. Another well researched take from @sethabramson.bsky.social.

Mamdani: "My message to ICE agents & to everyone across this city is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law. If you violate it, you must be held accountable. There is sadly a sense growing that certain people are allowed to violate that law, whether they be POTUS or ICE agents."

The earliest anti-fascist movements were made up of very strange bedfellows - communists, socialists, anarchists, republicans (small r), trade unionists, and even monarchists in some instances.

They were “big tent” organizations with the specific purpose of driving out the authoritarian rulers.

36/ I believe our—the left’s—inability to focus on a primary goal without litigating and relitigating *every other issue we’re exercised over all the time*—is, to be clear *along with* apathy, what will destroy the United States. Not Trump: us.

*We’re* the reason, I believe, that America will fall.

35/ We all have a decision to make in these final months of American life. No one can make that decision for you. I’ve no interest in haranguing people about that decision—because candidly unless you come to a position on your own, you’re not really there, anyway. So I’m just telling you where I am.

34/ Metamodernism is about having hope even when it’s hopeless—a paradox, but metamodernists learn to live this way.

I believe America will collapse. Whereas a binary-/dialectics-oriented poststructuralist says, "Then you’re giving up," the metamodernist says, "No, I’m getting ready to *stand* up."

28/ And bluntly, 90%+ what I am seeing on the left right now is people using the Big Cause (rule of law and democracy) as a backdrop for their personal causes—which, to be clear, are often entirely just, even as they’re incompatible with the sort of massive coalition-building we need right now.
