NAZI PUNKS FUCK OFF!

Footnote: Strange times when Bill Kristol is spreading the punk ethos.
“If you’re coming under the punk-rock banner and you voted for that f*****g guy, and you support that f*****g s**t that they’re doing, you’ve twisted your mind into knots. The far right ain’t the new punk—you heard it here first.”

Fascists are reliably stupid and arrogant. I expect the only lesson they'll learn from this is to escalate their voter suppression efforts between now and the mid-terms.

We've landed on Normandy, but we still have to march to Berlin. Be encouraged.

"Bovino wants the community he is embedded in to see him not as a law enforcement officer but as an occupying military commander. He has not tried to establish a working relationship with the city; he has tried to dominate it."

"Bovino wants the community to see him as an occupying military commander. Going out of his way to look like the driver of a military operation is part of the attempted subjugation. This is how fascists behave during the consolidation phase of their drive to power."

I think by now they've already revealed themselves, and I anticipate they'll continue proving the cruelty is the point.

I mean, for fuck's sake, she shot a puppy and Bovino gets his rocks off ordering commando raids.
Pritzker: "I sent a letter to Kristi Noem and to DHS leadership asking them to pause all of their federal agent operations for the entirety of the Halloween weekend. I'm asking for basic human decency. I think their response will be revealing. Give the children and families of Illinois a break."

For those who complained that our protest was just a party if we don't do more.
Good article.

While we support mass demonstrations and boycotts - and think they have an effect - we are quickly moving to the general strike stage. That should begin with ICE occupied cities and, if and when needed, be followed by a national one.

Folks, the only things that matter to corporate media are ratings and ad revenues. Send this guy a note. Let him know you'll be boycotting ABC and why. Cancel your Disney+ subscription and give them feedback on why.

I just went on Fox News to tell the truth about the redistricting power grab in Texas.

I asked a simple question: “If Republican policies are so popular, why do they need to redraw these maps; why not run on their policies?”

He refused to answer — and cut the interview early.

Fair point, but, as for 2024, I think those crowds didn't want to vote for either of the two dinosaurs that started the race. Not sure they wouldn't have turned out for Harris if she had more time, but that's another exercise in second-guessing history. Curious to see how Kat Abu does.
If those crowds won’t turn out to stop Donald Trump at the ballot box and only want the celebrity or beloved public figures that get them to go to a rally, what’s the point of trying to placate them?

How much influence should the young activists get? Where's the Baby Bear's porridge?

And don't get me wrong, I make distinctions between young activists just like I do old activists. It's the things they're active about that matter.
That's denial, and good luck with that. "Takeover" might be too strong, but influence is definite.

So, the really funny thing about this is the implication that his supporters don't think his vocabulary is sophisticated enough to include the word "enigma."

Although, we can't rule out the possibility he meant "enema."
