I am a brand new world language teacher (¡español!)… after teaching English for 30 years. Gulp. Tenaciously yet tenuously clinging to the twinkles of curiosity, wonder, and empathy that sparkle in my students’ eyes (at times…).

MAGA has always been easily fooled, but so are many on our side. Historians will study us for years, trying to figure out how we did not hold Trump accountable after Jan 6, why we believe crass opportunists who want something from us, and our cult of personality.

In a breathtaking reversal of reality, Trump uses a taxpayer funded website to whitewash the history of Jan. 6, blaming Capitol Police, Democrats and Pence -- everyone but himself and the mob that stormed the Capitol. @lukebroadwater.bsky.social @alanfeuer.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2026/01/06/u...

NPR built a visual archive of the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, showing exactly what happened through the lenses of the people who were there. In Chapter 3, we lay out a timeline of key moments throughout the day as the assault on the Capitol unfolded.

Schumer really needs to be replaced as leader.

We do not need, and this moment won't survive "I am disappointed."

That's all he can muster, and it makes him the wrong person to lead the opposition to fascism. For the good of the country, he needs to step aside and let a brawler take his place.

The reason for us all to fight now is that Putin has ruled Russia as a dictator for 20 years.

If we want a different path in America you should do everything you can to fight. Now. While it can still make a difference.

“Nothing pisses me off more than getting a fundraising text from Democrats talking about how they’re fighting fascism,” says the fundraising email I just got from the candidate who spent years walking around sporting a Nazi tattoo on his flesh.

I want to repeat that I reported two years ago that Roger Stone was, in a sense, paid for January 6 with a new set of teeth.

You people have not done enough with that information. You let me down, and arguably Publix heir Julie Fancelli too. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

January 6 in History

Wrote this two years ago: “If the insurrectionist-in-chief returns to power without ever facing any real consequences and while explicitly declaring his intent to establish a vindictive autocracy, then January 6 will have been successful.”

And here we are.
January 6 in History
Was it a key moment in the republic’s eventual demise or a milestone on the road to democracy’s ultimate triumph? The meaning of January 6 is yet to be determined

Samuel Alito flew two flags used by insurrectionists.

Clarence Thomas' wife plotted to overturn the 2020 election.

Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot.

It's a stain on our nation that this has effectively been forgotten.

one takeaway from the grok noncon porn thing is that much of the media just isn't interested in an issue they can't pretend has two sides or that doesn't give them an opportunity to shit on the left. Also it would be uncomfortable to justify remaining on twitter after acknowledging it

Hey, @schumer.senate.gov.
Stop unanimous consent and grind things to a halt.
Stop confirming Trump nominees.
Stop being "disappointed" and be half the a**hole Mitch McConnell was.
Or stop being minority leader.

The world order as we’ve known for the last century is disappearing.

And in its place, a new order shaped by the private interests of individual men and their fiercest allies, not the interests, private or public, fair or foul, good or bad, of a nation.
A new theory explains why Trump keeps threatening global takeovers
Neo-royalism challenges us to look beyond a century-old paradigm and see the hierarchical lens through which Trump justifies domination.

Despite the Trump administration’s efforts to memory-hole Jan. 6, thousands of videos from the riot live on ProPublica’s website and other places.

Additionally, much of the deleted DOJ database can be found on the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine.
