Best short explanation of the MAGA cult I’ve seen: Bingo!

But it also highlights how much these people need our help. They need saving from this monster; as much as they resist, they are our fellow citizens, even if they don’t want to be.

The blue maga resist networks are fully firing in all cylinders to try and push their propaganda and attempt to smear anyone including those of us who actually are doing the anti fascist academic work for pointing out the democrats are working directly with fascists to kill citizens.

It's super cool how the democrats capitulate with the fascists to end the government shut down and in so doing helped the fascists destroy the aca.
Next the democrats are going to help these fascists destroy medicade etc while telling you they are not.
The democrats are poison.

@richard.wickedproblems.earth

And I think it's an astute reading that a weakened divided Europe unable to resist the Broligarchy is the subtext strategic objective of the whole effort.

To serve...who exactly? We do know, don't we?

European and American liberal democracy is so dangerous to their project, in fact, that the MAGA ideologues seem to be planning to undermine it. They don’t want to meddle in anyone’s internal politics anywhere else on the planet: “We seek good relations and peaceful commercial relations with the nations of the world without imposing on them democratic or other social change.” The glaring exception to this rule is in Europe. Here, it is now American policy to “help Europe correct its current trajectory,” language that implies that the U.S. will intervene to do so.
Eliot A. Cohen: Trump’s security strategy is incoherent babble
According to reporting by Defense One, an earlier version of the National Security Strategy said that U.S. foreign policy should even seek to support illiberal forces in at least four countries—Hungary, Poland, Italy, and Austria—to persuade them to leave the European Union. For all four, this would be an economic catastrophe; for the rest of the continent, this would be a security catastrophe, because a damaged EU would struggle to counter Russian hybrid warfare and Chinese economic pressure. If the union breaks up, there would also no longer be a European Commission capable of regulating American tech companies, and perhaps that is the point.

Listen to Working People: Phone Bank with SURJ!
The 2026 Midterm Elections will determine the ground on which we fight MAGA and authoritarianism going into the next Presidential Election. Let’s be prepared to win. SURJ is calling working class white people in key congressional districts to talk to them about what they care about, what issues are affecting their daily lives, and what they want to fight for in 2026. We think if we can do that, we can support people’s candidates to actually deliver and make tangible differences in their future constituents’ lives. FMI: mobilize.us/surj/event/870107/

Their timing is super slow when it’s really needed then it’s super fast with their abuse of the shadow docket. MAGA SCOTUS use it when they can’t resist the urge to begin legislating unilaterally.

MAGA lawyers keep leaving cases at their doorstep they want action on 🤬

Ghost of a Werewolf

@motstand.bsky.social

The irony of being a conservative is that you must resist change until change occurs, and then defend it.

The MAGA right are a bunch of pseudoreligious nazi regressives that want to change everything to fit their story. They're more "progressive" in that sense than the republican party ever was.
