Ongoing and obvious reminder that firing chemical weapons directly at people's heads like this *is* deadly force.

pulling this reflection on white silence/fear over here, too:

I’m done pretending Bernie is some moral hero.

He’s propping up a deeply flawed candidate, parroting GOP border lies, and helping Republicans attack Democrats. That’s not “unity.”

That’s desperation to stay relevant. He’s become a bitter old man who can’t accept it’s time to retire.

I'm not going to be quiet about the fact that he's releasing Republican lies and supporting a candidate who lied about not knowing what his Nazi tattoo meant.

Focusing on border security while refusing to reform and speed-up the pathway to citizenship is a surefire way to always have a failing record on border security.

Immigrants are harder workers, less likely to commit crimes, and have a deeper respect for our laws than a certain 1/3 of voters.

Oh Bernie - what happened to you?!? Perhaps it's time to retire. 💙

Key thing here is the idea that Stephen Miller and others are absolutely thrilled that Trump has lost a step, since it makes him easier to manipulate:

We live in a country where the government honors insurrectionists who sacked the Capitol, and defines peaceful protest, even before it occurs, to be terrorism.
They know their position is weak, they know they are unpopular, which is why they are seeking to stamp out dissent.

Q: Rescission are something Dems have said is a reason for a lack of trust. What rescissions are you discussing?

JOHNSON: We have more than $37t in debt. We're doing everything we can to get us back to sound fiscal responsibility. What does that include? A rescission package is part of our process

He's literally speaking out against the idea of representation for the American people and saying we have a corrupt SCOTUS that does what we want. Just saying it all out loud

Trump and Elon made massive cuts to all US weather tracking and warning systems in the spring of 2025.

Same!

We must not leave this out of the account of what they have done. What Musk and Trump and Vought did. What Johnson and his band of sycophants allowed them to do. What tens of millions of fellow Americans endorse.

I’m sorry for the long post but a lot of you have followed me for a long time, since 2016 when I was one of the first to repeatedly call out Trump for being a Russian asset.

I don’t know how else to say this, as a person who has studied cults (wrote a bestseller about it) and totalitarian states.

There are 50,000 undocumented Irish in the USA.

There are no plans to move any of them into FLA concentration camps or El Salvador torture gulags.

And everyone knows why.

"It just seems like he wants to go all the way & just keep killing people. It's not good"

Projecting again. This is exactly what Trump is doing, repeatedly.

Pay attention to the way white leftists swarm to attack any politician Black voters might rally around.

@svdate.bsky.social

MSNBC put together a supercut of Republicans trashing on Trump's big bill before they voted for it

We’ve never had a wide open border. Just ask the people who actually live in border states.
How stupid are Trump supporters?

Seriously!

Heads up🔥 The GOP just released their 12 priority bills.

They are all horrific. Pay attention to this one about voting:

10. A bill to amend the National Voter Registration Act to require proof of United States citizenship to register an individual to vote in elections for Federal office

The majority of this app thinking Sanders ain’t shit is great.

THIS ISN’T GETTING ENOUGH ATTENTION:

Trump and his cronies don’t want you to know this, but Illegal border crossings are at a 4-year low.

The last time numbers were this low was July 2020—when Trump was president.

Now he’s crying “open borders,” but he wasn’t back then. So, what changed?

I believe the Biden Administration helped vets. The incoming Trumpers want to dismantle aid to vets. Project 2O25 and the DOGE twins are eying deep cuts to care. Remember Jon Stewart lobbying Congress for aid to vets with exposure to burn pits! The GOP said no. It finally was passed. Pathetic.

BREAKING: The Cybertruck explosion suspect is 37 year old AMERICAN and former Army veteran Matthew Livelsberger.

Livelsberger reportedly served at the same military base as New Orleans terrorist suspect Shamsud Din Jabbar.

He was not a migrant.

Google news search using the terms "health insurance poll" NYT says we all like our health insurance, every other article say the opposite.

Yup. Legacy media (especially the NYT) aren't even trying to hide the fact that they are openly shilling for billionaires now.

I mean, here's the results of a google search from a few days ago. Their gaslighting is blatant and disgusting.
