You can’t make this shit up. Naming a building after yourself in the name of peace you have never embodied, forged, or effectively impacted in a program you unlawfully defunded and dismantled (and are currently pending Congressional legal actions after being sued for unconstitutionality) is bonkers.

The autocrat is a piece of shit. We know this, he proves it every day, and here just another example of his racist, xenophobic vitriol while his minions bang desks and laugh in encouragement.
Oh Bob, sit down.
I’m no economist, but I am a researcher and methinks DoorDash’s State of Local Commerce is hardly a place to rely on economic data…
We are soooooooooo fucked
I don’t think it is a question at this point.

Kristi Noem confronts enemy combatants in the Portland war zone today.
I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.
Yeah, we were kind of just hoping people could still have Medicaid…
I’m in a red state at a teaching social action institute and I have to say, the faculty around me are having some very familiar conversations that I had when living in GA. I can’t express enough how grateful I am that these are not the same realities I have to face to the same extent anymore.
Solidarity to Portland, where the autocrat’s full flex is an attempt to stifle democracy
Reading the new this week has really made me want to get bone-crushingly wrecked on Tylenol. Cuz I read on Reddit that it crushes bones so it must be true, it’s like, research.
Today in autocracy…
There were 2 mass shootings at unhoused encampments in Minnesota on homelessness activist Hamoudi Sabri’s property. This happened not long after Fox News host Brian Kilmeade recently encouraged of “involuntary lethal injection” for homeless individuals around the country, stating: “Just kill ‘em.”
Autocratic Playbook lesson 2.1: control the media by eliminating free speech - Ppretend the Constitution is about protecting your power and not the people’s.
President Says Broadcasters Risk Losing Licenses When Hosts Criticize Him.
While a lot of people are having long discourses about condemning violence despite whether they agree with a person, I just want to remind us to condemn genocide. Perhaps we can all agree on that.
As a researcher who centers gun violence in their work, I’m never surprised when the public conversation about violence involves humanizing its impact seems to only happen when a conservative figure is the victim. When it’s kids, Black, immigrant, or trans* folx the narrative is somewhat different.
So grateful I live in Massachusetts, where vaccine availability is guaranteed and will remain covered by insurance
My eyes, my eyes!! Did I just read something agreeable from Rand Paul’s social media?!?!
And for anyone eager for the Autocrat to keel over, just remember this is the stain we risk having next
Congratulations for getting him where it pinched. He's a smear of a man and a twisted leader.
Autocrats use propagandized pop culture to sell their monstrous acts of abuse. But it doesn't help if you missed the point of the movie used as a power pump & point to the fact that this is about the horrors of American imperialism & the unraveling of morality. The Autocrat is a moron and a monster.
Trump's speeches on homelessness drip with fear and disgust. His policies are worse.
Thousands of federal staffers working on mental health-related issues have been purged by Trump’s government.
Gaza is officially under famine and Israel denies it. Autocracy involves blatant lies to normalize oppressive political maneuvers. It’s in the Autocratic Guidebook 101. History is clocking this genocide and the monstrous forces that perpetuated it.
What in the white nationalism is this shit?!?!

The genocide of Palestinians is fully embraced by US autocracy. This administration is full of monsters.

Gestapo tactics. Utterly horrific people are going through this
More terrorizing of people by federal officials, willing to lie to cover their asses despite video evidence showing the opposite of what they claim. Gestapo tactics are the new norm.
Late last night I mapped crime rates for cities in OH, SC and WV to show how often they exceeded the rate in DC — where those states’ governors are sending National Guard troops to “combat crime.” www.pbump.net/o/more-peopl...
The facist grip gets a little more traction.
