Nichols: Even though these guys come across as clowns, they're clowns with flamethrowers.. They have the machinery of government behind them. These are people that normally would be struggling to hold on to middle management jobs in a department store somewhere

One of the key strengths of MAGA is that, like Sartre's antisemite, they are sincere about nothing while being capricious and cruel about everything, so it's basically impossible to have a public debate about their positions, since they don't have any sustained positions.
you do not have to sacrifice your peace to appease someone just because you share dna. you just don’t.
People living under fascism didn’t survive by giving up joy—they protected it.
They held onto the things fascism tried to erase: art, friendship, jokes, rituals, language, memory.
Not as escapism but as resistance. As proof they were still human.
Joy isn’t frivolous under fascism. It’s strategic.
The United States tried presidents who were smart, decent, and capable of empathy, but decided it wasn’t for them. It just didn’t reflect them.

I'm loving all the videos of yesterday's protest but especially this wedding party that decided to join in
The Los Angeles Police Department has stated that demonstrations in the city have remained peaceful. Let that sink in.
The federal government is taking over the California National Guard and deploying 2,000 soldiers in Los Angeles — not because there is a shortage of law enforcement, but because they want a spectacle.
Don't give them one.
Never use violence. Speak out peacefully.

Good morning rebels...

cats don't obey in advance and no one else should, either
Yes, I want to go back to arguing WITH Tom Nichols--instead of agreeing with him!
You might as well fight back because he's going to try to screw you over either way

Congratulations to your daughter! It’s been such a fun day. I even got to say hi to you too! Yeah, it’s me, the crazy lady who stopped you to say hi walking down the sidewalk!!
Happy birthday Raja. You’re such a cutie! Love your smile!
The administration is a perfect storm of dumb people who enjoy inflicting pain and are addicted to psychotic cruelty and quadrupling down. It ends in total ruin if you don't impeach him.
Hi Gonzo!
My daughter and grand daughter ar phillys Hands Off Protest!
I'm watching CNBC. These anchors are so angry. They really didn't believe he'd do it. They're actually just now, 10 years into this shit, realizing he's a maniac hellbent on revenge and there's no grand plan for the markets. Better late than never but holy shit.
It’s still hard to believe the simple fact that this is all self-imposed. Everything that’s happening right now wasn’t the result of some foreign adversary destroying the country. We did this all to ourselves by electing the dumbest motherfucker to ever rule a nation.
I think I’m going to have to try this.
Good Morning🥰
What can I say?
CORY BOOKER ROCKS❣️❣️🙌
Thank you, Senator Cory Booker! #Resist
They’ll never accept it, but everyone who cast a vote for Donald Trump did real, generations-long damage to the United States and the west in exchange for essentially nothing of value.
Oh my goodness Gonzo. This is so calming. Just beautiful!

Totally took a nap.
Be kind to a someone today. Everyone is walking around scared. Some are right on the edge and others push it to their unconscious but no one is immune. This plane has all the makings of hell but it can be the opposite when we connect with each other
