Screw corporate pride. They will bend the knee to fascism and throw us under the bus for a tax cut.

Pride better be a revolution this year.

Spain hits first weekday of 100% renewable power on national grid.

Spain also has universal health care and high-speed rail.
We should be like Spain.

As a Californian, I cannot encourage Britain enough to forget about a trade deal with this fascist and to rebuild your ties with Europe instead.

Everytime Trump cancels funding for a high-speed rail or big infrastructure project to benefit the oil lobby and Elon Musk, the U.S. falls further behind the rest of the world, China and Europe laugh at us, and we deserve it.

Concentration camps we build abroad are still concentration camps.

First they send noncitizens, then citizens they “criminals” (without due process), then political dissidents and donally all the demographics they hate.

How many of these prisoners are already dead?

We’ve seen this movie. When you elect a fascist, you get fascism.

Martha Stewart went to prison for less market manipulation than Trump is doing.

Donald Trump's failed economic policies have already in 71 days turned our "aspirational" economy into a "desperational" economy.

He is deliberately making you and your family poorer to give even bigger tax cuts to billionaires.

I agree with this article. The American empire is over.

No nation will ever fully trust us militarily or economically ever again.

I'm sure preserving white male supremacy was worth it to you, MAGA.

For something meatier, here is an economic refresher showing how tariffs lower your standard of living using the supply and demand curve.

You'll never convince me that Trump did his own homework in college.

This breaks my heart.

The Trump/Musk regime want to take us back to the days of HIV/AIDS "killing all the right people" with MAGA Republicans cheering on the virus.

If Republicans are afraid of losing Stefanik's House seat that she won with 62% of the vote just a few months ago -- with all of Musk's money to spend -- they know they are unpopular and the American people don't support this Project 2025 regime.

“I hate populists!”
—
Really?

Because the corporate-funded establishment “centrists” weren’t able to stop fascism from taking power in America.

And then when fascism came, they offered it “norms”, “bipartisanship”, and business as usual politics.

Maybe it is time to let the populists have a turn. They could hardly do any worse.

To fight fascism in America we can either:

(1) build a nationwide mass movement for democracy, social justice, and economic fairness for people who work for a living, OR

(2) rely on “norms”, “bipartisanship”, and Schumer’s treadmill buddies at the Senate gym.

Why can't Democrats hold rallies to save Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and the ACA in every city in America? And bring along voter registration forms.

If Bernie Sanders can hold big rallies in red states and red districts, why can't the Democratic Party leadership? Saving these programs would unite the whole party -- moderates, liberals, and progressives.

If your political strategist is telling you to play dead or worry only about “norms”, and just let Trump destroy the country, the economy, and our democracy so you can win assumed “free and fair” midterm elections in 2026, then please get a new political strategist.

President Reagan and his administration did nothing to fight HIV/AIDS because it was "killing all the right people", including so many people I loved, and they practically rooted for the virus.

I don't ever want to hear any Democrat praise Ronald Reagan in a speech again.

One of things I love about studying history is learning how often it repeats.

Plato studied 150 Ancient Greek City States and already figured out how this oligarchy will fall. This video is with a watch. Plato’s ‘Republic’ is a historical masterpiece.

A brief note before the mass graves part of this techno-fascist regime begins:

“I was just following orders” wasn’t accepted as an excuse at the Nuremberg Trials and won’t be accepted when this regime is finally ousted either.

California Governor Gavin Newsom:
"We're launching a new platform to bring Californians together to engage, interact, and share ideas that will help shape government services and create policy solutions. Government works better when we build it together — which means making it easier for everyone to be involved."
