It should be a litmus test for Democratic presidential primary candidates whether they will restore the White House and DC public properties to exactly the way they were before the Palm Beach lounge lizard decided to turn it into Mar-a-Lago meets 1936 Nuremberg.

🚧 Sorry everyone, it appears we're currently under a DDOS attack and our host, Linode, put a networking restriction on our main web server, meaning it isn't publicly available. We've reached out to them for more information. Hope to have an update soon.

Reminder that any political party trying to make it harder to vote is sending a clear message: they can't win on their ideas alone.

I grew up in the 60s when the civil rights movement brought racism bubbling to the surface, but we also were coming off WW2, and fully understood what happened in Germany. This is worse than both.

Do you still not understand why we Canadians have no use for you or the village idiot that's your boss?
If you still want to cry victim, go home to your MAGA friends and stay there.
We don't want you here.

ME: He still doesn’t get it. That’s what Trump wanted everyone to believe. They’re not even trying to go after “the criminals”.

I am sounding the alarm that the GOP is engaged in an all out attack voting rights and free and fair elections. Voter suppression, gerrymandering, and troops in blue cities are just some of the ways they are using to try to rig the rules to keep power in 2026 and beyond.

Pay attention and act!

Everyone please call your local TV and radio stations and ask them to send a crew to the protests and report on them. Much of the media would prefer to ignore them like they did last time, even claiming they didn't know it was happening. Make sure they know this time and that we want to see it.

AOC: And they are able to radicalize a generation of young boys in particular, away from healthy masculinity and into an insecure masculinity that requires the domination of others who are poorer, browner, darker, or a different gender than them.

No. Allegedly, the teacher has been doing this for a while. There is a no phone policy at the school, but the student felt it was important enough to face any punishment.

It's been brought to the principal, superintendent, and the school board. To say they are unhappy is an understatement.

You're right. For too long we have depended on the actions of previous generations to maintain Democracy. We got lazy. Unfortunately, those who don't want a democratic America have been working to pervert Democracy into Fascism. It's time to take to the streets and protest to protect Democracy.
