America’s Doug Wilson problem goes much deeper than Pete Hegseth. See, eg, NatCon, American Moment, New Founding, and American Reformer. Thread. 1/

Question that needs answering! Trump is the best president ever (his words) and it makes no sense why he needs to gerrymander Texas! VC @kerrbear.bsky.social

Great. But this is the administration wanting to put them in schools.

“Because the truth is, Republicans aren’t just playing to win — they’re playing to end the game entirely. They don’t want fair elections; they want fixed outcomes. They don’t want to debate policy; they want to decide who’s even allowed on the ballot.”

Where are the hard-working Americans who screamed, “They’re stealing our jobs”?

You’re getting your wish. Immigrant workers aren’t showing up, and farm owners are hiring.

Wild how the President CAN actually deploy National Guard troops in DC whenever he feels like it.
Who could have possibly known? 🙄

(Everyone. Literally everyone knew this except Trump’s cult who bought his “but Pelosi was in charge!” bullshit for 4 years.)

Project 2025 playbook—Trump wants to enact martial law.

It’s a set up. If you protest, keep that in mind. DO NOT GIVE HIM AN EXCUSE!

Share widely...

A protest safety info graphic. It reads:

YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO PROTEST — BUT BE CAREFUL —
• DO NOT ENGAGE: Don’t argue or resist the police, even if they’re wrong.
• AVOID NIGHT PROTESTS: Darkness hides the worst dangers and bad actors.
• FOLLOW TRAFFIC LAWS: Stay out of the road unless permitted.
• PROTECT YOUR IDENTITY: Keep yourself and others safe.
• IF IT STARTS TO GET UGLY, LEAVE — DON’T RUN —

This tactic of presenting different faces to different audiences - appearing moderate to mainstream voters while maintaining extremist support - has been a recurring feature of fascist movements’ rise to power.

Trump’s budget bill gives ICE $45 billion to expand detention centers.

The estimated cost to end homelessness and hunger in the U.S.? $45 billion.

Your reminder that a budget is a statement of your moral priorities.

Cry me a river.

Maybe they’re burned out from terrorizing families & traumatizing kids. From dragging moms out of courtrooms. Or chasing day laborers through parking lots like it’s a game.

If that’s what’s breaking them, maybe they should ask themselves who they’re really serving.

Ok, first I need to know your definition of “rioting” @radiofreetom.bsky.social . And second, what do you mean by the “lesson.” Is it a stay in your place kinda thing? Because this seems condescending as fuck to me, and dismissive. You know what benefits RW politics? The left doing nothing…

I guess no one's ever going to learn the lesson that rioting in the streets almost always benefits the right wing in American politics.
Save me your speeches about Watts. It's been almost a perfect record since 1968.

I’m sure it’s a complete coincidence that days before an expose drops about Elon Musk drug abuse and the administrations knowledge of that abuse, the FBI randomly reopened the investigation into cocaine found at Biden’s WH.
Completely unrelated 👌🏽

The Holocaust Museum here in El Paso (I take my boys there) has a wall honoring the soldiers from El Paso who liberated those in the Nazi concentration camps. They will never be forgotten for their sacrifice, service and the lives they saved 🙏🏾❤️ #MemorialDay
