Yes please! More of this! Journalists are no longer reporting. They’re being stenographers and feeding Trump’s narcisstic ego: open.substack.com/pub/dearlste...

SIT DOWN AND SHUT UP, LEGACY MEDIA

You are dangerous, and as a lifelong journalist, I am DONE with you ...

A man who preached bigotry, hatred, racism and was a blatant misogynist? Yeah that tracks with these so-called “men”.

If you would have described the traits of hard core MAGAs and Trump ten years ago…. Those very same people would have called those people SNOWFLAKES.

Constantly whining, always the victim, always angry at everyone else.

That’s exactly what they are. It’s amusing to see they’re incapable of seeing their childish weaknesses in themselves

Agree that’s his plan.

He is so ready for some victims to fight back against his private army so he can massively escalate.

The protesters are not going to give him a reason for an insurrection, however, if anything happens, it’s because the military prodded and caused it to happen. He’s sending agitators not peacekeepers.

Well of course he is. How else will he take over? Once he has the military on his side, we're about done. There will be no more elections, no more free speech, no more constitution. Hitler was a joke, too - until he wasn't.

Today in an interview with NBC News, Vance said that Trump was considering all of his options for deploying the National Guard to major cities, including invoking the Insurrection Act of 1807, which grants the president emergency powers to deploy troops on U.S. soil.

As ICE terrorizes communities, remember that some of Trump's biggest supporters are private prison companies that will make bank off his budget bill.

And Stephen Miller recently disclosed over $100K of stock in Palantir, the shady data firm ICE uses to target immigrants.

Cashing in on cruelty.

Agree. Pedophiles always protect their own. It’s interesting how the #GOP and his admin seem to be totally focused on doing just that.

It says a lot that Trump can find $20 billion to bail out Argentina, but won't help the millions of Americans who are in real need at home.

So much for “America First.”

Every time someone makes me read something Peter Thiel said it’s like “Scrooge McDuck is Jesus Christ and Huey, Dewey, and Louie are Gabriel, Raphael, and Uriel and Daisy is Mary Magdalene and that’s why women voting has lowered American sperm count.”

It was a grave mistake by the Allies not to continue the work of disinfestation from the nazis beyond 1945; it was clearly stopped to help american nazists to re-organize themselves, we're seeing the side effects right now.
