Here to connect w/people who want the U.S. to be a multiracial pluralistic democracy, not a white nationalist theocratic autocracy. 💙

Every day it's exponentially clearer that we are living under a fascist government.

Authoritarianism is here. We are no longer living in a true democracy. Our job now is to work together to peacefully end this reign of terror.

This ends when enough of us say no.

Van Hollen: "It's either murder from the first strike if their whole theory is wrong, and I think the weight of the legal opinion is they've concocted this ridiculous legal theory. But even if you accept it, then it is a war crime. I do believe the secretary of defense should be held accountable"

Going live now. No paywalls. Recommend if you really want to know about the sacrifices and contributions of Afghan Americans, Muslims and refugees.
Trump, MAGA, and white supremacists are demonising Afghans, Muslims, and immigrants to fuel their anti-immigrant agenda.

Well, let's talk to an Afghan American who came here as a refugee and worked in DHS.

Just once I'd like to hear a TV news anchor say, "Sir, that's not true, and if you keep insisting it is, we're going to end this interview to protect our viewers from further disinformation. And we won't invite you back."

When a president tries to change a democracy into an authoritarian regime, it's an inherently precarious position.

Trump has been acting as if he had consolidated a hybrid regime, but the truth of the matter is that he hasn't. Now that Republicans smell weakness, they're openly opposing him.
Rep. Mike Turner on the double strike to comply with Hegseth's orders: "If that occurred, that would be very serious and I agree that would be an illegal act…This is completely outside of anything that has been discussed with Congress and there is an ongoing investigation."

The president is a political cartoon of corruption come to life, a gaudy grifter who is selling off pardons and lining his pockets, building a golden ballroom and protecting his fellow sex predator elites, all the while regular Americans are suffering and struggling to make ends meet.

Run on *that*

I criticize all the time so credit where credit is due. Just state the plain, damning facts, without any euphemisms or both sides double speak. More please.
Good front-paging.

President Obama served food at soup kitchens on Thanksgiving.

The orange felon shares staged propaganda photos of himself with troops from 2019 on Thanksgiving because he’s a 5-time draft dodging traitor lying criminal.

How far we’ve fallen.

Remember 6 weeks ago when Admiral Alvin Holsey, head of the U.S. military’s southern command, abruptly decided to retire?
Makes me think at least one top-ranking officer knows what a war crime is.

Alvin Holsey just took over the US southern command late last year for a position that normally lasts three years
