I knew I saw this somewhere before. Funny that it’s almost exactly what’s actually happening now.

This is what Nicolás Maduro did in Venezuela. Nationalize voting, then clamp down on journalists and appoint only partisan judges. Becoming a dictator one step at a time. 🗽

We missed a momentous anniversary recently. On Jan. 21, 2010, John Roberts and the gang handed down the Citizens United decision and effectively sold the. country to the resident oligarchs. Good job. The Brennan Center for Justice marked last year’s anniversary thusly.
Fifteen Years Later, Citizens United Defined the 2024 Election
The influence of wealthy donors and dark money was unprecedented. Much of it would have been illegal before the Supreme Court swept away long-established campaign finance rules.

Klobuchar: "Somehow 50,000 peaceful protesters in 10 below weather were able to march without any problems, and then the next day half a dozen ICE and CBP agents couldn't handle a guy with a cell phone taking video of them and shot him. I think it's pretty obvious what's going on here."

The people who spent years defending and even lionizing Kyle Rittenhouse and Ashli Babbitt now want us to believe that an unarmed mother in her car and a disarmed nurse were domestic terrorists who deserved to be murdered by law enforcement.

Across America and the world, people are realizing it’s not possible to appease America’s dictator.

The only way to deal with him is to stand up to him — and the only way to stand up to him is by joining together against him.

It's time for a massive general strike across the country.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.

I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

Yup.
The reactionary centrist logic is simple: if the left does something bad it’s the left’s fault, and if the right does something bad, it’s also the left’s fault for making them do it. It’s a simple formula and once you see it every one of their arguments is the same

Yup.
This is a fascinating website that tracks all of Trumps authoritarian actions and categorizes them. www.trumpactiontracker.info?

Say “lies“ and it could have been a tight, two-line headline.
While I applaud the @theguardian.com in general and for headlines like this, particularly compared to our increasingly corporatized and toothless mass media, it continues to amaze me how hard it is for them to say "lies."

Great read.
When Americans insist "it can't happen here," they’re wrong. A sociologist who studies collective memory and identity examines how the U.S. forgot its own fascist movements and what that collective amnesia means today. buff.ly/9mzgR3S
America faced domestic fascists before and buried that history
Although thousands of Americans embraced fascist ideas during the interwar years, a new study examines why the US has had little appetite to remember that past.

Ring of truth here, sadly.
Sometimes journalists can become too close to sources. Or they just follow the pack rather than dig on their own.
This is how and why NewsNation became another Fox News clone.

"Advocates" are typically going to be experts on the subjects being reported, so they can explain facts and context that ordinary people.

Those ordinary people are often idiots who are often clueless about subjects.

Paint one blade black, end of problem.
Trump posted a photo claiming it shows a bald eagle in the United States killed by a windmill.

In reality, the image is of a dead falcon in Israel from 2017.
