How much more are Republicans going to take before they decide to reign in their bloated vulgarian? It gets worse by the day.

“Trump took Venezuela’s oil at gunpoint, and gave it to one of his biggest campaign donors,” wrote one US senator.
[note that Trump is NOT giving the Venezuela oil to giant oil companies, but to his pals]

Todd Blanche was never a "good" guy. Any perceptions of "When I knew him...he was a decent guy," were formed as the result of a suppression of his true drives, values, and motives.

Folks, if you are thinking that it's better to keep Trump alive because Vance is a lot worse...
or
It's better to wait for 2028 when the General Election because Trump will go peacefully and willingly...
Unfollow me now. I don't need your way of thinking!

I am not exaggerating when I say ICE functions as a terrorist organization in the Twin Cities. The goal seems to be to harass and frighten people (the ones who are lucky enough to not be abducted, at least) and it's deeply unsettling when you learn they're in your neighborhood.

Not headline news. No real fuss by Democratic leaders. No calls to censure. No pushback. No questions asked of GOP leadership by the press.
Just totally accepted anti-Muslim bigotry across the board.

Someone on TikTok had a great point: Hitler was able to consolidate power and kill millions because the German people overwhelmingly supported him.
Trump doesn’t have that kind of support among Americans. A majority oppose MAGA and millions of activists are derailing his plans.
Keep fighting!

Trump is more diabolically crazy than Hitler.
He displays it on social media and in the press about 200 times a day.
He will eventually resort to killing his dissenters.

An FBI leaker says that no further Epstein files can be released without implicating Trump in criminal activity.
Do they think we don’t already know he’s a criminal? 🤨

Minneapolis and Saint Paul have basically mobilized into a war economy of mutual aid and non-violent defense. I’ve never seen anything like it, even during Covid. People who barely vote are guarding their schools from ICE and doing the shopping for neighbors in hiding.
This is so smart. I’m so impressed with all the different ways you’re helping your neighbors.
