Old joke: at a protest, cop smacks liberal in the head. Calls him a "commie." "I'm an ANTI-Communist!" "I don't care what kind of Commie you are, you're coming down to the station house with me." Solidarity with all my siblings in resistance. The bad guys don't distinguish.
The President of the United States is suborning terrorism. whitehouse.gov/mediabias/?fbc…
I get in debates on X with right- wingers for fun (see my recent exchange Senator Mike Lee fans), and the words they use now bear a one-to-one correspondence to the 1920 KKK. Read this from the grand wizard, a document everyone should know. It is...MAGA. americanyawp.com/reader/22-the-…
Regarding the right-wing responses to this: tons of project projection. Conservatives can't imagine the possibility of holding judgement in abeyance while teaching. They can't imagine ever not seeing every interaction as an ideological war of all against all.
Really dumb, senator. I mean, most cops are Republicans. Authoritarians gravitate to authoritarian jobs; people who don't believe in reason and evidence gravitate away from...learning stuff.

You can read the letter here. Some enterprising young political writer could go through the paragraphs one by one and show why they were lies. govinfo.gov/content/pkg/CR…
In January 2009, Larry Summers sent a letter to Congress assuring them that the Obama administration would use the bank bailout money to help homeowners. Still one of the more important domestic policy documents of the last 20 yrs, in my view.
Greg Bonino's job is to create a fog of violence and lies to create an excuse for the dictator to invoke the Insurrection Act, so people the regime disagrees with can be shot.
This is a thread detailing a series of incidents where federal Judge Ellis rules that Gregory Bovino and his agents lied or misrepresented what was happening on the streets of Chicago. In this one, she says body cam footage suggests they brake checked to cause accidents
Could the Epstein Files kerfuffle take down Trump? Sure, maybe. Which could end up with Russell Vought and Steve Miller transferring allegiance to a MJT or Tucker Carlson or whomever. Don't take your eye off the big picture. It's the fascism, stupid.
