Lexington police say officers used their Flock camera database to try to find a car tied to a road rage case. It led them to the home of Samuel Penn, who had nothing to do with the incident.

"Lots about Trump renaming New Mexico, New America. But people are too polite to point out Trump has no interest in renaming New England, New Hampshire, New Jersey, or New York. It's Mexico and Mexicans and Latinos he wants to taunt. It's idiocy, but it's also a dog whistle." ~ Bill Kristol

You can’t make this shit up. Thomas Ross, a Republican candidate for the Missouri House, won his primary by just 33 votes. Prosecutors say he plotted to have cocaine and Adderall planted in his opponent’s purse or car. He’s since dropped out of the race. Just a completely normal election. 🙃

There are states who have removed protections for children working. It is absolutely outrageous. Kids should have childhoods, vacations, food, all of it.

I have followed Sarah for many years, and whenever I chose to dismiss one of her takes as fancifully paranoid, she’s been right. Anyways, all we have is us 🙏
Only Trump is not a true fascist. Fascism requires allegiance to the state, which Trump lacks. The biggest threat to the US is not fascism but mafia state autocracy. Not 20th-century style dictatorship, but controlled demolition by a billionaire criminal network, abetted by complicit actors within the US government.
The strongman theory was always a strawman.

For over half a century, Trump has operated within a transnational organized crime network whose goal is to strip the US down and sell it for parts, much like the oligarch raids after the collapse of the Soviet Union. They have been aided in this endeavor by institutions, in particular the DOJ, which has long protected Trump, and by members of the Democratic Party serving as controlled opposition.

Many Americans did not want to believe this final twist. It is harder to reckon with betrayal than with a straight liar.
