FASCISM ALERT Friday, March 14th, Elon Musk shared an X user's post claiming that Hitler, Stalin & Mao didn't murder millions of people: public sector workers did. Elon quickly deleted it after it sparked a backlash. Free article from NYT.

This admin is cutting $400 mill to Columbia because even with a violent, unprecedented police crackdown, they “didn’t make Jewish students feel safe.” Meanwhile Def Sec Pete Hegseth’s press secretary is at minimum a Nazi sympathizer. I know what makes this Jew feel less safe.

Never ever ever forget this image of Elon Musk trying to rally the AfD--the Nazi-affiliated right--in Germany ahead of yesterday's election. They may not have won, but they doubled their support.

Trump’s executive orders are not law. This doctor knows it. Many hospital systems know it. Those that comply with something not passed by congress and with power not constitutionally granted to the president are cowardly.

I just deleted my Facebook account & I feel like a better person for it. Also, for anyone else thinking of doing this: a) plan on spending a LOT of time downloading your videos & photos if they aren't already saved elsewhere, and b) FB takes 30 days from the time you hit "delete" to actually do it.🙈

Almost 1 million of the 6 million Jews murdered in the Holocaust were killed at Auschwitz in German-occupied Poland. January 27th, 2025 marks the 80th anniversary of Auschwitz's liberation. Memory is fragile. A decade ago, 300 survivors gathered; on Monday, only 50 will assemble for the anniversary.

This is Carolyn Edwards. She was one of the first officers attacked and knocked out on January 6th. She bravely testified before the January 6th committee. She is one of the bravest people I know and she deserves better. (She posted this publicly on her FB page which is why I'm sharing publicly)

White House reporters are excited that after four years of boring interviews with subject-matter experts they now get the adrenaline rush that comes from the personal attention of a president who threatens to have them executed. www.cjr.org/political_pr...
Excerpts from a Columbia Journalism Review article: "Instead, White House reporters say, the Biden team preferred to offer background quotes from in-house experts" and "'For a lot of people, what was the point in even going?' said a veteran White House reporter." and "Trump, on the other hand, adores the attention of the media" and "'Despite his sometimes strident and sometimes even violent rhetoric about the press, he loves talking to us,' the print reporter said."
