The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased. Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power. Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable. But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless. Remember this.

Trump posted on Truth Social this morning claiming that Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson and Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker should be jailed for “failing to protect ICE officers.” Seriously? ICE officers are upset they can’t use restrooms or grab brunch.

Thanks to Trump’s tariffs on China, U.S. soybean farmers have lost their biggest customer and are grappling with higher prices for farming equipment. Now, Trump has said he will bail out farmers — supposedly with the tariff revenue that caused the crisis to begin with. Hello?

So the people causing the shutdown are getting paid. The people keeping the country running don’t. And Speaker Mike Johnson won’t let the House come back to work. So basically they’re on a paid vacation while Americans miss paychecks. Did I get that right?

WTF?!? Border Czar Tom Homan claimed that ICE and Border Patrol agents don’t need probable cause to detain people they suspect are undocumented, saying they can do so based on factors like physical appearance. This is straight-up racial profiling, not law enforcement.

A record 79 percent of American adults think immigration is good for the country, according to a new Gallup poll. That's because immigration IS good for the country — and our economy. www.youtube.com/watch?v=LCl9-uaKzv8

The people who lost children and other loved ones in the Texas floods are owed honest answers from officials. They should be told why flash flood warnings issued hours earlier were not conveyed to people in the path of the water. They don’t need more prayers from politicians. They need answers.

You won’t feel it yet—but you WILL. H.R.1’s timeline is a scam: Cuts to Medicaid, food aid, housing, student loans, hospitals? ALL delayed until AFTER the 2026 election. They don’t want protests. They want your vote first. Then comes the axe.

The first group of immigrants has arrived at a new “camp” deep in the Florida Everglades, where officials are openly describing it as “concentrating” certain people in one area. Have you seen the photos of the flooding? This entire site is a human rights violation.

Since 1980, there have been over 400 weather disasters in the US, with total damages over $1 billion. These disasters have cost $2.9 trillion in total and killed nearly 17,000 people. Don't tell me we "can't afford" to address the climate crisis. The truth is we can’t afford not to.

On July 4, 1776, Americans declared to the world their belief in freedom, not despotism. 249 years later Americans all across the country remain true to those beliefs. YES to freedom. NO to despotism.

This 2020 video features five descendants of Frederick Douglass reading and responding to excerpts of his speech, "What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?". The speech is a historical text that reminds us of the ongoing work of liberation.

I cannot emphasize enough how true & real this is. In almost anywhere on the political spectrum you ID with or major issue, there’s probably a bot/troll operation to encourage your rage and vitriol. And how/where that rage gets directed, esp understandable rage, is what they are out to influence.

If someone doesn’t ask Karoline Leavitt why she posted on social media that this bill includes no taxes on Social Security when she knows it is a lie and she intentionally lied to the American people, everyone in the room should lose their jobs.

Republicans are making sure the Medicaid cuts don’t happen until after the midterm elections. It’s cynical politics, and it will hurt their own voters the most.

Nothing like a little “creative accounting” to push a $3.3 trillion tax cut for the rich. Republicans are using an accounting gimmick to make it look like their tax plan doesn’t add to the deficit. Can’t pass it honestly? Just cook the books.

Mamdani: "I've already had to start get used to the fact that the president will talk about how I look, how I sound, where I'm from, ultimately bc he wants to distract from what I'm fighting for. I'm fighting for the the very working people he ran a campaign to empower that he has since betrayed."

Billionaire tax cuts are a policy choice. Cutting healthcare for millions is a policy choice. Cutting food assistance for children is a policy choice. Taking from the poor and giving to the rich is a policy choice. Make no mistake: Trump and the GOP are choosing to do this.

From a distance you can see a mountain landscape with a blue sky and a few hazy clouds. on the sides of the picture you can see parts of trees. On the left in light green, on the right a smaller dark green tree further away. in the center is a black box on which is written in white “Only caring about your own right is exactly how you lose them”.

There is no moral equivalence between bullies and the bullied, between tyranny and democracy, or between brutality and decency. No individual can be free in a society devoid of justice. There can be no liberty where brutality reigns.

A single person — Donald Trump — has released the dogs of war and done it without the consent of Congress, our allies, or even a clear explanation to the American people. Anyone who has doubted Trump’s intention to replace our democracy with a dictatorship should now be fully disabused.

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people: 1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money 3) We won’t need a lot of troops 4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq 5) We’ll find WMDs 6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators 7) It will be easy 8) It won’t take long All lies.
