Authoritarianism thrives when information is controlled and uncomfortable truths are buried. Censorship isn’t just about banning books or silencing journalists. It’s about controlling what people know, what they question, and ultimately, what they believe.

Guess who predicted that the pedo would start a war with Iran? If you guessed Jeffrey Epstein, you’d be right. Keep talking about pedo’s place in the Epstein files. #JeffreyEpsteinWar

The Guardian view on Trump’s Iranian campaign: an illegal war that risks becoming the new normal. Force is lawful, under the UN charter, only in self-defence against an imminent attack or with security council approval. Neither condition has been met. | Editorial | The Guardian

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)

Fascists generally: 1. Say they work for you (when they work for other motives) 2. Say they will get things done (but do things to protect or enrich themselves first and foremost). 3. Be elected initially through democratic processes (which they’ll erode once in power). Yep, nothing to see here.

During Trump's first term, farmers lost over $27B because of tariffs. US taxpayers (YOU and I) paid farmers to make up the difference. Most of those taxpayer $ went to big conglomerate farms, not mom & pop operations. Trump is NOT a friend of farmers.
