This is the agent who murdered Renee. Share his image as widely as possible. I want to be able to put a name to this face.

it is because they want to impoverish the country! they don’t want high end manufacturing. they want americans working subsistence wages making t shirts and clothes hangers

This is part of what’s so insane. As they talk about re-shoring and manufacturing they are actively trying to destroy an entire us manufacturing industry that already exists.

Every time you see someone powerful acting like a craven coward in the face of this authoritarian menace, let it stiffen your own spine. We are all we've got.

If you haven't read Sinclair Lewis' IT CAN'T HAPPEN HERE, that's okay. It's good and short and makes a lot of excellent points about the creeping spread of fascism, but you've seen these same points retread over and over again since he wrote it... ...in 1935.

I want fucking handouts. I want handouts for myself, I want handouts for people on the poverty line, honestly I want handouts for everyone. The entire point of society is to hand out survival.

One thing I'm fucken sick of hearing is that people on the poverty line "don't want handouts." Well, the rich take hand outs. Maybe they're rich bc they were offered handouts. Maybe they're rich bc they take them. This "shame in receiving free money" for the poor but not the rich makes me SO MAD

I've been thinking a lot about that bumper sticker which says "everything looks like a conspiracy theory when you don't understand how anything works" and folks it's pretty obvious to me that the people in power right now have absolutely no desire to understand how anything works.

They learned something from their first term. The only thing that stops a bad guy with a grift is a good guy with principles. So this time they're firing all the good guys with principles.

Morning ducklings. It's getting darker in the mornings here and I am Not Ready for it. Ducklings were a bit skittish on the left because Sadie (puppy) was watching intently. We're going to do some fun Ignore The Poultry training.

We're cat sitting this weekend for our friends and they have a new kitten. It's obviously common for black cats to have a white patch or a few stray hairs but she has them speckled evenly all throughout her coat! So pretty! Like a night sky. ✨

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

Hidden History/1905: How President Theodore Roosevelt & Secretary of War William Howard Taft sold out the Korean nation to Japan in return for Japanese recognition of US control over the Philippines (where Taft had been Governor General). A story we should all know, as most North/South Koreans do.

Nobody is paying attention to things like this because the CDC no longer communicates. The current occupant of the White House broke government. He broke the ability to keep America safe. This is spreading, and this administration plans to pretend it doesn't exist. 828newsnow.com/news/228822-...
