This is not an ordinary policy disagreement with a reasonable compromise somewhere between the parties. One either supports fascism or opposes it. There is no fucking middle. Matthew needs to climb down out of his mother-fucking ivory tower in to our world of woe. A fundamental misunderstanding.

A Leon County grand jury found that high-ranking state GOP officials diverted $10M meant for children to the GOP's own PACs in the Hope Florida scandal. But if you talk about it, Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier, who is on the ballot, wants to have you arrested. So, def don't talk about it.

Meta took down the No Kings organizing page today - the biggest day of protest this fall. They provided zero explanation. It stayed down for the entire afternoon until most of the protests were done. Outrageous. Put this on the January investigation list.

The US is at war with Iran. Iran gets weapons from Russia. The US bankrolls Russia by ending sanctions and buying diesel. The US is so desperate to fund the military industrial complex that it has started fighting proxy wars against itself. These are unwinnable wars, not meant to be won.

Don't praise Marjorie Taylor Greene for supporting Ilhan Omar. MTG is part of a group trying to engineer a red-brown alliance of the far left and far right.

“Promise made, promise kept.” Katie Miller celebrated the raid on Trump’s political enemy, THEN DELETED HER BOAST. That reads like political revenge with a DOJ badge. Katie, deleting the tweet doesn’t erase the question: whose justice are you celebrating—America’s or Trump’s?

These agents are wearing disguises and masks, randomly shooting innocent people. They even posed as electricians in Phoenix last month to arrest a man in his own home. There's no end to ICE's cruelty and cowardice. We need to abolish and prosecute this rogue agency.

Michael Tracey published what he said was the ID of the "Jane Doe" in the Cornell case. Then he took it down, claiming he just wanted to make a point and didn't want to see harm to the person he named. What he hasn't admitted is that he mistook info on a sketchy site for official NY court records.
