It's a distraction to think of Fascism as goose steppers spouting hateful words. Fascism is the loss of distinction of public and private, the absence of a right to privacy. It’s underfunded public schools. It's teachers under attack. Expertise mocked. 1/4
It's citizenship reduced to public displays of affirmation and conformity. It's the beauty of violence. The war against others. Fascism is all around us. It is shifty and subtle. Focus. Fight back. 4/4
It's books banned, curriculum removed and critical thinking derided. Ideas and facts marginalized. It's a “glorious” history taught from the perspective of the dominant culture. Myths built upon. Hierarchy and order to be saved. It's the creation of fear and victimhood. 2/4
Dominant history and culture collapsing. The paranoia of internal and external threats is everywhere. It's the targeting of ideological opposition. It's the rhetoric and the stirred passions. 3/4
“85 percent of all Oregonians who are not registered are enrolled in Medicaid...That’s roughly 170,000 people in this state of 4.2 million who could be added to the voter rolls if the state began automatically registering Medicaid recipients.”

She went to one of those private segregationist schools that the GOP is trying to revitalize state by state under the cover of “school choice.”
@RepFeenstra
It’s in every worker right, benefit, and workplace safety measure. The low-info base catering GOP is erasing American history through public misinformation, privatization of schools, and the banning of books.
“The mysterious expenditures, which list no recipient and offer no receipts, account for nearly 12 percent of the Santos campaign’s total reported expenses — many times exceeding what is typical for congressional candidates…”
“The Republican governor’s campaign wanted weapons banned from his victory celebration...And the campaign suggested that the city take responsibility for the firearms ban, the official said — not the governor, who has been a vocal supporter of gun rights.”
“Newly disclosed messages and testimony from some of the biggest stars and most senior executives at Fox News revealed that they privately expressed disbelief about President Donald J. Trump’s false claims that the 2020 election was stolen from him...”
“Father Frank Pavone, a leader of the U.S. anti-abortion movement and a strong supporter of former president Donald Trump, has been dismissed from the Catholic priesthood for 'blasphemous' social media posts and disobedience to bishops.”
Can someone just mix the Speaker of the House nomination with the theme from The Benny Hill show? Also…like a video closing scene with McCarthy being chased by BoBo and Rapey McForehead. Thanks in advance.

Charley is mad because he doesn't get promoted for getting people killed with his promotion of extremist conspiracy theories and propaganda. Welcome to being a tool of billionaires.

Sucking up resources that won't be reimbursed as Des Moines area residents struggle to make it down their streets. Make trump great again, you clowns.
“After helping prince’s rise, Trump and Kushner benefit from Saudi funds.
An investment fund overseen by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is backing ventures that profit the former president and his senior adviser, raising questions of conflict.”
All the Conservative grifters are reviving the “Satanic Panic.” Now, it’s Rihanna’s “pentagram” belt harness (using an altered pic, nonetheless). It's not a pentagram. It’s a doctored photo, misinformation, and scare tactic as a cover for Right Wing racism and sexism. 1
“The new standards include increased representation of the experiences of people of color and a more direct examination of racism and white supremacy…how groups…resisted slavery and colonization, as well as the contributions of the LGBTQ+ community.”
“The New York legislature on Tuesday passed an amendment to the state constitution that would enshrine abortion rights and other protections in the wake of the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to overturn the federal right to abortion in Roe v. Wade.”
“A secret legal fight over the cellphone of Rep. Scott Perry (R-Pa.) has prevented the Justice Department for more than six months from reviewing more than 2,200 documents in the criminal investigation of former president Donald Trump and supporters...”
“Mr. Durham and Mr. Barr allowed a misleading narrative to gain traction in public...creating the misimpression that there might have been criminal wrongdoing by those involved in the Russia investigation...though the real investigation involved Mr. Trump.”
Many George & Kellyanne Conway tweets today. Fun fact: George met Kellyanne through Ann Coulter. George & Coulter were part of Paula Jones vs. Clinton. George was in the inner circle of Drudge, Ruddy, Ingraham, Carlson, et al. George & Kellyanne are fruits from the same tree.
For threatening to lynch the former Arizona Attorney General and a Maricopa County Supervisor over 2020 election fraud conspiracies, 65-year-old Iowan Mark Rissi receives a 30-month sentence.
“Melania Trump sponsored her mother to immigrate to the United States through a family-based process that former president Donald Trump aggressively sought to end…The records detail for the first time the full path that the former first lady’s mother, Amalija Knavs, followed
“The one thing that both Republicans in the House and media outlets seem to be overlooking is timing. Shapley filed his complaint in the summer of 2020. It’s the Trump Justice Department, the Trump FBI, and the Trump IRS he’s complaining about.”
“Law firm head bought Gorsuch-owned property…Gorsuch did not disclose the identity of the purchaser…
Since then, Greenberg Traurig has been involved in at least 22 cases before or presented to the court…” via

@LauraLoomer
Although, Laura is a milky resin-colored person, smeared with other colored toxic chemicals, the 200+ Black slaves that built the White House, and the hundreds of thousands of Black slaves that built the Southern economy and fueled the Northern economy disagree.
