A century ago, Germany’s democracy was hijacked by a bombastic and charismatic tyrant — and in this five-minute video, you’ll learn how he did it. Why did I produce this? Because I believe that history is speaking to us, and all too often, those who refuse to learn from it are

This video is incredible. Everyone should RETWEET it so the whole *world* sees it.

The phrase "when they go low, we go high" is the liberal equivalent of bringing flowers to a gunfight. It's a smug, self-sabotaging mantra that preemptively neutralizes people like me who'd rather win material gains than smell my own farts on some fictional moral high ground.

I just got back from Donald Trump's inauguration. If it's any indication of what Trump's second term will look like, it'll be great for his billionaire donors and giant corporations, and pain and costs for everyone else.

I can like Necas AND be mad Mikko is gone.

Dump Thy Neighbor? As our new president and his favorite broligarch move to dismantle US foreign aid in the name of making America “great again,” consider this: There are 8 billion people on this planet. About half of them live on less than $7 a day. Around 10% are in what the

House Democrats will not provide a single vote for the reckless Republican Budget.

Republicans won the House, won the Senate, won the White House, brag about their mandate, refuse to negotiate, waited until the last second... ...but want to blame Democrats if there's a shutdown caused by *their own* incompetence? Yeah, no. People see right though this shit.

AOC slammed Mike Johnson, saying: “You run the government. If you have the votes, then go ahead. If you need Democrats, then you need to negotiate with Democrats. Those are your two options. Blaming someone else because your shoes are untied isn’t one.” dworkinsubstack.com/p/great-news-f…

I hope Senate Democrats understand there is nothing clever about setting up a fake failed 30 day CR first to turn around & vote for cloture on the GOP spending bill. Those games won’t fool anyone. It won’t trick voters, it won’t trick House members. People will not forget it.
