The end of America in just 100 days. Electing Republicans has consequences.
btw the katy perry/bezos' girlfriend/other four irrelevant billionaires 10 minute space stunt was not the first all female expedition no matter how much they try to market it as such. the first all female mission was in 1963 with soviet cosmonauts Valentina Tereshkova, Irina Solovyova and Valentina Ponomaryova - all three of which were working class and had to pass incredibly hard exams to be chosen from 400 potential candidates. just in case we started falling for the propaganda machine again
At their core, these people are bullies. The cruelty is the point.
This is enormous. Please spread this news.
FOIA is the Freedom of information Act, which allows citizen oversight of government activity. It means you can request to see government records. This is so ubiquitous that all federal employees take yearly training about it. What this means is that DOGE knows they are committing crimes as they decimate the federal workforce and compromise its systems, and so they are now moving to exempt themselves from all FOIA requirements so no one can see what they are doing.
Do I have this right? During the election, the fascist republicans were an existential threat to everything we hold dear in America, and the only way to stop them was to send $3 or $5 or whatever to the bullshit fund, so we could elect Democrats who will stop it.
Okay, we tried that and we lost. So now we are really relying on those same Democrats and that same Democratic party to do everything within their power to protect us from the terrifying threat they all warned us about.
Some Democrats have been amazing -- Jasmine Crockett, AOC, Chris Murphy all come to mind -- while the leaders in both houses continue to do nothing more than spout empty platitudes in public, and rubber stamp the most incompetent, unqualified, dangerous, nominees in the history of the country.
There's not a lot the House can do now -- that's coming up soon -- but the Senate has had a number of opportunities to slow things down and make it hard for the fascists to enact their Project 2025 agenda.
And the Senate leader, with the exception of one performative and ultimately pointless filibuster, has done fuck all with the powers the minority has in the chamber.
I am furious that Schumer allowed his caucus to grant unanimous consent for anything, but he's done it, again, and this time we have Tulsi Gabbard -- Tulsi fucking Gabbard! -- as the Director of National Intelligence as a result.
Chuck Schumer is an absolute failure of a leader in the Senate. We are crying out for leadership and support as we fight to protect America from these fascists, and instead he insults and demoralizes us with droning lectures like we've all been called to the principal's office, and an absolute refusal to fight for anything.
I got thousands of text messages and emails from Democrats all over the country, correctly warning us that if Trump were not defeated, we were looking at a nightmare of fascism, crony capitalism, corruption, and targeted cruelty.
Well, we’re here … where is the fucking fight, Senator? Did all the existential threats just vanish the day after the election?
Schumer has made it painfully clear that he values some version of Senate collegiality that no longer exists, and that he has zero fight in him.
This moment demands action and a willingness to use every single lever of government to slow this down, and this old, wealthy, out of touch, effete, relic of a time that no longer exists is catastrophically letting us all down.
These men just stole the personal information of everyone in America AND control the Treasury. Link to article.

As of Jan 21st, 2025, a full copy of the constitution is no longer available on whitehouse.gov. I feel like this is a good time to remind everyone that the biggest threat to authoritarianism and facism is a well educated and informed population. Inform yourself and fight.
a copy of the document can still be found on the archives website. I think now is probably a good time to read it if you haven't and download it, incase it is erased from here as well.

Read it twice.

INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS (2009) dir. Quentin Tarantino
“What we’re witnessing online during and in the aftermath of these hurricanes is a group of people desperate to protect the dark, fictitious world they’ve built. Rather than deal with the realities of a warming planet hurling once-in-a-generation storms at them every few weeks, they’d rather malign and threaten meteorologists, who, in their minds, are “nothing but a trained subversive liar programmed to spew stupid shit to support the global warming bullshit,” as one X user put it. It is a strategy designed to silence voices of reason, because those voices threaten to expose the cracks in their current worldview. But their efforts are doomed, futile. As one dispirited meteorologist wrote on X this week, “Murdering meteorologists won’t stop hurricanes.” She followed with: “I can’t believe I just had to type that.” What is clear is that a new framework is needed to describe this fracturing. Misinformation is too technical, too freighted, and, after almost a decade of Trump, too political. Nor does it explain what is really happening, which is nothing less than a cultural assault on any person or institution that operates in reality. If you are a weatherperson, you’re a target. The same goes for journalists, election workers, scientists, doctors, and first responders. These jobs are different, but the thing they share is that they all must attend to and describe the world as it is. This makes them dangerous to people who cannot abide by the agonizing constraints of reality, as well as those who have financial and political interests in keeping up the charade.”
— I’m Running Out of Ways to Explain How Bad This Is - The Atlantic
“About ten paragraphs in it notes in passing that of the more than 45 people the reporters spoke to for the piece over several months “most of those who said Biden performed poorly were Republicans.” The use of Johnson and McCarthy as the two main fact witnesses is extraordinary on a few levels. The first and most obvious is that “Biden archrivals currently running against him say he’s way old and losing his edge” doesn’t have quite the punch of the article as presented. The other is that Biden famously managed to overmatch McCarthy in the debt ceiling negotiations that led to his fall from power and Biden’s personal lobbying seems to have played a key role in the eventual passage of Ukraine aid this spring. In other words, if Biden’s really losing it, he still managed to handle both guys pretty well.”

Breaking from the Journal: Kev McCarthy and Mike Johnson Say Biden’s WAY Old
A couple of lying clowns told lies about President Biden, and the WSJ dutifully reprinted the lies without context or criticism.
This shit is crazy. Huge papers like the WSJ and NYT are just constantly presenting right wing lies – easily disproved lies, at that – as a matter of opinion, not a colossal and horrifyingly effective effort to gaslight and mislead voters.
It’s exhausting, and now that the Washington Post is on its way to being consumed by the British tabloid cancer its new editorial team is bringing to America from the Murdoch Bullshit factory, it’s only going to get worse.
The corporate media has a manifest low standard for Trump and a separate set of higher standards for everyone else.
Trump is political diarrhea in a white suit, completely dripping down both legs, filling his shoes, leaving a snail-like path of filth.
Can the media start framing Trump and Republicans as fascists? Can the media get GOP Congress on record explaining why the party has so many fascist policies? Can the media force the GOP Congress to explain what fascism is AND explain how their policies are not fascist?
Reblog if you're gay, lesbian, bisexual, pansexual, asexual, transgender or a supporter.
This should be reblogged by everyone. Even if you’re straight, you should be a supporter.

There's no debate: FOX is a sister station for Russian state media.
