Progress or Backwards
As the train of fascism, steadily approaching the platform, slowly pulled in, the journalist traded clever ledes while the historians made notes and the politicians wrote letters.
- Reposted by Progress or Backwardsthis would be the kind of scandal that demands resignation if these people had any commitment to public service!
- WTH man? Real World bro also serving as Transportation Sec Sean Duffy reportedly changed his wife's flight to avoid Newark and then went on TV to broadcast it's safe to fly in and out of Newark. @paleofuture.bsky.social w the details. ↘️
- Reposted by Progress or BackwardsAOC: The math is not adding up. Their claim is that one million undocumented people are on Medicaid. So why are they trying to cut 13.7 million Americans off their healthcare?

- How much more in open defiance of a court order can they be? More in contempt? Maybe they’ll arrest another sitting judge? With his national police force? Disappear some more people to El Salvador or Libya? #NeverAgainIsNow #DumbFascism
- JUST IN: Judge Xinis says the DOJ has failed to file a privilege log regarding invocation of the state secrets privilege in Kilmar Abrego Garcia's case. She's giving them until 3pm or will construe it as "intentional refusal" to comply. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

- Stop bending the knee before you’ve even been struck down. We aren’t peasants, we have a nation of laws, we have no obligation to help them break the law, at least force republicans in congress to try and codify this destruction of our history.
- Americans need to hear from Mayor Pete and AOC more, to better understand who they are themselves and be afforded the ability to identify with real Americans. It’s always a good time to give them an out with the Manhattan Tabloid King who was born rich and is so dumb he ended up owing the Russians.
- Yes, legally speaking, a “gift” of more than $20 requires approval by Congress. Ethically, a statue celebrating the end of Civil War and freeing of slaves is a helluva lot different then a luxury jumbo jet he’ll keel after leaving office. This is so obvious, any argument otherwise is contrived.
- Remember when Rand got punched in his eye by his neighbor? He deserved it. I don’t care if he’s right on this, now.
- Was she registered as a foreign agent during that time? It seems like all the top Republicans have worked for foreign dictators. Weird group to make America great, when they’ve all worked towards opposing what defines American greatness. #DumbFascism #FUMAGA
- Reposted by Progress or BackwardsThe thing about Andrew Cuomo is, even if he weren’t corrupt as fuck, and even if he weren’t a creep, and even if he didn’t killed one of every four grandmothers in New York during Covid… he hates New York City and did everything he could to destroy it as Governor.
- Reposted by Progress or BackwardsFound on Reddit. We would absolutely play this game. Could bring about world peace tbh.
- I’m not sure any Americans know how much Qatar has been the meeting and financing location of Islamic terrorist groups for decades. Keep in mind, Trump did negotiate US withdrawal in Afghanistan with Taliban, and then gifted them $80 billion of US military gear right before departure.

- There’s something incredibly idiotic and un-serious about the people running our gov’t. What was once the preeminent power and purveyor of democratic ideals. Now just a bunch of lying, cheating crooks.
- Reposted by Progress or BackwardsOnce a foreign government can openly give the president a half-billion-dollar plane as a personal gift, there’s no red line left between a democracy and a full-blown kleptocracy. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/corruption...
- Reposted by Progress or BackwardsPaul: They started out at 145% got down to 80% now 30%. It is 30% more than we have on currently. It will be a 30% rise in goods coming from China, and somebody will pay that, it will be the consumer.

- A reminder that Qatar is not a good nation, who does business with anybody, and has been the banking and meeting place for Islamic terrorist for decades.
- Reposted by Progress or BackwardsIt's 2015. President Barack Obama has accepted a "sky palace" jumbo jet from the Qatari government, which he'll own after he leaves office. "Everybody relax," he says in an interview with the New York Times. Everyone does. The networks then televise the military parade in his honor on his birthday.

- Real timeline: nuclear war. My dream of a global government and androgynous unitards seems less likely now, than ever.

- It’s like the truth is right in front of all of us, but 1/3 is looking at their phones where Trump has told them to believe his lies over their own eyes. #ThisEndsBadly
- Reposted by Progress or BackwardsFOX News is falsely claiming Democrats “stormed” an ICE facility in Newark after Ras Baraka was arrested. In truth, Reps. McIver and Menendez had a scheduled inspection. Baraka was outside waiting when ICE agents arrested him for being on the property. MAGA spin fuels this kind of disinformation
- Reposted by Progress or BackwardsSomeone in my comments said "capitulation brings no safety" and that is something we all must understand. They will crush us and kill us no matter what. The only option is to join together and stop this madness. Find your courage, America.
- ICE is a bunch of shitbag clowns operating well outside their use of authorization and force. I’m not saying resist and catch another charge, but an El Salvadoran concentration camp sounds not great.

- Says who? Who is giving over this protected medical information? Can somebody get a backbone somewhere in the bureaucracy?!
- Sometimes, I think I learned yellow and orange on my own, so I have disagreed a lot about the color of things since I was a kid. What troubles me is the hundreds, thousands of people, I’ve shared my view with and they just said internally, “fuck it, whatever.”

- It’s worrisome how quickly you can see the world turn away from Holy Land genocide. Maybe a Pope that would defend the people, first ghetto’ed now genocide, of Gaza humanity. They’re just pawns, for Christ’s sake! un-necessary evil.
- Reposted by Progress or BackwardsWas just half listening to this report on CNN on airplane safety issues and I heard the word “extension cord” so I changed the channel. I’m not gonna let this country drive me crazy.
- Reposted by Progress or BackwardsHappy 99th birthday to the man who gave voice to the wild. 🎉 Sir David Attenborough, thank you for a lifetime dedicated to the natural world, and for sharing its story with wisdom, wonder, and grace. You've inspired generations to fall in love with nature.
- Somehow JD Vance closing the coliseum for his viewing and then skipping it, along with his eye makeup, he did this. How many anti-Christs do Christian conservatives in the states need to wake up!
