The airman accused of leaking #Pentagon secrets apparently has a history of racist and violent comments:
From the archives | This 2013 report on white supremacist activists has proven itself time and again over the last decade -- despite complaints from far-right blogs, certain politicians, and other fellow travelers:
The nation is not “barreling toward default,” nor is it “careening,” or even “drifting” there. It is being pushed there by Republicans. Please read and share: https://presswatchers.org/2023/04/republicans-threaten-to-tank-economy-media-blames-biden/

Members of the Supreme Court:
‼️Accepted payments from billionaires and special interests
‼️who had business before the court
‼️and kept that info from the public
‼️now they are refusing to comply with a Congressional inquiry about it
The Court is de-legitimizing *themselves.* https://twitter.com/basedmikelee/status/1651369912215158784

I like the dominos! Not sure who isn’t on Twitter anymore, but @Neurograce is active and thoughtful here.
Fascism isn't about popular support, it's about using the roughly 25% of the population with the absolute worst reactionary impulses, to create the ILLUSION of support. Not even Nazism itself, was a mass movement. This is once again a little story the capitalist told you to explain "why Hitler" and keep you from noticing we seem to have plenty of our own would-be Hitlers and capitalist society not only does nothing about it, but empowers and enables them.
"We are putting decorum over democracy and our values," said Congressman Ro Khanna. "It's time for Sen. Feinstein to step down gracefully." He's right. Her inability to do her job is causing real damage.

Dwyane Wade's revelation that he moved out of Florida because of hostility to his trans daughter is important, potentially making the issue real to people for whom it might otherwise be abstract/easy. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/04/27/dwyane-wade-transgender-florida-desantis/
Folks as politely as I can put this:
These people are fascists. Their political party? Is fascist. If we were living in a sane society, they would all be in jail, and NO they absolutely do not have a "right" to political office. If I had my way every single one of them would be barred from running, for life, because? They're fascists.
Please stay out of my mentions with bullshit advocacy for the Devil, I'm not interested.

@jaysonmassey then dont thats fine. No need for you to get antagonistic. Just walk away if you dont want to talk.
What's even more aggravating is how #BillBarr inserted the DOJ into #EJeanCarroll's civil case Trump.
In essence, Bill Barr was claiming that acts of rape, before Trump became president, was retroactively a "presidential duty", thus defending Trump from E. Jean Carroll was obligatory.
This is what Republican billionaire donors buy in their vassals, impunity. Bill Barr should be investigated.

Today is a beautiful day to remind ourselves that while we live at a time of gun violence, and the cowardly hypocrisy of people like #Trump and #TedCruz and #GymJordan seem ascendant, we are also living in a moment when courageous people like #ZooeZyphyr come to the fore to prove values such as courage and integrity still mean something.

Bear in mind that, while I may "like" your "toot", about a person, event or particular topic, if it links to the "bird-site" I will no longer boost and inadvertently contribute to their grift. Everyone has a choice and a part to play when crimes go unpunished.
