The long game got us into this embarrassing clown show, and the long game will put us back on the road to universal health care, walkable neighborhoods, and StarFleet

If you're wondering why I haven't been dancing in the end zone over SECDEF Didn't Earn It's likely impeachment vote this week, it's in part because I've been burned about 12 times too many by the "BOOM!" "Tick Tock," and "The walls are closing in" posting of the past decade.
But remember what I said about how the regime has been acting as if under the assumption that public opinion doesn't matter anymore. The only way Hegseth goes anywhere is if Congress removes him. Triple-O still needs a proven ideologue to ensure there's no General Milley to tell him no when it's Hunker Bunker time. And perhaps no one other than Stephen Miller is more on board with the principle that ALL OF US who reject Christian nationalism and white supremacy are "the real enemy".
The next administration of emotionally developed adults has a lot of work to do. Not least of which installing better guardrails to ensure the fate of the free world never again hinges on the bad guys being such cartoonish narcissists they're not actually good at anything

Treating the free press like "the enemy" is anti-American
At Pete Hegsethโs briefing this morning, an official came out to tell reporters that if anyone "gets out of line" they will be "removed physically." Reporters shouted back "what does that mean?" Official said it meant to maintain "decorum" and added he was just relaying orders.

This is what I'm talking about when I say the regime considers all of us who reject Christian nationalism and white supremacy to be "the real enemy"
Award-winning journalist @jeanguerre literally wrote the book on Stephen Miller, Hatemonger. โHe is, above all, a sadist," she told me on @connectmsnow.

But but, but Fox Anti-Journalism saidโฆ
I know I wrote a post like this recently, but I feel like I am going to explode if I hear another Republican misuse the word "socialism."
For my Republican friends out there, let me explain what socialism actually means. Socialism is an economic system in which the means of production are socially or publicly owned, including through state ownership.
Universal healthcare is not socialism. Social welfare programs designed to prevent homelessness and poverty are not socialism. Free public education is not socialism. In fact, it is entirely possible to have a highly capitalist economy alongside an extensive social welfare system. Even Milton Friedman, one of the most influential advocates of free-market capitalism, supported a negative income tax to provide a basic income floor for the poor.
So please stop with the BS accusations of socialism every time someone proposes a social welfare program.
Ironically, some of the most conspicuous examples of state intervention in private enterprise in contemporary America come from the Trump administration itself. Its increasingly dirigiste economic policies include acquiring ownership stakes in private companies, asserting government control over corporate decisions, and imposing economically damaging tariffs on American businesses and consumers.
If you are genuinely concerned about government interference in free markets, perhaps you should start there.

And stop making everything a subscription
The backlash against data centres should be the beginning of a much bigger conversation about the tech industry. We need less technology forced into every corner of our lives, not more. Cars donโt need giant screens, refrigerators donโt need computers, and every aspect of our lives doesnโt need to be monitored, tracked or turned into another app designed to collect our personal data.

In the fash Upside-Down, the voices of non-Christians and minorities without a white-issued "Good Minority" badge are illegitimate by definition. This was the basis of "The 2020 election was rigged & stolen," then & now. Their feelings don't care about your facts
My piece yesterday was about how Christian Crusaders are planning another insurrection at the U.S. Capitol this January. Now they released this promo poster for it. 1/2

This is what they would do if the plan were:
- Sabotage the January transfer of power
- Inflict further provocations against our own people to generate "violent" resistance, e.g., "She tried to run him over"
- Invoke Insurrection Act

Donald Trump is the fash's last chance in our lifetimes to reimpose the white-Christian supremacy Barack Obama violated just by living his best life out in public. And with America now soundly rejecting this criminal regime's agenda, the clock is running out.
Moving Stephen Miller - the cancerous testicle at the heart of the racist Keep America White agenda - to White House chief of staff is what you do when you plan on ramming home as much harm, terror, and abuse as possible on the way out.
Expect the regime to sabotage the transfer of power in January. Last time "didn't work", but they didn't suddenly start believing in the will of the people. Ending the American experiment in self-governance and importing Russian style dictatorship has always, always, never-not been the long game.
There are lots of reasons to remain optimistic, but don't get complacent. The regime still has plenty of time to cause more harm at home and abroad.

Apocalyptic nihilism is the next step down from insanity: doing the same thing over and over again, expecting the SAME result, and just not caring

Nail his Blue Falcon punk ass to the wall, madam
Our servicemembers did not enlist in the military to fight Pete Hegsethโs culture wars. They raised their hands and took an oath to defend our nation and its people.
Secretary Hegseth will be held accountable for the damage he has done to our armed forces.

What "virtue signaling" would mean if it weren't a thought-cancelling nonsense phrase to sneer at speaking out against injustice and race-gender bigotry
Russell Brand begins his AmFest 2025 speech with a prayer:
"I thank you Lord that we have the opportunity to be here in unity. The opportunity for true unity, the opportunity for community, the opportunity to be different, Lord. I thank you, Heavenly Father, for Erika Kirk's boldness in her bravery, and for her example of forgiveness, and surely if she can forgive the people of the man responsible Lord for the murder of her husband, surely this principle of forgiveness is something that we can all extend. Lord, may we know your grace.โ
