Trump looks miserable when forced to meet America's once trusted allies and other leaders of the free world but is all smiles whenever he meets fascist murderous international war criminals like Putin.
It's as if Trump likes murderous thugs b/c he knows he is one.

How do you start your tern with control of the executive branch and both houses of congress and the only thing you manage to accomplish is tax cuts for the rich. No healthcare, no comprehensive immigration policy or anything that would benefit the people. It was by design.

Trump, seen here at today's G7, is clearly ditching all our former allies & friends to side with Putin, Xi, & Kim.

Our freedom & democracy might already be lost, & we may never recover them b/c Trump is making free & fair elections a thing of the past.

New: I wrote about everyone intently watching the long process of removing Trump’s name from the Kennedy Center and how it revealed our insatiable thirst for accountability — and for his humiliation.

A marathon livestream of Trump's name being removed from the Kennedy Center was a rare moment of monoculture.

You may not think you're fighting fascism by staying aware and informed. You are. Fascists are cockroaches who thrive in the cover of darkness & the obscurity given to them by propaganda.

Every time you see them as they are - you deny them that cover.

The truth is a powerful antidote to fascism.
