The next 10 weeks require all of us who believe in democracy to set aside our differences and form a united front against fascism.

It's becoming clearer by the day that the choice in November is not Democrat or Republican. It is democracy or fascism.

The next time Trump rage tweets ’LAW & ORDER’, remember that 14 of the president's closest aides, donors and advisers have been indicted or imprisoned.

Trump knows he has to distract the nation from the pandemic that he has failed to control — leaving more than 182,000 Americans dead, tens of millions jobless, and 30 million hungry.

So he's stoking violence and moving from reliable Republican dog-whistles to outright bullhorns.

It's time to face the facts. Donald Trump is a fascist. Use the word.

I will use that word! TikTok versus Fascism!

Trump isn't doing it alone.

Fox News is sending his lies to 4.2 million viewers each night.

Twitter is conveying them to his 83 million followers several times a day.

Facebook is targeting them to tens of millions.

This isn't freedom of speech. It's the seedbed of fascism.

If the United States had done merely an average job fighting the coronavirus — if the U.S. accounted for the same share of virus deaths as it did global population — how many fewer Americans would have died so far?

About 145,000.

Trump is claiming an airplane full of “thugs” in “black uniforms” is out “to do big damage.”

Is he
A. physically unwell (stroke)?
B. nuts (full-scale paranoia)?

Either way, this is a serious problem. He still controls the nuclear codes.

Meanwhile, Zuckerberg refuses to lift a finger to rein in the fascism, dangerous disinformation and violent hate speech, and foreign interference that runs rampant on his platform.

Forgive me if I’m hesitant to celebrate.

Mark Zuckerberg, Priscilla Chan donate $300 million to promote safe, secure elections amid coronavirus pandemic

Mark Zuckerberg has raked in $40,800,000,000 since the pandemic began.

That's 136 times the $300 million donation he hopes will distract us from all the ways he's allowed fascism and misinformation to erode our democracy.

Billionaire philanthropy won't save us.

Tax the rich.

That Zuckerberg character.

I don't know man ... don't ya just feel uneasy when seeing his picture ...

That is why the 99% do not have a chance ...
