Try to love one another right now.
Woke up with this song playing urgently in my head:
Plz heed the lyrics:

Love is but a song we sing
Fear's the way we die
You can make the mountains ring
Or make the angels cry
Though the bird is on the wing

And you may not know why
Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now
Putin and Trump want a civil war. Don’t give it to them.

“History shows when extremist movements coalesce around a charismatic leader who focuses their anger..a tipping point is reached where extreme rhetoric is turned into violent action..violence tends to escalate unless..leadership [is] defeated.”@AOLaol.com/attack-capitol…
The dictator must be rendered powerless.
“Extremist movements also aggressively recruit from law enforcement and military communities to develop their hard power, a tactic perfected by the Islamic State, whose close alliance with Baathist military officers enabled it to launch a military-style juggernaut in 2014.”-@AOL

We are in a war for truth and have been begging FOR YEARS to take away his ability to bullhorn lies.
Trump sauced brains with a mind virus to distract from corruption and the media parroted all.
I have been reporting for years that countering lies by calling them lies is an ineffectual strategy when fighting a war for truth.

What is the first thing you would like to see Trump prosecuted and convicted for?
Clearly, justice is on folks’ minds
I would really like to see his alliance with Russia addressed, criminally.

As America celebrates its defeat of an authoritarian in the middle of consolidating power, it is critical to stay vigilant.

In my @BylineTimes interview with historian @ruthbenghiat she cautions these so-called “strongmen” often remain in the party’s DNA.

1/ Historian Ruth Ben-Ghiat’s latest book, Strongmen: Mussolini to the Present, details the precise moment in time when fascism was born.
2/ “World War One was this cataclysmic change,” she told Byline Times. “Multiple empires fell, including the Russian Empire, Hapsburg Empire, the Ottoman Empire. It created death on a scale no one had seen before. It created wounds no one had seen before because of new weapons.”
