Replacing the head of Bureau of Labor Statistics with a stooge, proclaiming that crime is up when it’s down, and taking over the Smithsonian are all about trying to take over facts.

But facts are facts whether or not Trumpists agree.

  2. Trump is destroying your lives, stealing the future for your kids and grandkids. Trump is stealing your heritage by trying to erase history. Take your hands off the Smithsonian you can’t undo what’s been done. All you can do is lie and cover up your own crimes, sec offenders will be prosecuted.

  3. Read 1984. They're going to chop away until they succeed. How's coverage of LA protests going? Radio silence except for the People's Press on the socials.

  4. The issue is suppression. When you control the narrative people have no other option if someone does tell the truth they will claim “fake news” that has been the plan from day one.

  11. Think about average intelligence today. Then consider that half of people are below that line. Facts are whatever people believe them to be.

    Was Columbus the first person to “discover” North America? No. But that was a “fact” for decades.

  12. Also, none of this changes the fact that Trump and a bunch of other high level pedophiles are in the #EpsteinFiles that he continues to cover up. Pink dress lady says case closed.

  22. And no one in the rest of the world will ever take Amerikkka’s data as truthful ever again. That credibility is out the window. We have no allies left.

  23. But if they succeed they will then erase the facts, change or manipulate the facts to suit themselves. So get off your A$$, right now, walk out that door and protest them trying to change the facts they don't like because once they're in position they will tell what they have decided the facts are

  26. We need to preface every fact with “according to Donald Trump”. There will need to be a sign in front of the Smithsonian saying the same thing Hopefully teachers and parents will teach kids how to research themselves

  27. This transparent shell game of distraction may fool the cult and placate the oligarchs but the rest of us are well aware of this bullshit and must continue to resist

  28. Right, because he cares about his ego and looking good.

    His people believe whatever he says, so he just keeps saying he's the greatest ever and they believe it.

    Meanwhile, the rest of us are able to show proof he's the greatest loser of all time, and he has to get rid of that for his ego.

  34. For sane people, for magats they don't care about facts. What we need to do is learn create and control the narrative. The Magat Party has done a better convincing idiots that their story is valid.

  35. Facts are facts, true. Facts only work to sway people when they believe them. Disinformation is a powerful tool to keep that from happening. Over in the bad place, it's all "Trump got Liberals to protest fighting crime"

  36. No they’re not when they’re erased and the books are rewritten, the factual ones are all now banned, it slowly, but most definitely rewrites history with a fiction that never existed!

  37. Facts- the Epstein files still exist and the kid-fucking sundowning coot in the White House is all over them.

  38. We the People will never know the true numbers. Similarly, Herbert Hoover denied the Great Depression. Trump denied the "Chinese virus." He denied knowing Epstein. He denied knowing E. Jean Carroll. He denied the 2020 election. He denied the insurrection. He denies ALL truths.

  39. Forbes, CNBC, Yahoo Finance etc… can still get job numbers from ADP, and all the same sources as the government. They can, and will publish them.

  40. He has one important constituency, and that's the American oligarch class. If/when he replaces Powell with a similar boot-licker and the stock market freaks out, that's when the tide will turn against him. As long as the rich are getting richer, he's safe.

  42. I went & bought as many history books as I could in some local bookshops in December 2024. We'll have to keep fighting for the record to be kept straight.

  44. Fact: They wouldn't be doing all this and blowing $200 million of taxpayer's money on a gaudy ballroom if they weren't planning on staying in power one way or another.

    If gerrymandering doesn't work they'll fabricate some "crisis", declare Marshal Law, and suspend elections and the Constitution.

  45. Trump appoints controversial loyalist to run neutral stats agency.

  53. They won't be considered facts for long if Trump keeps it up.

    Please call or email your GOP legislative cowards and let them have it. Do it often. I call my coward weekly. We have to harass them until they feel it. It's us or nobody.

  63. Facts are indeed facts But as every MAGAt knows, facts have a liberal lean, and if Trump gives them new facts, those are the facts they cling to.

    MAGATs believe gas is $1.99/Gal (except where they live), drug prices are down 1200% (except at their pharmacy), and the US is respected around the world
