I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

I think this is THE important story of the year. I cannot believe that the entire GOP establishment is letting all thing happen simply because their are afraid of being primaried. The only explanation is that they want all this to happened, and are hiding behind his shadow.

There is an obvious, inescapable answer to why the GOP Senate and House leaders are not fighting this: because they want it to happen.

Bolton’s home raided, Gen. Kruse fired, Epstein coverup proceeds, seizure of 10% of Intel another step towards state capitalism. Just one day in the somewhat chaotic but directionally purposeful march towards…despotism.

Does anyone think they’re doing all this so they can hand over power in 2028?

Israel won't let food into Gaza. Apparently Benjamin Netanyahu doesn't care if Israeli hostages starve to death too. Or does he think their captors will feed them while watching their own children slowly die a horrifying death?
