One of the things I wish u media/academia would talk about is how far right awa how opposing political power (dems) have allowed far right make US ed/media/politics/etc waste resources to re-litigate fights that have been won diverting them from addressing vital issues like climate/poverty/etc.

History is written by those who are wanting to write it. Also, there are other political groups that have power over the goal post (pssst, it's the @democrats.org). So, far, I'm not seeing that party lifting a fucking finger to stop the re-writing. They leave it to social media for public awareness.

U know why? Because u fucking Democrats did NOTHING to hold him accountable, especially by refusing to build a mssg machine to control narrative. Had Pelosi used her vast political power in Trump's impeachment for Jan 6 as she did to oust Biden, McConnell might have gotten Senate to convict Trump.

Sorry. Still not impressed from Schumer. This has been long-time in the making esp since the Limbaugh Fox News start. Fucking Dems IGNORED HUNDREDS of road signs over the decades. They were incredibly deluded esp must win 2024, that they could serve donors, listen to consultants instead of voters.

Likely article d/n address SCOTUS. Itβs a huge mistake bec the 6 cons rulings are inextricable from Trumpβs actions. Academia esp legal academia needs to drag those rulings in public making it clear that because they are legally unsound, they should be viewed as having little validity for the public

3 layers of amplification of Trump talking point and why/how he dominates all of media including on the left: 1st layer is Trump answering major mediaβs inane questions that have no value, 2nd layer Trumpβs stenographer for left @acyn.bsky.social, 3rd layer is retweet by another left/prog account.

Excellent, excellent, excellent. This makes the most sense of what's happening to Trump, really gels together the multiple disparate factors, including Trump's sudden preoccupation with death. Shout out to @reallyamerican.bsky.social whose video I came across that featured this thread.

If u journos, democratic advocates face Dems present/past failure to be proactively fighting for democracy INCLUDING campaigning in a way that reaches voters that Dems failed to do 2016/2024 so that those voters will vote them in, we can know if todayβs Dems will reverse Trump dictatorship.
