Precisely this. Place the blame squarely on the people that actually got us here, despite everyone warning them what was coming.

If enough GOP voters hadn't been dumb or bigoted enough to support an insurrectionist and adjudicated rapist or if GOP congresspeople had shown the slightest bit of spine on behalf of the Republic in 2021, we wouldn't be having this conversation

Whatever happened to personal responsibility, Tom?

The idea that JD Vanceβ€”who has never been to Ukaine and chalks up his knowledge to shit he read on the internetβ€”believes he knows more about the situation in Ukraine than the man who has led it for the past 5.5 years is a perfect encapsulation of the havoc this administration is wreaking worldwide

Trump berates Zelensky, the leader of a democratic country courageously fighting Russian imperialism, while he allies himself with Putin, a dictator who started the bloodiest European war in 80 years.

Sorry, President Trump. We believe in democracy, not authoritarianism.

Trump's segregationist agenda is a reaction to Obama And we need to talk about it.

The Trump regime's segregationist agenda is clear.

I argue that having a Black man as president of white America enraged a portion of this country so much, that they decided to destroy any pipeline to Black advancement in academia, government, & workplaces.

This is almost too stupid to comment on, but I hope it's clear to everyone what's going on here: authoritarians bully you into doing little shit like this as a way to train you to comply, to grease the skids for bigger things. You talk yourself into a little thing, the next thing is easier.

"If no lawyer within earshot of the President is willing to give him that advice, then I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me." -- AUSA Hagan Scotten, SDNY.

What is it about watching a 4-year-old tell a 78-year-old with the maturity of a 2-year-old to "shut up and go away" that is SO deeply satisfying?

Tweet from Scott Jennings, saying "um, yes, that's really a problem," with a quoted image saying "The problem with left-leaning media is they're intrinsically more strict with their propaganda to only using verifiable sources so it's really hard to poke holes in their ideology and arguments in comparison to a lot of low quality right-wing content. That makes attacking their points with fact checkers not very effective unless the fact checkers use misinformation tactics as well. In essence, people on the right have to work harder and more creatively to push their agendas as statistics and studies frustratingly aren't usually on our side."

This is why they're attacking science and education: if you can only win with disinformation, data become a threat.

The rules, if you are keeping track:

If a single left activist anywhere in the world says "defund the police," it becomes the official position of the Democratic Party, now and forever.

If the president's top surrogate repeatedly sieg-heils on stage, it's ambiguous, impossible to interpret.
