They fundamentally do not believe anyone other than them have legitimacy to govern. How does the country function when one party believes the other party has no right to win an election?

That we live in a country where something as innocuous as going to the airport and see something like this is mind bending. It’s psychic trauma on a daily basis

This is actually easy. He would end the world via nukes. He would be vindictive and bitter that he’s going so he takes us all. He has no human he loves enough to spare that fate.

Every time I see a BP agent with their BORTAC patch on tv I want someone to ask if they were one that was a coward at Uvalde. Left those kids to bleed out bc they were too scared to go in

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

starving over 40 million people right before major holidays + massively upping healthcare costs does strike me as a rather bold move this early in the authoritarian consolidation game for any given fascist regime, but I guess we’ll see what happens

SNAP functions as a fall back in order to keep these companies profitable while nationalizing their low paid employees.

This really feels like a starts slowly then all at once moment. His media ecosystem can lie to his supporters but when the family loses the farm, when the parents can’t feed their kids, and when they lose insurance the supporters will feel that.

If they are doing former Bearcats Do us all a solid and hire Tuberville then Crowdsource his salary. We can get him to at least 20 mil a year

How much money did the Black Panthers have on hand when they did it? The point isn’t to feed everyone getting fucked by this govt. But to feed some of them and build bridges long left to rot.

this is something that individual members of Congress could do tomorrow. The government is shut down so they could use their district offices. I suggested in January that they turn those offices into full on community centers where people could find each other re: mutual aid etc...

People will start to get desperate when these functions are cut off for too long. The media won’t be able to ignore the lashing out of ppl with no hope.

this is why i keep asking about the federal government's books, because everything they're doing is the kind of thing that creates massive accounting disruptions, and it's like no one in political media has even given a single thought to it

They don’t believe that. They happily choose that option in polls as a fuck you and a tribalized position. They take that option bc they think it somehow scores them points in the game of public opinion and politics.

Gentle reminder that polls don't gauge what is ethical or just. A poll about how "most Americans" feel about trans healthcare is simply a way to understand how effective media and religious campaigns have been in their transphobia.

I’d love our leaders to lead. They should be making the case for why trans healthcare is critical. Not following polls that can be gamed or interpreted. Lead on this bc it’s the right fucking thing to do. People will respect leadership. Not quisling little punks
