Ya'll...a personal note. I have had this account for 13 years, but became more active when TFG started screwing up our country. I don't actively pursue followers, but I reached 1000 today, and wanted to say thank you. Our conversation on this platform has (mostly) saved my sanity
So the GOP front runner sexually assaulted E.J. Carroll and no one bats an eye, but Fani Willis has a consensual relationship and everyone is losing their minds. If Fani was a white male, you wouldn't hear a thing...
The GOP is not going to stop him; the RNC is not going to stop him; the primaries are not going to stop him; SCOTUS is not going to stop him...WE ARE GOING TO STOP HIM....VOTE!!!!!
My Senator Rick Scott committed Medicare fraud, had to pay a $1.7 billion dollar fine, pled the 5th 75 times, and walked away with $300 million. He is now on MTP, with a straight face, talking about the need to eliminate insurance fraud in Florida in the wake of Hurricane Ian.
What a great idea - MAGA needs to descend on MAL to show their support. Bring in RV's, porta-potties, a stage for Kid and Ted, the works, stay for weeks. Call it MAGA-Loozer. I'm sure the citizens of Palm Beach County would welcome the publicity and tourist dollars.
Speaker John Boehner asked who would fall under his definition of a political terrorist: "Jim Jordan especially, my colleague from Ohio. I never saw a guy who spent more time tearing things apart ― never building anything, never putting anything together."
trump is crying because he can't attend Barron's high school graduation. FYI: he didn't attend Don Jr.'s, Ivanka's, Erics, or Tiffany's H.S. graduations. And Barron's graduation is on a date when the court isn't even in session.

When your party drives out the likes of Cheney and Kinzinger; embraces the likes of McCarthy, Gaetz, and Jordan; lies about election results; downplays an insurrection; and continues to support the likes of tRump...you get what you deserve. And the country suffers along with you.
Biden immediately agreed to DeSantis request for a state of emergency in Fl without any fanfare, degrading Tweets about a red state, magic markers extending the cone, or quid pro quo...you know, like a president is supposed to do.
Hey Ohio. He's been there forever and has done ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. No legislation. Wasted 3 years and millions on Benghazi and now has was wasted three more years and millions trying to impeach Biden. He is an embarrassment to your state and to the nation. VOTE HIM OUT!
#Ohio
NO! NO! NO! If nothing else is disqualifying, this certainly is. WE MUST NOT PARDON TRUMP. Pardoning Nixon is how we got trump. He must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, and if found guilty, imprisoned for his crimes!
Nikki Haley: “I would pardon Donald Trump because I think it’s important for the country to move on. We’ve got to leave the negativity and the baggage behind. I don’t want this country divided any further.”
2/3/59 "The day the music died." Tommy Allsup lost his seat to Richie Valens on a coin toss. Waylon Jennings gave his seat to the Big Bopper who was suffering from the flu. They, along with Buddy Holly, lost their young lives on a snow covered field in Iowa - 65 years ago today.
Nancy Regan was against stem cell research until her husband got Alzheimers. You shouldn't have to experience something for it to matter. I'm not a big pot smoker, but I'm glad for the pardons; I don't have a student loan, but I'm glad for loan forgiveness...the list goes on.
Justice y’all! Today’s news of the Mar-a-Lago raid bumped my Friday night up to Monday. Who else is celebrating those fine men and women of the FBI and DOJ?
Is it just me, or does it seem like someone who refused to honor a subpoena from Congress shouldn't be elected to lead Congress...looking you Kevin McCarthy, Jim Jordan, and Scott Perry.
Ya'll, I'm liking Beto's vibe. I haven't lived in Texas for years, but Texas is ripe for picking. Texas has an independent streak that likes authenticity. To me, I see echoes from the Ann Richards years. It's time...
Ya'll, I will be the first to say we desperately need younger Democratic leadership; however (warning: unpopular opinion ahead), it's been the experienced old goats like Biden, Pelosi, and Schumer who have gotten all of this major legislation moving with razor thin margins.
If you were a parent in 1953, you would be fighting to get your child vaccinated. Why? Because you saw what polio was doing to children all across the country.
@DearAuntCrabby
Evidently there were weapons or he wouldn’t have wanted the Mags turned off. Perhaps they were waiting for the signal that they had been turned off before bringing weapons in full scale. Caches of weapons were found in hotel rooms.
Wow. Fox News host Neil Cavuto just cut away from Trump’s speech after the corrupt former president lied again about the economy and the 2020 election:
“Even though the former president is entitled to his own opinion, he’s not entitled to his own set of facts.”
Can you imagine the response if you told an American GI returning victorious from the European Theater in 1945 that just 78 years in the future, a guy who quotes Hitler and is facing 91 felony counts has already been president once and is the GOP front runner again?
GOP Speaker Newt Gingrich resigned after an ethics violation in 1988. Republicans replaced him with Dennis Hastert (bad to worse) who served until 2007, but was later convicted for serial child molestation...the highest ranking elected official in history (so far) to go to prison
Yes the Hunter Biden investigation was a Russian operation. Everything the GOP has done since 2016 to bring down America is a Russian op. trump is owned by Putin. The GOP are owned by Putin. WAKE UP AMERICA!
#GOPTraitorsToDemocracy
Not all of the GOPpers are dullards, some are quite smart. They know they are playing a game, they know it's a death spiral, they know TFG is a crook and a con. They are simply afraid to admit the truth. I have never seen such group of cowards in public office.
Dems crying about not wanting Joe to run again, need only to look at the way he gleefully and effortlessly handles GOPpers on the public stage. No one does it better.
Ya'll there are some twitters floating around today about voting for Liz Cheney for president. Tut, tut..lest we forget, she voted with tRump 93% of the time. Just because she is against TFG doesn't mean she has suddenly turned liberal. She's dyed in the wool, ya'll.
Another reason trump
can’t keep doing rallies, besides he’s broke, is that he owes $ to cities all over the country for rallies he never paid for. And El Paso is suing him. What a con.
#TrumpIsACriminal
Donner Pass? A winter storm that has been predicted for days? Did they think it was fake news? Some type of conspiracy? Did trump use his black marker to divert the storm? (Things that make you go...huh?)
So it appears that GOPpers are approaching today's news in three ways : a) bewilderment and silence b) saying that we are next, big guvment and the deep state are coming for us all c) Hunter Biden
@millersarah47
I guess I have a different take than most. If love ever existed, even for a moment in time, it’s a beautiful and precious thing. Even if it’s gone, long gone, it’s best to remember it fondly when (and if) possible and know you were fortunate to have lived it.
A common GOP myth is that Trump had everything, but chose to step down from his gold throne and save America. The truth is, he needed a con to bolster his brand because after 6 bankruptcies, he has been on the verge of financial collapse. His cash cow is being set out to pasture
Mar a Lago was appraised by Palm Beach Co. at $28M; trump valued it at $612M - approximately 2200% more. The equivalent is having a $300,000 house and saying it is worth $6.6M.
When they show you who they are, over and over again, believe them. They onIy hold the House by a thread. The momentum is still ours - they haven't dominated an election cycle since 2016 and they are on the ropes. '24 can can close the door on trumpism. All hands on deck! 🏴☠️🌊
Ya'll I am completely overwhelmed. I have reached my follow back limit, but will do so as soon as I am allowed. We are all in this together. We need each other to remind ourselves that our country doesn't have to be their way.Let's ride that Big Blue Wave to November!
Anyone checked in on the NYC trucker boycott? That was two weeks ago. How about the trucker convoy to the border? Y'all, J6 was the last time maga could organize with any momentum. trump is going to lose - there will be stomping and snorting, but there won't be a civil war.
The DOJ tells us what we already knew. 300 officers failed to stop an 18 year old with an AR-15 in Uvalde.
The Republican DA continues to prevent the release of critical body camera footage in an attempt to cover up the sh** show that unfolded.
Gonna say this now - when the time comes, there will be those who think the GOP enablers and the country will have suffered enough. NO. That's what got us here with Nixon. Every single sycophant/traitor who aided and abetted from janitor to Senator needs to be prosecuted.
Any of y’all thinking there might be more to this than “just” the documents? He’s always grifting - perhaps evidence of selling said docs to highest bidder. Other ideas?
Tucker: They were just documents, not bombs
Ingraham: Thank God Trump stole them, not Obama
Hannity: Nothing happened, so it’s okay
McCarthy: He was President, so he can steal them
Lady G: He was going to return them
McConnell: People should follow the right process
maga is calling this "entrapment day"? I can go along with that - trump incited his people to storm the capital and many are now in prison. So yes, trump did trap them. They are paying the price for the insurrection, while he roams free, seeking who else he can devour.
And he was in Memphis for the sanitation workers strike when he was assassinated. May his memory and his legacy compel all of us to value every person, every person's contribution, every person's life and liberty. Thank you for this quote and this reminder...
If I told Joe Biden he was a boring old white man, he would probably agree. But he is a historic example of an effectiveness. We don't need presidents to entertain us or bring drama to the world stage; some demigod with a cult of personality. Give me boring old Joe any day.
J6 Chair Bennie Thompson tests positive for COVID. Thursday hearing will go on as planned with Cheney taking the gavel. Prayers and best wishes to Chairman Thompson for a speedy recovery. His dulcet Southern tones have gotten me through these hearings.I love that guy!
Sorry, but Gerald Ford didn't "save our country" by pardoning Nixon. He likely enabled where we are now. (For example, Congressional subpoenas mean nothing.) If t-rump is not held responsible and is pardoned, we will not survive the next demagogue.
Gerald Ford saved our country by holding his nose to pardon Richard Nixon. Joe Biden should do the same for Donald Trump, retired professor David McGrath writes.
For the life of me, I don't understand how anyone of retirement age and either currently receiving, or expecting social security benefits would vote for anyone who threatened those benefits.
Sean Hannity: "If you are associated with Donald Trump in any way, you better cross all your I’s and dot all your T’s because they are coming for you...if they can do this to President Trump, what do you think they can do to the rest of us?"
Surely you know how the law works Jer. See the DOJ/FBI have to follow the law. You know the lady with the blindfold and the scales in her hand? We call her Lady Justice. She is impartial and can't see who is tipping the scales, even a former pres. No one is above the law.
It's the Big Picture people. Some crying because they didn't get what they want with Biden. Boo-hoo. He's a politician, not the messiah. I was young and idealistic once-time to leave that astern. If you can't see the current difference between Dems and GOPpers, I can't help you.
Ya'll. If the GOPpers gain power again, they will never, ever let it go. They are setting it up under a totalitarian rule. The stakes at the midterms could not be higher. Let's all Ride that Big Blue Wave!
Tom, I respect you even more for admitting this, but we all had out doubts, yours was just a bit more public. I am hopeful that this will be a very good thing for the future of our country.
Warnings that violence is coming, they openly threaten the rule of law. I am confident that all levels of law enforcement are watching closely. This isn't a monarchy, or a dictatorship. In a democracy, no one is above the law.
Anyone else seeing this? None of my regulars are showing up and I get some of the same tweets on repeat. I have to look up the content I want instead of how it used to show up on my feed....
We are always at risk from demagogues, but I never imagined that we would fall for one in my lifetime. As the sun sets on the Trump White House, I wasn't sure we would make it. It is our house, you know. We select who resides there. Let's work toward better choices in the future.
Every branch of government is compromised: executive (Secret Service), legislative (J6 enablers), judicial (SCOTUS). There is no one super human coming to save the day. Only one way this gets cleaned up - an overwhelming, unmistakeable, BLUE WAVE beginning with dog catcher.
Some good news out of FL. A Democrat, just FLIPPED Florida’s 35th State House District, which Ron DeSantis won by eleven points in 2022. Can you say "bellweather"?
I’m a Florida boater. Trump flags are now the exception, not the rule. Even Little Ronnie DeSantis flags are on the wane. magats are still around, but they are creeping back into their holes.
Sarah Palin was John McCain's running mate in 2008. She would appeal to the trumpists of today. Cut from the same cloth as the likes of Kari Lake and the trailing edge of the cloth in Marjorie Taylor Green. Those GOP women are truly an unlikeable bunch...
What, is it the makeup? Maybe it's the girdle? How about the lifts? Perhaps all the hair gymnastics? I know, is it paying for sexy time? Ya...there's a ton of masculinity there.
This GOP candidate is the same douche canoe who said he'd "send FBI agents home in a body bag". He is running to represent Florida's 16th Congressional District. Let's make him famous.

: trump was supposed to win Vermont by 30 points - it's tied. When are we going to stop paying attention to polls? Polls are manipulated and made to look like trump has momentum, simply for clicks and eyeballs.
Will someone PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE look at me? I am in need of attention VERY VERY badly. I act out in an attempt to convince you that I am intelligent and understand the issues, but mostly I’m in over my head and in DESPERATE need of validation!
J6 was not just a riot, it was an insurrection - designed to disrupt the peaceful transfer of power that has transpired in this nation for over 240 years. And it was instigated by one person, telling a lie. That person should not be on the ballot. That person should be in prison.
I lived these: Nixon sabotaged Vietnam War peace talks to win in 1968; Reagan encouraged Iran to hold onto US hostages to win in 1980. Now trump wants the GOP to kill border policies to help him in '24. They care nothing about America. They only care about winning and power.

Why do you think that is the solution? It's no cheaper to do that. Buying the land and building that home right now in most parts of the country is still over $200,000 - well out of range for average college educated young Americans.
