What makes this moment different & unusually dangerous, is that we have never had a sociopathic president; who relishes cruelty & encourages violence; who refers to his political opponents as “vermin,” echoing the rhetoric of 20th-century fascists;
"They hate the United States military because it's a part of the United States government. The GOP has become anti-American, anti-government, anti-the United States. That's their shtick now. Now, it's just this nihilistic attack on American institutions."
@WalshFreedom
Why do Dems *always* have to try to understand GOP voters and not the other way around. Deep dives at folksy diners and bowling alleys, etc. I've never seen a focus group, news story or anything really where Trump voters were implored to try to understand why we voted for Joe.
Trump operatives in the media & political worlds assumed Weiss’s scheme to maximize the public exposure of personal & familial pain for the Bidens would harm Joe Biden politically. But as any non-sociopath would have anticipated, the very opposite happened.
The indictment show the aggressiveness of the special counsel to find something, anything, to hang on Hunter to placate the right. It shows Weiss going as hard as possible on tax charges, made all the more absurd because Hunter already paid the back taxes.
@RpsAgainstTrump
I say bring it on! They seem to get off on humiliation and ridicule 😂Imagine Raskin and Goldman dismantling their sorry asses on national tv?
Hmmm, don't remember this grandstanding prick DeSantis holding an authoritarian press conference flanked by LE when these Trump voters were charged with voting fraud. Oh, right -- they were white.
The media will never ask: Why do GOPs in trouble with the law threaten judges and jurors, but Dems never do? How could Biden rig a state prosecution of Donald Trump, but not a federal prosecution of his own son? Do you understand how ridiculous you sound?
@joesantarlasci
Oh, I am devastated to hear the news. I’m so sorry for the loss of your dad. I looked forward to reading every one of his posts and comments. A very special human and force for good. The world needs more of him. He will not be forgotten ❤️ love & light to your family
@RepTroyNehls
So fundamentally dishonest. Surprised you didn’t post a Bible verse with it. Crooked cop, faux Christian and America-hating insurrectionist. Trifecta of horrible 🤢

I think he’s fighting to turn Texas blue. I think we blue staters can’t afford to be complacent either in the face of imminent fascism. All hands on deck!
@MikeLoychik
Every single American citizen has a God-given right NOT to have their bodies blown to bits by weapons of war that insecure men who are afraid of their own shadows think they need to prove…something, something freedom # overcompensationmuch?
MUST READ: Fascists always start by declaring themselves the victims of others. Victimhood is essential to the fascist worldview; it’s at its core. And it’s their excuse for destroying other peoples lives.
This is not a drill, folks!
For the Q followers having a hard time digesting the reality they’ve been victimized by a psychological operation, you are not alone.
Mike Flynn & the Russians have been waging psychological war on ALL of us for 8 years.
I’m tired of being a victim. How about you?
@mkraju
Spoiler alert: McConnell is lying. He already said a couple of months ago that he is in favor of a national ban. Now he's afraid of the backlash and is backtracking (lying).
@AnnieGrayerCNN
Are you seriously this credulous, Annie? Any pushback?Since there's been ZERO evidence, how can it be "mounting?" There is plenty of evidence, however, that their allegations are and have always been make-believe. Do your job. Media is so not equipped to meet this moment in time
JFC: I don't understand why this 5-alarm threat/authoritarian wet dream isn't being shouted from the rooftops, let alone getting the attention it deserves.
@SenateGOP
Just no. Lies and gaslighting. That's all you have. You serve your masters and have contempt for working families. Everybody is saying so. Believe me.
@MikeJoPro
Ridin' with Biden. But let's focus on the midterms. If we can't keep the House & expand the Senate, it won't matter who's on the ballot in 2024. They will ensure no Democrat wins an election ever again. This. is. not. a. drill!
DeSantis' new hire, Scott Yenor of Boise State said women with careers are “medicated, meddlesome and quarrelsome" and said society shouldn't think of a girl “as a future worker or a future achiever, and start thinking of them as future wives and mothers.”
Vance showed that having 3 children has done diddly squat to make him care about the future. He repeatedly made it clear that his "pro-family" view is all just rhetoric. In practice, he doesn't care about actual children, either now or in the future.

@MarkHamill
Personally, I think too many people in this country are intimidated by strong women. Ripping up a "manifesto of lies" was entirely appropriate. His lies damaged America's image, not the woman making a statement on said lies.
The lies, disinformation, misinformation, attacks on our democracy, cultish calls for an authoritarian, and utter cruelty—it was all there. This radicalism is not a bug; it is a core feature of today’s GOP.
@valley_kid1
@Acyn
Nah. We see what's happening here. This is about power and control. 15 weeks is early. Third trimester is b/c fetus is unviable or women's life is threatened. If anything, their playing politics with our lives will only fire us up more.
We can no longer call the majority of major news orgs “mainstream.” Their bogus headlines, fear-mongering, and pro-Trump propaganda has wreaked absolute havoc on our society, and I’m sick of it. From now on, we will refer to them as “corporate media.”

Steve, I am a subscriber to The Warning. I relish it. You have been my go-to for assuring me I’m not taking crazy pills. Why on earth are you doing this? This is the exact thing you’ve seemed to warn us against. In the words of our president: Don’t
Trump right now bears hallmarks of Romanian dictator Ceaușescu, who ruled oppressively through coups, until one day, amid another crazy speech on the “fascist” plots against him, people began to jeer and mock and laugh at him & ended his reign of terror

Thank YOU, Adam. You are a true patriot. Thank you for putting country over party and exposing the cowards in your midst. Be happy you're leaving the clown show! Best of luck and happy holidays to you and your family.

@TheRickWilson
LOLOL. You are a walking Breitbart comments section who pays a billionaire for a vanity blue check. Sit down, low rent.
CBS’s decision not to fact check the VP debate is mostly significant as an indication of how powerful institutions will bend to Trump should he win the presidency. Many are bending already, when he has no official power and is behind in the polls.

@MuellerSheWrote
This attitude, Bruce, is the reason too many of us are sleepwalking into fascism. The right lies and lies incessantly. We need to counteract their lies with the truth again and again and again and again.
@oneunderscore__
This obviously goes much deeper since these emails are only around *one* event. I don't trust the SS around President Biden. There's obvs a Trump faction within the agency. I think I read Jack Smith has their "accidentally" deleted emails so hopefully the ones involved go down.
@hugolowell
He's an American hero and will beat MF cancer the way he's beaten back the fascists in our midst. Healing energy and lots of love to Congressman Raskin and his family.
We are numb to the lies because the media has never genuinely reckoned with their corrosive harm and continues to treat Trump’s lies as one half of a rational exchange of ideas instead of the ongoing manipulations of a pernicious sociopath.
@VishBurra
LOL. Vish, you sad little Trump-slurping snowflake. You skipped a few words..."Liberal women are obsessed with [laughing their asses off] at me."

I lost my wallet in a cab in NYC last month. Thanks to 311 in NY, they were able to find out which cab company and the driver sent it back to me Priority Mail -- nothing missing, including $600 in cash. Faith in humanity restored.
These people clearly aren't stupid or cruel, but Fox News has made them fools.

He tried it for John Lewis VRA as well but those two pricks whose names rhyme with Fanchin and Minema keep obstructing Biden and the agenda he was elected on -- and giving a huge middle finger to Americans b/c they want to finance their retirements with GOP donor money.
Thank you for sharing your story with us
@RitchieTorres
. Your bravery and humanity is appreciated and brings hope. We need more people like you in government.
I was once hospitalized because of severe depression. I thought of taking my own life because I felt the world around me had collapsed.
I would not be alive, let alone in Congress, were it not for mental health care.

Mike Flynn argues SCOTUS case for authoritarianism:
“Americans don’t know how to suffer.”
“When we elect a President we give them the full weight of our judgement… we trust, right?”
“All this stuff about the Constitution… it’s really the American people giving this country…”
If you’re being honest about Trump, covering him in light of everything we’ve learned about him over 8 years, you can’t credit him for having “evolved” on Project 2025 or for “flip flopping” on it, b/c he didn’t do either of those things. He’s just lying.

@RealJamesWoods
Of course you do. You're a sucker who pays a billionaire for a vanity blue check and have a "christian" cross in your bio while you celebrate the worst of humanity and pervs like James Woods 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
In Hunter's case, the jurors didn’t fear explaining themselves. They don't have to hide, or fear being doxxed or assaulted. It’s only jurors assigned to Trump cases who can expect to face serious security risks for the foreseeable future.
@RepJeffDuncan
@SpeakerPelosi
I believe you're a weak, classless insurrectionist - which is very on brand for a self-proclaimed "Christian" in the GOP these days. You're not worthy enough to breathe the same air as Nancy Pelosi, little man.
When GOP warns that a proposal will hurt the middle class, take a closer look to see who will *really* be affected. It’s almost always the rich and corporations. The angrier they get, the more likely it is that the bill in question is on the right track.
Unless voters wake up—and Democrats wake them we’re on the verge of permanent, minoritarian, single-party rule, and few seem to realize what that would look like, much less the consequences. Spoiler alert: None of them are good.
@TomCottonAR
Nah. Inflation (which is going down) is temporary. Fascism is forever. Also, since when do you care about low wages, Cotton? You've consistently voted for keeping them low since your unfortunate face showed up in Congress. Sit down.
