This should offend no one. And any pol who expresses offence at this should be fired on statute.

The number of people who are inoffensively mediocre, or better, at responding to the actual content of a post....is like zero fucking percent. It is a round-to-zero situation that needs more significant digits.

You're being disingenuous at best.

Welp.

If Trump signs an unconstitutional Executive Order to take over voting, we will sue. I don't bluff and I usually win.

Honestly? We need your special forces and intelligence professionals.

It's almost like some Americans didn't vote for this /eyeroll

People around the world keep questioning when we are going to remove Trump. It's a valid question, but they forget: Trump and his people control the entire government and military and our institutional means to remove him are broken. Like Germany under Hitler, we need foreign assistance.

Yes...?

It would require not one but two steps that I think the personnel are unwilling to make.

And so, they will be exactly like those in Nazi Germany. "Then they came for me."

It would require spines by Dems--and the military breaking their oath.

I don't see it happening.

The only way is another revolution. And that requires the military to overthrow the fascists.

Not going to happen.

I don't see how they don't destroy midterms, cancel the elections by force. No one would stop them. No one is capable of stopping them. The only way would be if Dems made a pre-emptive call to our military, to protect the polls if ICE show up with force--with the Dems then leading a coup.

I can neither ignore what I see happening, and what I think is going to happen, nor tolerate it.

Jared Sexton thinks we are basically already fucked election-wise. I'm inclined to agree. We haven't stopped what's already happened--we're not going to stop them from destroying midterms.

Jesus god almighty you’d think people would get tired of spending ten years saying the fascists can’t do this or do that and then watching them do exactly what they claimed they couldn’t.

“This is the exact kind of cycle every authoritarian regime has ever followed, but I’m sure there’s something different about America and this time around.”

Really. Are you fucking listening to yourself? How hard are you coping to not face up to what’s happening and recognizing the need to fight?

Shut It Down It's time to stop participating in this awful system and bring it to its knees

The fascists will not stop and are only going to get more violent. The Democrats have betrayed us.

It’s on us to stop this. We have to carry out a general strike and boycott even if we’re not ready. We have to kill this system before it kills us.

In that case, perhaps I should be prioritizing how we survive this corporeally.

California Democrats. Stop this nonsense. This sheriff should be in jail.

Arrest him.

What Was Actually in the Mueller Report There is an enormous amount of misinformation circulating about former Special Counsel Bob Mueller’s investigation into Russian attempts to influence the 2016 U.S.

7 years ago, we learned about Bob Mueller’s conclusions. Today, there are a lot of posts on social media claiming it was a farce, or worse, a fraud. But those posts are disinformation. Here is the actual information, with links for those who want to do a deep dive.

I spent the day in comtemplation of how we survive this emotionally.

I haven't stopped being angry about any of it and I am consumed by it. Happy?

Donald Trump has called me a "really bad person," a "radical” and an “election stealing lawyer.” I think he is a deranged authoritarian.

Donald Trump is the only President to lift sanctions against a country (Russia) that helped kill American servicemen.
