"If you're looking for a Democrat who is going to fight Donald Trump and stand up for the Democratic Party, and from the fight wing of the Democratic Party, which I'm proudly from, you've gotta support this guy, George Conway."

@marcelias.bsky.social, the great Democratic legal fighter for democracy, on me:
"We need more people like this guy in Congress…This guy's a fighter. And he's not just saying he's a fighter, he's got the receipts, because he has gone toe-to-toe with Donald Trump and the Republicans for years now...
Washington Examiner: Imagine it was someone other than President Donald Trump. Suppose a different leader were posting deranged rants in the small hours, insulting the spiritual leader of 1.3 billion Catholics, threatening entire civilizations with annihilation, and comparing himself to God. What would be the reaction?

In our discussion, @gtconway.bsky.social envisions two steps: Accountability for Trump and top officials first, then reforms to prevent future fascism second. It all amounts to a pretty good accountability agenda for the post-Trump era.
Here's the key exchange:

This is also good stuff from @gtconway.bsky.social: He says only one of the major parties is functioning as an actor in a democracy, and that this is unsustainable.
"We can’t survive another 33 months of what we’ve seen for the last 15," he tells me.

Election Day is today #Virginia. A #vote yes on redistricting means we’re one step closer to electing a pro-democracy majority in the House that will actually hold Trump accountable for his corruption.

The Save Act died in the Senate, again yesterday, but with tRump’s Epstein war, most people didn’t notice.
In some South states, less than 30% of citizens have a passport, and most married women nationwide don’t have a birth certificate matching their current legal name.

I noted yesterday that we would do well to describe what role the actions Trump is performing, rather than assuming he is functioning as President.
Mostly, Trump is an old man retreating into his lifelong hobbies: construction, cons, and corruption. With lots of golf.
"We didn't start this fight, but I'm saying to Virginia, we need to finish it." Quote from VA Del. Delores McQuinn
Virginians: Today's the last day to vote on an important redistricting measure.
I hope you'll vote YES—for Virginia, and for the entire country.
You have a chance to help level the playing field as Republicans seek an unfair advantage in Congress. Please take it. Get more info: IWillVote.com/VA

Trump on refunding proceeds from his illegal tariffs: "We're giving a lot of that money back to people that hate our country, so I'm not happy with the Supreme Court"

Good Netanyahu is a war criminal
ICYMI — new HUNGARY 🇭🇺 PM Magyar says Netanyahu will be arrested if he goes to Hungary
There has never been a more corrupt administration in our nation’s history and the most corrupt are ALWAYS REPUBLICANS. Trump, followed by Nixon. #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy www.bbc.com/news/article...
This 👇 is a worthwhile read —what's really happening here is much more than a drinking scandal.

I pronounce the argument that Americans need guns to protect us from a tyrannical government officially dead. Kaput. We're living under a tyrannical government and the only people suffering from gun violence are innocent children and civilians. No one's using them against this government.
WAR for profit....

Like father, like son.
Like father-in-law, like son-in-law.

Kushner is owned by the Saudis for $2B & being Investigated By The House Judiciary/Oversight & the Senate Finance Committees
EVERYTHING WITH HIM IS AN INTERNATIONAL CRIME.
SA MBS,Putin & Netanyahu, are his handlers
He is an International Criminal,Future Prison Inmate. He will pay for his crimes.
The media’s failure to cover Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner’s ongoing conflicts of interest as he gets billions from the Middle East while being Trump’s negotiator is insane.
(Especially after what they did with Hunter Biden)

Wonder what the president will make worse today.
