Trump missing in action only part of the story. The real danger is what happens if MAGA turns him into a messiah who dies a martyr.

I’m past "agreeing to disagree" or pretending #MAGA talking points aren’t lies and hateful propaganda. #Trump deploying Marines in a US city is illegal, morally indefensible, and dangerous. Anyone okay with this is enabling the destruction of our #democracy. #LosAngelesProtests
After the attack on Shapiro’s residence, I feel like it’s important to remind people how easy it is for people to become irrevocably radicalized online.
Right wing media (both “new” and legacy) is using the same tactics we see groups like Al-Qaeda use to recruit.
The only way this could have been worse is if Pete #Hegseth had tried to add Jeffrey Epstein to the #Signal chat instead of @JeffreyGoldberg. #SignalGate #SignalPete
Everything got so stupid so quickly.
🚨 #Democrats, we need to stop shooting ourselves in the foot. Not every strategy is for you, and that’s fine.
🔬 Democracy is an experiment. Let people try what works for them. New ideas, new energy—that’s how movements grow.
🔥 More action. Less purity tests. Let’s get to work.
Thank god the server didn’t belong to @hillarycliterton.bsky.social or we’d have a real crisis on our hands… 🤬😡🤬
Whoa - legislation that is mathematically impossible to pass and would be vetoed in a grand ceremony by Trump and Musk. Maybe if that doesn’t work you can write a strongly worded letter, or maybe even a scathing press release?
For fucks sake. How can Democratic leadership be so oblivious?

But yeah, keep believing that these people care whether you have heat, healthcare, or groceries. Unless you're a billionaire, your red hat will not protect you from the "finding out" portion of the festivities.
Don't worry, I'm sure Pennsylvania's new Consumer Advocate will stand up for us. You know, the guy who Attorney General Dave Sunday just appointed after forcing out the guy with a stellar record of fighting utility company rate hikes? Interesting timing, huh?
I'm SO confused about this email I just received. I thought energy prices, specifically natural gas prices, were going to be lower under Donald Trump. So why are we looking at a 10.8% monthly increase?
Republicans are showing real leadership here. They know these kids with cancer just need to stop being lazy and pull themselves up by their bootstraps to find their own cure instead of waiting for a government handout.
Plus they get to own the libs (or at least the ones who have kids with cancer).
All I want for Christmas is the ability to do crossovers without breaking every bone in my body. 🏒 #hockey
BREAKING: NONE OF YOUR CLICKBAIT POSTS ARE ACTUALLY BREAKING NEWS.
STOP. OVERUSING. THE. WORD. “BREAKING.”
YOU. HAVE. NO. IDEA. WHAT. IT. MEANS.
Ugh. Why are you so clickbaity?
Stop labeling everything as “breaking”. That’s how I know the difference between real news and engagement-farming clickbait. Do better.
They really should have just called the op/ed "They F*cked Around and Found Out"
And for those who are stuck on Joe Biden saying he wouldn't pardon his son and then doing it anyhow, wake up and stop pretending Democrats should follow some higher standard all the time. The voters defined the standard by re-electing Trump. Instead of whining about the rules, just go win the game.
Also, watching all of these self-righteous Democratic elected officials condemn Biden to make themselves look good is just gross. Nobody is asking for your opinion on this, and you’re proving the point of why Democrats are rudderless. Just stop.
This is the kind of thinking that costs Democrats elections. You can’t win an argument with someone willing to overlook Trump’s criminality; their mind is already made up. Maybe try showing voters how you are going to make their lives better than the other guy instead?
These. Are. Not. Ordinary. Times. Given everything Trump has said about political retribution, coupled with the group of muppets he is appointing to run the government, pardoning his son was the only real option Joe Biden had given the circumstances.
Trump is also a convicted felon, and not enough people cared to prevent him from winning the election. Seems like Democrats are upset about giving the other side a “whataboutism” argument to counter Trump’s actions, which is just pathetic.
Anyone whose takeaway of the #HunterBiden pardon is that it will create a political problem for #Democrats is showing their ignorance of our political climate. If you think this pardon will in any way influence future elections, you don’t understand where we are politically.
Kidding aside, I had a blast. The kids who recruited me to play were polite, respectful, and genuinely enjoyable to be around. One thing I love about hockey culture is how most players carry themselves the right way; it’s an underrated benefit of the game. 🏒
Came down to stick and puck get in some much-needed work on my skating and stick handling, and got roped into a 2 vs 2 game with three kids whose combined ages were only 6 years older than me. So if anyone needs me, I’ll be the 46 years-old guy collapsed in the corner. 🏒😂

Hi, I’m God.
