They should actually be punished by their commanding officers. And reminded of their oaths.

It would take like three decent Republicans to join Democrats and do the right thing. There aren’t three decent Republicans.

Republicans have ONE and only one principle they NEVER violate: they want a more hierarchical society. Whites over non-Whites. Rich over poor. Men over women. “Christian” over non. They have abandoned every other stated principle of conservatism in favor of this one authoritarian principle.

You know what's even less effective than talking about Medicaid cuts? Talking about people talking about Medicaid cuts. Stop the circular firing squad.

A good example of how religion redirects wealth and energy away from actually helping people (actual moral action).

I refuse to accept that is “we” Americans. Many (most) Americans possess empathy and/or critical thinking skills.

That stuff aside, this is a great and revealing look at the corrosive incentives of X-like creator payment systems. He makes sub-min wage posting conspiracy content for 11 hours a day ... But it's still a living, and enough to convince a generation of others to do the same

We’ve been pointing out his lies for years now. Is there a point at which what he says is soooo far from what people are actually experiencing that even maga realizes he is lying? Is that possible?

Dem fallings are on the list but way down the list. Critique is welcome but please include specific actions you would have Democrats do differently.

Pretty tired of folks beating up on the Democratic Party, our one chance at restoring democracy. The media ecosystem, starting with talk radio, then Fox News, then social media, is by far the greatest reason for our descent to authoritarianism. A close second is the construct of the Senate.

MAGA authoritarianism is about ripping off the blindfold to put the government’s thumb on the scale in favor of rich White men.

This is the essence of freedom versus authoritarianism. The reason “Justice” is depicted wearing a blindfold and holding scales is, in a democracy, the legal system is supposed to weigh the evidence and apply the law without regard to someone’s demographics or political connections….

Add this to the list of ways the Trump regime is undermining national security.

Trump's 90% loss rate in court indicates his overall platform is unconstitutional.
His very mindset is incompatible with the law because it is a threat to the American people.

It would take, what, 3? Republicans to decide law and order matters, join with Democrats to stop this crime spree. There are not 3 Republicans who care about law and order.

To be replaced by an unqualified White male, no doubt.

Oops. We took him at his word again what he is trying to do is take money away from his “enemies” (liberal Americans) and give it to his supporters. #fascism

That Trump thinks he has “friends” is both humorous and sad.

You live in a world where truth matters. They’ve moved beyond that.

And he’s still going to replace Obamacare with “something better”.

So at least 4 Supreme Court justices do not believe in separation of church and state. Got it. I guess that’s what you get from judges who were seated by men who LOST the popular vote.

They feel completely immune. And they’re right to. For 40 years now, they’ve successfully blamed the pain they cause on Democrats and immigrants.

Please please tell me that even Fox News will fact check Trump on this. It’s so idiotic and vile.

I’d settle for an acknowledgement that the media does in fact have a lower standard for Republicans because Republicans have no standards for themselves. Let’s just say that out loud because it’s so obviously true.

I would not be at all surprised if Trump issues a preemptive pardon of every single administration official.

Damn there is going to be a lot of pardons over the next four years. Like, mountains of pardons.
