Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

ICE is the January 6 insurrectionists all over again. Only instead of attacking law enforcement, they are pretending to be law enforcement. And instead of just terrorizing at the Capitol, they are doing it EVERYWHERE.

“Strongman” politicians project their supposed strength by attacking immigrants, people of color, and the LGBTQ+ community. But these groups of people aren't the "threats" we should be worried about. Who is? The oligarchs who earn their keep by exploiting the rest of us.

"What they want is for people to look at who's rich, who’s important & say, 'That’s just the way things are. That’s the way they're supposed to be.' They don’t want people looking back at the past & saying, “This is because of slavery or Jim Crow or because women were excluded from the workforce.'”

Anyone who has worked around a lot of LE, no matter the agency or dept there’s a certain way officers carry themselves. Not to mention dress, none of the videos I see of ICE look like men who have ever been trained. You think details don’t matter, shoes don’t lie, but Trump does.

They’re not behaving as if they’re in a four-year term. They’re behaving as if they’re in an everlasting dictatorship. Are we all clear on this?

I'm sorry, as much as I am enjoying this spat, how can you take seriously someone who spent 100s of millions of dollars electing Trump, then went to work for Trump, left government just days ago praising Trump, and is now calling for Trump's impeachment. Just unserious people.

That any of us have to care about the messy breakup of these two massive narcissists — and that they both individually wield such massive power — is an indictment of our political system and further proves the poisonous influence of Big Money on our democracy.

Really shocked that an admin filled with podcasters, social media influencers, reality TV participants, indicted felons, crypto bros, drunks, Fox hosts, drug addicts, weirdos, and unqualified ass kissing toadies can’t keep their shit together for 24 consecutive hours.

MAGA’s new motto: punish the poor, protect the powerful. Trump and his crew are pushing work requirements for food, housing, and healthcare—while handing out tab breaks to billionaires. If they really cared about “fraud”, they’d start with their own damn tax returns.

Jake Tapper wrote a whole book about Joe Biden forgetting someone's name, yet we still do not have a book about the fact that dozens of people who have been in sustained contact with Donald Trump say that he is borderline illiterate and not just euphemistically

@jamestalarico.bsky.social: "It's reverse Robinhood. It's welfare for the wealthy. And it's a travesty that this [private school voucher] scam has passed into law here in Texas. But we should do everything we can to stop this from happening at the federal level."

If there are only 1.2 million of "illegal aliens" receiving benefits why not just stop their benefits?? Why is it necessary to cut benefits for 12 - 13 million more people??? The GOP is lying and this is just cruelty.

This has always been the GOP's strategy: 1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves. 2) Explode the deficit. 3) Demand cuts to vital programs that help millions. 4) Repeat. They're trying to get away with it again.

The steady stream of gaslighting propaganda, the legislative assaults on vulnerable people, and the clear mental instability of a leader whose sole intention is to seek a new moral bottom—we can't make peace with any of it. No, none of this is normal. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/please-don...
