“Why do you want a President who says crazy shit”?

One of our two political parties is actively trying to lead our country into fascism. This is bigger than simple compliance to avoid a primary challenge. “Rule of law”? These fuckers just paid $5 million to the family of an actual insurrectionist.

Or the city and State could be governed by the people they elected, or the voters could elect someone else, or reelect the same people again. Isn't that how it's supposed to work regardless of what some cosplaying dipshit on a power trip thinks?

Send his post to every MAGA relative out there. It completely shreds his claims on immigration, “invasion”, and exposes that Agricultural, Hotel and Construction industries rely on undocumented workers and don’t want an “enforcement-only” policy, even though they voted it.

Agricultural and ranching employers, who are predominantly Trump voters, are opposed to E-Verify mandates, and think "Enforcement-only immigration reform would cripple agriculture production in America." www.fb.org/issue/labor/...

Right wing TV pundit finding out it's a different game being accountable to Congress than feeding red meat talking points to Fox News viewers.

That was a fantastic book and one of the first that really opened my eyes about the media and its role in our country.

All designed to provoke

MAGA has inverted authoritarianism from a government willing to use force to control its people when the government deems necessary, to a government searching for a reason to use force on its people because it’s the aesthetic of authoritarian leadership they crave

What a clown show.

They had the whole weekend to prepare for this interview. They could asked about the “national security threat” of specific people arrested, like Marcelo Gomes da Silva arrested on his way to volleyball practice.

Any outlet interviewing Peter Navarro should always end it with “Thanks Pete, we’ll assume this is as legit as that fake economist you made up in your books.” www.cnbctv18.com/world/who-is...

And last night I hope you had some Tequila. You deserve it. Welcome.

Trump has turned the US government into a pay-to-play, self-enriching mob style shakedown scheme, and the Republican party is complicit. It’s not difficult to understand.
comment in response to post
Is there any evidence he actually paid for it or was it another bribe he’s selling for a profit?

We're being reassured on the country's economic policy by an ex-con who made up a fake source in his book which was an anagram of his own name, then laughed about it when it was revealed. This is failed state level madness.

Besides the cruelty and fascist aspirations, our country is simply in chaos. Oligarchs cutting agencies one month, going to battle with each other the next, tariffs on, off, on again, illegal EO’s, courts overturning them, rulings ignored, IRS heads not showing up…

“…13 per cent of those questioned voted for Trump.” “Back in 2020…27 per cent voted for Trump” www.thepinknews.com/2024/11/08/h...

No but I have MAGA relatives and know what they’re being fed and who’s feeding it.

There's an entire industry Republican political strategists that have become rich disagreeing with you on the existence of "culture wars".
comment in response to post
“Any of this” is not fair. Harris co-sponsored Sanders’ M4A proposal and Biden was pro-public option. People can argue over the strategy of watering down initiatives into PowerPoint mini proposals in hopes that pragmatism equals progress, but they’re on the side of better healthcare for the people.
comment in response to post
2/3 of all Americans favor guaranteed healthcare for everyone and 80% favor stricter gun laws. I know plenty of “centrists” that would gladly trade their $1500/mo insurance premiums for Medicare-for-all.
comment in response to post
She’s just there to bash and blame Biden and throw out culture war snacks to MAGA. That question is way over her head.

It worked for Tucker Carlson: www.npr.org/2020/09/29/9...

They've been playing this supply-side game since 1980, and the media knows it's never played out the way they claim it will. They also know Republicans always cut taxes w/o cutting spending equally to avoid voting to cut cutting programs people like, then plan on blaming Democrats for the deficit.
comment in response to post
They’ll be running their 2026 campaigns on the national debt as a warning against electing Democrats. They cut revenue without matching cuts in services and blame Dems for the resulting debt when they’re in power. Same ole’ story for decades.

Do they need all that armor in San Diego because someone might hit them with a yoga mat?

The irony: “If you’re here illegally, expect to be removed,” said one. “This is the consequence of being in a nation with laws,” said another. One commenter simply wrote “Bye.”

My favorite is the one who voted for Trump bc of the promise of free IVF but “regrets it” bc Musk cut her government job. It’s a self-centered, transactional motive either way. Half of the people in this country have no sense of greater citizenship or national identity.
