At minimum, all Democrats should be using every opportunity to make the case for impeaching Trump, because it's a POWERFUL case.
I know savvy Democrats and supporters will point out that it won't succeed right away. So fucking what. You keep fighting on to make the case. What else are you doing??

The mainstream media actual prefers to platform lies over the truth. They get more hits with bullshit, so they pretend it could be true and downplay those who push back on the fantasy.

I'm sorry. I stopped typing and just listened. I'll post summaries as they're published.
But the end was that Judge Young went on to defend judicial independence and to underscore the perilous moment in American history where racial discrimination is tolerated.

Holy shit. Judge Young is furious about this. I hope someone wrote down how his full speech on this. It's extremely powerful.
He's furious at what he sees as racial discrimination.
And he also finds it "appalling" that government would cut research on the health of LGBTQ Americans.

After ruling, with anger in his voice, Judge Young:
"This represents racial discrimination. And discrimination against America's LGBTQ community. That's what this is. I would be blind not to call it out. My duty is to call it out. And I do so."

Absolutely true. Tho we kind of need to find a way to pare back money in campaigns at the expense of this anyway, because when Elon can personally outmatch the *entire* small-dollar donations of his *entire* base for a cycle, you end up with political capture by people with gigantic wallets

2/ For the last five years, MAGA has been bathed in political violence.
Most importantly, MAGA's celebration of January 6th and Trump's decision to pardon ALL the Jan 6 rioters - including the most violent - became a clear endorsement of violence committed in his name.
