I never underestimate them.

A plea to my liberal friends: Don’t underestimate the right-wing lawyers who’ve studied the ins and outs of the Vacancies Act, how to push its limits and exploit its vulnerabilities, and maximize Trump’s power. So Patel and others not getting confirmed will be the beginning of the story not the end.

It’s basically block-a-palooza every few days. 🤷🏻♂️

Donald Trump declared himself
World Dicktater today.
Investors will not tolerate this.
Buckle up, my dears.
Oh wait! He already held that Paul Revere job!
Well, if Trump can nominate Kash Patel for the FBI, he should easily find a spot for the equally sleazy Nunes.
It contains so many loopholes & contradictory rules that using it to install or remove an acting Officer is equally easy. And the recess appointment rules only make the matter even more unclear
We need @gtconway.bsky.social to enlighten us
I have known they have been dangerous since Trump took the reins.
They have said what they will do and it is some scary stuff.

This time it will be dumb and proud of it on steroids'.
does Bill Kristol really think that we're that dense ?
does he think we don't have situational awareness ?
some of us fought for this Nation and its Constitution, does he think we require him as a cheer leader ?
And the midterms will be crucial to ending this billionaire-class coup. Dems will have to work with any anti-maga Rs left.
I took the “don’t need votes/ won’t vote again” soundbites as not caring about what happens after being reelected.
It’s only unavoidable if we let the Dems & any non-maga Rs off the hook.
Or do you want everyone to believe it’s too late already and nothing will be accomplished by holding Congress accountable and getting the midterm elections right?
Which is it? 🤷🏻♂️
However, we have to fight as if there will be.
I ain't giving up.
Yes, it's hard work converting a cult member. It doesn't ALWAYS take an intervention and years of deprogramming. It takes listening, and finding a hot button wedge issue, and planting a seed.

So many arguments over the last years ended either:
I don’t care, its what I believe.
Or
I don’t really care about what you do I just wanna keep more of my $$.
And that’s the depth of their thinking.

The people running the show have more in common with each other than anyone poorer than them
They have one set of laws, and one for those poorer than them
And they'll see those laws imposed on all of us before ever breaking ranks
Destroy America. Yes
Not one of them has refused a Federalist Society speaking gig and the "vacations" that come with them.
We should have had huge senate hearings after Scalia died and we found out who he was associating with.
The DOJ would've been independent, AND Trump would've been prosecuted.
Instead, Garland obeyed Biden.
He wants to destriy this country.

They would have had to ask, and they would have had to pay for it
A peaceful transfer of power to fascists is far more important than fighting for the country.
Bonne chance.
