If anyone understands a liar, it would be YOU. The ease and fluidity at which you lie is unsurpassed.

I guess that's why you're known to be "full of schiff".

Thanks for explaining. What are you doing to stop it?

hjelms.bsky.social•3 days ago

Trump is dismantling the American legal system, piece by piece, until he has removed all legal resistance, in the state and in society. Then it will be easy for him to set up a dictatorship without separation of legislative, executive and judicial powers.

syk1331.bsky.social•3 days ago

Just spoke to a friend whose college professor questioned the "trueness" of what was being reported on the Signal chat lawsuit case and insinuated that biden did it first and that we should all "take a break from the news cycle"? The crazies are still out and proud people!

Why do some democrats still use words like “falsehoods” that no ordinary human being uses? It’s just so bizarre, and we need to elect Democrats to talk like normal people.

Adam, just do us all a favor and convince Schumer to step down. He’s washed up and too soft to be the leader we need.

There is skullduggery here, for sure. I don't know if it's organized or just organic, a function of a severe personality disorder. I mean, Hannibal Lector is one of his heroes. And, lying to your face while threatening to kill you is his personality.

whoiskf.bsky.social•2 days ago

It's already known.

There are those who constantly try to dampen it. As they know dampening it reduces our clarity of fighting against what's happening.

Incidentally, the physics of an exploding hand grenade aren't organized.

But the ones who plan to throw that hand grenade in the building.. are.

THIS ! This is the conversation and the ONLY conversation I want to be hearing from ANY elected official right now. STOP analyzing his actions - we see them, we know what’s happening. STOP acting as if going on news shows and complaining is “resisting.” DO SOMETHING AND TELL US HOW TO HELP.

What action should Adam Schiff and Senate Democrats take? Until the Republicans in the Senate and House are convinced to stand up against #ConvictedFelonTrump nothing is going to change.

dmobrewsky.bsky.social•2 days ago

Not sign poison budgets to start? How about some Filibuster?

Or maybe reach out to known safe contacts in DOD/CIA/FBI to start asking for accountability for the obvious crimes?

dmobrewsky.bsky.social•3 days ago

And tell that coward Chuck Schumer to resign. He's outlived his usefulness and is a functional door mat in the Senate.

Agree with everything you said, but Dems can’t fight him with Schumer as the minority leader. NY can decide if he keeps his seat, he just needs to give up his leadership role. Dem approval is like 27% and I’d put most of that on Schumer. Be brave Senator. Leadership vote time.

Dear Mr. Schiff.
My question for you and the Democratic Party is why no one has drafted articles of impeachment against Donald Trump. As a long time resident of California and now Utah, It sickens me to see how our democracy is being destroyed by a dictator like Trump. Arrest him for Treason….

stephenhasideas.bsky.social•1 day ago

Stop voting for Republicans.

polyculeofone.bsky.social•1 day ago

Also they need to stop BEING FUCKING STUPID.

Gods. This is no time to be this ignorant of US civics. Schiff is a Senator. The Senate doesn't "draft articles of impeachment," the HOUSE DOES.

We are the minority party there TOO so we can't just make it happen even though Rep. Green is TRYING.

Wait you mean Senator Schiff can't just clock out and go to his House and draft articles?

Never committed a violent act in all my life. Trump, 34 felonies, President.. Elon Musk, bribery, 0 convictions. Go figure

trinitywolf777.bsky.social•1 day ago

I’ll amend my earlier post by adding these two questions,1. Why has’t Elon Musk been arrested for tampering with the Wisconsin election? 2. He isn’t an elected official so what the hell is he doing making decisions in Washington about Government programs and entities?

Perhaps the worst thing about Trump is he models behavior. As a boy I looked up to Eisenhower and then Kennedy. The Republican Party nominates a felon. And the American people, overwhelmingly, asks Trump to defend a Constitution he stood against on January 6th.
