This this this.

Sigh. We tried to warn them.

Listen up.

It’s time people understood that the GOP, the Right, and the wealth class not only believe climate change is real but that the agendas they’re pushing are designed explicitly to profit off the resulting destruction and take advantage of its destabilizing and radicalizing effects.

Yep.

Jimmy Carter, a visionary on ending fossil fuels, put solar panels on the White House. Big Oil-backed Ronald Reagan ousted Carter in 1980 and ripped them out Tonight, as Carter lies in in state in the Capitol, a climate-fueled wildfire is destroying Reagan's former hometown of Pacific Palisades

Let’s see - I’m being sentenced for 34 felonies on Friday, I’ve nominated a bunch of unschooled idiots for my cabinet, and I owe E Jean $483 million. What can I distract the idiots with?

"His biggest disappointment, Biden said, was his failure to effectively counter misinformation, including that from Trump. He said that challenge reflects the revolution in how Americans get their news, and whom they trust to tell it." www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

Outrageous! This needs to blow up. They want to throw out 60,000 votes and steal the state Supreme Court election in NC!

Harry Truman was born in 1884.

LA fires are a good reminder that the only difference between me and any refugee is luck.

Pete Hegseth, nominee for Sec Def: - zero experience - his own mother will not endorse him - not a single reputable member of the military has come forward to support his nomination - has a history of sexual assault, financial mismanagement and being drunk on the job You're all caught up.

I LOVE the fact that President Biden pardoned his son, Hunter. And I love that it triggers MAGA heavily, too.

Vivek is literally an unelected federal bureaucrat.

I’m happy for the Biden family. This has been a long and undeserved nightmare. May they find peace these holidays.

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1k/month. A year later, nearly half had housing. They also had fewer ER visits, nights spent in a hospital, and jail stays. The report estimates that this reduction in public service use SAVED the city $589k. www.businessinsider.com/denver-basic...

So let me get this straight. If you apply for a job at a grocery store, you have to undergo a background check. But, if you apply to be Director of National Intelligence, you don't? Got it.

Isn’t it funny how the U.S. media is suddenly posting stories about the improving inflation picture now that the election is over? 🧐

There are no unexpected consequences in Movement Conservatism. If you are suffering under Republican policies, you are meant to suffer, because Movement Conservatism believes you deserve to suffer. qed.

Are 100,000 Americans dead because of Donald Trump's COVID Lies?

It’s not a Russian spy ring. It’s a Justice Department graphic showing Venmo payments to girls by Gaetz and Greenberg.

EXACTLY THIS 📢 “How do democracies die? They die slowly because the masses aren’t paying attention… until, when they notice, it’s too late.” “What is the first rule of not allowing authoritarianism? Do not obey in advance… do not acquiesce.” @tarasetmayer.bsky.social

A 3-year-old girl is dead after police say she shot herself in Fern Creek, Kentucky today. When police arrived on the scene, they found the girl with a self-inflicted gunshot wound. She was taken to a children's hospital where she died. Lock the parents up!

If Gaetz had been investigated for antisemitism (e.g.), the GOP would’ve released the ethics report and he’d be toast. But because the issue is women’s safety and rights—the GOP is protecting him. The GOP has become rotten to the core political party that enables and protects sexual predators.

We know this because we lived this with Trump for the last eight years. Keeping focus is difficult. We're going to need to get better at this.

FOX NEWS: Suckers aren't born, they're made. Let us show you how.

FASCISM DEFINED Before: If I don't win, it's rigged. America is garbage. After: I won, perfect elections. America is gold.

"Benito Mussolini created the word 'Fascist'. He defined it as 'The merging of the state and the corporation.' He also said a more accurate word would be 'corporatism.' This was Webster's definition until 1987 when a corp bought Webster's and changed it to exclude any mention of corporations."

INSTANT BUYER'S REMORSE: #1 Google search 11/6/24: "Are Tariffs Bad?"

BREAKING: John Bolton, who served in every Republican WH administration since Reagan, says today is not a good day and calls Trump picking Matt Gaetz as Attorney General the "worst cabinet pick in American history." Whoa.

*Now* we know why Gaetz resigned from Congress.

The rw-propaganda-industrial-complex has been brainf*cking suicidal hatred of environmental protections into the electorate for a generation. Up to now, every election was the 'most important of our lifetime', because they only had to win once to enact their nightmare wrecking-ball agenda.Theywon.

I never thought I'd be a John Thune fan. This is what 50 years of losing the messaging wars feels like.
