It was in RESPONSE to Trump calling Zelensky a dictator.

Just like the people laying on their deathbeds still refusing to believe they had covid.

The Ukraine isn't the United States. They don't have elections when there's martial law. That's just the way their government is set up. It's not for some nefarious reason.

Yes, please study this--FOX in the US regularly commits "lies of omission," leaving its large audience ignorant of much that happens in the US and internationally. They have made their audience afraid to use any other news source, claiming all others are "radical" and untrustworthy.

I have a good family. Unfortunately everyone inherited their political party like a sports team & refuse to vote any other way. In addition they all watch Fox. For years. They're mostly college educated, intelligent. And fully indoctrinated. No rational argument, no articles, nothing sways them.

The Danes are also making an offer for California. They said they're offering 5 weeks paid vacation 😁

"You can go ahead and sit down thank you"... Forgive me but I'm having trouble thinking that's anything but condescending to the woman who was speaking. Am I off base?

Hostage interview? They prevented the raving mob from hanging anyone or taking any hostages. Thank goodness right! Can't imagine what they wouldve done to hostages. Now I think they did interview some of the convicted criminals that were part of the insurrection. Is THAT what you're referring to?

I agree. Do the job or step aside. There are many Democrats in Congress who get threatened all the time by MAGA and yet they still are out there speaking their minds

Oh I absolutely agree w you there. More precisely I meant what can be done to make sure EM doesn't fool with our future elections...
Trump: "He knows those computers better than anybody. All those computers. Those vote-counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide."

How long until Trump says it costs too much to support Alaska and we should give it back to Putin

I watched FOX today. Their viewers don't know what is happening. They are living in a totally different world. Where Dems are fighting to keep the gov waste. They don't know 75% of what is going on. If we don't start putting $ towards ad time during & after every show they never will. Bombard them.

This isn't "1984." This is ANIMAL FARM. Trump & his lackeys are the pigs. "Napoleon is always right." We are watching in real time as the pigs take the apples and milk for themselves, as they tell the other suffering, overworked animals that things are "getting better." Remember how that ended.

Came here to say that. Once nonpartisan generals are gone (if there aren't enough to replace them I have no doubt they will promote people regardless of qualifications) and replaced with Trump loyalists, there will be no pushback, there will be no brakes

Will Elon control every election from here on in? The idea is terrifying. Seriously. What can be done?

They have told people they are terrified for themselves and their families if they dare go against Trump's wishes. Not just that they will lose their job (not many want to lose perks they have), but they are afraid of violence and threats from MAGA.

Devoured those books. I was so upset when I finished the series. I then moved on to C.S. Forrester--Horatio H. isn't bad, but nothing compares to Aubrey/Maturin ⚓

Democrats need to get some of their richer members & pay for ad time round the clock on Fox during & after every show. That's where you reach MAGA. That's where u reach the older GOP voters. Do public service announcements correcting whatever lies Fox told the day before. Do this for the next 4 yrs

That's another reason they want the tax cuts. They're the ones who stand to benefit.

Here is the scary problem. The judicial branch doesn't have anyone to actually enforce its rulings. Our system isn't set up for an entire branch that breaks the law. Trump's Administration is testing this by saying, "Yeah? Court order? So what. What are you going to do about it?"

It tells me I've reached my limit. So I guess it's better to destroy them than to give people extra 🙄
