If history is a guide, they will eventually overplay their hand. Power hungry sociopath gains unchecked power. What could go wrong? That’s all we have to cling to right now, I’m afraid…

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

#MAGA

MAGA types don’t care if Trump and Elon steal “a little” for themselves and their friends. They really don’t. To them, the compelling point is “we’re giving too much shit away and it just has to stop”. That’s how they have won the messaging war.

What’s the over/under on number of days until martial law is declared over a fake threat? I’ll set it at 180. Take the under.

All West Point cadets have received this memo. Almost as if diversity, equity, and inclusion are no longer permitted, let alone encouraged.

Merrick fucking Garland He made a choice to keep the documents case sealed. He’s making a choice now to say nothing about what he knows. He’s been disastrous. Even if you defend his prosecutorial strategy while in office (which was also tragically poor, imo) you can’t defend his silence. So sad

DEI hacks, these assholes fucked music up for decades…

Instinctively blaming DEI for whatever goes wrong is deeply racist. But Donald defends this practice as “common sense” that only he (and his supporters) have. And media nods along and picks silly battles over unimportant things. This truly is fascism, not just tactically, but substantively.

I’m just catching up, but did Trump’s guys really change the words in a public reading of the Lord’s Prayer, so that Trump became the focus of the prayer? Did that really happen?

forget the “bullet ballot” shit YES, it is odd - anomalous maybe - that Trump could win so many states where Rs did not perform well down ballot - but PLEASE do not be a sucker for “easy” explanations. Stick to the evidence, of which there is a lot.

We cannot proclaim there was fraud …as the evidence is a bit flawed… But the look here today? Rich cash out, most folks pay …as the billionaires brag and applaud #corruption

Maintaining credibility is essential, NO doubt. that said, it is VERY credible that hacking may have played a role in the election 7/7 is tough to pull off plus Trump admitted it, with typical swagger, the very day before inauguration plus Coffee County etc etc

Gosh, I’ve heard it so many times, and so forcefully, I’m starting to actually believe it must have really been all Nancy Pelosi’s fault that things got so out of hand on 1/6. She turned away 10,000 cops bc she wanted to make Trump look bad. It’s so clear now, cant believe I didn’t see it until now…

The “Gundo Bros” are “ultra-Christian” tech entrepreneurs (eg, Augustus Doricko & Isaiah Taylor) who’ve set up shop in El Segundo, CA. Some have “benefitted from the largesse” of tech billionaire Marc Andreessen, a Thiel/Musk pal, DOGE advisor & “network state” investor. Doug Wilson ties in too. 1/
