Donald certainly has a type.

No no. Those trees died of natural causes. /s

Nothing shocks me anymore. Yes, it’s not an easy task but millions of his followers are convinced 2020 was a stolen election and pretty much every voting/election scheme since then has been by Republicans. At this point I say fuck it, if the Orange One gets a recount we should too (pretty sure Georgia was recounted 3 times). If the numbers come out the same we’ll be just as fucked and probably look just as foolish as we did before.

Some contests were won by 100k votes that’s worth a recount to me.

Something something… slaves learned valuable skills…

The net affect will be catastrophic. I’m sure this will go far beyond vaccines. If he has bass ackwards ideas about vaccines he’ll have them about hundreds of other life saving medications and procedures.

“These allegations are invented and would constitute false testimony to Congress,” Gaetz said in response to ABC News’ reporting.

AG Gaetz has his first case all lined up doesn’t he?

The salary is fine but not only is “insider trading” allowed but there’s no divestment or blind trust requirement. Some politicians are “more equal” than others because they’re already millionaires. The whole lawmaker thing is a side-gig.

Is it more than 270 electoral votes worth? No? Then the blue states can have their little tantrum while the GOP laughs all the way back to a majority.

Not hard to see when you’re a powermonger that regularly ignores rules.

“Who’s gonna stop me from doing this? That guy? Let’s replace him. New guy, you gonna stop me? No? We cool then.”

Our repeated mistake is believing a guy that has no history of following rules and norms will suddenly decide to follow them as the most powerful “CEO” on the planet.

That’s a political bomb right there. I mean it either slams the brakes on fascism or the accelerator. And that’s not to say they’ll stop trying to reshape the nation. Our institutions are only as strong as our leadership and right now having a spine is an immediate disqualifier.

There’s many levels of control in NK. Not that it can’t happen here but it’ll take a ton of changes such as:

• Restricted travel
• Clear danger of punishment for speaking ill of leadership
• Extreme xenophobia (we’re getting there for sure)
• Restricted access to information and censorship
• Bombardment of patriotic and nationalist rhetoric

They were waiting for their favorite accounts to move to Bluesky. Switching platforms is super hard you guys! /s

It’s past time to delete X. The platform is just as bad as it was a year ago. People couldn’t be bothered to do the simplest fucking thing until they realize, “Whoops! I was supporting fascism!”

That’s his foreign policy strategy in a nutshell. Help the bigger guy win faster.

Either they ignore the Amendment or they don’t. Even if SCOTUS unanimously said it’s not possible Donald J Trump doesn’t take “No” for an answer. His entire take on being President is, “It’s not illegal if nobody stops you from doing it.”

GOP Senators: Sorry, I won’t get to represent you this term. Thanks for the votes though, and the 6-figure salary and sweet benefits package. Byeeee!

After gutting a dozen departments he might just take the savings and straight up subsidize food staples. Apparently people don’t give two fucks about why just as long as stuff is cheap.

Lenny was insanely effective and didn’t even need AI.
