We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

There is nothing sweeter than debunking MAGA talking points with MAGA personalities doing the debunking.

The backlash to all this is going to be severe.

The #MAGA coalition is starting to doubt themselves -- exploit that.

The right wing is questioning #Trump on:

The Epstein files
The Charlie Kirk murder
The govt. shutdown (ACA subsidies expiring)
Farm bankruptcies and a bailout to Argentina
Israel aid
A new Qatari Air Force base in the US

A lot of people refer to the Speaker of the House as:

#MAGAMikeJohnson

That’s ok I guess, but I think this one is better:

#GrindrMikeJohnson

It’s more fitting.

Mike "Grindr" Johnson knows this. He can't keep the House on recess forever

"...So, this is a red herring from Republicans colleagues..."

Could we just call them a bunch of liars?

I've never heard the words "democrat(ic) colleagues" come out of a Republicans mouth.

Democrats suck at messaging compared to Republicans.

Cracker Barrel changes their logo and it's all over the news for a couple of weeks.

Somebody burns the house down of a Judge Stephen Miller calls out to be stopped and *THAT* barely makes a ripple in the newscycle.

"Liberal media" my ass.

It is called a "soft secession". Democrats from blue states are looking into this.

Imagine if these giver states stop contributing to the Fed govt. and states like Arkansas and Mississippi have to fend for themselves for once.

You know it's bad when I read your post and I don't know if it's about:
The economy
Human rights
Climate Change
Immigration Policy
willingness to break trade deals
killing civilians

There is so much to choose from

Trey Reed AUTOPSY #ColinKeapernick more evidence pointed to an argument Tray had online with serval white boys following the dead of Charlie Kirk the white supremacist YouTuber. Trey was defending a black woman for claims she made about Kirk ????

They're lynching black men again...

If someone would have written a movie script 15 years ago where the US gets invaded and 35% of the public openly supported it, that script would have been laughed out of movie studios.

Today, they wouldn't touch that script for fear of government reprisals.

None of them are laughing.
