No sooner did I post this and the story was released about the Jan 6er arrested for threatening to "eliminate" Jeffries ... But he takes no accountability. Mob bosses never do. Seems like the only two people himself ever listened to fully in his life was Cohn & Peale.

No one has EVER weaponized all 3 branches more than this admin. And when RULES OF LAW are actually applied, he rips them apart & tries to get his most ignorant gun-toting deplorables to "act on it" for him. His choices are so subpar that no self-respecting prosecutor wants any part of it!

The only things bette that would be more delicious: If he were actually investigated for his boy toy's death & his wealth was distributed to the lowest earning hard working Americans.

Google helped me insert movement into an Oracle Card... Kinda awesome.
"You are enough: you are worthy. Ethics are a part of building genuine personal power. Stand strong in front of bullies, and hold your boundaries tenaciously. Be proud of what you have achieved, but humble in your outlook."

NEW: Jim Jordan wants to question Jack Smith about his search of Mar-a-Lago, but Merrick Garland executed that search months before Jack Smith was even appointed. One of several lies in this letter demanding Jack Smith's testimony. judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

Garland was the biggest GOP plant in American history. They made him seem like a victim worth fighting for. All that wasted energy only to discover he slow walked everything that could have prevented the unstable imbecilic felon from getting back into office. #YouCantProveMeWrong

Surprised it wasn't on the Constitution, democracy & Christianity as well, since he's metaphorically been doing that all along.

As despicably deplorable & disgusting as this may be: Don't bury the lede... His likes and reposts of such vile content have been getting lower and lower. #JustSayin'

Stop waiting for a superhero to save us.
WE MUST SAVE EACH OTHER.
There's more of us who care than those who don't.
Even if you despairingly take to your "fainting couch," connect to the divine for the greater good & let it reverberate to the universe.

Clearly he's getting more paranoid & nervous, so this is his warning to current members of his admin not to betray him.

I used to literally run these things - like the NYC No Nukes rally in June 1982 and organizing buses to Washington for peace rallies. My body may have its limitations these days but the spirit is stronger than ever. #CollectiveConsciousness

If only they showed a spine to their "Corporate Overlards" BEFORE IT GOT THIS BAD. But noooo...

Maybe if Peter Alexander hadn't spent the week before the election harping abt a misplaced apostrophe in Biden's phone transcript.

Hacks are hacks. And as a former journalist, I get to make that call.
