Republicans are lying about the peaceful No Kings Day protests because they’re desperate — the GOP is losing the shutdown fight while Americans reject Trump’s authoritarian takeover in huge numbers.

There will be those who will once again council empty reconciliation with Republicans, on the grounds that “we need to be better than them.”

But here’s the thing: we ARE better than them. Much better than them. Everyone is far far far better than them. That’s why they all need to go to prison.

Everybody who pushed Democrats to be more aggressive after the insurrection was right. Listen to them next time (if there is a next time).

Exactly. I want Democratic leadership that are openly letting us know that if/when the clock turns, there will be Nuremberg Trials for the fascists that have taken control of this country.

Be nice if any single national Democrat promised to hold these fuckwads accountable for malicious prosecution should the wheel ever turn around.

But, whatever. Everybody who opposes Trump will just have to weather this bullshit.

We are witnessing the most lawless behavior by a leader in American history, just daily, extraordinary abuses of power. National Democrats must speak out in a loud and clear voice against Trump's escalating authoritarianism. It is time now.

I'm sorry but it's just wild we are in the middle of a government shutdown and the House Republicans are REFUSING TO SHOW UP FOR WORK so they can protect billionaire pedophiles and billionaire tax breaks.

Fetterman is a fraud and a liar who betrayed his voters and everyone who worked so hard to elect him. I hate that I campaigned for him.

The Atlantic—one of the most prolific corporate media outlets in America—attacked me, my values, & my advocacy. And they got most everything wrong.

Here is my rebuttal. I doubt they’ll issue a retraction, but my receipts are undeniable. Please share and boost.❤️✊🏽
