The Constitution doesn’t protect you anymore. ICE does. If they decide you’re deported, you’re deported. If they decide you don’t exist, you don’t. This is what dictatorship looks like—citizenship by permission of the gun.

Trump: "If you [end] mail in voting, you're not gonna have many Democrats get elected. That's bigger than anything having to do with redistricting. And the Republicans have to get smart."

He's trying to get rid of mail-in votes and voting machines.

But sure, the 2024 election was fully legit.

Gavin Newsom: “Eight of the top ten murder states in this country — red states. What bullshit. Everyone knows it. It’s acts of authoritarianism. It’s acts of power. It’s weak and it’s increasingly desperate. It’s important that we meet him head on with substantive counteractions”

Remember when a President was impeached for having consensual sex and it was on the News for years..

Now it’s OK for a rapist to occupy the White House and the media are silent

“People like Stephen Colbert are too talented, and too essential, to go away,” Conan O’Brien said. “It’s not going to happen. He’s not going anywhere. Stephen is going to evolve and shine brighter than ever in a new format that he controls completely.”

Conan O’Brien Says Late-Night TV Is Doomed

O’Brien says the format is dying, but voices like Stephen Colbert will find new life elsewhere.

two things are true:

1. making it so you have to crawl over broken glass to vote may backfire for the side whose voting coalition is now low info, because it’s the other side that’s actually willing to crawl over broken glass

2. nobody should have to crawl over broken glass to vote

Brown: In a state of 12 million people, half a million are going to lose their insurance.

People didn’t vote for that. They didn’t vote for higher grocery bills. They didn’t vote for veterans’ benefits being slashed. They didn’t vote for any of this.

What happened yesterday at the WH was an INTERVENTION,

but TACO and his minions are too stupid to understand that.

They think the global leaders came here to cheer and listen to that asshole.

They came her to CONTAIN him.
