We did not consent to joining the Leviathan.

“Sovereign is he who decides on the exception.”

Van Hollen: "They really think the American people are stupid. I mean, we can all see the video. We saw the video with Renee Good. We saw the video with Alex Pretti. The real domestic terrorists are in the White House right now."

I have a gas mask because I got tear gassed multiple times as a totally nonviolent observer and thought “not next time.” When you launch billowing clouds of tear gas in my city EVERY SINGLE DAY it’s not really rocket science.
Bondi: "It's extremely organized. The signs they have are all matching, they're well written. And look at what's happening today. How did these people go out & get gas masks? These protesters. Would you know how to walk out on the street and buy a gas mask? Think about that. We're not gonna have it"

This guy went to work today, put a mask on, kidnapped a 5 year old child, and then used him as bait so both he and his father could be sent behind bars

Trump: "MN is a very corrupt place & the elections are totally corrupt. I feel I won it all 3 times. Nobody has won it since Richard Nixon. It's a rigged state. The Somalians vote as one group even if they're not citizens. They all ought to get the hell out of here. They're bad for our country"

This appeals to the base instincts of a large segment of the population, even though it’s mendacious and illegal. Why???

We do know who killed JFK. The Warren Commission was an incredibly thorough and good-faith effort to prove and document what had happened, which they did. The conspiracy theories arose in spite of best efforts to avoid them, but there really isn't anything they could have reasonably done better.
My first political memory - exactly 62 years ago right now, a 4-year-old boy trying to understand his mom's tears - is still the biggest event in my lifetime. We still (IMO) don't *really* know who killed JFK, but we know the public's trust was shattered. It's a straight line to today's mess

you could fact check this — there aren’t 30 million illegal immigrants and there is no evidence that the presence of an immigrant in say houston has any impact on housing in madison, wisconsin — or you could note straightforwardly that this is just nazi rhetoric
JD Vance: "A lot of young people are saying housing is way too expensive. Why is that? Because we flooded the country with 30 million illegal immigrants who were taking houses that ought by right go to American citizens."

Delusion to an extreme level
Q: A lot of Rs, including the Lt Gov, ran on keeping the good times going. Given the Lt Gov lost by 15, Rs are on track to lose more than a dozen House seats, is it possible Virginians don't see your admin the same way you do?

YOUNGKIN: I believe Virginians thoroughly support what we've been doing
