Why would people trust their country with a person they can’t trust their children with?
Gotta say, as a survivor, I’m not super loving this thing where the Department of Justice is running a cover-up of evidence the President sexually abused minors.

Wishing all who celebrate in #MI13 a Happy Hanukkah. At a time of increased antisemitism across the globe, like the heartbreaking attack in Australia, we must do everything we can to create a world we can all practice our religion freely and without fear.

Did they leave this bit out of The Trump bible?

Trump’s drug war is targeting the working class drug dealers while helping the super rich drug kingpins continue to buy more mansions on the backs of addicted Americans.
Even in the context of a drug cartel, President Trump fawns over the elites and screws the working man.
New in PN: Trump follows through on an especially ugly campaign promise

"For years, Donald Trump has fantasized about lawlessly killing 'drug dealers.' Now he's making that happen even as he pardons actual drug kingpins."

Similar dynamic with Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Clearly unjust and cruel, and focusing on his case made the public more concerned about ICE and mass deportation, not less.
I follow the Caribbean boat strike issue closely, and haven't seen anyone hear about the double tap strike become OK with the others.

Focusing on a single incident makes it resonate with the public more. It doesn't somehow justify the other killings, it illustrates the larger problem.

The right is good at this, sometimes in bad faith. For example, Laken Riley.

Basically "one death is a tragedy, a million deaths is a statistic."
Once the debate centers on whether the 2nd strike was legal, the first 21 strikes have been accepted as baseline. But the murder of the two survivors doesn’t make the other 21 any more legal. Selective outrage, not silence, is how authoritarianism becomes normalized @tadstoermer.bsky.social

People who think voting does not matter may not even know that the Republican far right Supreme court and Congress are working for extremist billionaires and ignoring the constitution. They do not care about the price of eggs!

I'd also note they already invalidated Section 3 that says that you can't hold federal office if you engaged in insurrection against the United States. These are not judges impartially applying the law. They are racist despots who despise American progress. (3/3)

It takes SIX YEARS for an undocumented person to get a deportation hearing! The immigration courts are horribly backed up. Biden’s BORDER BILL that Republicans rejected cut that time to THREE MONTHS!
Trump took billions from deportation courts to build his useless fence.

Our country is led by a murdering wannabe dictator and Speaker Johnson is sticking with him. Johnson also stuck with Judge Pressler, the SBC strategist who tricked Christians into voting Republican thru anti-gay, anti-feminism and anti-abortion messaging.
GOP Rep. Mike Turner: "This activity that's happening in the Caribbean where they are hitting these boats -- these individuals if they were captured and tried and convicted, they would be guilty of criminal activity for which they're not subject to capital punishment. These people are being killed."
