'When Republicans aren't demanding to reach into your children's underwear for genital inspections, or letting the AI child porn machine go unregulated, they're demanding your children die of infectious diseases so they can sell quack supplements and do the will of Big Beef Tallow!'

When Dems call Rs their "colleagues" or ask for bipartisanship, it's as if the cops asked criminals to "help them stop crime" or "let's work together to obey the law." No it doesn't work that way!

Democrats need to understand that they can just say “It’s insane to threaten Greenland” and “I don’t think ICE should murder Americans in the street” and you don’t need to pretend to link it to the affordability crisis.

the only people who dont think we should push for impeachment are the people covering for weak democratic leadership, imo
I struggle to see the downside of impeaching for every single impeachable offense at every opportunity. Impeach him twice a week. We’re worried it would look like a farce? His government is a farce. Demonstrate it.

John Robert’s has no control over the legislative agenda. Quit giving the fucking Democrats a pass. It’s their jobs to defend us and right now a key part of that job is to do what they can to remove Trump.
The reason it’s off the table is that the Roberts’ court has given the orange criminal nearly complete immunity. Maybe go after Roberts and his fascist, uh, I mean Federalist, five.

Symbols actually matter. They make it clear you give a fuck and where you stand. Symbols motivate action which creates change.
They can file articles of impeachment and anything else all they like, they don’t have the votes to move anything. It would be symbolic at best

After following orders to occupy large cities to assist ICE, bombing boats not coming to America and killing innocent people, violating ROE by taking more than one shot on the same boat to kill everyone, to last night’s illegal orders, our military has shown us how seriously they took their oaths.

you can remove the word "parenting" from this and it all still holds
Sam Altman saying he uses Chat GPT as a parenting tool is a dumb as fuck “news” story today, but honestly, you should never take any parenting advice from rich people. Full stop. They don’t look after their kids. They have staff. Precisely zero of their parenting dilemmas resemble normal humans’.

Oxycontin and other opioids have killed tens of thousands of Americans. Yet, oddly, you don't see them drone murdering the Sackler family.
Sen. Roger Marshall defends Hegseth: "Look, we're losing 200 Americans every day to drug poisoning from these drug lords. This is a war. And it's ugly. War is never pretty ... that strike probably saved thousands of American lives."

Very little U.S travel
No rallies or contact with supporters
Right-wing media
Dinners with rich donors and billionaires
