Nerd. Dilettante. Daydream believer.
Calling it one "out-of-control federal agency" is a repugnant mischaracterization.

This is not one agency. There is no nuance or fine detail to this.

The Republicans have shut down every part of our government except for domestic terrorism.

This is a coup. Focus on the cause not the effects.

@nytimes.com has repeatedly demonstrated that it's not "America's Newspaper"; it's "Wall Street's newspaper".

And at this point "Wall Street" is a synonym for "People who would—if they could—transform themselves into dragons to hoard over an obscene pile of wealth and ravage the occasional virgin."

Trump is the worst attack on our capital since 1812.

This is truly the "Bottle-Fed Administration".

All the trillions in tariffs we've charged EastAsia, duh.

How many senate seats do "most Americans" have? 20? 30? How many electoral votes?

While our Media landscape lets 45% of Americans believe outright lies, and live in an imaginary hellscape so a greedy hand can pry open their wallets, we are a dead nation.

And even without gerrymandering, intimidation, and electoral fraud, the Party has approval and votes to easily take the electoral college. Congressional apportionment is broken, and an apartheid state is inevitable, where the minority rules the majority by fear.

I see a Party working as hard as it can to ensure America never has another free and fair election, so their single-party totalitarian kleptocracy can rule forever, like their masters in Russia taught them.

That's what I see. Because it's real.

@wyden.senate.gov decided to follow the money and now Portland is under attack by liars and frauds who will destroy America to protect their favorite rich sex criminals.

I figure I'll just wait a couple years for the road-show to come through Portland.

If you can't find a legal way to stop Trump, then Republicans have won. Republicans will kill America to dance on its entrails and loot its corpse.

Whatever you must do to find votes to impeach everyone promoting Civil War, you MUST do it. Or our American dream is dead before its 250th birthday.

...quietly thinking about how they were really talking about slavery this whole time.

I can't wait for the SCOTUS decision that invalidates some common sense plain-language interpretation of the Constitution because of some precedent set in the Late Restoration period which ended up specifically called out in the Declaration of Independence .

Call it by its name. This is a Coup. A Coup to install a King.
