Robert’s Court has basically overturned the concept of res judicata and precedent. Today, if you’re right wing and the issue really matters to you, try to get it before the Supreme Court to change the law. It’s a juridical paradox. None of these opinions are legitimate: they’re anti-legal.

This is how you cover a Stalinesque show trial? Do you not realize the society Trump wants to make wouldn’t bother to let journalists like you receive one, that you’d be sentenced by a troika? WaPo is now an arm of fascism.

Trump is a dictator fetishist and Putin completely controls him like a pissant. The dirt Putin has on Trump is shown by the Epstein files, which they won’t release after sending 1000 FBI agents to redact Trump’s mentions. The GOP has no moral, political or ethical legitimacy.

Let’s be clear, the GOP is not going to stand in the way of: renditions to torture of legal immigrants (Abrego Garcia); pedophilia, especially if done by Trump; war crimes and extrajudicial killings; ending health care for average Americans; and now the summary execution of political opponents.

The legacy media coverage of Trump on this and everything else poses the same conundrum I have for the rest of the GOP. Trump wants a country where he can order anyone to be killed he doesn’t like, including you. So why are you helping deliver it? Tear him down at every opportunity before he can.

I’m so tired of plastic social media idiots wielding real power. Pam Bondi couldn’t get a legal job in any reputable firm or public office not reliant on the MAGA grift. Of all the damage MAGA has done to this country, near the top is the destruction of expertise to promote influencer mush brains.

Incredible moment of shamelessness. The whole premise of the shutdown is the Republicans refusal to work together, and only support Trump’s dictatorship. They are now quislings.

Trust me, MAGA doesn’t remember. They were hanging Obama effigies like racists, cruising 4chan with a fish’s understanding of confirmation bias, or they were mere boys unable to grow into real men due to channeling their economic and sexual inadequacies into online rage blaming.

There is some strategic reasoning here. If they can legally torture Americans (starvation), they are much more likely to get away with the illegal acts they need to keep power and evade accountability. We need to frame everything around the truth: Trump wants to end elections and rule as a one.

If MAGA voters could read, they would know that Trump has never had actual policy plans to reduce costs, increase wages, grow the economy or do anything helpful. He’s actually never run on anything other than vilification and self-promotion. Can MAGA read the Epstein files? Can they ID pedos?

We would not be in our present fascist crisis without our beloved national media. I remember how augustly the Times covered Trump’s last campaign, like he’d never committed treason or done anything wildly disqualifying. I know the career incentives, but the pundits are basically craven royalists.

When was the last time Trump denounced Putin? Oh, right, never, he lauds him for his plutocratic and homicidal works. And the GOP? Where are these patriotic defenders of democratic peoples? In their homes, plotting the end of free elections. I only comment to The Last Republican.

The Times is reporting that Russia is using drones to kill trauma medics, a flagrant war crime. The Trump administration is fine with this. Ask your former Republican colleagues how they square their faux Christian morality with supporting a president so callow and evil. Not to mention his voters.

I’m sure the Trump DOJ will look into this.. oh, that’s right, they used Russias help to send in bomb threats in the last election. I will live to see these people tried for treason.

While his cabinet silently moves into secure military homes. This is exactly the behavior of a cabal plotting to overthrow a democracy with a small group of loyal generals and a newfound domestic police force full of fascists (ICE).

It’s important we speak openly about the obvious. Trump doesn’t respect elections: he tried to overturn one. Now that he’s in power, he will do everything he can to ensure unfair elections, then try to block results, and if that fails, he hopes the military and ICE will cede him a dictatorship.
