The MAGA 'plan' seems to be: "If you're sick, just die. We don't want to pay for your problems."
This is deja vu all over again:
EUGENICS is the MAGA / NAZI theory JUSTIFYING killing the sick.
Read that again.

A malignant narcissist will always lie, will say/promise anything to get what they want, or to stay out of jail, profiteer and get revenge. With a MAGA base that has an average literacy of 6th grade level, it’s easy to fool them. Then there’s the true fascists that voted for him.

MAGA supports child marriage. MAGA wants a marital rape exception. MAGA wants the vote taken away from women. MAGA wants a woman's body to be declared a state regulated incubator from the instant of conception. MAGA cares about white male power, not about girls being raped.

What's ironic is that Trump himself campaigned on 'releasing the Epstein files'
-- projection much?

Jay Resists 💙💙💙 @trinity-base.bsky.social · 4h

And you think Trump’s supporters will dump him when they find out via the Epstein files that he's a pedophile?
Don't hold your breath.

Remember in Trump's 1st term when Judge asked his lawyers "would it be legal if a President ordered Seal Team 6 to kill a political rival?"
That was back when it was just hypothetical.
And now it's about to become reality.
When SCOTUS granted immunity to POTUS, they fucked up BIGLY.

Most of Dem Senators did not attack Bondi yesterday as they should have. Among other things they should have said, "You're lying again, Ms. Bondi" and "That's a bald-faced lie, Ms. Bondi."

The rapid rise of authoritarianism is no place for etiquette.

Just in case everyone was wondering how Bezos, Zucky,Thiel, Ellison, Trump and all the rest of the oligarchy are doing?
They're flying their private planes, eating caviar with ass kissing sycophants and LAUGHING at how easy this whole fascist takeover has been (so far).

My vote for the MOST feckless ass kisser in the Dump Regime is Mike Johnson.
NEVER FORGET that he shut down the government and REFUSED to swear in a new Democratic Congresswoman TO PROTECT A PEDOPHILE.

One of the (many) legal gaps that needs to be filled after this nightmare is over is to prohibit federal law enforcement agencies from using federal funds to create propaganda videos with anyone in custody. This is all about spectacle and content creation, remove the incentive and the means

Johnson appears to be in a 'race to the bottom' contest with Bondi to see who is the shittiest liar.
Right now it's a tie.

NN: Dems say you won't swear in Grijalva bc you don't want her vote on Epstein

JOHNSON: No. It's scheduling

NN: But there have been Rs sworn in during pro forma sessions

MJ: Only reason was bc they flew in their family

NN: So if she flies in her family you'd do it?

MJ: Again, it's a distraction
