The upsetting side of this is that it means MTG actually believes in things beyond her own self enrichment, which is a good quality, and means I have to begrudgingly give her a modicum of respect for it because it makes her vastly more human than most of the rest of the ghouls in the GOP/MAGA
The only thing I don’t like about it is that Paul Rueben’s doesn’t deserve the association
He’s a more problematic drinker than me, how is he still kicking
At this point I don’t even think this would cause anything to be done. Whatever is in those files is either so demented and off the wall that their release would guarantee a violent uprising or is deeply personally embarrassing to Trump and would destroy his brand and image.
I can’t even begin to think of what the former could possibly be considering what Americans are already letting happen without rioting. But the latter, a credible video of him being ass and mouth fucked or otherwise dominated by other men or even worse ,a woman, might actually shake his base off of him. And it would annihilate his tough guy man’s man gimmick
What’s wild is that growing up I was told this is exactly what democrats do and why they want to raise taxes. I don’t have much good to say about the DNC but I’ve never seen corruption as blatant as this before from any politician on the national level in this country.
As many as the corps are willing to pay for until we rebuild the system to prevent them from being able to, or just destroy them outright
Accountants shouldn’t be allowed to make decisions beyond their personal lives. MBAs even more so
Seriously this, it would take something like the PCI or SOX declaring Windows outside of compliance for Microsoft to die from bad business decisions in the US. Although German gov switching to Linux starts treading a path through
By “video on the internet”, you meant a classic episode of Futurama
So I went to the first no kings and several of the other big “protests” that are really just big rally’s with police sanctioned marches, I don’t criticize those attending even though I was and am less than enthused by how anti disruptive and status quo the organizers insist on being. I’m not going to the big one in my state tomorrow because it feels like a trap this time. Just got a bad feeling
Easier to design propaganda when you understand what the people you want to propagandize think
It’s been my worry for the past few weeks, tensions are so high and the administration is itching for the excuse to become even more heavy handed and draconian. I’m of the opinion this(not this moment but the full situation we find ourselves in) is all gonna end in massive violence one way or the other but I worry about this protest specifically because of how it’s been organized.
Requiring full and and email to RSVP to it? And how they’ve been working alongside the cops to make sure it’s just a demonstration and not a proper disruption. To me that screams bad opsec at minimum and if just one of the protests gets violent the fascists will get that list and use it as an excuse to round folks up and scare the shit out of others who want to stand against them.
I don’t want to tell people not to go, I went to pretty much every associated protest all summer in my area. But everyone should be extremely careful, don’t RSVP just show up, be wary of any bridges, and most importantly DONT BRING YOUR FUCKING PHONE
I’ve said this a few time on here, but I’m originally from spitting distance from her district, and based on my experience with so many other folks just like her; protecting children, specifically from conspiratorial trafficking and SA, is her number 1 priority, she’s usually really fucking bad at identifying ways to productively do so because she’s very poorly educated and indoctrinated, but if she has 100% confirmation Trump raped a child, which isn’t unlikely, she would almost certainly turn on him like it seems she has.
It’s very telling that the account you and I were arguing with hasn’t said shit in 5 days ain’t it.
Luckily it won’t just be China! WW3 on deck!
It’s definitely a major component of it
I think that if there are historians left to analyze this in 30 years they’ll probably drop the start line around the assassination of Charlie Kirk. There definitely are multiple different factions even within the conservative movement they haven’t completely turned on one another, the left is similarly at odds with itself.
When we see the White House calling on generals to be prepared to invade American cities with the military, judge’s houses are being burned down after giving verdicts disliked for political inconvenience, Chicago, Portland, LA, DC are all seeing extreme escalations in state sanctioned violence, states sending their national guard to other states to quell chaos that isn’t there, and mass shootings nearly everyday, sometimes several. To me that’s civil war that’s started heating up.
But if you’d rather call what were currently seeing and experiencing something like The Troubles in Ireland and wait until the conflict is even more overt feel free.
Which is why all the factions are trying to get their agenda advanced as quickly as possible before he croaks. The techno-feudalist side had the advantage with their boy JD poised to take over but removing him is much more politcally viable for the Christian nationalists in congress
Massive we’ll do better this time? Who am I kidding, somebody warm up the freedom fries
