Remember when they said Obama was absolutely going to do exactly this? I do, and they were frothing at the mouth at the idea.
The only thing dumber than voting republican is not voting at all.

Every accusation is a confession
Very very very much this
They want us to stop talking about the Epstein files. And, it's working.
Now we're talking about the Texas Dems fleeing Texas, and this, and withholding disaster funding.
By mid-terms the Epstein files will be a distant memory, there will be more disasters to fret over.
This is why they lined their ducks up in a row with project 2025. They wanted to ram through as much as possible as quickly as they could. That way, no one issue or scandal will get enough response from sane people.
This is a real and truthful fascist movement. If they get the right things in place, they'll just start ignoring the constitution.
What election? I'm the president, have been for some time now...
Release the Epstein files!
Until we riot nothing will change
And we won't riot because we can't unify
And we can't unify because every fucking digital platform now marginalizes progressive voices
Can't wait to see the dozens of you come by to tell me why I am wrong.
you're right. that's probably why you ended up here. I don't know if any meaningful unity can be achieved between now and then but briefly be at peace. take my energy ✊
the report itself without msnbc enshittification
Thank you!
Can we stop calling shit like this, "unprecedented", and start calling it what it really is..."illegal"?
Treasonous
Nope, rich old white men control the media, so the headlines will always sanewash cheetolini
The US hasn’t been a country anyone should treat as a serious entity since 2024-11-05, and won’t be again until they can prove their ability to hold another legitimate election.
Right now it’s a coin flip as to whether I’ll see that within my lifetime.
Whaaaaaaaaaat? Fascists fascisting?!
No shit
I'm still not convinced there will be a midterm.
as if they hadn't undermine the last 3 elections.
Media cowards will be talking about "unprecedented potential for expansion of possible dangerous unaccountable powers" while they're tied to posts in front of the firing squad.
I am so fucking tired of people giving them cover by calling all the media corps 'cowards'
They aren't cowards
They are propaganda companies owned by old rich white men who are nearly 100% conservative
They are doing exactly what they are paid for: to shift EVERY FUCKING NARRATIVE to either mitigate drumpf's idiocy or tone down his fascist rhetoric
And you are their fucking tool by claiming they do this out of cowardice
It isn't cowardice, it's direct psyops and all of you are just sitting here 'tut-tutting' when IT IS ALREADY too late.
Uh huh. And what exactly does calling me a "fucking tool" gain anybody?
And for your information, YES, they are PROPAGANDA companies owned by rich old white men, but they are STAFFED by HUMAN BEINGS who CHOOSE to toe the line rather than risk their jobs or, God forbid, resign in protest. They are not ALL personally owned by and operated by the owners of the media companies.
And what cover do you think I'm providing them by calling them cowards? If it doesn't matter, who cares? This kind of divisive shit-flinging when we should coming together is petty and unproductive and I refuse to engage in it. Enjoy your angry screaming.
You promote the agenda of corporate media, so yes you are a tool.
A tool to be used to quell public outrage about our galloping into fascism
And they aren't human beings, they are fascists working to promote a fascist takeover of the United States
And you want me to EMPATHIZE with them?
You are a tool, an absolute tool.
The only appropriate response for being told to do fascist things is to quit, if they don't quit they are helping to promote fascism and now no longer deserve the label 'human'
I'm not arguing with you about the dangers of dehumanization, we are at fucking war and they are already killing us.
