Speaking of Black-washing. During WW2, two-thirds of the French army were Africans. When it came time to liberate Paris, the allies handpicked an all White French division to enter Paris first so that French people wouldn't feel humiliated for being liberated by Africans

[Caleb @Calebej37]

Is this even legal? We have a free trade agreement across the three countries, ratified by Congress 385-41 and 89-10 respectively.

[David Frum @davidfrum]

It's disheartening that in an age where knowledge has never been more accessible - the United States is about to be governed by an administration so primitive and ignorant as to believe that tariffs are good and that vaccines are bad.

[ToBeChaste @ChasteBe]

What exactly did Garland do during his 4 years?

Can we have an audit of his time? He appointed Jack Smith. Maybe that took a day (and ensured he wouldn’t have to do anything else?).

Seriously. What. Did. He. Do?

[Meacham @MeachamDr]

Trump’s pick for Surgeon General has a medical degree from the American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine. No, seriously. I’m not making this up. (The current Surgeon General has a BA from Harvard and an MD from Yale).

This is what a billionaire-funded media complex can buy you.

Also, the belief that immigrants are some huge problem. In fact, immigrants commit less crime than American citizens and pay over $90 billion a year into our social security funds, without getting any back.

[ToBeChaste @ChasteBe]

A lovely idea, except Americans who voted for Trump never listen to a word from lefty MSNBC.
The overpowering volume of the right-wing, billionaire-funded media apparatus governs public information at this point: radio, social-media, newspapers, TV and cable, all booming along

[Old Man Lefty @OldManLefty1]

Just imagine if MSNBC had spent 24 hours a day reporting on Biden/Harris historic accomplishments, and not 24 hours a day of showing Trump rally clips and social media posts?

“Skirt federal law.”

Not “skirt,” destroy. No law exists that can be enforced against Trump, anymore.

That ship sailed, captained by the most inert AG of all time.

The louder FOXNews and it’s ilk got over the decades, the more inevitable this all became.

[Aaron Parnas @AaronParnas]

Not enough people are talking about how Donald Trump's team continues to skirt federal law by failing to sign critical documents as required by the Presidential Transition Act.

[ToBeChaste @ChasteBe]

Lovely idea, but it presumes the American people hear any opposition. The size, volume, and control of the right-wing media apparatus is so overwhelming, as to drown out all reason and critique.

This is simply how fascism is so horribly effective, proven by this very election.

[Rick Taylor @OhRick4]

I honestly do not believe that we will suffer under Trump for long

It may get bad, real bad but remember, once MAGA turns on Trump we will have a common enemy

And when the People unite, we have the power and we can wield it

[ToBeChaste @ChasteBe]

When Trump got this close to Putin, leaning in, he did it from his knees.

[ToBeChaste @ChasteBe]

Of course. Putting this Trump agent in charge of the postal system (to his own direct personal financial benefit), and having him ride out the entire Biden administration, was not an accident.

All the whinging about a “stolen election” in 2020 was acts as craven cover.

[James Tate @JamesTate121]

This is why Louis De Joy should have been replaced. Democrats never learn. Republicans will cheat at every turn.

Multiple election offices report receiving mailed ballots misdirected from other states

The actual language of the Constitution? That’s quaint.

Didn’t you hear? The Supreme Court decided none of that matters. No matter how clearly worded.

‘Cause.. 14th Amd. Sec. 3. There was a trial in Colorado. Meaninglessness.

Law is such old news.

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

The Senate is an independent, co-equal branch of government, designed to be a check on the power of the President. Those Senators were elected by the people.

[ToBeChaste @ChasteBe]

We have a megaphone problem.

We don’t have one. They do.

No one can hear what we’re saying over the din of the right-wing, billionaire-funded media leviathan.

[Maya May @mayaonstage]

Do we have a messaging problem, or do we have a “Republicans lied to people so consistently for so long about the root of their discontent that they now live in a damn near impenetrable bubble” problem?

[Samuel Sinyangwe @samswey]

We are living through a historical period where a tiny network of billionaires has teamed up across USA/Russia/Europe/Middle East to absolutely destroy the futures of everyday people and our planet, all to further enrich themselves. Just like Karl Marx predicted, actually.

[ToBeChaste @ChasteBe]

Garland will be remembered as the AG who abandoned the Rule of Law in favor of afternoon nap time.

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

BREAKING NEWS:

Special counsel Jack Smith has just asked Judge Chutkan to dismiss all charges in Donald Trump’s election interference case.

History will remember Merrick Garland’s cowardice for not bringing the case sooner.

Thoughts?

[ToBeChaste @ChasteBe]

Sounds great. I also want a spirit pony I can ride into the sky whenever I want.

[Rep. Ro Khanna @RepRoKhanna]

Congress received $250 million in dark money during the 2024 election season.

People should decide elections, not wallets.

Let’s ban PAC & lobbyist money, and ban members from ever becoming lobbyists.

[MeidasTouch @MeidasTouch]

Canada's top military commander Jennie Carignan calls out the GOP for questioning women in combat: After 39 years as a combat arms officer and risking my life in many operations, I can’t believe that in 2024, we still have to justify women's contribution to defense and service in their country...
