Let's try not to burn down the whole church while we smoke out the fascists.

Just to be clear the person most guilty of attempted voter fraud in our country is the president of the United States who literally called the Georgia Secretary of State and asked him to "find" 11,000 votes

[Tom Malinowski @Malinowski]

This will find its way to court. It will be struck down.

But the deletion of data currently available to law enforcement may be irreversible.

It's one of the most lawless and corrupt things this administration has done, and that's saying a lot.

[Tom Malinowski @Malinowski]

I helped pass this law in 2020. It's purpose is to prevent drug traffickers, Russian & Chinese kleptocrats, and other international criminals from setting up anonymously owned companies to hide their money in the US. Trump's Treasury Dept. is doing this to help criminals. 1/

The US is run by an organised crime syndicate that is destroying the evidence of their crimes

@_Zaraquin @BaylorSays Because to them, “believe” doesn’t mean “yield/consent/submit to a convincing argument or set of assertions from a trusted source”, especially in a cult. It means “cheer for; feel good about; want to be true”…
They “believe” in MAGA the way they believe in themselves, full stop.

@captainkudzu @JoelWBerry You’re right. It’s infinitely more dangerous.
The sweaty resurgence of abortion as suddenly again the existential threat, or philosophical non-negotiable, that somehow now matters the mostaest, againly but desperately and urgently, is just so transparent and half-hearted. Shame.

6 soldiers on the USS Abraham Lincoln have tried to jump off the ship due to horrific conditions during the ship’s extended deployment in the Middle East.

The crew is enduring severe supply shortages, lack of basic hygiene products, and poor-quality rations.

@brad_duren He doesn’t know what words mean. He is seven years old, and whatever he encounters is either big and strong and good and expensive or it is not those things.

[Spencer Hakimian @SpencerHakimian]

Per Trump’s public calendar, he has golfed 253 of the 568 days in his second term.

He’s golfed 45% of his presidency.

[The Shallow State @OurShallowState]

The ONLY remaining strategy for the political Right seems to be Demonization of the Left.
Because they can't talk issues. They can't talk economy. They can't talk deficit. They can't talk mandate. They can't talk integrity. They sure as shit can't talk global peace. And the number of Americans that think Trump needs to be checked keeps growing.
So their falsehoods have failed and their cartoonish hyperbole has stalled. What's left? Misstated epithets.
They've taken to using the term "communism," which they can't even define, which tells you two things:
They got nothing else.
They're speaking only to a dwindling hardcore base.

[MrTibblesNewEra @MrTibblesNewEra]

OK, I'll try.

The Tates are bad men that did horrible things to people and Dr Fauci didn't.

[Franklin Leonard @franklinleonard]

I know that at this point it's just taken as a matter of fact that Donald Trump makes statements like this, but it's critically important that we don't lose sight of just how unconscionable they are and just how unconscionable the decision is to support him in any way.

[ANNE LAMOTT @ANNELAMOTT]

Well, you kind of were, sort of.

[G. F. Allen @AuthorGFAllen]

You seem to be doomscrolling a lot for someone with 20+ unread books.

[Purple Christian @deeppurplexian]

@CrenshawPhD @jt_english They’ve never been happier than these past ten years! The abortion rate hasn’t moved, yet they got MILLIONS of Xians to sign on to fascism, cruelty, racism, corruption…and the whole cult are STILL convinced that they’re the good guys because they yell Boo Hiss at this governor.

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

@SenBillCassidy You’re a doctor who voted to put an anti-vaxxer crackpot in charge of public health.

[Purple Christian @deeppurplexian]

@JamesDueck @MochaLite No. Fascism. Fascism is the primary ballot issue. There are good debates to be had about gun policy, the best way to bring abortion rates down, immigration/deportation laws, tax incentives, Medicare for all, and funding public education. But we can’t have any of it under fascism.

[Purple Christian @deeppurplexian]

@JamesDueck Not the tiniest bit
