Manifesto of Liberal Democracy

Democracy | Law | Markets

[Frank Luntz @FrankLuntz]

Let us learn from the words of Robert Kennedy who calmed a nation:

"Let us replace the violence and the stain of bloodshed that has spread across our land, with an effort to understand with compassion and love."

[Project Liberal @ProjectLiberal]

We agree with Charlie Kirk on basically nothing.

Except that he deserves the right, as every human does, to speak freely without the threat of violence.

[Ezra Klein @ezraklein]

In the last few years we've seen:

- The plot to kidnap Gretchen Whitmer
- The Storming of the Capitol and pipe bombs left at the RNC and DNC
- The break-in to kidnap Nancy Pelosi and the brutal on Paul Pelosi
- Multiple assassination attempts against Trump
- The assassination of Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband and the shooting of on State Senator John Hoffman and his wife
- Luigi Mangione's assassination of Brian Thompson
- The assassination of Charlie Kirk

Political violence is contagious. It is spreading. It is not confined to one side or belief system. It should terrify us all.

The foundation of a free society is the ability to participate in it without fear of violence. Political violence is always an attack against us all. You have to be so blind not to see that.

@FrankLuntz That’s what taxes DO. They raise revenue and reduce deficits.

@SocratesSword @nicksortor Looks like National Socialism, actually

[Manifesto of Liberal Democracy @ManLibDem]

@andrew_pulse @nicksortor @naomirwolf @grok This is National Socialism

[Project Liberal @ProjectLiberal]

Do not fall into the collectivist trap.

Rich people aren't a monolith.

Immigrants aren't a monolith.

White people aren't a monolith.

Jewish people aren't a monolith.

The collectivization of individuals has been the prerequisite for the worst evils the world has ever known.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Independence Day is a reminder that America is not the project of any one person. The single most powerful word in our democracy is the word ‘We.’ ‘We The People.’ ‘We Shall Overcome.’ ‘Yes We Can.’ America is owned by no one. It belongs to all citizens. And at this moment in history—when core democratic principles seem to be continuously under attack, when too many people around the world have become cynical and disengaged—now is precisely the time to ask ourselves tough questions about how we can build our democracies and make them work in meaningful and practical ways for ordinary people.

Anyone else feel like Elon Musk @elonmusk has become the Trotsky of MAGA?

And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king which ye shall have chosen you; and the Lord will not hear you in that day.
1 Samuel 8:18 (KJV)

@RealAlexJones Bless your heart, you penniless bastard.

Such meaningful ignorance. “For more than two centuries, it has been established that impeachment is not an appropriate response to disagreement concerning a judicial decision. The normal appellate review process exists for that purpose.” -Chief Justice John Roberts. See also, The Federalist Papers.

I highly recommend to all Americans to read (or reread) The Federalist Papers.

The US won the Cold War in 1990. 35 years later Trump has gone back and lost it, for some reason.
