Ossoff: "Our whole government made a corrupt tool of one man's vengeance and power and wealth ... in one month, Athens, we will vote to rebuke him so decisively, no president will dare such abuses again for centuries!"

Mike Johnson announced at the GOP convention that he will not allow Democrats to be seated if they gain seats at midterms. He's done it before and he has vowed to do it again.. might be time for a retaliatory insurrection if he does 🤬

Those are certainly problems, but I think it’s a much deeper cause. Allowing political power to be focused by wealth. Letting white collar crimes go relatively unpunished. Not treating every American like an American with equal rights. Those are what lead to and maintain Trumpism, IMHO.

If you let a president turn the federal government into his personal weapon for vengeance and profit without consequence, you're signing the death warrant of the republic.

it's not the potus daring - it's thiel, his broligarch minions, the heritage foundation, the federalist society & the corporations that control our political system through dark money/pacs. and the 77M that voted for this corruption & destruction of our country. and they'll try it again in 2032.

The irony is that I agree with much of what the “I only care about punishing Israel” advocates say (minus the anti-semitism). But I’m at the point of just saying - enough- I’m done with it. They helped Trump win in 2024, and nothing has changed. Even now, they seem fine with helping Republicans. 🤷‍♀️

Jon Ossoff understands how power works. “Rebuke him so decisively that no man will dare” to do it again. No appeasement. No compromise to move on. A clear message that this WILL NOT HAPPEN AGAIN.

Ossoff is going to be the new Obama. He tells it like it is in the way everyone can understand. He's going to win his Senate seat and then go onto win the presidency in 2028. I'm very good with that. 😎

No. The vote is only the beginning. Justice must prevail. The largest conviction in American history must come after they are voted out. EVERY enabler who broke the law MUST be held accountable.

Just a reminder it will take way more than an election not to ever have this happen to us again. It will take years of hard continuous work to rebuild this country.

i understand the sentiment. but you know that fewer than 10 house members haven't received AIPAC funds of some sort, right? i'm not excusing it, but not everyone that AIPAC has contributed to is beholden to israeli foreign policy. respectfully, who is your rep? are their hands clean?

Jon Ossoff is NOT accepting money from AIPAC — that’s verified by Federal Election Commission records. In fact, AIPAC has funded campaign ads *attacking* him. Further, his campaign eschews contributions from corporate PACs & federal lobbyists. But if you have info to the contrary, do enlighten us.

Yup. I think this is something a lot of dems look over. It's not just electing someone else and spend some time to reestablish trust. Also needs something more to ensure it doesn't happen again.

Rebuke? Only if Ossoff means a public execution for treason. Along with all the enablers and foreign assets. We got to this point because we “let’um up easy.” So unless we are willing to go all in on punishing these traitors, we will be here again, sooner rather than later.

Removing Trump's Republican collaborators and enablers from Congress in November is the first & absolutely necessary step to holding the most corrupt and incompetent kakistocracy in American history accountable BEFORE it does worse things in our name. Let's get it done! #VoteBlue for accountability!

Tom Lehrer, in "MLF Lullaby": "Once all the Germans were warlike and mean But that couldn't happen again We taught them a lesson in 1918 And they've hardly bothered us since then"

That, and stripping him off his wealth and throwing him and everyone in his administration in prison. And his billionaire buddies. And the media that pushed him for clicks and engagement.
