if democrats win one of the biggest strains will be the drive to hold them accountable for holding trump and the gop acountable. every time for the last 40 years when the dems have won they took their foot off the gas and we suffered. we must push them and their boot-licking defenders.

We should label this “Stockholm syndrome”—a way to describe idiots who don’t know the difference between Sweden and Norway.

Norway: "I didn't get the Nobel Prize so I don't want anybody from Norway. I don't want anything to do with Norway…Frankly, Norway sucks. Norway has become a shithouse country, actually."

Every single TV commercial against democratic candidates I’ve seen are just the weakest, most pathetic commercials ever made—they have NOTHING, just lies, BS, and paranoid, fever-dream fear mongering. They’re getting wiped out and they know it.

Can't sacrifice something that doesn't exist.

Ramaswamy's answer: he sacrificed his integrity to slime a 12-year-old rape victim to advance his political career.

“I’ve never once” been pro-data center expansion, says Vivek Ramaswamy. Except he was on camera calling Ohio’s booming data center construction “a good thing.” He thinks Ohioans aren’t listening or have no memory—but they do. And the internet has receipts, Vivek. #RepublicansLoveDataCenters

Apparently it’s opposite day again 🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️

Vance just held an outrageous presser in which he defended Vivek's vile attacks on Acton, agreed w/ Witkoff's assessment of Putin as a "humanitarian," and had gall to claim "there's no person who hates people enriching themselves fraudulently over access to the govt than Donald J Trump" Supercut:

Funny how data centers always look so impressive in the pitch. People living beside an 800,000-square-foot facility in Sterling, VA tell a different story: noise, exhaust, bright lights. Republicans eager for more should go knock on those doors. #RepublicansLoveDataCenters

I think if Ohio voters *really* think about what that ad means, they'll conclude that it means Republicans trust the people who defend pedophiles more than they trust the victims of pedophiles.

🚨WATCH: NASA REVEALS THE NIGHT SKY FROM MARS — A VIEW UNLIKE EARTH’S NASA has shared a rare glimpse of the Martian night sky. Unlike Earth, Mars has a much thinner atmosphere, meaning less atmospheric scattering of light and a different view of the cosmos.

How delusional are Trumpers? They actually think Biden was a worse president than President Pedo. The level of detachment from reality and rejection of objective facts to think that is truly breathtaking.

Coming soon to a country near you: Team Science vs. Team Darwin. 😞😞😞 (Personally I’m on Team Science)

Q: What is the US going to do about the risk of bubonic plague coming from Russia? TRUMP: Well we're looking at it very strongly

Five weeks from right now, polls will be closing and we’ll all be watching the election results come in. Whether the people win back power or the fascists consolidate control comes down to the work we do over these next 35 days.
