Suspicion, fears offspring, is eminently characteristic of most wild animals. Charles Darwin, The Descent of Man (1871).

It's a hard fucking fact of life to accept, but one we'd better own up to before it's too late.

Face it, America elected a Russian Asset as president. Face it, Cash Patel is visiting Moscow as Russian asset. Face it, the Republican Party is aligned with Putin & his Russian oligarchs. Face it, Republican Party has no interest in American democracy, GOP wants & gets ChristianNationalist America.

This is both hilarious and true.

How is this even legal?

Russia is now exempt from the Lindsey O. Graham Russia Sanctions Act. The US government is clearly allied with Putin against Ukraine. Vote Republican enablers out.

Everyone is acting like this is some big scandal when it's nothing more than a slovenly display of poor hiring practices by the dumbest fucking administration in the history of the United States.

WSJ:  Katie Zacharia has never passed the bar exam in the U.S.. She failed the test in California in 2011. Once she moved to China, she served as an international legal consultant, which did not require passing the bar.

If you are shocked this am that Trump’s government executed a search warrant against a Democratic Member of Congress and ignored a judge’s order then you haven’t been paying attention. Stop saying this isn’t how it works in the US. It is exactly how it works under Trump.

Even if true, it still makes Mr. Talarico a better Senatorial candidate than Ken Paxton. Yeah! I said it!

All lies just to discredit James Talarico, while ignoring that Trump is a convicted criminal and a pedophile….

Jack Smith is the walking epitome of what I want America to be. I never thought we were perfect, but I believed we were better than what we are now.

If you seriously think he's going to go gentle into the good night, I have a bridge in Brooklyn I'd like you to consider.

Of course it does. The man is terrified.

Federal Judges must, en masse, sign and publicly release a No Confidence Vote in the US Supreme Court. To stay true to their Oaths, federal Justices must clearly rebuke SCOTUS regarding its constant Constitution Violations, Corruption and enabling of Trump’s Fascist regime.

It’s alarming how far this country has slid backward in just two years. Shocking, actually . If we keep letting those in power get away with it, imagine what 2028 will look like… We cannot afford to normalize this. Now, go VOTE! 😎🇺🇸✨

Either there’s rule of law or there’s not. Either we are defined by a system of justice that holds the guilty accountable or we aren’t. Either we have a democracy that limits abuse to define our public life and the rights of citizens or we have a country collapsing into strongman authoritarianism.
