How democracy destroys itself from within.

This has always been the ballgame, and the western world is nearing the end-stage of that subversion.

The thing about Johnson not swearing in Grijalva is that’s it a test for 2026.

If you think they will accept an outcome they don’t like, they will just Grijalva it.

So what’s the plan when the GOP says “we ain’t leaving, fuck you, make us.”

Because that IS what they are going to say.

Dear Americans,

just to make things clear:

Almost nobody here knows who Naomi Seibt is. She is absolutely not relevant in the European German speaking world and is basically an activist for anti-science and anti-democracy propaganda, paid by American right-wing think tanks.

The way he rubs his inhumanity in Americans” face never ceases to stun me.

He’s illegally refusing to pay food stamp benefits…

…while he throws a ridiculously over the top Gatsby party for his right wing millionaire and corporate friends.

Just so we’re clear…

SNAP isn’t saved yet. A judge gave the USDA until Monday to decide how or if benefits go out. They could be delayed, reduced, or partial. Nothing’s guaranteed.

Even if payments restart, states still have to reload cards and update systems, so delays are certain.
