"Show them you're not afraid. Do it for the country. For the Constitution. For your family. For yourself. Do it for your freedom. While you still can."

This is excellent. Every Dem strategist who thinks there's risk in engaging these debates should watch it for guidance.

The White House is freaking out about the No Kings protest against Trump and his fascist authoritarian regime's Nazification of America. Apparently, Americans are not cool with Stephen Miller's "plenary authority" claim that Trump has the same ultimate power as Hitler once did.

The Portland Frog army has now infiltrated Tulsa, OK and they’ve made an unlikely alliance with the T-Rex infantry and Sharks on Hoverboards mercenary forces.

This is truly terrifying.
