George Carlin nailed it. They're ready for violence. They know just what to do about violence. What they cannot handle is humor. Ridicule. The sardonic truth of their evil on full display for all of society. So - we know what have to do to win this. Show the world their mediocrity. That's their fear

A reminder:

This isn’t ideology
This isn’t incompetence
This isn’t business as usual
This isn’t temporary
This isn’t normal
This isn’t ethical
This isn’t legal
This isn’t meant to be popular
This isn’t meant to be good for anyone

This has been a strategic attack against the U.S.

Act accordingly

When leadership hides, the reason is no good

Supreme Court reverses lower court rulings while hiding behind the shadow docket

Congressional Rs hide from press and negotiations, hide on vacation, then hide from constituents

The administration hides their intentions

Trump hides from accountability

My representative replied to a voicemail I left for him that the only reason he's not voting for the discharge petition is because when the resolution passes, Trump will veto it. My response is that they then need to override the veto. Anyway, that seems to be their current excuse.

If Adelita Grijalva is confirmed, Congress will vote to release the Epstein Files.

As long as Congress is shut down, Mike Johnson has an excuse for why he will not hold a vote to confirm Grijalva.

Any adult male that needs his teenage son to monitor his usage probably shouldn't be house speaker.

AZ AG Mayes: If I have to, I’ll take Speaker Johnson to court. There's no legitimate reason for him to refuse to swear her in right now. And it's not fair for Mike Johnson to be holding the state of Arizona hostage because he doesn't want to release the Epstein files.

Mamdani is going to win. The question will now be, "Can you reproduce this?" It's doubtful. He's talented. But it's possible, first of all, if you remember all politics is local, and the more local you get - the more people recognize you - the more things like age and parties cease to matter.

I don't think Putin can afford to admit that the war hasn't been a mistake&stop the war he cannot win.This’ll mean the end of his power.He needs a war that lasts- lasts until the end of his life

Is Putin ready to stop the war?That is the wrong question
The right question is:Can Putin stop the war?⤵️
