Absolutely agree! They helped create this mess in 2016 and they enable this mess again in 2024 and are continuing to support it today.

The lowest common denominator for this mess is the Republican Party!

Bob Meier @bmeier79.bsky.social · 27m

This country is in the mess it's in today because Republicans ran a criminal clown with delusions of grandeur for President, and the Republican rigged Supreme Court has allowed the lawless fool to send our military into American cities to stop peaceful protests against him to stay in power.

Johnson is a common and notorious serial liar, just like his owner, the orange clown!

BREAM: Open enrollments starts in November. People are already getting notices about what they may pay. I mean, that's gotta be resolved.

MIKE JOHNSON: Yes, and they're eating up the clock in the month of October

(Johnson canceled the House in August to avoid taking votes on Epstein)

The case against James Comey should (and probably will) be dismissed for vindictive prosecution:

Last I checked the GOP controls all branches of our government.

Tweet from MeidasTouch: “Wow that’s crazy. Who’s running the federal government?”
Below, Acyn’s tweet quotes Rep. Mike Johnson: “If you look at polling, people’s faith in the federal government is at an all-time low. Why? Because they don’t see that it’s being done well.”
A C-SPAN screenshot shows Johnson speaking with another man standing beside him.

This is not real, it's another Trump lie!

Bob Meier @bmeier79.bsky.social · 3h

This assertion is a proven Trump lie. Trump summoned white supremacist groups to Washington, DC, on January 6 to overturn our vote and keep himself in office. His mob beat the police, and he pardoned them.

This court is interpreting the constitution in a way to justify their ends. They are not upholding the constitution nor will they. They are allowing Trump to deploy the military in US cities. Trump wants the military in US cities to stifle protest against him and his corrupt regime.

Lots of ways to understand the contemporary moment but one is the role of owners of immobile assets - oil, gas, coal and land- who want to ensure they can continue to extract rents (and pollute) and who prefer an authoritarian set up to do so. Their threat perception rises with every new eco tech
