It will become increasingly important for people to take video and protect and save that video so that when there is finally an accounting for what’s happening, there will be evidence.

Nothing says pathetic fragile crook quite like orange felon accepting someone else’s Nobel Peace Prize and nothing says disgraceful fraud quite like Machado gifting her Nobel Peace Prize to a murderous tyrant like him for power. I hope the Nobel Committee strips it from her.

Yeah. I knew one for years, knew he was ruthless & manipulative underneath a guise of play acting a bumbling nice guy, & still was shocked and afraid when his mask slipped completely. I knew he was capable of bad things, but the evil and the sheer joy of power & domination left my blood cold.

People engage with the charming mask of sociopathy and think they aren’t so bad.

You have clearly never seen them take the mask all the way off.

Its a maneuver usually used entirely in private

And you won’t be okay afterwards unless you are exactly as evil.

You do all know that Cohn absolutely knew the Rosenbergs were innocent and did not give a fuck.

I think there is a particular glazed look in the eyes of people who are in existential shock of mobsters who have threatened to kill or harm their families or whatever/whoever is most precious to them.

This is how the mob works and has always worked.

How Cohn worked.
How Trump & co works

I think people really continuously underestimate the depth of Trump’s sociopathy.

Really, think about how much of Roy Cohn’s strategies were secret, personal, familial executable threats of murder.

These fuckers will kill your children slowly to own you.

.@PabloReports: Stephen Miller seems to be operating sort of as a shadow president at this point. Is there any legal liability he could face at the end of this presidency?

Ryan: There’s going to be legal—and I think criminal—liability for multiple members.. certainly Stephen Miller.

Liberals who say Putin controls Trump should read what @sodrock.bsky.social told me in this interview:

Putin’s goal is "the erosion of Western cohesion, legitimacy and confidence. On that score, Trump has been extraordinarily useful without being directed."

I suggest it's cuz he's so vain.
1. I was telling you the other day that it’s not really clear why the president ordered the illegal and unconstitutional invasion of Venezuela and the kidnapping of its head of state. Regime officials provided reasons but were often contravened by Donald Trump. www.editorialboard.com/whether-the-...
Whether the Epstein files or the attack on Venezuela, it’s all rooted in Trump’s corruption
The liberal resistance doesn’t have to choose which is worse.
