The choice is impeachment and removal or calamity for the United States. I don't see how anybody watching Trump's speech in Davos can draw any other conclusion. He's a senile madman.

We have a system set up to prevent this, and we have a party that has set itself up to prevent the system from working.
We are watching one of the wildest things a nation-state has ever done: A superpower is committing suicide because the GOP Congress is too cowardly to stand up to the Mad King.

This is one of the wildest moments in all of geopolitics ever.

The "when is he going to get serious" bit is critical to understanding why the Democratic establishment is failing to live up to this moment. It's entirely about shifting agency to Trump. Warner isn't saying "This is what *we* will do," he's tut tutting a deranged fascist for not doing it for them.
Despite Trump’s promises, grocery prices are still rising fast. Families can’t afford this… when is he going to get serious about lowering costs?

“The court recognized that Trump Department of Energy vindictively canceled projects for clean affordable energy that just happened to be in states disfavored by the Trump admin, in violation of the bedrock Constitutional guarantee that all people in all states have equal protection under the law."
Trump administration unlawfully cut clean energy grants, court rules
The decision is a victory for St. Paul, Minnesota, and a coalition of energy and environmental groups that sued the U.S. Department of Energy after it canceled $7.5 billion in financial awards.

It’s also worth emphasizing that every major attack on the civil service over the last 50 years - that it’s inefficient, incompetent, or unaccountable - was simply false and made in bad faith by enemies of the modern welfare and regulatory state. They’re liars and you should treat them that way.
For some reason, very few people these days will stand up and say it, but: the US federal bureaucracy is one of the great wonders of the world, staffed with incredibly diligent people who do their jobs well and care deeply.

Trump's destruction of the federal apparaus was a historic crime.
The Purged
Donald Trump’s destruction of the civil service is a tragedy not just for the roughly 300,000 workers who have been discarded, but for an entire nation.

Two days ago it was Elissa Slotkin. Last week it was Jerome Powell. Before that, Mark Kelly. Weaponizing the justice system against your opponents is an authoritarian tactic.

The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her.
Breaking news: The Justice Department has issued subpoenas for Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey as part of an investigation alleging that they are impeding federal law enforcement officers’ abilities to do their jobs in the state.

Joe Rogan is telling his millions of listeners the Trump admin is acting like Nazis.

Shawn Ryan is telling his millions of listeners the White House is actively protecting pedophiles.

Meanwhile, the paid GOP shills on Twitter want you to believe Trump is as popular as ever.

Fun fact! We could be using the $75 billion allocated for ICE on literally anything else! Like essential services that help people exist! It’s almost as if these issues + our priorities have a lot of overlap!

Also people definitely can’t afford things if they get shot in the face!

The Insurrection Act is not "martial law." It doesn't displace civilian law, it doesn't suspend habeas corpus, it doesn't alter or suspend state and local government, and it doesn't make anything newly illegal. It allows using the military to enforce existing law, it doesn't change what the law is.

If ICE members truly believed everything they were doing was on the up-and-up, they would not be hiding behind masks, they would not be running away the moment communities come to film them, and they would not be murdering random passersby in cold blood.

The aging pedophile who wants to be a king has kidnapped the leader of a sovereign nation without congressional approval.

If the United States had an opposition party, they would treat this as an illegitimate act and start impeachment proceedings immediately.
