If there was ever a day Donald J Trump didn’t commit a crime, he must’ve been in a coma.

The Trump admin & all the destruction it has wreaked are a direct consequence of our society treating predation on women & children as a sport--a privilege for men to enjoy & a way for them to bond with each other.
Laughing off Gamergate, 4Chan, revenge pron, etc. has given us government-by-rapist.

In all honesty finding out there is one or a few tenuous connections between 4chan and this elite cabal since the beginning makes sense of a lot of things. Like the fact that GamerGate legitimately influenced Republican tactics is less insane now.
“Epstein plausibly responsible for /pol” is too much for me

FYI: If we invade Greenland we go to war with 31 nations. Let that sink in.

If ever there was a time for the 25th AMENDMENT, it's now.

political stability is dependent upon justice, equality, and the rule of law.
but you already knew that.
political stability creates economic stability which in turn allows people to plan families, businesses, and futures.

Whether they realize it or not, all these CEOs getting in bed with Trump for short-term benefit to exploit his transactional corruption are self-inflicting long-term reputational damage to themselves personally and their brands. The stink of Trump never washes off.

Both parties should support this. Using AI to generate a video of a candidate saying something he didn’t say should be illegal. Especially since many voters think it is real. I will condemn any candidate from either party who does this.

I’m thinking the Dems need to run on nothing less than remaking American democracy.
End Citizens United, totally reform the corrupt and broken SCOTUS, a new voting rights act, ban gerrymandering everywhere.
And give Trump figures who broke the law fair trials, and ban them from federal jobs.
