Reformed right-wing wacko. I didn't vote for Trump because I'm not stupid.

Whatever is in the Epstein Files is so explosive that the leaders of the Department of Justice are openly breaking the law every day to keep us from seeing it. (Just a reminder amongst all the other stuff flying around.)

As JD Vance goes to Minneapolis today to cheer on Homeland Security's terror campaign, I'm re-upping this recent thread about Vance's unfitness for office. Share it with family and friends if they ever say anything positive about this sociopath.
🧵🧵🧵 JD VANCE, SOCIOPATH 🧵🧵🧵
Here’s a thread about the vice president and why he’s a threat to your freedom.
You may know some or all of these facts, but I thought it might help to put the damning details in one place. 1/11

The new NYT poll finds Trump 17 points underwater on immigration, and the nonwhite and young voters who went to Trump in 2024 have snapped back to Dems
It's almost as if 2024 might not have represented a seismic cultural realignment on immigration after all, despite 1,000 NYT op eds to the contrary

I know this isn't the most important aspect here, but this is such a deranged farce, a degrading spectacle that constantly humiliates the United States in the eyes of the world. On top of everything else, it is a simply mind-boggling self-sabotage of national prestige and international standing.

The U.S. president is an increasingly delusional narcissist whose mental capacity is deteriorating rapidly. What’s left of him is pure grievance and a desire to dominate; the task of actually leading the government he has given over to the radical ideologues around him.
The world is in acute peril.

Trump: "Whoo. I'm glad my finger wasn't in that sucker. That could've dome some damage but you know what? I wouldn't have shown the pain. I would've gone back. Boy did you hear that? That was nasty. But I would not have shown the pain. I would've acted like nothing happens as my finger fell off."

Repeat after me - the institutions of this economy depend on the institutions of this democracy, among which is the rule of law
Jack Smith: "My fear is that we have seen the rule of law function in our country for so long that many of us have come to take it for granted. The rule of law is not self-executing. It depends on our collective commitment to apply it."

Jim Jordan has never passed the bar exam. The fact that he serves as Chair of the House Judiciary Committee tells you everything about how seriously today’s Republican Party takes its responsibility for legal oversight.

We tend to mistake strength for intensity.
But resilience is often quieter than that: regulation, continuation, adaptation. This piece explores why so many people already possess deep inner strength...and simply haven’t been taught how to recognize it.
