There are going to be prominent Democrats and mainstream media voices who insist that we have to "turn the page" and "forgive and forget" and they should all be roundly ignored, if not mercilessly mocked.
It’s crazy to think about the crimes we’re going to learn about after this regime ends.
We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over.
We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.

Don't rehabilitate MTG, she's still the awful, racist, transphobic, anti-semite she's always been. She just realized the grift is over and is one of the first rats off the sinking ship.

“trump is ecstatic to meet the muslim socialist immigrant mayor of new york while MAGA’s strongest soldier from georgia-14 resigns in disgust” is a fucking coalition-breaking disaster for the hard right
no, it’s fucking terrible for trump, lol
I don't know if it makes sense to describe what happened today as "good PR". The Fox crowd doesn't seem terribly thrilled about the meeting either.

Lotta folks who couldn’t define “socialism” if their lives depended on it are out there tonight feeling profoundly confused over the Mamdani/Trump meeting. If you see one, try not to laugh. They’re hurting.

Trump: the first president to take a personal hand in prosecuting his enemies; doesn’t care about due process or rule of law. History notes one of the reasons why the American colonies became the U.S was because King George III arbitrarily prosecuting those who disagreed with him.

while I’m being cranky, access journalism needs to go. When the president does his “I’m alpha because I insulted you” thing somebody needs to fall on his sword and say “what the fuck is wrong with you, old man?” on a hot mic. the hero of the wizard of Oz is Toto.

Let us note that trying to distract from the Epstein files by reposting comments about your political opponents like 'HANG THEM GEORGE WASHINGTON WOULD' is not normal presidential behavior. But it's not even the craziest thing Trump has done this week.

Until this week I’d never seen a president call one female reporter a “piggy,” tell another she’s insubordinate and appear to threaten members of Congress with execution.
Any 1 of those are unprecedented occurrences. We got 3 of them in one week courtesy of Donald Trump

When a President calls for the death of lawmakers protecting the oath military members take to the Constitution (NOT the President), you are watching a full-blown Constitutional Crisis. This is the ultimate test of our democracy. We cannot look away.

It’s unfortunate there is no easy way to remove representatives in Congress for not doing their job of keeping their oath to the Constitution. We have to wait for the midterms. 😞.

It’s fun to think about the surgeon who will botch your surgery 20 years from now and what he’s doing at this moment. He just ran all his homework through ChatGPT. He just read that article about vaccines and autism at the CDC website. He just watched an Instagram video about the moon landing hoax.

Remember: The oligarchs who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful.
They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone.
Don't fall for it.
