They may have gone into hiding, but they never truly went away. They just reimagined themselves and became things like the Heritage Foudation, and the Federalist Society, and infultrating every level of our society in order to normalize their beliefs. youtube.com/watch?v=WSqU...

The actual document is even fucking worse saying that Dems should push a pro-capitalist prosperity gospel to working class voters. This is a complete and utter surrender to billionaires BY COWARDS WHO SHOULD BE CHASED OUT OF THE PARTY.

I never thought I’d see the day where Americans celebrated a self-appointed king, but here we are. Trump has since declared that only he and the AG have the authority to asses the legality of executive actions, and also that he has unilateral control over all independent government agencies.
What the actual fuck?! America, it’s time to rise. When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty!

Well, isn’t this just a bunch of lies? The White House moved to clarify Musk’s role within the DOGE after a court filing this morning stated that the tech billionaire is neither an employee nor an administrator of the commission and has “no actual or formal authority to make government decisions.”

for a while Musk really did seem like the most relatable billionaire. yeah, if i had that kind of money I'd want to go to space and make sports cars, etc. Turned out that was just PR, and what he really wanted out of life was to be seen as funny by teenaged Nazis on the Internet

They are going to ignore court orders.
If they ignore court orders, the social contract is dead and buried, the constitution is no longer in effect.
It's a rubicon that cannot be uncrossed.

As I’ve grown older, it’s become clear to me, conservatives don’t have an actual cohesive ideology. The things that they profess to care about (states rights, fiscal responsibility, individual liberties, non-interventionist policies), they only care about when they are not in charge.
I thought the whole purpose of Trump’s election was America to be isolationists and invest in America. Why is MAGA okay with OUR taxes going to this as well as military deployment that will be required? Hello, America, you there?!
