Mel Brooks is absolutely right. “Comedy brings religious persecutors, dictators, and tyrants to their knees faster than any other weapon.”

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.
Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

Todd Blanche looks like he's hearing about this for the first time. Kash Patel looks like "I'm not even with these guys. I'm just waiting for the bus." Pam looks like her teacher just asked her to summarize the theme of "A Tale of Two Cities" in front of the whole class after not reading a word.

These people have been slithering and reproducing in the dark money shadows of politics since the decadent 80s. Now they're extorting the country like it's their birthright. Straight up shaking us down.

Failing to stay politically relevant after his awful term by clamoring against the New Deal, Herbert Hoover offered to advise FDR regarding Europe during WWII. FDR emphatically refused, telling an aide "I’m not Jesus Christ, I’m not raising that man from the dead."

2016 study measuring psychopathic traits in presidential candidates. Trump ranked above Adolf Hitler and just below Idi Amin, Saddam Hussein and Henry VIII. (Clinton ranked between Napoleon and Nero.) Perspective gained from historical reflection has saved me from utter despair over the last decade.
Presidential candidates may be psychopaths – but that could be a good
A new study of psychopathic traits by Oxford University psychologist discovers that Donald Trump ranks above Adolf Hitler and only just below Idi Amin, Saddam Hussein and Henry VIII. Hillary Clinton

@leavingmaga.bsky.social Have you considered inviting MTG to be a guest on your show? I'm sure it would be insightful for your subscribers.

JVL expressed it perfectly regarding MTG in my opinion, and what's more is that his insights might apply to some, but definitely not all of Maga.
@jvl.bsky.social and @samsteindc.bsky.social talk about Marjorie Taylor Greene’s strange sincerity, her break with Trump, and why believing your own bullshit sometimes makes you more honest than everyone else in Washington.

Bondi will jump on the grenade, open an investigation into democrats and block the files. Trump will insist they be released but let it play out in congress before signing, then use the DOJ for cover. "Pam is doing a great job. This is a Democrat hoax and soon we can forget about Epstein for good."

The republicans went after Hunter Biden for 4 years. Relentlessly. Dems should question Ivanka about when Trump set her up with Elite Modeling and Casablanca in the 90s when she was 14. She would have known some of the young girls who accused Trump of unwanted advances and serious sexual assaults.
Teen models, powerful men and private dinners: when Trump hosted Look of the Year
In the early 90s, Donald Trump judged contestants at the world’s biggest modelling competition - since hit by allegations of abuse. This is how the people who were there remember it

Ivanka modeled as a teen so she likely saw her father taking advantage of other impressionable, young girls. Nothing is sacred to Trump. He doesn't possess the instinct a father has to protect his daughter. Ivanka was exposed to Epstein and Trump boasted about how "hot" she was. Subpoena her.

Ivanka Trump hasn't made a peep about her father being in the Epstein Files, has she? Interesting because she was definitely there at the time as a young model herself, when Trump was attending fashion shows and hosting beauty contests with teens and pre-teens the same age as she was.

1/ Rereading A World to Win, by Upton Sinclair. Historical fiction published in 1946. Lanny Budd is a double agent in Vichy France operating as an arbiter to the French underground under FDR. His cover as a wealthy, nazi pundit ingratiates him within the party.

Republicans have "concepts of. a plan" for the 20 million Americans who will lose their ACA subsidies, doubling our healthcare premiums.
They at least made some progress with the name. "Trump Care." Two words that couldn't be more diametrically opposed.
