For over 5 years, Marjorie Taylor Greene was one of the people in Congress most disliked by Democrats.
No death threats.
It was only when she turned on Donald Trump that she got death threats.
Just like Senators only received threats of violence after they wavered on Trump's cabinet nominations.

Impunity is the word.
It is the same impunity that got us Trump. Like Epstein, Trump built a career on a transactional chumminess, mutual self-indulgence, and an alarmingly high tolerance level for misbehavior by the layers of political, business, media, and cultural elites surrounding him.

It was perfectly captured by political scientist Ed Burmila: “The crisis of elite impunity that is ruining our society cannot be more clearly or convincingly demonstrated than with the fact that all of these people wrote all this stuff into an email and hit Send.”

How is this not clear to anyone saying "chill out." Five alarms, here. My member of Congress today, who is very good, seemed to be on vacay. These times demand action, even when we know people need a break. bsky.app/profile/detr...
Sure, Congress deserves a holiday. Except we are not living in ordinary times. It's Aug. 11. The leader of the "land of the free and the home of the brave" has federalized police control of the nation's capital. This has NEVER happened in US history. My House member has a PDX Pickles vid posted?🥵

The military takeover of Washington is not a “distraction” from Epstein. It’s a military takeover of Washington, which is an even bigger deal, and those of us who kill brain cells reporting on this stuff knows it’s been an explicit goal since before the election.

Lil Marco is learning that diplomacy is difficult, despite the fact that his boss promised to end this war in 24 hours with one phone call & said it “wouldn’t even be that hard to do.” What he won’t say is this isn’t getting done because Putin WANTS war.

Q: So you're confirming they didn't commit a crime?

Insane how quickly the racist regression is happening in this country. Decades of progress being undone in weeks, without even any laws having to be passed. Just sheer intimidation from Trump and the right, and sheer cowardice from the corporations.

During what was reported as a "heated" (at times) conversation yesterday, Trump attempted to move the goal posts, fished for reasons to justify his tariffs, and was bluntly rebuffed by our PM. The crux: remove ALL tariffs and then we will consider removing our countermeasures. I say we keep them on.

I saw #moonraker in theaters when I was 10, and while I thought it was cool, the idea that a Billionaire rocket developer secretly being a Nazi seemed really far fetched to me. Guess I had a lot to learn.
