What a perfect analogy and response to resistlibs who whinge about "why are you protesting democrats and not republicans." Well done. 🧵
the reason people sometimes act madder at democrats than republicans when republicans do impossibly evil shit is the same reason why, if you hired an exterminator to handle a roach infestation and he showed up to feed and play with them instead, your first instinct wouldn’t be to yell at the roaches

If only this kind of logic would seep through the brains of millions of gullible and ignorant Americans.
So let me get this straight. After decades of refusing to act on gun safety legislation, Republicans finally decide to tackle systemic gun violence by (checks notes) charging a dictator of a foreign country with possession of machine guns, bombing that country, kidnapping him, & stealing their oil.🤦🏽♂️

Asked about the possibility of impeachment, Schumer says "we hope that we can have support from our Republican colleagues to put a brake on this long before it gets that far"

Stop saying that all Schumer and Jeffries ever do is write strongly worded letters. Bullshit. They're not strongly worded at all.

Israel is an illegal occupation that has no right to self defence on a land it's illegally occupying. The only right they have is to get the hell out of Palestine.

Controlling the judiciary and amassing wealth through corruption, you say?
Cilia Flores, who was captured by the U.S. with her husband, Venezuela’s longtime authoritarian president, Nicolás Maduro, is one of the country’s most powerful political figures. She helped consolidate his rule while controlling the judiciary and amassing wealth through corruption, experts say.

Before the Iraq war they at least went through the motions of all those bullshit hearings and UN meetings where they did their whole WMD lie parade. A gesture to the idea that waging war on a sovereign nation was a big decision that should not be made lightly.
