If enough GOP voters hadn't been dumb or bigoted enough to support an insurrectionist and adjudicated rapist or if GOP congresspeople had shown the slightest bit of spine on behalf of the Republic in 2021, we wouldn't be having this conversation

The idea that JD Vance—who has never been to Ukaine and chalks up his knowledge to shit he read on the internet—believes he knows more about the situation in Ukraine than the man who has led it for the past 5.5 years is a perfect encapsulation of the havoc this administration is wreaking worldwide
ZELENSKYY: Putin broke the ceasefire. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you speaking about?
VANCE: I think it's disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media

Trump berates Zelensky, the leader of a democratic country courageously fighting Russian imperialism, while he allies himself with Putin, a dictator who started the bloodiest European war in 80 years.
Sorry, President Trump. We believe in democracy, not authoritarianism.

GLENN: Why don't you wear a suit? You're at the highest level in this country's office & you refuse to wear a suit. A lot of Americans have problems with you not respecting the office.

1. The Republicans and the very obscenely rich have wanted to “privatize” Social Security and Medicare pretty much since the start of both safety-net programs. They have tried a few times, most memorably after the 2004 presidential election, and every time they did, they got zapped.

I argue that having a Black man as president of white America enraged a portion of this country so much, that they decided to destroy any pipeline to Black advancement in academia, government, & workplaces.
