If Democratic politicians do not fight this because it's a "distraction," it will simply happen. They need to get in front of every mic and say that we will not allow Trump to destroy American history. He wants a culture war? GIVE HIM ONE. There are no distractions. Have every fight.

Never thought I’d be creating family rules like “Never flush someone else’s potty without asking them first.”
But this is what happens when kids scream “I WANTED TO FLUSH IT!!!!!! 😭“ at each other.

“In 2020, the government pointed to Maxwell’s “willingness to brazenly lie under oath about her conduct” as a reason to deny her bail. Now, with her entire life in the government’s control, it turns to her as a source of truth. Or, if not truth, a story that can help the president out of this jam…”

A lot of Democrats warned about these exact things because they were in Project 2025. A lot of the press dismissed them and then reported Trump had “nothing to do with Project 2025” and “disavowed” it. (Instead of just flatly saying he was lying because of course he was!)

Trump is already defying the courts.
He has no more right to defy a district court than the Supreme Court.
Essentially saying all lower court rulings are optional for Trump is legally incorrect and irresponsible.

Schumer: "If he defies the Supreme Court, then we are in uncharted territory ... our entire democracy is at risk. I believe that if Donald Trump should defy the courts, the public will rise up. Democrats will fight it in every single way ... autocrats only succeed if the public lets them."

Ukraine shouldn't have dressed like this if it didn't want to be assaulted.
Witkoff: "The war didn't need to happen. It was provoked. It doesn't necessarily mean it was provoked by the Russians. There were all kinds of conversations back then about Ukraine joining NATO. That didn't need to happen. It basically became a threat to the Russians."

Never once felt like the culture was telling me I'm a bad person because I like to tell a joke and have a beer with my friends. They just make shit up and somehow people believe it. As a white male, I've never once felt "suppressed." Fear mongering nonsense.
JD Vance: "Our culture sends a message to young men that you should suppress every masculine urge ... my message to young men is don't allow this broken culture to send you a message that you're a bad person bc you're a man, bc you like to tell a joke, bc you like to have a beer with your friends."
