Starting a phony transgender bathroom debate and hiding behind the guise of “protecting women” to distract from your attempts to push through the confirmations of alleged rapists, sex traffickers, and fraudsters at the highest levels of government is peak Republican Party.

Once again, Republicans are showing that they have no interest in governing. They are a party devoid of any substance other than to hold onto power. They have no platform per se other to fundraise off of fearmongering.
We should be disgusted by House Republicans and their attacks on Rep McBride. We must not stand back and allow these attacks on the trans community.

Imagine if all democrats talked like and had the strength of @aoc.bsky.social
"If a woman doesn't look woman enough to a Republican, they want to be able to inspect your genitals to use a bathroom? It's disgusting.

Everyone should reject it completely... they're endangering women, they're endangering girls of all kind, and everyone should reject it. It's gross." - AOC

Tale old as time: GOP messes up economy; Dems clean it up; GOP takes credit for Dems economy; media and public fall for it; rinse and repeat.
"Joe Biden and Kamala Harris could not sell voters on the strength of the economy. Now, Donald Trump is poised to enter the White House with booming markets and solid growth. Expect him to reap the political rewards." www.politico.com/news/2024/11...
The Biden economy is about to get a new salesman: Donald Trump
Trump hammered the administration for creating an “economic catastrophe,” but some of his favorite gauges for assessing economic performance have been humming.

Just because he isn't subject to their jurisdiction doesn't mean the House cannot release the Gaetz report. Don't let the GOP play the helpless victim here.

Tell Johnson to release the report!

I'm sure this Cabinet of inexperienced grifters who excel solely at advancing their own careers will produce an administration that runs like a well-oiled machine.

As we move forward, please remember that this is temporary. Attached is the 1984 electoral map, and a dem was in office 8 years later.
It can, and will, get better.

What in the fresh hell is this? Now we know why Trump is pushing so hard for recess appointments. What a goon squad.
Matt Gaetz is Trump’s pick for Attorney General.

The upside is that they’ll own every bit of everything that happens from here on out

The downside is that it’s going to be like living in a Hieronymus Bosch painting

I’m ready for the circular firing squad to end and the rebuilding to begin. We have a long four years ahead and we need to be ready to fight TFG and his cadre of kooks, goons and maniacs.

If you're unhappy and unsettled by Trump's election, don't quit. That's just what they want you to do.

But that doesn't mean you have to do everything the same. Your media and social media habits, for example.

Here's what I'm doing to stay sane, and set myself up to handle what's to come.
Authoritarians Want You To Quit
Don't withdraw entirely, but it's OK to partially disengage. The future will be tough, and you're in better position to fight if you stay sane. Here's how I'm adjusting.
