There will be no resistance. The GOP Senate is a party of bootlickers without a spine among them. Some will posture and whine, but they all get in line in the end.

No, we need to hold these people to account. They were fair weather voices during this last election and look where it got us. We don’t need to bend. They need to be consistent.

Am I a fraud or do I just need to go to sleep? Jokes aside, imposter syndrome must suck.

Cops blaming the victims.

Oh great! A piece pitting two women against each other in the year 2024, almost 2025. This is what we are covering NYT?

Meanwhile many die from denied care or excess of expense by these same institutions.

You say ship of Theseus, I say destined evolution. Conservative politics and laissez faire economics are inherently unsatisfying to the masses. They need something else to hate other than the elites. This sort of outgrowth was inevitable so they can keep doing what they have been.

It would be a mistake to not take Trump and his cronies as an inevitable outgrowth of conservatism. They are from that tradition. Nixon to Regan to religious right to tea party to MAGA. Here we are.

True. Any strategy like that would require dems to have both the threshold for impeachment in the house, conviction in the senate (of both president and vp) and a democrat speaker of the house. These are conditions that are currently untenable and have not been met. Need to focus on what is doable.

When they lost that lawsuit they should have had to air their shows with a big watermark over the screen that said: NOT REAL NEWS.

That’s an omen
