"I stopped paying even a modicum of attention 8 years ago and now I don't understand what's happening" is not a reasonable complaint

Just a reminder: The Attorney General is not supposed to be the President's lawyer; they're the people's lawyer.

Harris made the fascism case against Trump, citing Milley and Mattis and with help from Liz Cheney, and if anything it hurt her in the polls. It just doesn’t land as a real concern to many voters. (To be clear, it’s a real concern to me!)
Of course I’m glad Gaetz went down, & my fingers are crossed that Hegseth will follow—nobody as Christian nationalist as him has ever been this close to power. But I’m troubled that the only way to stop them is via their alleged sex crimes. Fascism is apparently not a problem.

Wasn’t there some woman from California who was running for something who told us this was going to happen
President-elect Trump and his allies disavowed the conservative Project 2025 during the election.

Now, his transition team is turning to Project 2025 to help staff the next administration, sources tell @nbcnews.com.

I can’t tell you how different it is on X now after so many people have left. I have always followed mostly right-wing accounts because I cover them, and they are running out of people to pick fights with. So they’re just mostly fighting with each other.

Yes, Joe Biden has approved the use of long range missiles and land mines, but until he approves the hacking of Russian radio and playing Lara Trump songs on a loop, I'm not sure he's serious about helping Ukraine win this war.

A Trump supporting, anti-trans, anti-gay Republican was elected commissioner of the county where I grew up. He won despite being in jail on election night for a sexual assault in Vegas.

It’s now come out that the woman he assaulted was his daughter.

They spent the past few weeks telling us to leave Twitter, and then they come here to harass?

Nobody has time for that shit.

A lot of folks are giving up in advance. Capitulating before a single skirmish.

Well, not this old warrior. I’ve seen much worse from the U.S. government in my day. I’m concerned for our country, but not a bit scared of these miscreants. I’m ready to do my part.

Who’s with me?

Just my 2 cents. But my goal is to ignore the trolls. Give them zero attention. Block them if they annoy me.

I think the worst thing we can do on this site is re-create the ad hominem/ personal attacks that occur across comments on Twitter/insta/tiktok/ etc
