goddamn, they saw a meme from a guy who juxtaposed Trump's actual heartless comments in relation to an actual shooting in Iowa. Then the sheriff threw him in jail on a terror charge because he's a dumbass who didn't look it up

Andrew Johnson almost literally did the dril "I'm not mad" tweet live from the stump
![Who can come and place his finger on one pledge I ever violated, or one principle I ever proved false to?
CROWD MEMBER: "How about New Orleans?"
ANOTHER CROWD MEMBER: "Hang Jeff. Davis, Hang Jeff-. Davis. Why don't you hang him?"
CROWD: [Cries...] "Give us the opportunity." Have you not got the court? Have you not the Attorney General?'
CROWD MEMBER: "Who is your Chief Justice, who has refused to sit upon the trial?" [Cheers.]
THE PRESIDENT: I am not the Chief Justice. I am not the prosecuting attorney. [Cheers.] I am not the jury. I will tell you what I did do. I called upon your Congress that is trying to break up the government.
CROWD: [Cries of...] "you be d—d" [and cheers mingled with hisses, and great confusion.]
CROWD MEMBER: "Don't get mad Andy."
THE PRESIDENT: Well, I will tell you who is mad—"Whom the Gods wish to destroy they first make mad." Did your Congress order any of them to be tried?'
CROWD: "Three cheers for Congress!"](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ybyde6eyl6aaygkcfsyrqlb2/bafkreigjnisyhyxvtxqderboavjx33uv4l6r733igsmglxc5x33whwd7jq@jpeg)

Looked it up and Caleb Ragland voted for trump, not once--not twice--but three times. Is there any policy that owuld make him specifically lose even more money? I'd support it
![“The frustration is overwhelming,” the American Soybean Association (ASA) president Caleb Ragland said in a statement last week. “U.S. soybean prices are falling, harvest is underway, and farmers read headlines not about securing a trade agreement with China, but that the U.S. government is extending [$20 billion] in economic support to Argentina while that country drops its soybean export taxes to sell 20 shiploads of Argentine soybeans to China in just two days.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ybyde6eyl6aaygkcfsyrqlb2/bafkreibvnvd3lwgq7wig7ypaghl4gkzpzrr7ap3uhlmgluxvx7fq5tlc7u@jpeg)

yeah, I think he self-identified as a social democrat for a while in the 70s. I think the trotsky connection only applies to a few people & for sectarian & other reasons a lot of people on twitter used to go overboard with it. Most neocons, like Kristol were lifelong Republicans

Nobody responsible for terrorizing this little girl holding a baby doll will ever recognize themselves as the badguys in this picture. We need to bring back shame and ostracization for things like this in a big way in our society.

GUY WHO JUST READ A HUGE BOOK ABOUT THE WHIGS: Getting a lot of Whig vibes from this era's Democratic Party
![In the summer, after Fillmore's return, small Whig state conventions also assembled in Virginia, New York, Maine, and Massachusetts. In northern states like Massachusetts and Rhode Island, where a semblance of Whig organization still existed, the purpose of these avowals was "to keep the Whig party from falling into the Fremont current." In the South, where few Whig candidates had been run in 1855 and conversions to the Democrats were soaring in 1856, Whigs insisted "the Whig party [must] be reorganized" to "preserve unimpaired their distinct political character amid the many conflicting organizations by which they are surrounded and sought to be absorbed."'
For admirers of the Whig party, including this historian, these poignant manifestos make for painful reading. They portray the pitiable condition to which the party had been reduced, predict the most pernicious consequences of its demise, and punctuate Whigs' seemingly endless capacity for self-delusion, their pathetic propensity to cling to pie-in-the-sky fantasies in the face of unwelcome realities. One is reminded, indeed, of Granger's cutting remark about the "out of place" Websterites at the 1852 Whig convention who waited "for the sky to fall so that they might catch larks."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ybyde6eyl6aaygkcfsyrqlb2/bafkreigx6r4edqgpwrgpajc5qmow3d5ce4yfyrzomqqcaogdfkazisoytu@jpeg)

You really don't need to cling on to internet microcelebs when they act like this because "they do good work on other issues". btw her "good work on other issues" is mostly just slop like this. She's just a charlatan, you can pretty much just ignore her entirely and be better off

I'm also reasonably certain that the Darryl that Auburn appears to be claiming as a source for their 2004 win is the guy from the Gary Johnson Getting Booed at the Libertarian Convention for Believing in Drivers Licenses video and I'm not kidding about this

edgelords who hide their beliefs through some incoherent mash of keywords they picked up from a series of half-remembered memes have gotta be one of my least favorite people online, and it's really funny when they fuck up this bad and show they got no clue what they're talking about
