Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.
Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

I know I’m a libtard but I think it’s bad the U.S. president keeps calling for the killing of specific sitting elected officials who didn’t even commit crimes

The House takes 2 months off & finally reports back to work & promptly spends the next week filing censure motions against each other & attending black tie dinners w/Saudis while the clock counts down for 24 million people to have their health insurance premiums spike in 42 days.

Johnson is trying to hold out until after the 12/2 special Congressional election in TN, where the heavily favored Republican candidate has already said he would not vote to release the Epstein files.

REPUBLICANS WOULD RATHER STARVE EVERYDAY AMERICANS THAN PROSECUTE RICH PEDOPHILES. Apparently so would some Senate Dems.

Yes. But they are missing that much of this has to be performative. That’s what Trump is great at and Dems are awful at.
You can’t just tell voters , you have to know how to sell voters.
Trump gives sales pitches, Dems show charts. One goes viral. The other is ignored and forgotten

PLEASE REMEMBER:
trump's win percentage is shaping up to be the third SMALLEST in history.
He does NOT have a mandate, no matter what he says.
That means we push back against every single batshit crazy policy he tries to pass.
EVERYTHING.

This is why Trump spent the past 4 years conditioning us to dismiss election fraud claims. His accusations = confession.

Once again, Trump avoids any consequences for his actions. “Oh yes, sir, you have committed 34 felonies but instead of receiving any sort of punishment whatsoever, instead, here are the nuclear codes.”
Nobody is holding him accountable. We are completely screwed.

This should terrify every American. It doesn’t matter where you stand on immigration. Using our military as a domestic law enforcement tool at mass scale will destroy its core purpose, turn the American people against them, and damage the institution for decades.

Right now, everything seems terrifying, dark & hopeless. Thanksgiving should be warm, joyful, filled with gratitude. So while I am still mad as hell and fighting, I do want to take a moment to highlight some things that we still do have to be thankful for. ACLU.org, Planned Parenthood, NAACP…more?

I actually think he spent 4 years screaming “stop the steal” because he was plotting to steal this election that whole time. Every conservative accusation is a confession. He had motive, means, opportunity. Read this: change.org/election-integrity-2024
