Only in America could a Ketamine-infused South African oligarch call a navy captain, astronaut and sitting US senator "a traitor" for supporting our allies and standing up to Russia...

I shared someone else's take on this earlier but I can't get it out of my head what an unbelievably bad tweet this is. We elected people to fight for us, not just throw up their hands and let democracy slip away.

He literally took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution on Monday.

Since then, he's tried to overrule 14A (birthright citizenship) and is now challenging 22A (terms limits for the president).

Seems odd.

Dems would get much more traction finding and promoting people saying what they know and experience.

What has more impact, This man speaking his mind or the Dems speaking “in unison “ ?
You guys need to see this and take it in…

Wise words from someone who is a target. And he’s been listening.

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it.

It’s amazing to me that politicians don’t commit to post first on @bsky.app and to engage with constituents here

THIS is more powerful than CNN , MSNBC, The Post will ever be.

You can broadcast for 9 mins on a declining medium, or engage here and start a real discussion.

Which is more powerful?

Remember those speeches by Merrick Garland where he assured us, “No one is above the law”?

Yeah…bullshit.

Merrick Garland is leaving a legacy saying, "Okay, yeah...some people are above the law. But wasn't that a good speech?!"

President Biden, laid it down:

- 18 year term limit for SCOTUS
- No stock trading for Congress
- No immunity for Presidents for crimes they commit in office, because that's bullshit

THAT PART! 🔥🔥🔥

Donald Trump has nominated _his own personal attorneys_ for the _top three positions_ at DOJ.

Where is the outrage from the legal community? From academia? From the media?

Trump is a man who has repeatedly says he has a right to control all DOJ operations and to treat DOJ as his personal law firm.
