Gotta say, y'all knocked it out of the park on the descriptions in this chapter. Very evocative! Hope the stretch-goals will add some more cults in, they're very fun.

Guess they should've thought about that before stealing from all those authors, huh?

They've had MONTHS in power to cover-up, redact, destroy - were they really that unable to hide these files?
I had a hard time believing Epstein kept detailed records on who did what and when, but the more there's smoke, the more I think there's a fire...

But....but you're not standing for them. You literally folded. You were holding the line TO LOWER HEALTHCARE COSTS and you caved. Everyone was already on the record because you were communicating clearly that the shutdown was to get those ACA subsidies and we knew who was for and against...

"Why can't we all just work together?" Fuckin' genius! Can't believe none of us thought of that before! What a novel goddamn idea except that the Republicans are political and cultural arsonists!

How many times do you need to be burned before you realize they will never ever act in good faith. This is a catastrophic mistake, snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. I will gladly vote for your primary challenger (and there will be one) if you vote for this

If food prices always go up, then a minimum wage increase on a regular basis so folks can continue to eat seems like a no-brainer....of course they're against that too

I mean, I think it's worth considering that they actually are Republicans. They're sure doing the work of trying to shift everything to the Right and ensure Democrats keep losing...

Ok, but it's not a fuckin' invasion or anything. The healthcare plan doesn't need to be kept secret - they should be promoting it in order to get voters behind them. The only reason to keep it secret is because it doesn't exist.

The answer, as it has been for months, is a plan. People are willing to get up, get out in the streets, put their energy towards something, but there's no actionable plan. The people we've chosen to lead the opposition haven't actually come up with meaningful action for people to take...

Used to think there's no way Epstein was dumb enough to keep detailed records, but the longer they fight this the more I think there must be something there, and it must be so catastrophic it's impossible to cleanly edit it out. They've certainly had plenty of time...

Is there another candidate offering these policies and ideals?
Like, I get it, there's plenty of time to find another option, and the folk of Maine probably should, but people might be sticking with Platner because Mills isn't offering the same things.

I dunno, if I were the Republicans, "the President wasn't quite aware of everything so everything he signed is null and void" is not a precedent I think they'd wanna set....

Counterpoint: Dismantle the organization, investigate any and all violations of rights, and prosecute to the fullest extent the law allows. Salt the earth and warn away anyone who tries it again

And we're gonna get there by gutting Medicaid, Medicare, the VA, the ACA, the CDC, HHS, and obliterating all science and research funding...
They're so bad. They're so, SO bad at pretending to know what the fuck they're doing.

Hey America - just a thought here...what if we just got rid of this Medicare Medicaid ACA marketplace fight altogether. Let's just do a government-run universal healthcare and we just never ever have to hear another argument out of these ghouls about it again.

"Palpable dread" over Mamdani, but armed masked unidentified thugs disappearing anyone they feel like with no due process?
These people are not to be taken seriously. Shame we give them all guns and nearly unchecked power

All it took to turn the media into a fascism-consent-factory was some Conservatives calling them "left-leaning" for a couple decades. Too afraid of bad-faith claims of bias to actually defend the fucking truth.

Political arsonist. Nothing he won't sacrifice to avoid even the slightest compromise. "Give me 100% of what I asked for or I'll burn it all down".

War powers should never have been abdicated to the President, and the slow creep of "limited strikes", "enforcement operations" and other cover-terms for military action has allowed the Executive to steal power that should've stayed with the People. Fear it's too late to claw it back now

Altogether way too much of "I didn't see it/I haven't read it". What the hell are these politicians doing that they're not seeing, hearing, or reading what the administration is doing? Stop letting them use that as a deflection, it's obviously untrue!
