Americans (myself included) tend to laugh off the Trump noises about annexing Canada as obvious nonsense, but the rest of the world is taking the threat seriously.
Our media should reflect that reality and hold him accountable for the serious damage he’s causing.

You can watch Christiane Amanpour realize in real time on CNN just how seriously Canadians are taking the annexation threats.

Watch this clip, folks 👇 Does Bannon sound like he's joking about Trump becoming dictator for life? Because he isn't.
Bannon: "The future of MAGA is Donald Trump! We want Trump in '28. That's what they can't stand. A man like Trump comes along only once or twice in the country's history. We want Trump! We want Trump!"

Consider this:
The Senate has just voted to confirm Kash Patel as FBI Director in a narrow 51-47 majority.
Trump nominee Chris Wray passed 92-5.
Only Rand Paul voted against James Comey.
Robert Mueller was confirmed 98-0.
Patel is historically unqualified & we are not safe!

How Hitler seized power:
1. Create a crisis.
2. Demonize opponents.
3. Declare a state of emergency.
4. Undermine elections.
5. Make the rule of law irrelevant.
6. Rule by decree.
If America falls it will be because of the people who didn’t pay attention.

They want you to feel exactly the way you do, though. They want you to think that nothing you do will matter, because they want you to stay home.
If they could rig elections, they wouldn’t spend so much time trying to suppress the vote. Ignore the noise and vote these MFs out in 26.

Here’s the switchboard number for the House 202-225-3121 and the Senate 202-224-3121. You don’t need to make a speech. Just tell your reps yes or no on a particular vote. It’s that simple. They DO keep tallies, but they can’t read your minds. Calling & writing is like voting. Get in the habit.
Believe it or not, emailing/faxing your representatives to say "I am deeply unhappy about this for the following reasons" gives them ammunition to use on the floor. They quote constituent letters all the time. It won't do squat if he declares martial law + shreds the constitution but here we are

It's a sickening double-standard to support men who have sexually abused women and then cry about being the victim of those types of men.
"Nancy Mace explains on a weekly basis that she was the victim of sexual assault... but she also breathlessly supports someone like Donald Trump, who is an adjudicated rapist and was credibly accused of sexual assault by 26 different women. So the cognitive dissonance at play here is incredible."
