Here are some choice quotes from Jack Smith’s testimony about the conspiracy to overturn the results of the 2020 election.

“..the evidence made clear that President Trump was by a large measure the most culpable and most responsible person in this conspiracy.”

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased.

Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power.

Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable.

But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.

Remember this.

Easy to get pardoned by Trump. Just give him something, ideally money but lavish praise - vows of undying loyalty - this for that’ or quid pro quo.

There’s a special place in hell for an undereducated man explaining why formula isn’t good…NEWS FLASH- FED IS BEST. Some babies can nurse and some moms can’t breast feed and that’s the brilliance of formula. Get this idiot off the stage
RFK Jr: "All of the ingenuity of corporate America has not produced an infant formula that is superior in nutrition and all the qualities that we want to the infant formula that God made, which is the infant formula in a mother's breast."

Murphy continues to be a really clear voice
We are fast becoming a banana republic, with two standards of justice. If you oppose the leader, you go to jail just for speech. If you're a loyalist, you get immunity for your crimes.

That's what happens in Iran - not the United States. This is a decision moment for America.

This is what happens when a bunch of spoilt, entitled, nepo babies who have never been held accountable for anything are given total power. They just bend reality and truth to suit their own deranged, narcissistic view of the world

One of Trump's first actions was to pardon Jan 6 insurrections.

He offered a “get out of jail free” card to people who committed violence on his behalf.  

And he continues to spew hateful rhetoric towards his political opponents.

This will only fuel more violence.

We won’t amplify it, but the president posting that Dems are “sick of mind” and “hate our country” immediately after 2 Dem lawmakers and their spouses were shot in their homes is the opposite of leadership. Gas on the fire.
