It is the far-flung year of 2026. TARIFFPOCALYPSE is total. All products are distributed within a mile radius of where they were made. The DOGE-King rules in the South, where the streets are paved with crypto (ie, there are no streets). Immortan Trump appears once a day to shout a made-up word.

Dems are so eager to jump on this as “the fight” because they don’t want to fight for anything where they actually have to stake any risk. This is just making more excuses for their inaction. The constitution doesn’t exist anymore! Why in the pluperfect hell are we still playing by the rules?

Sure but I need you to go one step further - WHY is it standard practice to avoid such language? The answer is something that absolutely does not apply to the leader of a fascist takeover or his Nazi cronies. What a dumbass thing to attempt to hide behind.

if you say democracy is at stake and respond with business as usual, the question is: were you lying then, or are you lying now?
After Green interrupted last night, another Democrat should have done the same thing. And then another, until all of them had to be removed. Delay the speech by a few hours. Or walk out en masse. Anything.

Calling Trump an existential threat means nothing if you can’t meet the fucking moment.

Sitting there with your little paddles and not leaving or interrupting this bullshit only grants it the veneer of normalcy.

This isn’t normal. And if you value decorum over the lives of trans people, over the destruction of democracy, go find another job. We don’t need you.

Now that musk is saying he’s doing the DOGE stuff “because the globalists have plotted a Great Replacement in which they use government handouts to buy votes from illegal immigrants and urban blacks” maybe we don’t have to act like this is about deficits or cost cutting anymore

This is why you fight these cowards.

The moment you stand up to them, they crumble.

Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights.

He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

This is what’s so funny about rainbow capitalism and corporate blackface: it was never real, actual support but the right and the left can’t help but lose their minds over the fake pendulum swinging. It’s like betting on theatre.

Not that it matters but SpaceX fraudulently submitted faked and incomplete test results to TCEQ and EPA last year, which is a felony that they used to put people in prison for, and the EPA ignored it.

folks really need to accept that "lawful" and "lawless" don't matter, what matters is being able to marshal and deploy force (force of capital, the force of arms, the force of a crowd...) none of the people running the country right now give a good goddamn about the law
Reminder: this is completely lawless

if the president can say “i don’t like the department of energy,” and within a week it’s closed, then the constitution means nothing, and the president’s entire claim to power is the loyalty of the military. either he is constrained by the constitution or he’s a dictator, there isn’t a middle ground

people should probably stop listening to anything these democratic strategists have to say considering where their strategies have gotten us
Very serious Democratic strategists advise the party to allow Trump to illegally dismantle USAID -- a decision that will result in the unnecessary deaths of people around the world.

Seeing a blatant fascist dismantling and takeover of the government and using it as an opportunity to mostly complain about the left or throw trans people under the bus means you're helping them. No other way to slice it.

Musk has been tweeting for days about how his dweebs have been working all weekend while Congress has just clocked out. On top of everything else, he's mocking them for being invisible. At very least go yell at him so nobody thinks you're that afraid of a little overtime
Democrats can confront these DOGE dorks in person. Demand they speak to the actual people responsible for appropriations. Livestream it. If they call the cops, get arrested on live on YouTube. If you're going to be EO'd out of existence, at least go down fighting.
