HAPPENING NOW: Thousands have flooded the streets of D.C. for the “Remove the Regime” rally.

Crowds are chanting “IMPEACH, CONVICT, REMOVE” and “LOCK HIM UP.”

The "peace president" threatens to execute people who object to his war crimes.
The correct answer to MAGA outrage over the Dem video is this: Are you effing kidding me? Of course it's reasonable to warn that Trump might be giving illegal orders.

The evidence is strong that he actually is giving illegal orders! I went through that evidence here:

Is Trump Giving Illegal Orders? Dems Just Blew That Question Wide Open
From the boat bombings to deportations to prosecutions, the evidence mounts. And the speaker of the House could get to the bottom of it if he wanted to. Yeah, right.

Democrats say some big things, but they refuse to put a blanket hold on nominees or otherwise shut down the business of government until the coup that is plainly occurring is stopped. Turns out you should always get your spinal surgery before an authoritarian takeover. We are on our own.

The ACA did 3 big things in the insurance market:

1. Guaranteed access irrespective of pre-existing conditions.

2. Required benefits like maternity and mental health, and prohibited lifetime and annual limits.

3. Provided tax credits to help people afford insurance.

I don't want to distract from Zohran Mamdani's incredible and historic achievement, but Andrew Cuomo is one of the vilest politicians in either party in recent memory. He deserves humiliation. He deserves to live in infamy and shame. He deserves to live in Florida.

AND, just a reminder:

Undocumented workers have paid billions into Social Security

But, NEVER receive it

A fact that MAGAts would know if they watched something other than FOX

It seems they may not fully grasp the seriousness of the situation. Their challenges with understanding macro awareness environments make them vulnerable to potential exploitation.

this is why i think that successfully prosecuting trump would have ended trumpism. what he is selling -- especially this second time around -- is the same fantasy of utter impunity which Doug Wilson has substituted for Christianity.
Could not be clearer that we’re in a moment of almost universal elite rebellion against any kind of restriction or limit. You saw this shift in all the rhetoric too; Trump I was all about the little guy but everyone dropped that and started talking about grindset and being “aristocratic.”
one interesting thing is the collapse of mass support for trump before he took office. his in-person events were sparsely attended. his conventional fundraising (donations in the dollar to thousand dollar range) was more or less nonexistent.

Trump I was a grassroots phenomenon. Trump II was elite.

so if Barron is Ivanka's son as 'someone' has it, exactly who was his paternal sperm donor? it's perhaps not the 'nicest' implied word scrambled but gee, what if?

Just before he leaves office Epstump will pardon everyone in his administration who has broken, at his behest, the law or peoples' heads.

The more they avoid questions about Trump being in the Epstein files, the more we know he is a fixture in the Epstein files.
