This is the playbook, folks.

If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.

Do not be quiet in this moment.

Republicans sure are pulling out all the stops to wield the government against Texas Democrats. Warrants, FBI, court processes. Not a second wasted. Goes to show that if they *wanted* to bring Epstein's clients to justice, they could. They just don't want to.

2h ♡ Brad T. Faciti @BadFaithAct Replying to @TheBagsters I do have daughters, and they both know that what you're describing is absolutely not okay. I have said it again, that if Trump did it, it is very bad. You need to separate this from the fact that he is the best president saving America, and we need to keep him there. 10 ♡ A & 2h Bonnie Parker#Fellarina Replying to @BadFaithAct and @TheBagsters WOULD YOU STILL SUPPORT TRUMP IF HE RAPED YOUR DAUGHTERS??? 1 11 A & Brad T. Faciti @BadFaithAct Follow Replying to @StrawberrixGirl and @TheBagsters If Trump did that to my daughters, forgiving him would break me. But Jesus calls me to forgive, as He forgave me. I'd need His strength every day. It would be the hardest, holiest act of love I could ever choose. But I would still politically support him as my president, yes. 11:07 am 09 Jul 25

Since May:

Federal district courts have ruled against Trump admin 94% of the time.

Supreme Court has sided with the Trump admin 94% of the time.

A judiciary at war with itself.
Bar chart titled “The Supreme Court vs. The Lower Courts: Rulings on the Trump Administration” showing three horizontal bar charts for May 1-June 23, 2025. Federal District Courts: large red bar (82 cases, 94.3% against) with tiny green bar (5 cases, 5.7% for). Circuit Courts of Appeal: medium red bar (15 cases, 68.2% against) with smaller green bar (7 cases, 31.8% for). Supreme Court: tiny red bar (1 case, 6.3% against) with large green bar (15 cases, 93.7% for). Shows dramatic reversal from lower courts ruling against Trump administration to Supreme Court ruling for it.

Why is the Daddy Party allowed to rant & rave & do impulsive, stupid shit & never, ever be held to account, while the Mommy Party is endlessly scolded & lectured & second-guessed by everyone, even when it is earnestly trying to do the right thing?

Gosh. What a puzzler.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

This letter appeared in the Bloomsburg PA Press Enterprise this morning. I am assured the writer is who he purports to be, an Air Force veteran.

Wow: JD Vance is apparently skiing in Vermont this weekend and the locals aren’t having it. Thousands have lined the streets in protest.
