I bet they don't teach Fourthbranch in the schools
If you can’t see a straight line running from Bush and Cheney arguing with straight faces that the Vice President is not part of the Executive Branch to Trumpism I can’t help you.

An early little meme I invented back in the blog days was calling Dick Cheney Fourthbranch, which I believe was a play on a short-lived Taco Bell campaign named Fourthmeal. This was after he claimed he was neither part of the executive or legislative branch and so didn't need to turn over records.

Not for me. I dare say GWB was worse for the country than DJT, because his (and Dick "Fourthbranch" Cheney's) maladministration opened the door to Trump as a possibility, on many levels.
Something I think about his how thoroughly George W Bush has disappeared from the American consciousness and history. He didn’t quite have a Trump-level of cultish devotion on the right, but pretty close! He was a Great Man of History.

She was thinking about running for President

The idea that either Fourthbranch or his foul spawn holds actual principles unrelated to the pursuit of power is ludicrous

She feels a dictator should have some dignity. Like her father, Generalissimo Fourthbranch.

lol she is parading around with Fourthbranch. Harris only wants the fascist vote

Fourthbranch is a racist fascist, and he endorsed Harris. It's not that it's Harris's fault that Orange Man is Orange Man; it's that there's no meaningful difference between the two.

Once you're pro-genocide, tax cuts don't mean a lot.

I have yet to read it, of course, but... First? What about Fourthbranch Cheney? They didn't parade it the way Elon does, but still.

lol I'm so old I remember when libs used to pretend they thought genocide and Fourthbranch were both bad
October 26, 2024 at 2:26 PM
I'm pretty sure libs are pro Iraq War now. cf: HRC, Biden, Fourthbranch

Every single one of them will be back during the post-election lawsuits.

Libs like what they like. Just as Orange Man Bad made libs love Fourthbranch, so too will the next fascist make libs love Orange Man.

Corporate media…what was that about fearmongering and Project2025? #independentmedia #freepress #fourthbranch

Libs don't object to Trump. Libs love Trump for giving them permission to love Fourthbranch and Dobbs.

Isaiah Taylor is one of the tech bros who came (from Doug Wilson’s cult in Moscow Idaho) to El Segundo to start a thing they the Peter Thiel babies call “ The Gundo”, which will be gutted of all environmental regulations. Choice between man or bee? I pick the bee.

Fourthbranch has a posse
October 22, 2024 at 10:11 PM
This is so so so sad. National Democrats use Republican evil keep us precarious and frightened so as to fundraise from our worry and misery.

cf: Dobbs, letting the Federalist Society win, Harris campaigning with Fourthbranch
October 22, 2024 at 2:55 PM
Libs worship wealth as surely as their conservative bffs do. This will be forgotten as surely as libs forgot they were supposed to hate Fourthbranch.

OMG this is a verbatim quote, WTF.

JV Dance has some nerve calling Dick Cheney "dumb." Does Ol' Fourthbranch still have his man-sized safe to stuff this nincompoop into?
Vance: I empathize with Americans who are exhausted after 25 years of foreign entanglements in the Middle East. I understand the concern, but the difference is that back then we had dumb presidents

Then came Mr. Fourthbranch, Dick Cheney!
