Bart Simpson reacting to Pete Kegsbreath's speech today

Kegsbreath: "Americans want to serve when they are led by strong patriots, not by weak weirdos. Makes sense."

Bart: "What a weak weirdo thing to say."

I think people underestimate how much Zuckburger, Skum, and other parasitic billionaires/authoritarian govs influence discourse on bluesky...and how they're automating/seeding their incessant disinformation from bluesky's open-source firehose (unless I'm misunderstanding how that's implemented).

Jack Smith made it crystal clear that his investigation was sound and lawful, that the president had committed crimes and that the GOP attacks on him were the actual weaponization of our justice system. He showed courage and moral clarity and continues to be one of the heroes of this moment.

Jack Smiths appointment wasn't unconstitutional but Trump occupying federal office as an insurrectionist is. Trump constitutionally disqualified himself & the insurrection continues today -- encapsulating SCOTUS, Cannon, & members of congress. Democrats continue failing to message this adequately.

What Jack Smith said today should be on the cover of every newspaper worldwide. It should be the end of Trump. Unfortunately it’s just a Tuesday in the upside down. And like so many other things that should’ve been the end of him, it barely registers at home let alone abroad.

So abundance is just a Libertarian rebrand? Their greed will never be satiated. Deregulating corporate polluters will directly sink many more ships in the long run than any ships it inadvertently raises. America should focus on an abundance of healthcare & call it something like Medicare for All.

Silicone fascists depend upon their artificial intelligence artificing. Instead of funding their soullessly greedy parasiticness we should invest in the actual super intelligence of teachers/professors/etc. However, that invariably leads to the liberalism our social democratic republic thrives on.

Another way of making this point: The wheels may be coming off the Trump administration and the authoritarian movement energizing it. But a large tractor-trailer barreling down a highway at full speed whose wheels come loose is very dangerous to innocent people in the vicinity.

There's no helping free people from their confidently wrong delusions & mumpsimuses, the more you try the more they will dig down into their confirmation biases. Cognitive dissonance demands that the comforts of their delusion persists in deluding them. So how does one help others free themselves?

Trump's steal the election insurrection began w/fake elector scheme, racketeering, find the votes calls, big lie rallies & Roger Stone organizing w/fake militias Since no legal remedy for inciters/aiders/comforters has been found #TheInsurrectionContinues, the 14th amendment offers the only relief
A picture of Trump shaking hands with Chief Justice Roberts during his second inauguration except Trump is constitutionally disqualified from occupying the office of President due to his inciting and engaging in insurrection. The text over Trump reads:

Inciter of insurrection who retains insurrection status until Congress takes a 2/3 majority vote to remove that status 

The text over Roberts reads:
Insurrectionist who provided aid and comfort to inciter of insurrection

The text over their handshake reads:

A political cartoon by JD Crowe of the Alabama Media Group.

It shows a white man wearing judges robes and a red GOP baseball cap standing in more than waist-deep water. In his left arm he is clutching a book with “SAVE ACT” on the cover while pushing a woman into the water with his right hand. The woman is screaming, visibly resisting this ominous false salvation. There are two text bubbles from the lawless vote suppressor, yelling “I’M JUST TRYING TO SAVE YOU” followed by a thought bubble that says “FROM VOTING”.
