I don't think arresting people for treason/insurrection is breaking the law? They did it to his followers but they think some people are above the law

Wrong. Biden made an oath to protect the constitution and he didn't. there sno law that says the president can't direct the DOJ. Korea, Germany and Brazil defended themselves and did not devol e into autocracy, we did by doing nothing.

In the wake of yet another mass shooting, president Trump has mobilized the National Guard to go to the suburbs where these shooters usually come from, authorized the FBI to go after white nationalist extremist groups online, and improved background check requirements.🤡 Of course that's a joke.

The fact that children in America have to live in fear of mass shootings is far more important than Cracker Barrel's corporate logo decisions. But the White House only cares about tackling one of these issues.

In this political hellscape of 2025, nothing dates the original "Running Man" movie more than, at the end, the hero broadcasts a video of the bad guys doing bad things and the implication is it brings down the government.

You don't care that Dems don't want these things when their base does. That's the problem. "Not Trump" isn't a platform

Biden didn't protect the constitution. He moved on when the fire was still burning. You can't just follow precedent in unprecedented circumstances. He let a guy who attempted a coup go. It's negligent on its face and his worst mistake

Ed “Big Balls” Coristine—who worked tech ops for Elon Musk’s DOGE project—is under FBI investigation for data theft. This is the same 19-year-old who was linked to a cybercrime ring earlier this year.

Hey so a lot of these accounts are bots that are actively trying to get people to give up. I've written about this extensively on other platforms, but Doomerism is an emerging tactic that's used by bad actors to get people to give in to despair and do nothing. Pretty common with climate stuff.

Hating anyone to the left of Manchin and trying to win disaffected Republicans has been disastrous. Biden had a .a date from both sides to deal with Trump in 2021 and he squandered it on moving forward without putting out the fire

Not the reason you are losing. It's saying "We want a strong Republican party" having with Liz Cheney and talking bipartisanship after a coup attempt. Dems still think all they have to do is stay quiet. We are the ones who have been right this whole time saying "gloves off"

It’s continues to be despicable how the media has spent a decade normalizing the orange felon so much so that they are reporting on his authoritarian militarization of Washington DC as if it were a routine military exercise. They deliberately failed democracy for clickbait.

I just finished "Fahrenheit 451" by Ray Bradbury. The book shows that people can be more easily controlled if they are stupefied. He supposedly said, "I don't try to describe the future. I try to prevent it."

Dems supported Trump's best friend without conditions in the middle east and it was more important to them than winning the election. He happens to be a far right crook that got everything he wanted from Biden while doing everything he could to get the other guy elected

It’s a very common mistake to assume that candidates, elected officials, and party insiders are paying consultants to tell them how to win when they are actually paying to be told what they want to hear: that the things they already believe and want to do are popular and smart.

The President’s illegal attempt to fire Gov. Lisa Cook from the Federal Reserve is his latest effort to put the economy under his sole personal control. He says it’s about lowering interest rates. Watch. Inevitably it will be about rewarding his donors and punishing his enemies.
