I get the appeal of the "chickens come home to roost" perspective, but when it comes to CRIMINAL accountability, why would ANY of these corrupt traitors not just laugh if/when they're issued subpoenas by a Dem Cngrss, given that they KNOW Trump's DOJ will NEVER enforce them? bsky.app/profile/theb...

100% honest question. Why should Kushner or the head of any company have ANY concern whatsoever that they will have to testify before Cngrss if Dems have control in 2027/2028 when Trump's DOJ will be setting so many subpoenas on fire that they won't need winter heating? bsky.app/profile/theb...

The real worry is not the next two years, but the 2-4 after that. If this is a bellwether, we are never going to get the real, serious, major institutional reform that we need to make sure that this era of lawless authoritarianism doesn't happen again, even if we get a Democratic president in 2029.

We are a broken nation. Hundreds of thousands of Haitians were living and working legally, paying taxes, and contributing. Haiti remains wholly unsafe. But Trump hates Haitians, and the White House wanted videos of Black people in chains, so they stripped them of status and turned on the cameras.

The fact that Trump has only mostly destroyed the entire constitutional order & is ruling as a competitive authoritarian executive after only 6 years in office proves that people warning about authoritarianism in 2016 were overly alarmist. Do you even hear yourself, my man?

There are two theories that work with respect to this issue. First is the idea that any pardon that's sold is null and void. The second is the theory that a President cannot pardon individuals who were coconspirators with them to conduct criminal, illegal activity. Thus, the second theory would 1/3

300 Senators. 100 from rural areas, where 1/3 of the US population lives. 200 from the urban areas, where 2/3 of the US population lives. Equal state representation, proportional to population. No more wildly anti-democratic & unequaled malapportionment in the upper chamber of parliament.

In all seriousness, they've been doing this for years (remember Roger Stone saying that if Trump wasn't POTUS in 2016 there'd be a "bloodbath") and the real question is why officials refused to enforce accountability and still refuse to do so. But that requires having a memory and doing research.
