In this age of Trump, Democrats have pretty fucking consistently not met the moment. They’ve been weak. Afraid to fight. They’ve pretty consistently been pussies. And if you’d like an example of what I mean, none better than this weak, timid take by David Axelrod.

Attacks by settlers in the occupied West Bank are increasingly driving the forced displacement of Palestinian communities, with dozens at risk of erasure. Israeli authorities are arming, funding, and granting impunity to the violent settlers responsible for deadly abuses. bit.ly/4ggF4kp

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts. Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

“The Democratic Party is back?” No, Mr Minority Leader, DEMOCRATIC VOTERS ARE PISSED OFF. That’s the lesson from yesterday. Dem voters, not the Dem Party, carried the day yesterday. And it’s been this way since Trump won. Dem voters understand this moment. The Party doesn’t.

Millions of Americans marched against the US invading Iraq under the false pretence of weapons of mass destruction. How many Americans will march against the US invading itself under the false pretence of domestic terrorism?

Either The American People Care About His Lawlessness & Corruption, Or They Don’t. It’s That Simple
Trump made very clear during the 2024 election that if elected, he was going to go after his political opponents. Retribution was going to be his focus. And that’s what he’s doing. And he’s taken over the Justice Department to do it. And we can blame Trump and his enablers for allowing this fascism to happen. But the real fault lies with the American people. Trump said he would do this but too many Americans just didn’t care.
