The White House is coordinating with the Justice Department to hide its abortion agenda from voters until after they've voted in order to try to influence the results of the election.

“If it can happen to me, it can happen to anyone.” “Do you think Trump will apologize?” “When pigs fly, maybe.” 🐷 🐖 There were no reflecting pool vandals. Trump’s lies are endless.

This administration is fully aware that their goals are unwanted by the vast majority of the nation. That is how republicans have always governed. They do what THEY believe and fk you. After all they are the most indoctrinated people on earth.. how could their beliefs be wrong?

The Republican Party, by investigating the investigators, is attempting to prevent any future investigation of violent insurrection with the intent to prevent any elected official from being seated, thereby ending elections in the U.S. This is what the majority of repub voters want to do.

This is an excellent thread and infuriatingly shows how easy it is for these lies to spread through the right wing echo chamber. Schmitt went right to them to pretend that the humiliation didn’t occur. They even praised him. (One nitpick. Fani Willis’ case didn’t fall apart. It was sabotaged.)

2. Schmitt's story is part of a larger story about the Republicans defending the leader of a coup against an investigation that, as Jack Smith said, "developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in serious crimes against our nation."

1. Let's not say goodbye to Eric Schmitt just yet. His story is about more than a power-mad senator falling on his face. It's part of a larger story about the Republicans defending the leader of an insurrection against the United States.

They might not have time for much reading but there are factual podcasts they could’ve been listening to instead of extremist right wing indoctrination bullshit. also they surely knew trump was immoral, a liar, tried to end elections, and stole Security docs that keep us safe, for his own benefit.

We are seeing long held gop economic policies being fully instituted. They are headed for the goal they’ve held for 60 years. Taxes pay for the military (currently pretty worthless imo). Every other part of society privatized and based on greed like our failed healthcare system.

"What is becoming increasingly clear is that the administration does not see itself as a litigant before the court and does not see its attorneys as bound by court orders. It sees DOJ attorneys as somehow coequal with SCOTUS, the only attorneys in the federal system not bound by ethical rules."

Congress appropriated taxpayer dollars to honor officers killed in the line of duty. Donald Trump used that money for campaign ads. If you need a clearer illustration of who he is and what he values, you won't find one.

The Republican party also rewards lying,theft,corruption, fraud, and adultery. They are not Just a party who looks the other way. They encourage and reward immorality. It is a step on the path to forcing the U.S. to permit rich white males to live without consequence. That is the goal.

Billionaire political spending was about $16 million in 2008. In 2026, it could reach $2–3 billion. Whatever your politics, that’s a staggering shift in who has the financial power to shape American elections.
