The Distance Between Renee Good and Ashli Babbitt Is Fascism
It’s not a hypocrisy. It’s a coherent worldview.

I would like to promote a conclave type notification signal daily. Black smoke comes out of the WH chimney if Trump wakes up. White smoke if he doesn’t.

The head of the executive branch is a bankrupt, 34 count felon, an adjudicated rapist and a dementia patient. Any one of these should have been a deal breaker.

The power exhibited by Mamdani in this scene is staggering. It’s easy to see why there might be Epstein videos of Trump on his knees.

The most important thing to remember about all this fantasy-engineering of the Constitution is Madison's warning: If we suck as a people, no clever constitutional schemes will save us.

This is a perfect example of a narcissistic response. A man who couldn’t compete with a women so instead of self reflection, he blames women for his failures. It can’t be that he wasn’t skilled enough, it must mean the system is rigged against him. Must be MAGA.

They have the author of “The Art of the Deal” in the WH. He is a self proclaimed “Jenius”. Johnson can call the house in session at any time. These Epstein files must be an epic tale of power, rape & human trafficking by the wealthiest men in the world.

Democrats should never vote to fund a government that's waging war on its own citizens and firing officials *because* they insist on following court orders instead of breaking the law. Let Senate Republicans nuke the filibuster. None of this is normal and it shouldn't be treated as such.

The irony of this is all those billionaires who think Trump is good for business is finding out he is actually a malignant cancer on it. After all, he has gone bankrupt 6 times. And people think these people are smart.

JUST IN: Senate Republicans defeated Chuck Schumer’s amendment to mandate release of the Epstein files. Only two Republicans, Rand Paul and Josh Hawley, voted with Democrats. What are they trying to hide from the American people?

Hard to take seriously the red-white-and-blue rhetoric of freedom on a 4th of July where the US president has cut off aid to a democracy fighting for its independence against ferocious attack by a foreign tyrant.

Iran’s stockpile dropped to 0 after Obama made the Iran Deal… until Trump pulled out of it (against the advice of his own Defense Secretary, General Mattis… because he hated Obama) Feels pretty relevant in this moment.

Conservatives used to say that character mattered. Bragging about grabbing women by the “pussy” used to matter. So did sedition, fraud, graft, and chronic lying. Ten years on, they are our daily companions, and we almost numb to it. Ten years on, nothing matters. open.substack.com/pub/charlies...

You can make all those reforms if you show up and vote for them in local and state elections, which too many people ignored for too long. State houses are repositories of popular power but too many people just don't pay attention to them.
