I am sick and tired of hearing about Trump’s “retribution.” It’s pure vendetta, and that’s what it should be called.

The Justice Department is now identical to Russia’s Prosecutor General’s Office and our FBI is like Russia’s FSB security services. Now Americans will see how justice is carried out in Russia. I call it the Kremlinization of America’s justice system.

If John Bolton has been wrongly targeted by the FBI, I am pretty sure he’ll regret not having testified in the 2021 impeachment trial.

I so wish someone (legal scholar? political expert?) would tell us just how Trump can be held accountable for outright ignoring the Constitution and Supreme Court rulings!!! www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Trump says ‘I don’t know’ when asked if he’s required to uphold Constitution
The president also downplayed fears of a recession and spoke of potential successors when his four-year term ends in an NBC interview.

So I think the folks at Ladbrokes need to start running a line on whether Trump can make it to January 20, 2026 without being committed to a mental institution

It’s absolutely impossible to disagree with Joe’s recommendation, unless you’re a partisan hack and/or just dumb as a rock.

We tried to warn everyone, but even his educated supporters just kept baselessly insisting he’d be great for the economy. Trump even told them what wrong-headed policies he’d implement. They are all either blindly partisan, or stupid despite their level of educational attainment.

Fascism is now in the algorithms, the neural pathways, the social interactions. How did we fail to see all this? “We wanted to see Trump in terms of his absences, so that our way of seeing the world would go unchallenged,” Timothy Snyder writes.

What Does It Mean That Donald Trump Is a Fascist?
Trump takes the tools of dictators and adapts them for the Internet. We should expect him to try to cling to power until death, and create a cult of January 6th martyrs.

Think about this for a minute. The President of the United States today, in the White House & on camera, said he’d deport American citizens without due process, sending them to an El Salvadoran prison from which they would surely never exit. American democracy has ended. It’s over.

It sure was. They owe us more than just complaints about Trump. They need to mobilize Congressional opposition and action to neuter Trump. Otherwise, they might aa well STF up.
