Man it just makes me fucken sick every time I read some fascist shit like this
You gon be sick AF for a while bruh. Me too.
I truly believe this is it. Not that we weren't partially autocratic before, but now it's mask off, fully torqued. Protestors are now all terrorists, especially climate protestors and Trump haters. We are so fucked.
You overestimate the competence of the republican traitor filth. It’s gonna be bad, but the sun will rise again.
When the oligarchy and government combine, the people lose every time. Underestimating has lasting deadly consequences.
The next four years are going to be bonkers.
four years
I wish I could be so optimistic...
And it won't stop there. We'll be suffering the consequences for a long time, both of the fascism and of the dismantling of climate protections.
We can take control of congress in 2.
Aren't these just a bunch of wrongful termination lawsuits waiting to be filed?
"Good luck with that"

For appointments it's a non-starter for sure. For other "low level" positions I think it's worth it to make a stink. Lying to the public is one thing but lying in court is another. The more they appear in court the more they get caught in lies and get disbarred or worse.
Their resignation letters are probably already written. Senator Schmitt gets press for ignorance.
Senator Schitt looks like bigotry

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
