I hate to say it but the US as we knew it has never existed. It’s always been propaganda to cover up centuries of exactly these kinds of atrocities. The only difference now is the people running the show have decided they no longer need to hide behind a mask of altruism.

Honestly, I have a truly biblical amount of anger at the DNC for being such consummate imbeciles and yet again snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. It was basically a slam dunk… and fucking Harris and her campaign and the DNC and the fuckwit political consultants just proceeded to drill a three-pointer from half-court into their own basket.

Turns out that people won’t show up for you if they’re just kinda angry at the status quo, and your pitch is “it’ll be more of the same”.

We didn't blow it, trump and musk rigged the election and admitted to it on live TV. The math backs it up, but the media won't report on it because they're part of the coup too.

They’re obviously going to try some shit this election but I don’t think they’re going to go as hard this year as they will in ‘28. Trump doesn’t seem to really care if they lose the House because he probably plans to just ignore anything a Dem house will do anyway. He’s already blaming congressional GOP for losses when it’s almost entirely his admins policies sinking them.

The Senate is in play but I think it’s still gonna be GOP because the Senate is inherently fucking bullshit and IF it goes 51/49 to Dems, Fetterman is gonna flip. This is another reason I don’t think they’re gonna put in a lot of effort to sabotage this election. IF we somehow get a 52/48 Dem senate then I’d really expect shit to pop off.

They’re going to push and prod to find weaknesses. They’ll probably give up on the House, get everyone to let their guard down. Then use what they learn this year to really fuck things up in ‘28.

A lot of us aren’t just going to accept it.

If we have to go to civil war, fine, let’s just fucking do it.

I hope it stays peaceful and congress brings legal authority for those who want to defend democracy, but if it doesn’t stay peaceful I know a lot of people that are ready for that.

We’re all fucking tired of being abused.

I keep saying the last chance was 2024 and the USA fucked it up.

100%. Biden admin fucking dropped the ball big time. I consider him one of the worst Presidents simply for that (there’s also the whole genocide thing…).

Truth is no one is gonna save us but us.

I always like to remind people that in the frog boiling experiment, the only frogs that didn't react to the temperature rising, were the ones who'd had their brains removed. The other tried to escape once the water hit around 25 degrees C.

Fully agree. As an example I work with a 55 year old man who is a hardcore trump supporter. And he says if trump causes the end of the world and we are all being marched into the pits of hell he would make sure to push a liberal in front of himself just to be alive 5 seconds longer and own the libs one last time.

No, its two-thirds.

Apathy is no excuse in the face of very blatant fascism and bigotry.

agreed, to a point. I cant help but notice that the centrist DNC is silent in the face of Omar being attacked. Why arent they outraged? Why dont they call for investigations and oversite? She is a dem, but they sure seem to be letting her hang in the wind because she is a progressive.

I'm sure that will be the intended end result but I feel like they've moved too early.

They should have waited to do all the unpopular things until after they'd already seized control but they don't have the self-control for that.

Since when can the DOJ execute search warrants without a judge signing off on it?

This isn’t the same kind of situation as an administrative warrant, the type ICE is using, to my knowledge. Even ICE has avoided breaking into people’s properties to arrest people because those administrative warrants don’t cover that.
