For what it’s worth, I’ve been going to all the big ones, and each time I’ve gone, I’ve gotten one or two more people to come with me. Today my whole family is going to one in another state because we’ve been talking about it in our group chat. And I’ve got about 8 friends meeting me at the one in my town.

I went alone to the first protest I went to a year ago, now I have 10+ allies with me. They’re growing. To your point, it’s not fast enough, but I’m really inspired by how many people that did NOT give 1 single fuck a year ago, are making signs to march with me today

Florida and Texas have some of the highest populations of illegal immigrants in the US.

They are simply reading the room and making a calculated choice. The public needs to continue putting the pressure on, they are cracking at the local level first.

Never underestimate the Democrats’ ability to get in their own way

“mooooom can we have fascism in Europe? Just a little bit?”

“we have fascism at home.”

Our only hope for saving American democracy is that there are still other Republicans that can think of nothing worse than losing an ounce of power to someone else.

I like to ask them which letter of DEI they think is the worst one and watch them realize they can’t answer without being a bad person.

I feel like he always looks like that. He always looks like he’s guilty and looking for an exit or coming up with the next lie. I can’t imagine living like that

Yore onto something, it’s a strategy that’s never failed in America

Stephen Miller’s quote is of course quite hyperbolic but in fact yes, the US constitution says even foreign alien terrorists are guaranteed legal representation in the American criminal justice system. It’s amazing how many people either don’t understand this or pretend not to understand it, because it’s one of the tenets that made America so great to begin with, at least on paper

The majority of the voting population answers this question based on name recognition alone. You’re way more up to speed on the options than the average American voter. We need to put energy into getting people like AOC in front of as many disengaged and unaware people as possible. NOT complain and whine that everything isn’t handed to us on a platter.

She’s in second place and we have 3 years to move her into first, that sounds worth a shot to me. But go ahead and throw your hands up in the air, tuck your tail, and say there’s nothing we can do.

We are closer than we’ve ever been in my lifetime.

Yeah it feels a bit like daring them to make the move and take the mask off. It takes balls and I’m all for it. Show America who we voted for, on both sides.

She is in a very blue district that loves her, if she vacates her seat it will almost certainly be filled with another blue candidate,and likely one that she personally endorses.

Yeah, I don’t buy anything about how the public is leaning anymore. I assume everyone is conservative and will continue to vote conservative in every election until I see any evidence otherwise.

After the 2024 election, the public can’t be trusted and the media absolutely cannot be, in regards to elections especially.

I agree with you

I said “in theory,” several times. You even quoted me saying it.

Yes I live in the US. I’m not predicting anything. I was answering the question that was asked, sorry if I triggered your hate boner.

Theoretically, the citizens of the US would stop him from doing that. It’s such an obvious an egregious violation of rights that (again, in theory) he would lose a lot of support over it and we’d potentially face riots and massive protests. This is probably what Trump wants though, so he and Musk have a reason to implement martial law and really take the mask off

Yeah your grandma is the only important life on earth. Fuck all the Ukrainian grandmothers and their families whose lives don’t matter at all, every tax dollar needs to go to your family first.

See I can “paraphrase” you too. Sorry for your loss.

No one is saying that except you bud.

The media outlets most likely to do that (AP & Reuters) are no longer allowed in the room for these kinds of things.
