I mean, you sort of have to.
Jan 6th shattered any hope I had that America could resolve this peacefully. Especially Republican's reaction and rapid adoption of normalizing their god damn coup attempt.
If others think elections still matter, then I cheer on the idea of it...
But personally, I expect to see mass graves no later than 2030.

While there is no "make economy good" button in the oval office, they are certainly doing their damndest to press all the very real "make economy bad" buttons.

They are shitting their pants that voters (correctly) are going to blame them for the economy. Absolutely loaded drawers.

Alright we got Jerome out here basically saying you’re gonna have to kill me to get me out of here. SCOTUS better drop that tariff decision asap.


The guy who destroyed an entire wing of the White House wants to remove Powell for his management of the Federal Reserve headquarters renovation. The hypocrisy is palpable. Isnt Powell one of the very few who's trying to prevent the collapse of the US economy by defying Trumpworld over interest rates?

LO! Bondi's DoJ has zero credibility and Tillis knows it.
Surprised he pretends to care.
He would vote to impeach Trump if he actually did. We all know he does not.
This is just showboating for the morals he is abandoning. Ere long, he will go quietly into the night, or continue to support the very actions he claims to condemn.

None of the charges will stick. DOJ is incompetent. Keep in mind that the President doesn't understand how percentages work. Politicizing central banks is an insane idea, with a long history of this not going well.

What a constant waste of taxpayer dollars. The biggest gangster on the planet weaponizes his own flunky cabinet to indict and to try to imprison an official he appointed! A frivolous lawsuit to try to destroy anyone he can't control. 250th year of America and each day is dumber than the last. Another day, another impeachable offense.

When is any democrat going to have the balls to stand u
I think plenty are. There are both insider actions and outsider actions, and there are multiple levels of negotiation about various issues. Just look at the other day, the House passed an extension of the ACA subsidies via a discharge petition in spite of Speaker Johnson. If you come out as a hardline on everything, do you think that makes it easier or harder for Republicans to break ranks on select issues that you might convince them on? There are also places where people in charge don''t want to take the steps that would give Trump a plausible reason to invoke something like the Insurrection Act since that's really only an action you can take once, and to date, the administration has been losing over and over again in many courts. Furthermore, not everything moves at the speed of posting. There are things I wish some Democrats would do more of, but we shouldn't lose sight that Republicans are enabling and doing the bad things, and they have the agency to stop it (and we can hold them accountable for doing the bad things).

What a fucking pussy. Just a worthless gutless worm piece of shit that won’t even own what he is doing that everybody can see.
Lol, a good chance he isn't because he's clueless and is clearly suffering from cognitive deficits; and it could just be a thing one of his sycophants was doing to garner his favor. But he also never takes responsibility for anything, even if he was aware. He's a true Republican in that way, in that Personal Responsibility™ is always for other people.

He is also a world class coward.

This isn't the USA; we never made it to the 250th year. We're coming up on the 1 year anniversary of the Fourth Reich.
