This is the stuff of fascism. Eliminate civil servants and replace them with political appointments.

@00pi Thank you for saying that. I am totally in agreement and am always saying it. It's nice to have someone else say it as well.
The right-wing MAGA supporters are unhinged over their would-be king facing prison. And frankly, the GOP rhetoric has only heightened their delusion that this guy is being persecuted.
People are now in danger for doing their jobs based on outright lies spread by Trump, his allies, and the GOP itself.

I'm posting this for all the generations who think they can sit back and let Gen Z save us. Wake the fuck up. The right-wing has a Gen Z too, and they have some very specific ideas about saving the white man and instituting authoritarian rule.
Every fucking Democratic voter should be, by now, resolved to show up at the voting booth.
McCarthy already faces two Democratic Party challengers, but now he's facing a challenge from one of Trump's army of vindiction.
This challenge has nothing to do with improving the lives of Americans. It's all about amassing MAGA power in government to institute authoritarian rule. You'd better face that fact right now.
On November 7, 2023, Paige Beauchemin will be running for the New Hampshire House, Hillsborough D-3 seat. She is a pro-choice registered nurse and midwife who has pledged to fight for women's reproductive rights, more accessible and affordable childcare, public education, and climate action.
And if she wins this special election next week, we will gain a TIE in a GOP-controlled statehouse.
Personally, I can't stand Jenna Ellis. And her whining and crying as she pleaded guilty was a crock; she's up to her eyeballs in this thing. But hey, if she can help bury The Orange Jackaloon, bring it on.

There's another court proceeding that The Orange Jackaloon doesn't even want to acknowledge, but it is happening. In fact, the trial starts tomorrow in Colorado.
We all on the same page here? This is precisely why the GOP absolutely MUST be dismantled at the polls. MAGA Mike is Donald Trump's personal general. Anything less than a landslide Democratic victory is insufficient.

Gee. I wonder why. According to Comer, depositions work better. In actual fact, they've got jack shit to work with. This should be interesting since our new Speaker is dead set on impeaching Biden.
The most colossal shitshow in history will continue for another fourteen months.
The worst of all possible scenarios I forsaw during the 2022 midterms was the GOP winning the House. They are proving that my fears were correct.
If the more rational GOP House members actually really cared about Democracy and the American people, five of them would cross the aisle and vote for Hakeem Jeffries. Country over party. End of story.

If you think this latest round of zipperheads running for GOP speaker are 'better' than Jim Jordan, you might want to read this article. I've been saying the GOP is completely done.
We need to put them out of their misery in 2024. For everyone's sake.
Be sure to keep an eye on your School Committees and School Boards. Moms for Liberty is serious about infiltrating, forcing their twisted ideologies on parents and kids, and destroying the public school system in America.

We need to keep on keeping on. None of these victories are insignificant. Everything matters between now and January 1, 2025.
It's not just about the mess we're in. It's how we rise to the occasion.

ALEC, or The American Legislative Exchange Council, is -- plain and simple -- a right-wing bill mill. It is the power behind all the anti-abortion bills and anti-LGBTQ+ bills that have been passed in red states.
This is not a new entity. They were also the power behind all of the Stand Your Ground laws.
His own party voted him out of contention for the speaker position. Now the American people need to vote him out of office once and for all.

KEEP IN MIND THAT THESE ARE THE "DISCUSSIONS" THE GOP IS HAVING...IF IT'S OKAY TO ASSOCIATE WITH WHITE SUPREMACISTS.
THIS SHOULDN'T EVEN BE A TOPIC OF CONVERSATION FOR ELECTED OFFICIALS WHOSE JOB IT IS TO REPRESENT ALL OF US.
Anti-Fascist. Pro-Democracy. Anti-MAGA fighting the GOP. Support LGBTQ+; BLM; antifa; women's, indigenous, immigrant rights. #NewBillofRights
