The law doesn’t matter unless the president says it does. We can disagree but it doesn’t matter until he is removed.

EOs are far more powerful because they trigger actual action by federal agencies.

It may not be how we learned it in Social Studies, but this is the streets.

. . .aaaand they’re back on

What does the Constitution have to do with anything?

Treason and a riot

Picking a cause that doesn’t resonate and polarizes a full third of the country
vs
following the data

Woke has no plan but is overstocked with blind righteousness.

Fine. Then come up with a plan to educate conservatives. Because this thing where the state legislates new norms (e.g. bio men in bio women’s sports) is NOT making sense to them. They are freaking out because they don’t understand it. And we can’t just make laws to make them accept it.

From their perspective they are losing their country. We can laugh and call them backwards, but that won’t help. There HAS to be a plan that is better than, f-you wake up.

Donald Trump, age 76 years, son of Fred and Wilma, said something stupid today.

Or elect a Congress that will remove him

Who has the authority to do that?

The best puppet. Nobody takes a hand up the butt like me.

Trump assumes office on January 20th.
America assumes the position on January 20th.

Honestly, I’m surprised this didn’t happen four or even eight years ago. They’re all grifters and you can pay them to push any message. I wouldn’t be surprised if she was being fed money from some ultra leftist group just to cause chaos.

The Burger King

We are still working on legalizing abortion with a simple law after 50 years. These things take time.

It’s not that I don’t want them to fight it is that their drive to fight this fight is distracting them from the real fight. And every time we engage on this level we ignore the systemic issues. The issues are not gay rights or book burning or taxes. The issue is democracy and money in politics… it is simply impossible to fix any other issue without fixing those two. First, anyone who tries to sell us anything but those two initiatives are not acting in good faith and are being selfish with their personal goal or acting nefariously. Folks who really want to solve the problem will look for the real problem and stop chasing at all of these little triggering red herrings. There are literally hundreds of these issues and none of them matter at the end of the day. Getting good people involved in government is another one of those lies. And it’s interesting you brought up being a cop because that is probably the only profession that is more toxic to good people than politics.

The whole thing needed a reset for decades. It’s a shame that Trump got to be the one to do it. But the Dems proved they couldn’t handle Trump and they were not ready to lead the country against his handlers. Out maneuvered again and it’s getting embarrassing at this point. Like it or not, Trump is painting with the same brush he used in the election, and it’s still working for him.

Why would I ever advise somebody I care about to enter a field in which they will be completely devoured alive or droned out from the heart out?.

You need to take care of yourself and your own mental health first before you start entering into endeavors that have very little chance of succeeding. The government is orders of magnitude more powerful than any individual or any group, and has way too much momentum at this point. The only thing we can (practically) do is let it spin until it breaks. We’re not organized to do anything beyond that. Aaron Sorkin set us back 15 years by writing about this stuff like it’s Camelot.

Less Luthor

I don’t know if this is a good enough reason to encourage someone to work for the government. It’s a dead end for good people so you need to play the game, be happy with being a drone, or leave.

No movement is going to stop the momentum at this point. This reactor is going to have to spin itself faster until it breaks.

A trillion? That’s it? That’s literally the budget deficit after Trump’s corporate tax cuts from 35% to 21% (18% to 11% effective) .

Repeal the TJCA

What’s next?

I will RTFM after literally anyone else does.
