Lol. Come on, keep your dreams in the realm of possibility

Trump will die never facing consequences for his many crimes. But it will be soon

Nope. When I said quietly, I meant it… This got very little media attention. Also, search is pretty much dead at this point, I can’t find shit I read a week ago - there’s too many results around Jan 6 no matter how specific I query it

But essentially, the top brass created a voicemail for trump, there’s a bunch of deleted texts between the military and secret service, and then Trump was conspicuously absent during the handover process

They will go to unimaginable lengths to learn the wrong lessons, don’t get me wrong. And they’re doing their very best

They’re testing literally everything except being more progressive… Everything from working with MAGA and bringing out Obama

But none of their bizarre mixing and matching of everything imaginable, including testing fucking Hunter Biden for a presidential run, have paid off at all

I just think it’s finally obvious, and urgent, enough that the leadership is going to turn over. At the end of the day, the leadership might be willing to go down with the ship over this, but the rank and file won’t

The military basically removed him from power quietly after Jan 6 and worked with Pelosi to do the transition

Did you see the part where the defacto leader of the party didn’t show up to his own press conference, so the reporters asked Bernie (who was just watching from the back) if he’d answer questions?

The Democratic establishment fought Mamdani (and progressives generally) along with Trump and the oligarchs and lost massively. Both parties are in chaos right now, because it’s obvious that money is no longer enough to win elections, even safe ones

They’re all going to be quiet for a while before the other shoe drops, hopefully the infighting will make it easier for progressives to rise to prominence

The more popular plan among them seems to be this

If you read through it you’ll find a lot of the things in project 2025 that came out of nowhere (like taking Canada, Greenland, and Panama) are actually goals of the movement

Oh, and Elon’s Grandpa was in the movement, and the heritage foundation was started by the same group

They’ve been there for more than a generation, and they’re not occupying the country, they’re basically just a group of weird neighbors

Everything is normal when you grow up with it, and their contact with the troops is going to be exclusively when they’re off duty and likely looking to spend money

How? An airtag isn’t going to work from inside you, and they’re going to search you. They also like to bounce people around to make them hard to track, so that tracker is going to end up wherever the person was processed

This just isn’t practical with current technology

It’s an exaggeration to illustrate a point… It’s not literally true

But it is pointing at something that is true

Sure, because that’s the norm for humans

I’m sure you could find specific subcultures elsewhere that don’t do this, but it’s the default everywhere else. It’s not just close family friends or people you grew up with, any friend from a generation up is Uncle or Aunty

I’m sure there’s a reason for it, and it’s probably a very interesting one

Like every other culture uses familial terms for an extra layer of casual address, white people are the only ones that don’t

Say he’s brown without saying he’s brown lol

You have to be shitting me…a separate vote?

Yeah, pretty much. Cooperation is our natural state, we act a lot like a eusocial hive species when you watch from a distance

A guy with a sex scandal got more votes than the last Mayor.

The last mayor dropped out, and also has a sex scandal

9 points is a ton. That’s the kind of margin you get gerrymandering a district to hell. That means you won the election, and very probably the next one too

Red and blue states are the color they are by like a 5 point tilt in either direction

This was a fight between two Democratic candidates - this was the neo-liberal uniparty vs progressives

9 points is very, very meaningful in this context

They’re strong to the weak and weak to the strong

This was a huge show of strength. This is going to make the infighting absolutely explode, they’ll be busy for a while

His life has already been combed through, one time he borrowed a table in college to use in a different room. He was a rapper and had a mustache for a while

What they actually mean is that, for years to come, they’re going to ask him if he’s extra sure he’s not a terrorist in every single conversation

Yes, but you’ve also separated the money and put it under the care of a third party. And presumably, you’d do this as a matter of state law

When the IRS comes knocking, you can say “sure thing, your money is over there, as according to local laws”. The IRS can then sue you, but you followed the law and set the money aside - clearly you weren’t attempting to avoid paying

Which realistically means the federal government needs to sue the state, either to overturn the state law or collect all the money

The Fascists? Obviously they’re racist

How about the Democrats? Every goddamn interview they’re like “hey, so we saw you with a brown person who looked kinda angry earlier, would you like to disavow claims that you’re planning another 9/11?”
