I think the thing that is giving me the most rage and anxiety outside of the absolutely horrible shit Donald has already implemented from Project 2025 is watching top Democrats over and over and over again sit on their hands, keep trying to find common ground, and prioritize “bipartisanship.” Several voted for cloture to get dog-murderer Kristi Noem confirmed to DHS. Meanwhile they are surrounded by low-hanging fruit that they could beat the everloving fuck out of Trump and the GOP with, but they refuse to out of decorum and civility politics.
Now, I get that most of our mainstream media is going to be downplaying or sanewashing everything MAGA does since their owners have gotten in bed with him (figuratively speaking), but it’ll never stop infuriating me that we don’t have a functioning opposition party because the crooked geriatrics on the top of it stopped comprehending politics after 1994.
AOC, Jasmine Crockett, and Maxwell Frost have been bringing the noise. But they have no power within the party. Pelosi, Schumer, Clyburn and their ilk just keep learning the wrong lessons and doing as the Beltway elites tell them.

I mean we know Musk did electoral fraud going into the election, and Trump made some very suspicious statements in his rally last weekend that sounded like a confession.
But neither of those are exactly proof of election rigging.
Oh yeah those 2 would 100% tamper with the votes if they had even half a chance of getting away with it. But because the Drms are pussies there was no investigation or recount, so it’s all just conspiracies right now.

Same folks who yell about minorities eating dogs happily endorse someone who shoots them for the shits and giggles.
Like who? What evidence do you have of that? Obviously if you’re not OK with Haitian migrants eating dogs you wouldn’t be OK with needless dog killing, that’s pretty fucking obvious and if you’re claiming the opposite you better have some fucking examples.

Donald Trump. The 59 senators who voted to confirm her. Like all of Fox News.
@The Smiling Pony
The same one where she killed the dog because she was mad it was happy (not an exaggeration), then right after rushed home to kill a goat.
A book she wrote to basically campaign on, with the message being “I kill things I don’t like. Give me power to kill everything I don’t like, or else I don’t like you.”
She is literally Roger in this clip. The entire clip, not just the end.

They don’t respect it whatsoever. Much like my mom mentioned not liking watching things about Jesus, they have abandoned Christ in favour of whatever poor excuse for “Christianity” they claim to believe in. They are truly lost souls.
God bless Bishop Mariann Budde for bravely showing them what the faith is really about.
It seems to be a twisted, perverted version of that old Viking religion where you could only go to Heaven (Valhalla) if you died in glorious battle and it wasn’t a show of incompetence or gross idiocy on your part. Unless you went down like a January 6’er or the Rats of Tobruk or the Alamo guys (on either side) you’d be going to Hell. Combine that with the Protestant Work Ethic and the aspects of Calvinism that Calvin himself rejected and was vilified for by the Puritans, and you can see they have a very twisted view of reality where the only way to avoid eternal damnation is to oppress anyone not like themselves. And it’s probably genetic to an extent, especially the Valhalla part. Maybe I’m just grasping at straws here, though.

Musk Rat is endorsing and supporting Fascism across the World, Germany being one of his most recent focuses:
Elon Musk addresses German far-right rally by video link
Musk told AfD supporters that their party was ’the best hope for the future of Germany
Nazi is Gonna Nazi.
Another angle, take notice of a certain position of confetti:
The guy who threw a Nazi Salute giving a speech at a Far Right Rally in Germany.
How much more direct could you fucking get?
Asmongold, Joe Rogan, and other Fascist Bootlickers who defend this bastard are the most inept buffoons that should’ve never been allowed to use the internet or are outright happy to support such hate personal power and “own teh woke libs!!!” for clout.

I’m curious about what strategies the Democrats can employ to win future elections, given the current landscape. It seems like the Oligarchs has gained their ground, leading me to wonder if the Democrats need to adopt more radical approaches in order to reclaim political power. The Democrats’ success in 2020 raised hopes, but what are the key factors they can leverage to replicate that victory in future elections?
Because it seems that the Oligarch Fascist Party has been more effective at leveraging social media to amplify their message, exemplified by platforms like the Joe Rogan Experience. While the Democrats are also using social media, they haven’t been as successful in countering the Oligarch Fascist Party narrative. With the rise of a new fascist oligarchy, like Elon Musk, there’s a need for the Democrats to adopt innovative strategies. Fresh leadership is necessary, and veteran leaders like Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer should step aside to make way for new, more effective voices that can dismantle the emerging Fascist Oligarchy in the United States.

Let’s be honest.
Both parties need fresh blood. I’m going to assume that a lot of these politicians have been in power before I was even born. Which is depressing when you think about it.
Sad thing is many of them will die in office. We already saw that with late Senator John McCain and others who were in office till they died via their health problems.
They really don’t want to give up the power, ngl.

I used to think Pelosi was somewhat over-hated but I’ve come to realize that she’s legit causing more harm than good.
Also holy shit, NYT is actually fucking acknowledging that Rump is bad for Democracy?
The First Signs of Tyranny, From People Who Missed Them | NYT Opinion
Exile. Imprisonment. The end of elections. We know what tyranny looks like once it’s underway.
But how does it start?
In the Opinion Video above, you’ll meet people from around the world who missed the warning signs of tyranny taking root in their home countries.
They can see the red flags, in retrospect. And they have a word of caution: The rule of law doesn’t break down overnight, and checks and balances don’t collapse in an instant.
Tyranny takes time.
Like fuck, where was this kind of energy previously?

It’s going to be a very rough 4+ years, but at least the Eternal Punchlines will provide plenty of schadenfreude to help us through.
We’re not even a full week in yet!
