    When the common American people finally realize and understand that the Political Industrial Complex of both parties is ripping this country apart, that not one elected leader like me is able to stop Washington’s machine from gradually destroying our country, and instead the reality is that they, common Americans, The People, possess the real power over Washington, then I’ll be here by their side to rebuild it.

    I think she was basically forced to resign for having demanded the full release of the Epstein files. Just like Cynthia McKinney was forced out of Congress for opposing the Iraq War and the “Patriot Act”…

      It also points to a consolidated executive leveraging a huge amount of power over legislators to the point where it is a whip itself.

      This is not universally a bad thing, but with the reactionaries holding the executive and also the legislature with a coherent program of what to do with this, it portends very bad things to come. If an incumbent representative feels that the president’s loyalists will primary them, and decides the seat is already lost, that says a lot. If a more focused fascist manages to succeed Trump, we would be without two mitigating factors of the past 10 years:, both the powerfully delusional people, and the quixotic self-aggrandizing narcissism.

      In other words, loose cannon down, shit sucks, hellworld deepens.

Rules:

– PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE –

Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.

All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body.

If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include not just the twitter.com URL but also Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source (archive.today, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org). Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed.

Mass-tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken Markov chain bot will result in a comm ban.

Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.

Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned.

Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like ‘Raid: Shadow Legends’ in order to be rehabilitated back into general society.
