Yes, it's not said enough.

EVERYONE elected since 2020 with an R by their name has personally chosen loyalty to Trump over the Constitution and their oath. Every one. At every level.

Sure, a few are allowed to object - to give the illusion it's not an authoritarian cult - but never in numbers that block Dear Leader's will.

We must hammer home the message - #RepublicansAreTheProblem (and of course, their billionaire owners)

That's because the entire #WhiteHouse is a #RussianAsset

The White House is debating whether to lift #sanctions on #Russia’s #NordStream2 #NaturalGas pipeline and potentially other Russian assets in #Europe as part of discussions on ending the war between Russia and #Ukraine, five people familiar with the discussions told POLITICO.

The #Republican #tariff insanity will fail. Not only will it drive up prices because AMERICANS pay the #TariffTax on everything they buy, but it will also fail to bring both #jobs and #manufacturing to the USA. New industrial parks take YEARS to build, especially considering new supply chains that they depend on, and no company is going to make that investment when #Trump is out in 4 years, the American economy tanks, and the next president will reverse it all.

"Humans appeared at one time a mere scion of the evil one, and at other as all that can be conceived of noble and godlike. To be a great and virtuous person appeared the highest honor that can befall a sensitive being; to be base and vicious, as many on record have been, appeared the lowest degradation, a condition more abject than that of the blind mole or harmless worm."

-Dr. Frankenstein's "Monster"
in Mary Shelley's novel by the same name

In 1630, when John Winthrop spoke of #America as "a city on a hill," he wasn't speaking of so-called American exceptionalism. He meant it as an admonition. That a city on a hill cannot hide. That the world was watching and that this new country, allegedly built around virtue, needed to be a good example.

These days we're proving that we are fundamentally UN-exceptional, as corrupt and despotic as any other tin-cup kingdom led by fools and frauds. 😔

There is no better way to construct a criminal state than to appoint criminals to positions of power while claiming they're actually noble patriots. And most importantly, there is no better way to undermine democracy and the rule of law than by making criminals our political leaders.
