NO.
now is NOT the time to tell people not to criticize Biden. look at what he is doing for after almost half a million votes during these .

NOW IS THE TIME TO PUSH DEMOCRATS, TO THE LEFT AS HARD AS WE CAN.

Protests work.

Democrats need to be the party, not the party of meeting the fascists in the middle.

now is the time for all democrats to act like members of an antifascist party and not as just the opposition.

"Republicans have no clear shot at him any more. There is no longer a strong case against Biden’s re-election. With that, I think what we are beginning to see is the election is increasingly becoming a referendum on Trump and not Biden."

@RoundsforSenate @SenatorRounds support for Donald Trump is the farthest thing from 'conservative'. The Republican candidate is a radical choice; an extremist, a far right extremist advocating domestic terror. How did Mike Rounds get radicalized? @CNNSOTU @DanaBashCNN

Mark Francois talks about Neville Chamberlain "denuding the British forces of funding until it was too late."

This is wrong. Even while Chamberlain was signing the Munich Agreement in 1938, he was agreeing to a huge increase in spending to increase Britain’s armament in preparation for war.

Mark knows fuck'all

I believe these 46 seconds will be remembered for decades to come.

When all of this is over, this may prove to have been the turning point for Ukraine, because it was in these seconds, American voters could see that the presidential election was not just about partisan issues, but about freedom itself.

Trump will lose, and then Putin will lose, and freedom will prevail.

The big problem with the State of the Union speech was that instead of speaking to the whole country about the whole country, it focused on speaking to his own choir about himself and his reelection.

That’s why people are criticizing it as a campaign speech.

If you’re a Biden supporter, realize that the speech did not invite non-supporters, including independents, to join in his efforts. It appealed only to those already on board, which is not productive in terms of actually getting those efforts done.

In other words, if you’re in favor of what Biden was calling for, you too should be critical that this won’t help get those things done.

The speech seemed focused on helping nobody… except Joe Biden’s personal reelection.

Oof. Katie Britt’s rebuttal to tonights American SOTU was giving budget TV college production actress and secret serial killer vibes. Never has a laugh sounded both insincere and fully murderous all at the same time. Also they put her in a kitchen set?! Unreal fumble by the Republicans. #sotu

♦️Why didn’t the Associated Press, New York Times, Washington Post, or any other news organization have this story?
♦️Would any of them have eventually fact-checked that portion of her speech?
♦️Would they have all just let it slide?
It is a lot like what happened in 2022 as the story of then-Rep.-Elect (R-NY) began to unravel.
The Times reported on it, but missed it until after the election was over 💥and proceeded to get really irritated at the implication that the New York Times should do in-depth pre-election reporting on New York congressional races💥

"Throughout [Katie Britt's] remarks, her face was frozen into a ghastly cheerleader’s rictus—an effect that became especially gothic as she doted with unseemly relish on the details of alleged immigrant rape, sex-trafficking, and other mayhem."

"(What’s more, Britt’s central immigrant horror story turned out to be a repurposed saga of cartel-driven sexual abuse in Guadalajara dating from the second George W. Bush administration, which she dishonestly and cynically presented as an American calamity, authored by the immigration policies of Joe Biden.)"

It is Monday, March 11th, and Stuff has Happened.

Apple is pulling some next level bullshit. A beloved internet production studio is kill. A message in a bottle returned after 40 years. The US SOTU happened and I would have preferred to forget. TikTok is on the chopping block again.

“Because here is real danger in what Katie Britt did. And I want to take a moment and sit in the danger and talk about the fact that she weaponized someone's story, not to actually get something done, not to make someone's life better, but to score political points. It's just about the ugliest thing you can do in American politics.” — Alicia Menendez, on MSNBC’s The Weekend.
