@GottaLaff What galls me the most is that there’s enough people who want either a #rapist#dictator or an off-brand #MAGA worm-brain as head of this country. And many say we should take the high road and ‘listen to these people’s concerns’. For me, if you have either one of these on your bucket list for election, FU! #ElectionsMatter#NeverTrump
@cosvak That empty narrative is infamously known as the “Tweedle-Dee, Tweedle-Dumb,” “Not a dimes worth of difference,” “Both Sides are exactly the same,” theories. The stock in trade of Nader, Greenwald, Moore, Sarandon, Stein and RFK, Jr. It’s noise that only dispirits voters. Please don’t make more of it.
I just learned that I've reached the point where I won't take blatant disparagement of political persons who are actually trying.
I welcome you to unfollow me if you cannot find your way to save democracy this year. Literal rights are on the line. Everything is here.
I fucked up by not voting sometimes in the past, not taking it seriously, believing both parties had the country's best interest at heart, for all people, how foolish, I was trying to find the perfect candidate WHO DOESN'T EXIST.
The goal now is to get to vote again (fairly) and make change for the better, everywhere.
Slam the wrong people right now and you may very well make this worse for so many people.
Trump engaged in an insurrection on Jan 6th, tried to overturn a pres. election, assembled false slates of electors, faces 4 criminal indictments, totaling 91 felony counts, cuddles up close to Putin & now says, "If I don't get elected, it's going to be a bloodbath."
> The committee was incredibly diligent and meticulous in its approach to developing and corroborating evidence that shows the role President Donald Trump played from the day after the 2020 election until the fateful Jan. 6 debacle as he attempted to hold on to his job. It is an impressive literary work.
Republicans want to dismantle and deconstruct DEMOCRACY! But, don’t take anyone’s word for it. Read it for yourself. This is directly from their written policy agenda (link below)…
This is really important to understand, especially for all of us who are heartbroken by Biden's behavior towards Palestine. #vote#voteblue#biden2024#nevertrump

Dear God. Do we have a national amnesia epidemic now, in addition to the mania to morph our democracy into a fascist state with a corrupt moron as dictator?
During the TrumpTimes, I was creating memes like crazy for activist groups on birdsite. I deleted most of them after the 2020 election, but hung onto this one as a memory capsule of how many times Fucko crossed the red line of unbelievable & unacceptable behavior. And it doesn’t reflect even a fraction of his actions.
There was an app for the 2016 election called #NeverTrump that tried to do exactly this by means of “vote trading”. Voters in swing states that wanted to vote 3rd party would get matched up with Californians willing to put in their “protest vote” in CA in exchange for voting Hillary in the swing state. Obviously it didn’t work, but this isn’t a new concept. The stakes are too high a third year in a row to fuck around.
A second Trump term would be far more radical than the first, committed to stretching legal and governance boundaries and to pursuing retribution for the prosecutions he has been fighting since losing office. Domestically, many pillars of American democracy, including an independent judiciary and central bank, would be imperiled. #NeverTrump#VoteBlue#GOP#GOPTraitors
Woke up 3 yrs ago feeling so optimistic about our country, and then turned on the news. Never forget which party of traitors did this. #Jan6#Insurrection#Traitors#NeverTrump
"Then as usual, he left the dirty work to others. He retreated to the White House. As America was attacked from within, Donald Trump watched on TV in the private small dining room off the oval office. The entire nation watched in horror, the whole world watched in disbelief, and Trump did nothing [...] It was among the worst derelictions of duty by a president in American history."
I wasn’t pleased with the way former Congresswoman Liz Cheney voted, but I totally agree with her statement, we are “sleepwalking into a dictatorship”. Trump is a threat to our democracy and the world! #NeverTrump#TrumpForPrison
@realTuckFrumper
I think I speak for thousands, if not millions, of ordinary Americans in saying that this particular ex-president going to jail has been on the forefront of our minds since he first spat on his Oath of Office in 2017 (which was his first official lie). I’m just sorry that there isn’t a 93rd felony charge for abducting migrant children - with NO plan for reunification.
Donald Trump is “the single most dangerous threat” the US faces as he seeks a return to the Oval Office, according to Liz Cheney, the moderate [Haha!!!] Republican whose opposition to her party leader’s presidency had cost her a congressional seat she held for six years.
“He cannot be the next president because if he is, all of the things that he attempted to do but was stopped from doing by responsible people … he will do.”
Despite ALL he did to undermine & even intentionally destroy our constitutional Republic, despite his four indictments with 90+ alleged felonies, despite his terrifying statements of intentions “when” he is re-elected, millions of Americans WILL VOTE for this treasonous criminal.
We MUST make certain Americans who value a democratic future out-vote and prevail against gerrymandered districts & MAGA anti-voter laws.
It’s not too early to volunteer to register, solicit donations, & work to get out the blue vote.
🔹DONATE TO DEMS.
🔹JOIN ACTIVISTS.
🔹WORK TO GET OUT THE BLUE VOTE.
🔹SPREAD THE TRUTH ABOUT PRES. BIDEN’S SUCCESSES.
