Via Timothy Snyder: 1/…

The thing Trump did in Dayton – celebrating his fascist movement's dubious "martyrs"–is exactly what Goebbels & Hitler did bw Nazis' failed coup & their seizure of power. Their song was called the Horst Wessel Song.

Nazis were obsessive abt being the victims. Once in power they put up monuments to their "martyrs." They sang their Horst Wessel Song as they conquered countries & killed millions to say that they, Nazis, were real victims and therefore always innocent.

@mloxton @GottaLaff I called my local GOP org today and left a message. I asked them to please inform the public if they planned to take part in Trump’s bloodbath. Would they begin firing on any of us? Should I hide? Should I hide my grandchildren? I plan to call at least once every week until the election.

We must make them own their complicity with the idea of a bloodbath. Whose blood? Mine? Yours? Do I shoot back?

You think the state GOP President will call me back with an answer?

@christianschwaegerl @ArpComics @jeffjarvis You aren’t having a discourse. You aren’t discussing the article or the journalist, Kathleen Parker. You aren’t discussing the topic of the article. You are trolling someone by pretending what they said about the article is a problem.

It’s you, the troll, who is being told to fuck off. I can believe this has happened before. And as a Caucasian male, I get that you may never put the pieces together.

Peter Baker so angered me last night, counting coughs in Biden's speech. In his writethru, he still does, but above that says: "The prepared text had 80 exclamation points in it and he surely added more on his own as he went along." Indeed.

Someone (follower) just DMd me accusing me of being a 'drag on support' of Dems.

Why? He said "we're all supporting the democracy coalition", & I explained that many in my replies are angry, not supportive. He accused me of something something Hillary's emails re Biden... not sure what that meant, but it was offensive.

If anyone ever accuses me of not supporting Biden in this election, they haven't read my TL or listened to me on air.

Talk about offensive. I blocked.

@GottaLaff Can no one make this man stop talking? He’s making no sense whatsoever and he’s TESTIFYING. I do@not understand why the judge is letting this go on and on and on….

@JaneDoeTheFirst @GottaLaff That’s my question. What the hell is the judge DOING.

MiriShuli,
@MiriShuli@mstdn.social avatar

@GottaLaff but he’s not recapping. He’s providing commentary on phone records not presented during the proceedings.

They hung up on me at 6:57.

MiriShuli,
@MiriShuli@mstdn.social avatar

@GottaLaff This one makes me kinda nuts cause I watched the judge shut down the issue over whether a $100 lunch should have been reported and here he is saying that’s proof of profiting.

Don’t they care the judge was irritated by this assertion?

Maybe I’m just cranky. Given the events of the last few years I assume Judge McAfee is a MAGA and will vote for Trump in Nov. I was born and raised in Alabama. So, i am cranky and bitter.

Y’all ignore me.

MiriShuli,

@GottaLaff @Pourroy He’s already negligent for holding this hearing as a public spectacle.

I am terribly unimpressed. I suspect he’s just looking to make a political name for himself. I expect to see him run as the next MAGA Governor.

I am Old, cold and bitchy today.

I wouldn’t analyze the Michigan primary vote totals (and I mean Republican and Democratic totals added together) too hard as Republicans still are in a contested primary and a whole lot definitely don’t like Trump (see South Carolina) and Democrats are not in a contested primary unless you count Dean Phillips which nobody does. He got fewer votes than Marianne Williamson who dropped out February 7.

That said, nobody should be doing much of anything except helping get out the vote for Democrats.

Every time the execrable Mike Johnson appears on television, I break something. And I am running out of somethings. I don’t understand why the entire Republican party is not in jail for racketeering. I just don’t. And I’m sick of wondering why. I honestly feel that is the only person reacting rationally to our predicament. We should all be screaming from the rafters and demanding DoJ investigate all of these gangsters and their ties to Russia. Stat.

MiriShuli,
@MiriShuli@mstdn.social avatar

@shoq Screaming won’t do anything. Half of DOJ is on the side of the fascists. The reason they rail about the “deep state” is because they ARE the deep state. Find something positive you can actually do or have an effect on. Registrar teens to vote. Work on a local campaign. Don’t scream . Organize.

If TFG becomes the GOP presidential nominee, MSM must be truthful, unwavering, and convincing, because the evidence is clear, he’s a traitor and embodies his confidant’s (Putin) most deviant traits. TFG and Putin are amoral malevolent “macho wannabes”, who have never served their counties militarily, or have even visited the front line. They’re “macho frauds”, read: https://thehill.com/opinion/international/4482897-trump-and-putin-wannabe-macho-men/

@KimPerales You cannot seriously believe the msm will backtrack on the position they staked out in 2015? They have always known what they were doing. Why do you think Welker choose Trump as her 1st interview on MTP? This was not a gaffe. This was a siren, freely choosen to alert his supporters. She is completely on board.
