(Trump is shot by AR-15) Republicans: Let’s wear fake ear bandages to show how much we love Trump. (countless schoolchildren are shot and killed by AR-15s) Republicans: Let’s wear AR-15 pins to show how much we love AR-15s.

Immigrants 1st, then trans and all 8n the queer community, progressives, BIPOC, white people who resist, etc Mass slaughter on a scale unseen in the history of humankind

When politicians talk about rounding up "illegals," arresting them, and sending them back, they are proposing a genocide. There is no way to forcibly remove that number of people without mass slaughter. That's what the GOP was doing last night, but the media is still in "Buddy's old" mode.

On Chris Hayes podcast with Jamelle Bouie they talked about a possible reason for optimism: Project 2025 seems to have deeply penetrated TikTok. Anecdotally, my 15 yr old mentioned to me all the counselors she works with at camp have been talking about it and what rights they’re worried about losing

We've been in the Twilight Zone ever since Trump came down that fucking escalator and launched into a racist tirade against Mexicans...only to be elected president a year later.

Here's a brief explainer for your friends who aren't "into" politics. It's no mystery that they are keeping culture wars front and center because much of what they really want to do would scare even MAGA. www.vox.com/politics/360...

Project 2025: The myths and the factswww.vox.com The sweeping conservative plan for Trump's second term is very real. Here’s what it actually says.

If you’ve shared this but haven’t read it yet, you should. PEOPLE isn’t pulling punches. Just printing “Christian Nationalism” in relation to the platform of a presidential candidate is more than many pubs have done.

You really be listening to all southerners, not just Black ones right now. Everybody oppressed under the GOP in the south. A lot southerners know the whole deal on the brutality of Trumpism, the exact way Trumpists behave, their violent tactics, everything. If you listened, there's tools.

Remember how the right turned Kyle Rittenhouse into a hero? For shooting people at a racial justice protest?

It actually is. I engage you a lot on Trump cuz your deep blood hatred of him is warranted & your analysis on him, humorous or not, is so much clearer than folks who fail to understand what a huge danger he is & act like he continually needs to be held from consequence until he becomes our dictator.

The Trump campaign is a massive safety hazard and liability for the American people. For the good of the country, Mr. Trump should exit the race.

The Trump would-be assassin was a 20-year-old white male registered Republican. Why do I expect his motivation to kill Trump would ignite the violence the right endlessly has talked about?

To bad y'all never listen to Black southerners, because Trump's people have brutally terrorizing us with armed weapons for a while now. We're pretty ready for that coming soon in the wake of the assassination attempt on Trump. Such a shame y'all aren't.

Project 2025 includes the call to “outlaw” porn. If you want to understand what they mean by that? Look to what these groups are already fighting “porn,” and their connections to anti-gender movements outside the US. I start that analysis here:

Convicted felon Donald Trump was supposed to be sentenced today, before the Gang of Six on the stolen supreme court re-wrote the rules for him. There's no rule of law in the United States while the courts remain captured.

Declaring people to be vermin, enemies of the state, or un-human is the sort of language people adopt before they pursue a genocide.

There are probably a minimum of 81 million registered American voters who want Biden to stay in the race. I bet this number is much higher by now.

The Machinists Union just sent a letter to President Biden urging him to stay in the race saying they aren't going to let anyone attack the most pro-union POTUS in American history without a fight.
