The Oregon GOP is, effectively, a terrorist organization.
This is exactly right. The Republican Party is perfectly willing to destroy everything and harm anyone to maintain supremacy.
This isn’t an overreaction. It’s observable. It’s the news.

Losing elections? Cheat the election.
Still lose? Break the election.
STILL lose? Break the government.
STILL lose? Threaten violence.
That’s how government is done in Oregon now.
When do we stop with this “both sides” nonsense?
It’s one side. Authoritarian terrorists.

Where in power, fascism.
Where out of power, terrorism.

The more they lose their grip on their supremacy, the more they’ll threaten violence, the more they’ll enact violence, and the more they’ll talk about civil war.
They’re already talking about it a lot, many with relish.
This isn’t alarmist. It’s the alarm.

We need an opposing party that talks about this for what it is, and fights it as such.
We need an opposing that stops acting as if this is normal.

It’s not enough to have Democrats. We need Democrats who are willing to put this shit down.
We need an opposition party that understands what the nature of the opposition is.

If elements of the government are just going to break the government whenever the government does what they don’t want to, you don’t have a government.
Restoration of the government becomes the government’s one mission.
I feel like this is obvious.

The lawless lawmakers in Oregon responsible for this behavior need to lose their jobs.
If there’s a law under which they can be prosecuted, they must be prosecuted under it.
If there isn’t one, that’s the only law this Oregon government to enact, before any other.

And not for nothing, but this was a climate change bill. There’s a meteor heading towards earth, and the Republican Party is on the side of the meteor.
Time to see them plain for what they are.

Start calling them on their threats!
If they leave again to deny quorum, send law enforcement to go get them.
If they are (as one of them hinted) cop killers, they will go to prison.
And will know them better for who they are.

Republican lawmakers in Oregon refused to do his job and, when one of them was presented with the possibility that he would be forced to do his job, credibly threatened to murder law-enforcement officials, and far-right terror cells organized to help.
That’s the story.
That’s the story.
The bill failed not b/c Republicans decided to dismantle the functioning of government to prevent those votes from going through.
The idea Dems didn’t have votes seems a cover story the Dems are now giving them—else why the dismantling.
No more cover stories. Consequences.

If you’re up against somebody who has plans of negating your win by unlawful means should they lose, you better have a plan for what you’re going to do about that, or you lose even if you win.
We need better Democrats than we’ve been getting.

If you want Democrats to actually win, better support Democrats who can win the fight AFTER the vote.
Or at least who will fight it.
At least admit it’s a fight.

Meanwhile Trump is a pace car showing an amoral ruthless supremacist political party, who will get away with whatever they can get away with, exactly how much they can get away with.
What they can get away with includes: incompetence, bald profiteering, election fraud, and rape.

Trump bets he can get away with it, and then establishment Democrats prove him right. Again and again.
Trump’s actions are the threat; the gun drawn. Establishment Democrats’ cowardice is when the bullet enters your heart.
We need better Democrats.

Why are you giving me the conservative strategy toward minorities? We’re already well aware of it.
