Charlie Kirk “speaking in his personal capacity as a 26 year old” lol #RNC2020
Calls Trump the “security guard protecting our values against the angry mob” get this kid Charlie Kirk a Netflix comedy special already #RNC2020Convention
Trump is literally running against unions, his teacher prop speaker asserts they subvert our republic and Trump will destroy them, it’s the blue collar billionaire reporting for duty #RNCConvention2020
I honestly did not think they could come up with a lower wattage show than Diamond & Silk and Scott Baio but they really have scraped the barrel for folks with unfocused eyes and QAnon tattoos haven’t they #RNC2020Convention
Rep @mattgaetz ends his speech by saluting “unbreakable made-in-America strength, strength I see every day in <fans self> Donald J Trump,” really digging deep into the crevices of POTUS there #RNC2020Convention
Trump pronounced it “plosma” #RNCConvention2020
Jim Jordan isn’t going to lose to Matt Gaetz in a dear leader contest #RNCConvention2020
I can’t watch Herschel Walker reading this
#RNCConvention2020
I too would like a chance to see what America would be like without Donald Trump, Ms. Natalie Harp #RNCConvention2020
A proud day for her alma mater Image
Every #RNCConvention2020 speaker who’s mentioned @KamalaHarris tonight has purposely mispronounced her name, including Vernon Jones.

It’s this cycle’s “Barack HUSSEIN Obama”—an attempt to make the Senator seem foreign and scary. It’s anti-Asian. It’s anti-Black. It’s disgusting.
“A man who works tirelessly for you...a man who cares”

Who the hell are they talking about—wait, they mean TRUMP??

#RNCConvention2020
Trump can’t resist praising Erdogan and saying how nice he’s been to him even as he’s talking to Pastor Andrew Brunson, a guy who was literally held hostage by Erdogan’s authoritarian regime

This Nikki Haley speech may be the first time I’ve heard Nancy Pelosi named as an auxiliary member of the Squad #RNCConvention2020
Nikki Haley saying “America is not a racist country, because look I got elected governor,” like clarified butter wouldn’t melt in her mouth

And then talking about how “every Black life matters... Black cops, for example” ughhhhh
#RNCConvention2020
Don Jr rolls out “Beijing Biden” and we see exactly what the face of the fucking Trump campaign is going to look like for Asian Americans

#RNCConvention2020
Tim Scott comes off as a decent guy and totally out of place among these feculent hellspawn by contrast, albeit grossly complicit

#RNCConvention2020

And after massive protests, Xi suddenly rolls back Zero Covid policy with the standard “oh the virus has evolved/our policies have worked” stuff that govs everywhere have done. What are the “Xi can’t possibly pivot or lose face!” maximalists thinking now?
nytimes.com/2022/12/08/wor…
I would’ve thought it would come with a massive vax push but Xi clearly thinks he has power firmly enough in hand that he can shake off whimsically ending a despised public health mandate—and the millions of deaths that will likely follow
What do you think, @Noahpinion? He just Xi’d it away

A gift of @ewarren’s Op-Ed in the @nytimes, in which she gives smart, sound, detailed advice on what Dems should do now that we’ve held the Senate. Sharp analysis on how progressive ideas won voters over, and going further will win more, per her brand.

Curious what part of

—reverse Trump tax giveaways to wealthy
—cut housing and child care costs
—end gerrymandering
—protect abortion rights as kitchen table issue not ideologically
—focus on economic well-being of families
—embrace populist economic policies

you disagree with.
Based on your timeline most of these seem to be things you’d support? Or am I wrong

When the driver of the car decides to play chicken with a police cruiser
It’s a good thing @SenMarkey has no ability to impact my newly acquired social media busi— whoops!

Well at least my satellite broadband startup is oka— dammit

Oh well, I’ve still got my thriving electric transportation company— D’OH ImageImage
No, people in positions of power never abuse them by harassing those who are at the mercy of their authority

If anyone, ANYONE doubted that Trump's 2024 campaign (which is surely coming, now more than ever) was going to lean hard into China-bashing and inflaming anti-Asian xenophobia, stop doubting.

Also, Trump is a racist, that much is plain.
Kind of makes me wonder how newly re-elected Republican congressmember @YoungKimCA feels about her soon-to-rise-again racist overlord ImageImage
Also has anyone told Donald Trump that “young” and “kin” are both actually words in English Image

Lara Logan was CBS News chief foreign affairs correspondent from 2006–2018
I continue to feel sorry for her assault but questions about her journalistic ethics began well before that and then erupted with her Benghazi coverage.

But now who knows how deep Qanon has its claws into her.
It’s quite possible, but it is absolute garbage that Newsmax is trotting her out there while trying to guide her to a coherent on message right wing talking point. Then again I’m sure they’d throw Kanye out there to spout unmedicated antisemitism if he were available.

Pence is no hero for not criming Trump into office, just like Romney and six other GOP senators are no heroes for voting to impeach him and Liz Cheney is no hero for helping investigate a deadly insurrection

But the bar is just so low for Republicans now—we celebrate Team Normal
The truth is of course that the Republican Party will never be normal again. When no more than a token handful of its members are even willing to *investigate* a massive existential crime against democracy, it’s clear it is beyond hope. And this just the most egregious evidence.
The GOP is a party that refuses to acknowledge the clear and present threat of climate change to the humans species

That won’t act to reign in guns even as kids are murdered week after week

That lets its members flout rules and overtly embrace white nationalism without censure
