"Through AUKUS, Biden is aligning with the hard-right governments of Australia and the UK. He's favoring Boris Johnson -- a Brexiteer serial liar, an utterly untrustworthy actor -- and Scott Morrison over our EU allies." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/parliame…
"Trump spent his years in power carrying out Putin's wish list, which included weakening NATO and the EU. Much of this was achieved through Brexit and Trump's alienation of European democracies. Biden was supposed to rectify this, not continue it." patreon.com/posts/parliame…
"Biden's pandering to Boris Johnson goes beyond reestablishing the 'special relationship' between the US and the UK. First of all, Ted Lasso already reestablished the special relationship! Partnering with a hard-right sociopath PM is really unnecessary." patreon.com/posts/parliame…
"We have a lobbyist, Antony Blinken, as the Sec of State under Biden. How is this different from having the CEO of Exxon, Rex Tillerson, as Sec of State under Trump? Blinken behaves like an entrepreneur, not a diplomat." -- @AndreaChalupa on @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/parliame…
"Blinken is acting like the US stands for something. Sadly I don't think we do. Whatever the Biden Doctrine is, whatever face Biden is trying to show, involves deception and abuse and taking our allies for granted." -- @AndreaChalupa on @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/parliame…
More background on Antony Blinken! After Robert Maxwell's death, Blinken's stepfather Pisar went on to be the liaison between Jeffrey Epstein and the French government:

"Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth Macdonough is either a heartless bureaucrat, the type who likes to make the trains run on time, or she's a straight-up Republican plant." -- @AndreaChalupa on @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/parliame…
"In 2001, the GOP fired the Senate Parliamentarian to get tax cuts after Bush lost the popular vote in a contested election. In 2021, the Dems could fire the Senate Parliamentarian while the majority is on their side, but they refuse." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/parliame…
"VP Harris can and should overrule the Senate Parliamentarian. She can and, morally, she must. People are hungry for strength and leadership and it is far past time for the Dems to show some strength and leadership." -- @AndreaChalupa on @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/parliame…

Ridiculous that this took eight months. Biden should have cleaned house immediately. More important removals needed:
* Wray
* DeJoy (via firing Bloom)
* Garland (should have never been hired)
* Walensky (would be *so bipartisan* to fire her; does Biden not value bipartisanship?!)
From today's @gaslitnation: "Every day, we hear this mantra of excuses from Biden bots: 'But it's only been eight months!' Before that it was 'only six months', 'only three months'. How many YEARS are you going to give him before demanding accountability?" patreon.com/posts/fury-558…
On the postal service: "The loss of something as basic as the US postal service, and the fact that the Biden admin won't even fight for *that* to function -- during a pandemic! -- is a signal that elite power players do not care if this country survives." patreon.com/posts/fury-558…

"One of the reasons for the selective amnesia about the multitude of crimes Trump committed is, perversely, because he was banned from Twitter. Twitter didn't just prevent him from posting new tweets, but erased his entire history." --
@gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/fury-558…
"On Twitter, Trump would announce future crimes, comment on ongoing crimes, and confess to past crimes. His accomplices did the same thing, particularly before Jan 6. They announced their plans openly. And now the evidence has been erased." - @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/fury-558…
"They got rid of the evidence trail. They altered collective memory. This, combined with the switch to Biden and the desire of people to forget a traumatic time period, has skewed perspective on how obvious the danger was and who failed to stop it." patreon.com/posts/fury-558…

"Trump's backers unite the worst of humanity: kleptocrats, theocrats, racists, etc. They all use authoritarian tactics. Where they depart from traditional fascists is in their conception of the state. To them, the state is just something to sell." patreon.com/posts/fury-558…
"That's why it was difficult to battle Trump, because there wasn't the same sort of leverage. Trump did not care if the United States collapsed. Chaos and collapse made his crimes and shakedowns easier. Today's GOP does not care either." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/fury-558…
"The GOP does not care if the US collapses. They don't care if there's civil war, if the supply chain is disrupted, if there is mass death and violence. The sovereignty of the US is in grave danger, and it is put there intentionally." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/fury-558…

"The Texas abortion ban gives a fancy, institutionalized spin on the white supremacist terrorism plaguing on country. It's the kind of law terrorists will cling to to justify their violence, which is no longer fringe." -- @AndreaChalupa on @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/fury-558…
"The GOP agenda is a fascist, white terrorist movement hiding behind a veneer of respectability. Look up fascism and you see today's headlines: cult worship of a dictatorial leader, violent suppression and harassment of opposition..." -- @AndreaChalupa patreon.com/posts/fury-558…
"Their backers include SCOTUS, The Federalist Society, The Heritage Foundation, The Family Prayer Breakfast, GOP trifecta states, 'bewildered' NYT columnists, cable news pundits -- a slew of people who choose power and greed over the public good." patreon.com/posts/fury-558…

"George W Bush, like Trump, was an illegitimate president. Like Trump, he destroyed America's standing and made the world less safe by unleashing preventable terror and tragedy." -- @AndreaChalupa on @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/chance-f…
"George W Bush, the illegitimate president who lost the popular vote and may not have really won the electoral college due to Florida, wasted no time starting not one but two wars in his first term in office." -- @AndreaChalupa on @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/chance-f…
"George W Bush – I will keep saying his name because people keep trying to rehabilitate him as a retired painter – will go down with Trump as the two worst presidents in history, nearly back to back." -- @AndreaChalupa on @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/chance-f…
