So is Liz Cheney officially the new John ‘Maverick’ McCain? 🧐
Not saying I like or trust her on anything else but I can totally muster a grain of respect for *any* Republican who’s willing to fight their own party to save America from Trumpism/fascism. It is what it is. 🇺🇸
John McCain more than likely wouldn’t have voted for voting rights either, he voted against MLK day and the 1990 Civil Rights Act. No one expects them to stop being Republicans altogether, the issue is way too many of them are traitors and domestic terrorists now (except Liz 🙃).
That’s who John McCain was too. “Maverick” was always a misnomer.
Absolutely NOT. Scare quotes are always required.
It would’ve been Lindsey Graham but his head got stuck in DT’s ass. 🥴 time.com/4627675/john-m…
I repeat: 🗣 the MSM won’t pass up an opportunity to make the GOP look reasonable when they aren’t. White “moderates” and Never Trumpers are still desperately searching for a McCainesque exit ramp off the Trump train & they aren’t above trying it with a Cheney.
They can’t wait.
I can’t think of 1 currently elected Republican who would, can y’all? 🧐
😏 Don’t all pipe up at once….

A lot of folk seem to think that repeating “I support Trump/DOGE/the GOP’s funding cuts b/c there’s too much fraud, waste & abuse in government” makes them sound reasonable and fiscally responsible when really all they’re doing is parroting Southern Strategy dog whistles. 🙃
For context, watch this👇🏾clip. It’s the most commonly executed mental gymnastics routine in these interviews of FAFO MAGAts who still don’t wanna admit they’ve been brainwashed by the GOP (and Fox) into supporting the dismantling of their entire government-dependent livelihood.🤸 Image
Not only is there a shit ton of fraud/waste/abuse in the private sector that they hypocritically pretend is infallible & superior to the public services they divest from (b/c they think it hurts ‘those’ people), *they* end up reliant on those same underfunded public resources.

“New polls show a majority of Americans say he has overstepped his presidential authority — and hasn’t done enough to address high prices.” | via @politico #InstabilityInChief #BuyersRemorse #GOPOverreach politico.com/news/2025/02/2…Image

Much of the reason White “moderates” are so shellshocked about having no quick reprieve from Project 2025 is they’ve historically been able to evade the worst of GOP policy by “swing” voting for divided govt that allows Ds to rescue them from the R trifectas they keep unleashing.
IOW, they create economic chaos by voting GOP in presidential years (to assert their Whiteness) then crawling back to Ds with their tails between their legs at the midterms b/c they desperately need a bailout from GOP austerity/overreach and want their SS, Medicaid & Medicare. 🙃

If anything good comes from this unmitigated disaster & international fucking embarrassment (part II) I hope it’s that folk who never bothered to understand how American government works or why they should give a damn about the social safety net finally learn it from losing it.
Every time I see an MSM clip of them sorrowfully (but unconvincingly) reporting these #TrumpLayoffs & agency closures/takeovers I roll my eyes damn near out of my head b/c WTF members of the press?! Stop pretending there was “no” way to predict this when Y’ALL fanned the flames.
Then there’s the FAFO folk who actually ordered the code red on their own selves b/c they’ve been terminally brainwashed by 60+ yrs of the GOP Southern Strategy to reflexively hate the federal government (even though they need it) b/c of its interventions re: slavery & Jim Crow. Image

I’m gonna preface this by saying it’s mostly anecdotal but the patients I’m seeing virtually in TX (mostly White, rural/suburban) have been so medically unwell for the last month, primarily upper respiratory and gastrointestinal. Lots of flu, a smattering of COVID and colitis…
At first I was like well yeah it’s winter and cold/flu season plus vaccine refusal is off the charts, so folk aren’t keeping up with COVID boosters or annual flu shots etc., but now that it’s coupled with #InstabilityInChief shuttering public health services & communication... 🥴
And then it got even weirder this week when a patient told me school districts near him were closing in droves and said 650! students were out sick. I googled as soon as the session ended and look: nbcdfw.com/news/local/sch…

🥴 Rinse and repeat. #InstabilityInChief Image
Better yet, since we’re reliving the same pathology (and it’s been so long that the original links no longer work), I’m gonna repost all the #InstabilityInChief essays I wrote @dailykos for posterity’s sake…

Wake me when the folk who are feigning shock, awe and poutrage about Trump doing all the heinous shit he said he was gonna do direct their complaints to the MSM that propagandized them blind (b/c they wanted to be) and is still enabling/sugarcoating fascism/White supremacy.
I mean this in all sincerity b/c I have yet to see a concerted, large scale effort to boycott or even regulate the legacy media outlets that paved the way for social media outlets to finish off the bamboozlement of the masses they started *centuries* ago. Where’s the revolution? Image
I repeat, “America incentivizes brainwashing of the White community,” so there’s no amount of scattering to new social media apps that’s gonna stop the newspapers or Big 3 TV from peddling bullshit that trickles down. Speak with your WALLETS and starve White supremacy of GREEN. Image
