I so enjoy watching the downfall of T****ism and FOX rn.

To those who exist in reality like me, & have patiently waited for this thing to get going, I say cheers! 🍾

To those under the thrall of a deadly ideology, I say bad luck. Y'all fucked around & now you're finding out.
Exhibit A.

You gotta watch this clip, it's delightful.

Thank you @GeraldoRivera for simply stating facts to the cowardly Hannity and Bongino.

Geraldo's finest moment on screen, I'd say.

I can only add a few current 1/6 related media clips so am picking them as I go. Hundreds of good interviews & other clips from mainstream media, emerging media & podcasters.

Exhibit B.

Anything by PhD level psychologist Dr Mary L Trump is gold:

Exhibit C.

Karl Racine, AG of DC is awesome. Listen to this:

Exhibit D.

Rachel #Maddow is the best of the best. She adds another angle on all this and it's brilliant:

My apologies. That link was to a random channel's bootleg recording of the Maddow Show on 12/15/21. It will probably be removed and the link will break.

So, once it's ready, please search for the episode here:

Exhibit E.

Stephen Colbert's live monologue on 1/6/21.

A lot to note in this clip. The newspaper is being consistent with other candidates (& AP guidance.)

Note how smooth he tries to be as he lies. Even MORE attention to Mehmet Oz will be good for Democrats. He's a handy distillation of all that is wrong with today's R party.
Mehmet Oz could have used his profile to help save lives in the pandemic so far. If he really wants to do all the things he claims to voters in his campaign.

The lack of such a record should be a core plank of the campaign against him in the PA Sen race.
I have long disregarded Mehmet Oz as anything approaching a credible medical voice in the public sphere.

He trained and worked as a cardiothoracic (heart and lung) surgeon. Let that sink in.

Since Meadows dropped that first bit of his book concerning T**** knowing he had Covid on 9/26/21, his utter stupidity and incompetence has been on display.

He came to power in NC just like his buffoonish protege Madison Cawthorn. Without merit.
Having read up on the b/g and record of both Meadows and Cawthorn, I think they are a textbook example of how white supremacy in the South works (largely under the radar) to send not only racist/fascist but also incompetent men and women to Washington, DC.
But make no mistake: Meadows' incompetence is to our gain. I think the lid has finally been lifted on the shocking evidence the Jan 6 Committee already has & will deploy for both political & prosecutory purposes.

Locking Rs out of the 2022 midterms is a matter of life & death.

IMO this info was attainable without leaking because it can be extrapolated if all you know is the billed amount. In any case, hospitals have to use markups in order to cross-subsidize services that are never paid for. This is a poor argument for single payer, among many.
To clarify, hospital billing markups are not, IMHO, an effective argument for a single payer system. They get portrayed as price gouging, but if you look at them in a politically neutral way, they're more just a reflection of overall provider costs.
I live in a country (NZ) with what Americans would call a single payer healthcare system. It has major problems for individual patients and the country as a whole.

In both countries, AFAIK, a provider is not allowed to turn away a patient in immediate emergency need...

Quick thread about Pence's foreknowledge of the 1/6 Capitol riot.

Grassley walked back his claim within 30 minutes (see the Roll Call thread):

IMO this was a Freudian slip, and it was very telling.
IMO it shows that senior Rs who were & are loyal to T**** had a plan B if Pence decided not to carry out his role in the joint session that day. T**** would have preferred Grassley as the SPPT to take over that role.

IMO, Pence decided to ensure Biden's win was certified.
A lot of my fellow pro-democracy supporters seem to misunderstand exactly what Pence was planning.

He believed certain R Senators would file objections to the EC slate of electors from certain states, triggering a delay while those matters were looked into.

Thread: Margaret Atwood's comments on the rising threat of American Theocracy

We who are now #XGOP and #NeverTrump have a relatively unique take on issues like these. I feel I can add value to the debate, having spent years on the left and the right, and now being indy.
I had already seen the movie of The Handmaid's Tale when I saw resistors appearing in costume at political events.

I thought it was ridiculous and self-defeating for them, and maybe it was, at that time. In 2020 resistors ended up having the last word, thankfully. #YoureFired
As you know, there's still people who think even the recent absurdities expressed by TFG (& his henchmen like Bannon, Flynn, & Meadows) are no big deal & that he's adequately trustworthy, patriotic, & a true defender of the US Constitution.

Such people view me as a traitor.

Thread: Ethan Crumbley's parents

Everyone should read the details of what they did & said when there was a chance to prevent the mass murder.

thedailybeast.com/ethan-crumbley…
I also believe the school administrators erred in allowing him back to class that day.

Telling the parents to get him into counselling within 48 hours was a criminally inadequate response.

There are so many things they should have done instead.
And since day one I've asked myself why this high school didn't have metal detectors. I know that other schools do.

Public alarm at the number of school shootings this year is justified, but let's remember that many schools have effective prevention policies. Others should too!
