Don’t be surprised or deterred by the fact that Republicans would rather double down on paranoid, persecutory delusions than face their own culpability in Trump’s criminality. Their entire platform is rooted in feigned victimhood, evasion of consequences and blatant lies. Image
The GOP’s had ample opportunity to throw Trump under the bus yet they refuse to do it b/c 1) they’re all partners in crime who are covering each other’s asses and 2) their base is too propagandized and rabid to back away from the ledge. Faced with facts, they retreat to fantasy. Image
It isn’t breaking news that when they can’t successfully self-soothe in the Fox fantasy bubble, they resort to threatening/inciting violence. We’ve all seen this tantrum b4 & it STILL isn’t a valid excuse for letting anyfuckingbody off the hook for crimes against our democracy.
Also I’m not here for any hot takes from ANY elected Republicans who not only voted against Trump’s impeachment/removal but also aided & abetted obstruction of both the Mueller investigation and the GOP’s very own sham Russia probe. They’re all doing CYA until proven otherwise.
Nope. Nope. Nope. Vote them ALL the FUCK OUT and let the DOJ sort out the rest. #GOPGottaGo 🗑 Image
Don’t ever expect mea culpas or epiphanies from this current crop of elected Republicans/Trump loyalists, they willfully chose to buy tickets for & remain aboard this treasonous train wreck even AFTER it was promptly vacated by establishment GOP leaders who saw the carnage ahead. ImageImage
They became and remain loyal to Trump because it was never about him being a paragon of virtue, it was about seizing White Nationalist power by ANY means necessary. His lawlessness is a manifestation of their undue privilege, a refusal to be constrained by law, order, or reality. Image
Bottom line is Trump and his orbit have been under FBI investigation for over 5 years now, so it’s way too late for the GOP’s performative poutrage. 5 months in he was already obstructing justice/under suspicion of espionage, all he’s done since then is add to his rap sheet. ImageImageImageImage
In their infinite hubris, Republicans thought their votes to acquit would put an end to all inquiries and their base’s votes would put Trump back in the WH where he could hide behind “sitting POTUS can’t be indicted” for 4 more years. When that failed they tried an insurrection. Image
Thing is, it’s time to pay the piper. No matter how many lies they tell on his behalf or how loyal they remain to his cult, Trump can’t be saved from his own self/Individual 1. The people who aid, abet and provide cover for him only do it b/c if he goes down, he’ll take them too. Image

After years of xenophobic klan sentiment on the GOP campaign trail, the El Paso shooter drove ~10 hrs to gun down Hispanic Texans on White supremacy/nationalism’s behalf. The anti-Haitian rhetoric propagated by Trump/Vance/MAGA isn’t just a hateful lie, it’s stochastic terrorism.

Nobody gets to pretend the writing hasn’t been on the wall since Birtherism and Trump’s promise to build a wall but make Mexico pay for it. They tell us to “remember the Alamo” but expect us to forget El Paso, Buffalo, Pittsburgh (Tree of Life) and the Atlanta spa shootings.

I don’t wanna hear shit else about Trump or the GOP “toning down their rhetoric” when the volume of the klan rally’s been at 💯 since 9/11 which is technically only a slight uptick from what they’ve been doing to Indigenous, Black and Brown people on American soil for CENTURIES.

If JD doesn’t know any professional women who are happily married moms, he should just say that. 🙄 I had my 1st son 6 weeks before my Masters graduation/3 months before residency. My 2nd son was born 2 weeks before residency graduation. I prioritize EVERYTHING altogether, MFer!

This reminds me of 1 of my fave scenes in 1 of my fave movies, ‘Baby Boom’, when J.C. (Diane) finally accepts motherhood/a career change and tells her male colleagues, “I don’t want it all.” We’ve learned how to juggle kids & work without being miserable. vice.com/en/article/did…
Which is also why chauvinistic jerks like JD have so much shit to talk about us. They’re mad that their ploy to make motherhood & marriage incompatible with a profession has failed miserably and that they still have to compete and share power with us in the workforce and at home.

I recently saw a patient whom I’ve been seeing for almost 6 months and when I asked how he’s been doing since our last visit 6 weeks ago, among a laundry list of stressors, he said “there’s gonna be a civil war and I’m gonna end up dead.” 🥴🫣
It was telling b/c he’d never uttered that type of rhetoric with me before & the only thing that changed between visits was Biden passing the torch to Kamala. He mentioned it in passing then quickly moved onto something else but he said it like civil war was suddenly inevitable.
The other thing is I don’t know his political alignment and we’ve never discussed it but when White men of a certain age and geography say shit like that all I hear is nostalgia for the Confederacy. 🤷🏾‍♀️ They’re reflexively threatening civil war in anticipation of electoral defeat.

This ‘Kamala’ pronunciation/enunciation lesson and group project with @kerrywashington is the bees fucking knees!!! 🔥🐝🔥🐝🔥 #DNC2024
The synergy of the Women’s Suffrage and Mom’s Demand movement themes is stunning. It’s not just that heartbreaking and unjust conditions spurred political action in both instances, it’s that success for both movements requires *smashing the patriarchy into tiny shards of glass*.
She called him an “unserious man” and we went on up to the upper room. 💀☠️

Don’t buy the idea of “red” states perpetually never being in play, especially when said states have also been “blue” and/or purple in recent elections. Don’t buy the idea that time/resources are a “waste” when they’re spent on mobilizing apathetic and/or disenfranchised voters.
Image
And especially don’t buy either of those ideas from someone who identifies as a “MAGA original/founder” who’s only anti-Trump now b/c he turned out to be the colossal fucking disaster and international embarrassment we told them he would be…
🗣️ Do NOT let allegedly reformed Republicans reverse psychology you out of showing up to vote Democratic up & down the ballot in ALL 50 states & DC. Do NOT let the mind fuck of GOP inevitability stop you from turning or keeping your state blue. When WE fight, WE WIN. Vote to WIN.

I don’t doubt that 4 years as VP honed many of Kamala’s skills but I also don’t doubt that the energy the MSM and casual observers are so shocked and awed to see at her 2024 rallies is the EXACT same energy she engendered from her supporters in 2020. Y’all are just late as fuck.
And what chaps my hide about it most is the main justification given is “her 2020 campaign failed” when she actually ended her campaign in December 2019. Primary voting didn’t start until February. She left to wait in the wings for Biden’s win and VP pick. npr.org/2019/12/03/784…
She was already a superstar on the campaign trail & millions of us couldn’t wait to cast a vote for her. We were heartbroken that she left the stage before the rest of the country had a chance to see what we saw, which is also why we were so fired up & ready to go for her as VP.
