This is the lowest of right-wing media, what you’re about to see, but I post it here because it illustrates a point that we need to see. This broadcast of Tim Pool talking to Laura Loomer is massively irresponsible. It encourages violence and the arrest and even the execution of Donald Trump’s enemies. It got scrubbed from You Tube as a violation of their terms. But Loomer pops up down thread on Twitter to say that “Project 2025 is never mentioned.” Perhaps it’s not referenced by name, but the exact points that it states are the ones enumerated in the 900-page treatise. It’s like me talking about life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, without mentioning the Declaration of Independence. You know where I got the phrase. We know where these two got these ideas.
We have seen this done before and it didn't turn out well. pic.twitter.com/P8SC4fkL93

Again, this is un-American to talk about executing political adversaries in the first place. America never used to be this way. Yes, politics has always had an ugly side to it, a “feral” side, as Harry Reid opined. And John McCain said that, “It’s not a nice business that we’re in.” Most businesses aren’t nice, when you get right on down to it, but yes, politics does get more down and dirty than most. Here’s another one.

They’re joking, except they’re not. They’re happy to establish martial law and install Donald as King. And in the era of the immature Mr. Trump, it’s all vulgarity and violence, either actual violence as we saw on January 6, or Trump advocating violence, as he’s done at his rallies. It’s not surprising that somebody mentally unstable finally climbed on a roof and attempted to do violence to him and killed somebody else by accident. The death of the volunteer firefighter in Butler, Pennsylvania is the fruit of Trump’s labors in advocating that Americans take up either fists or arms against other Americans. No other politician in this country has ever done this. Here’s another recent example of a Trump supporter, this time attempting to assault the “fake news.” Gee, I wonder why?
"Beautiful."
"That's beautiful."
"He's on our side."
Trump praises a man at his rally who is actively trying to assault the press.
Trumpism is a cancerous force in America.
You can choose one: violence or democracy.

Utterly appalling. Completely irresponsible. Vintage Trump. And here is J.D. Vance sane-washing all this. Or at least attempting to sane-wash it. This is all high comedy, you see.
BERMAN: Would you describe Trump's posts over the past 48 hours as lifting people up? Reposting QAnon statements & misogynistic memes about Hillary Clinton?
JD VANCE: I'd much rather have a candidate who is willing to tell some jokes
BERMAN: Alright. "Fun and jokes" pic.twitter.com/wmPx89bYTc

Humor is often culturally based and even culturally biased. I see nothing comical in the cruel humor of MAGA and I never have, not since the mockery of the disabled reporter, which got all this rolling. That, in itself, should have been disqualifying. It was not. So now we have a situation where anything goes. The Republicans have had chance after chance to shut Trump down, including two impeachments, and they won’t do it. They seem determined, hell bent even, on backing Trump until he drags them down into the abyss and destroys their party. Where the GOP got this death wish, I don’t know.
You can only push the Overton Window so far and the freaking thing finally shatters. This we have seen with our own eyes the past nine years.
You could not get these morons, and I am including the “fun and jokes” idiot interviewing hillbilly boy (an actual, professional interviewer would have nailed hillbilly boy for being ok with von shitzinpants’ misogyny), a job in a McDonald’s for fuck sake. I would not trust them to know how to scoop my dog’s poop correctly-and no, rolling around in it thereby smearing shit all over themselves is NOT correctly scooping poop.
Lower prices? While we cannot blame all of the supply chain problems on trump’s mishandling of the covid crisis, and it was badly mishandled, we can blame him for the nonexistent recovery during the remainder of his term. His complete lack of any talent whatsoever resulted many more deaths than there should have been, a much longer recovery, the result being that ONCE AGAIN a democrat prez was handed a shit show either created or made worse by a ‘pube administration. Other countries did NOT have the per capita death rates the U.S. did. Other countries recovered MUCH FASTER. Thankfully we have a competent president who has taken the shit show handed to him and has passed laws and put forth E.O.’s that have people employed and unemployment almost below 4%. I’m sorry but what was the unemployment rate during shitzi’s shit show? And how many jobs did he help to create during said shit show?
Oh, hillbilly boy, I have a question for you. Who’s to blame for high prices when craporations are TELLING US they are keeping prices high because consumers will pay them? hmmmmm? No answer for that one is there-not from a fucking magat. I’ve been watching prices go down since President Biden took the shit show trump handed to him and made it into a working economy. When the prices don’t go down I just don’t buy the shit and I make a mental note which craporations no longer receive my custom because there are no longer supply chain issues buggering up the works–merely corporate greed.
You want to know the depressing part about all this? The fucking magats don’t want to hear actual facts and real numbers/statistics. They want to hear blow job “jokes” about two of the most accomplished women in the country. Two women btw who are considerably, off the charts, more accomplished than von shitzinpants.
Oh, they’re ‘just joking’.
We’re not.
Get ready for jail time bozos.
We don’t have to rig the courts, we left them full of republicans.
They convicted on the facts.
Remember the actress on SNL that did the spoof of an Ivanka perfume? I wonder if J.D. Vance would think it’s funny if SNL did a makeup spoof about J.D.’s eyeliner. It would be called “Guyliner – by J.D.” If they really wanted to get down and dirty nasty they could toss in a quick aside at the end about J.D.’s lip gloss, developed in conjunction with his longtime mentor Peter Theil. Again, I doubt J.D. would think THAT would be the least bit funny. In fact I know he wouldn’t. Like the GOP long before MAGA a belief got entrenched they could throw all the below the belt punches they wanted because Democrats wouldn’t punch back. Ever so slowly that’s started to change, and like the schoolyard bully who in reality isn’t anywhere near as tough as the reputation he created when they get punched in the mouth they go whining to mommy! “They hit me BACK! WAHHHHHHH!!!”
