That pee tape must be fucking bonkers.

Any blackmail tape doesn't explain everyone else also following in step.

It must be a poo tape

“And what are you gonna do about it?” - Putin, probably
-
-
In fairness, so did a large portion of Americans. Unfortunately, half of us are dumb as fuck and still won’t believe it.

We knew this during his first term.

Yeah but they were hampered by pesky laws and rules last time
-
Putin was still pretending he wasn't going to start a global war before he died, that time though

-
The neutered arm of the government should remain quiet about the ‘arm of Kremlin’ until they decide to actually do something about it.
-
Cool. Are they gonna act like it, or should I expect more texts asking me to donate?
-
No lies detected!
-
Oh no accusations! We've got them now!
-
NO SHIT SHERLOCK to ∞ and beyond.
-
So Democrats are going to act now? Or just everyone tweet the same image and do nothing while oligarching?
-
The Kremlin House
-
Keep it up and it will be the leg too.

McCarthy is turbo-rolling in his grave right now. The cemetery ground trembles from the diesel storm raging beneath.

It is an arm of the US aristocracy
-
Got em!

Arm of Knesset lashes out at arm of Kremlin.

Cold War cosplay reaches Senate floor as Murphy rebrands DC as Little Moscow.

The Republicans are total ghouls, no doubt. But they are consistent on the matter of Russia. They support the Israelis as they're doing their atrocities, while supporting Russia. The Democrats are schizo on the matter, supporting the Israelis while they brutalize the occupied Palestinians, while pretending to be anti-colonial when it comes to Russia.

True. They are all traitors.

So, fucking do something about it.
Not too much can be done, since a ton of the country sat with their thumbs up their asses instead of voting. Republicans control all three branches of government now.
In two years, after permanent damage has been done to the government, the climate, and the economy, we may have another shot at at least slowing things down via Congress IF people actually vote for sane people.
And in four, potentially a new presidency and Congress. But that could be dicy, since there's going to be little stopping corrupt officials from screwing with democratic safeguards now that the government is teeming with freaks and degenerates under its skin.
Aside from lawsuits from Democrats, I think the federal government is going to be in complete freefall for the next two years, bare minimum. Thanks fascists and nonvoters. You really fucked the entire world this time. Fucking malicious idiots.
In two years there might not be elections.
Is your plan to just lay down and die?
A lone voice of reason. Everyone wants to be lazy in November then expect the people who have no power to do something for them in March.
Talk about passing the buck.
Because over half of this country has been convinced that acting against their own interests is in their own interests as long as they "win" some fantasy game. "We showed them!"
They can vocally and actively criticize the DNC leadership for being controlled opposition. Bernie is doing it, why isn’t everyone else?
Got any suggestions?
I do, some less savory ones but the "correct" ones are to unite and help, via a grassroots movement to mobilize the population. Show solidarity, and help groups organize to defend democracy.
Ever notice how when democrats are in power you never catch republicans being like “well what are we supposed to do?” They do absolutely everything in their power to continue to push their agendas. The Democrats and other liberals should stop being big useless babies and actually DO WHAT THEY WERE ELECTED TO DO IDK
We all have suggestions, but we get banned for saying them. So, instead of trying to get people banned, maybe suggest your own solutions.
We're in this mess because First Past The Post (FPTP) voting inherently results in a two-party system, which in turn creates polarization and extremism.
To create lasting, meaningful change we need to move away from FPTP to Rank Choice (my preference) or Proportional Representation. Thankfully, the voting process is determined at the local level (state, county, or city depending on your location) which means the goons taking over the federal government will have a much more difficult time resisting this change.
We need people in local governments pushing for this change. Once we're off FPTP a lot of other changes are going to be easier to make.
See my comment elsewhere in this thread for my response to a similar question asked in a different way.

It's all theatrics.
