About time that Progressives and Democrats tell them that when they go low, we tell them to STFU racist.

    But if they’re not pretending it’s about ā€œcivilityā€ and ā€œdefending the processā€ then how will they continue to accomplish nothing except passing GOP priorities and throwing trans kids under the bus?

    Lol, imagine thinking the Democratic Party actually exists to opposed the GOP when there’s fifty years worth of history showing they both work for the same Wall St paymasters…

      True dat. Imagine if we actually had people who stood up for the people and told the oligarch toadstool suckers to fuck off instead of just immediately taking their side of shitty ideas in the name of being ā€œbipartisanā€.

      I mean right now where I’m at, the Facist Dark Money groups are running ads about how Mendoza is on tape going, I’m paraphrasing here because I can’t be bothered to remember the exact bullshit quote, ā€œSlap me if anyone says I’m the most bi-partisan.ā€ and here I am going, Yeah, fuck me if I elected someone who the Republicans say they she’s the most bi-partisan would be such a deal breaker.

    Much has been made of the way the Trump administration, returning to power with Project 2025 as its guiding manifesto and Elon Musk as its chainsaw-wielder, went to war with the civil service in the hopes that it could be ground down by purging the dedicated civil servants who’d previously staffed whatever posts were relevant in keeping us free of cyclospora.

      MAGAts have never had any kind of civility. They clutch their pearls like they weren’t using ever curse and slur in the book 5 minutes ago, but they haven’t been civil in 15 years, they’re not going to start now.
