People hate their belief systems being challenged, especially when belief systems or challenges against them are based on fantasy & lies. The less informed & more self-serving people are, the greater the chance they will aggressively embrace fantasy & reject reality. #Resist

100%, Glenn! β€œI have to wonder if these latest revelations about Kavanaugh’s alleged misconduct will finally prompt a long overdue FBI investigation of Kavanaugh”. Shocking new allegations of sexual crimes committed decades ago sparked new calls for Senate & DOJ investigations.

Demands for DOJ & Senate Judiciary investigations of new Brett Kavanaugh misconduct allegations. And while they're at it, how about they investigate the 4500 citizen tips that went un-investigated by the FBI? Because #JusticeMatters youtu.be/9QdhaUl1J7A

Ron DeSantis’ political operation has been recruiting conservative influencers. But the personalities DeSantis is attracting have plenty of problems. It’s like a lot of these washed-up MAGA people who either sell their soul, or are a little, uh, out there.

Patholigical liars like Santos have no place in Congress. Trouble is, too many Repubs are the same or similar.

The U.S. has a deadline to pay its bills. Bad things happen when we don’t pay our bills. What happens if you stop making your car payment? Your car will get repossessed. Bad things happen. Don’t let extreme Republicans make bad things happen to our country. #wednesdaythought

The debt ceiling has been raised or suspended 52 times since 1978: 32 times under Republican Presidents, 20 times under Democratic Presidents. Avoiding a default isn’t a partisan goal – it’s a basic gov’t responsibility. @Morning_Joe

Well said, Glenn. DA Willis has made it clear that indictments for GA election interference are coming for Trump, etc. She is a very careful, thoughtful, understated prosecutor. She has defeated every single witness who was trying to avoid having to appear before the grand jury.

When DA Fani Willis discusses β€œmultiple defendants” in Trump’s Georgia election crimes case, let’s state the obvious: the only way one becomes a β€œdefendant” is by being indicted/charged with a crime. It’s coming. Here’s episode 18 of #TheLegalBreakdown youtu.be/3K2FOLIXQzc

Those who argue that Trump should not be criminally liable because no president in American history has been criminally liable overlook the fact that no president in history has staged an attempted coup to change the outcome of an election.
