Dem Politicians who bend the knee to Trump out of fear or self interest will be called Quislings and that's all there is to it.

If you don't know the word, look it up. We Europeans are sadly familiar with such things due to WWII and the Cold War, and now it is America's turn 😞

"Imagine a future in which Donald Trump gets to choose which non-profits are allowed to exist and any non-profit he, or JD Vance, doesn't like can be labelled a terrorist org and stripped of its tax exempt status."

That's what we need to stop today.

I am not watching ANY MSM or cable election coverage. I am following a chat among paid subscribers of Simon Rosenberg on Hopium Chronicles. Much more upbeat! Here's one post:

Tara McGowan of COURIER news tweeted: "If she wins PA, MI, WI + NE-2, she wins- hands down. We very likely won’t know the results of any of these tonight so keep calm, project confidence + remember that if Trump can’t win fairly, he needs collective fear or resignation to drive momentum around disinfo and recounts." 1/

John Roberts' Sordid Legacy: 14 Pages of Mean Tweets - emptywheel

John Roberts' newfangled presidential immunity is so sordid, he forced prosecutors to spend 14 pages explaining why Trump's attacks on fellow Republicans are not official acts of the President of the United States.

Why No One Went to Prison for Rudy Giuliani's Hunter Biden Corruption - emptywheel

Want to know how Rudy Giuliani was allowed to solicit dirt from Russian spies to help Trump get elected, without accountability? Want to know why Barr is considered a critic of Trump rather than his most corrupt enabler? Ask the journalists who lost interest in that story as soon as Rudy released a laptop full of Hunter Biden's dick pics.  From Russia with Lev begins to reverse all that. But as infuriating as it is, it barely scratches the surface.

How do you get Donald Trump to change a lightbulb?

You don't. He'll lie and say he changed the lightbulb as Republicans eagerly agree while injuring themselves running into each other in the darkness. Then, Democrats will change the lightbulb as Republicans try to stop them. Afterward, Trump will claim he changed the bulb and accuse the Left of being anti-illumination. Finally, JD Vance will claim immigrants break lightbulbs to commit crimes in the dark.
