It's not about winning the election. It's about undermining democracy entirely.

Bob - Garden is Life @trebuchetguy

Meanwhile, MSM cherry picks polls and narratives to show TFG leading. This plays right into the GOP "stolen election" narrative being prepped for 2024. "How could we lose!? You all saw the polls. You all saw how far ahead we were!" MSM has a 'reality debt' problem.

"The most powerful elected Republican in America declared war on the rule of law yesterday.
House Speaker Mike Johnson announced that Congress, on behalf of wannabee “day one” dictator Donald Trump, is going to use every power available to him and his colleagues to nullify America’s court system."

Why America Needs to Know about Trump Getting Spanked in Silk Pajamas

When it comes to seizing power, Republicans apparently believe the rule of law, and thus our democracy, is merely an inconvenient impediment to be brushed aside…

Years ago, the U.S. moved heaven & earth to bring Osama bin Laden to justice. Not because he flew an airplane into the World Trade Center, but because he incited his followers to do it for him.

Right now, the world wonders why the hell Donald Trump is still walking around free.

Given my surname, I find the fact that this worm's scientific name is o.robertsi rather alarming.

Is that the name of the person who discovered it, the name of the host it was found in or the person everyone decided to blame?

Whichever, it wasn't me, mkay?

OMG so true. I grew up in a house with a brown velour sofa and matching armchairs, a beige carpet, brown patterned wallpaper, brown curtains, a teak finish coffee table set and a wood finish TV. I think even our Tupperware was brown. Maybe orange. I forget. I definitely wore some brown corduroy.
