After the pardons came the purge: The people who beat police officers and tried to block the democratic transfer of power were spared. The people who did their jobs by prosecuting them for their crimes were punished. Dan Barry @alanfeuer.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/08/24/n...

Here's your current Attorney General trying real hard to erase and rewrite the history of our nation. To make criminals look like Heroes. The beginning of imbedding criminals at every level of our Government from the White House to Mayberry RFD.👽

Republicans, both those who have tacitly & explicitly approved of the pardons & the purge, seem 100% confident that they will never be held accountable, much less face Democrat-led retribution. The 2026 GOP gerrymandering is key to a strategy of never again finding themselves out of power.

That's Montgomery Clift, Honey @magatzapper.bsky.social

You and Maggie have spent the last decade propping him up. Nothing you ever say or do can make up for that.
