We should all recall history...the authoritarians and fascists play the same way...with the same result...massive death and destruction...and then they ultimately are destroyed themselves, followed by a rebuilding of the nation. Long after Napoleon, France had the WWII French resistance..

No words can describe how bizarre it is that Donnie Two Dolls left the European Allies to talk to Vlad the Impaler on the phone...he could not be more inappropriate nor more obviously in the bag for Vlad. Sickening.
Vanessa Theme Ament (@vtament.bsky.social)
From the European Union: Dear Donnie Two-Dolls, how did your meeting with Vlad the Impaler go? Now tell us, what exactly will you be asking of President Zelinskyy, J.D. today and how can we assist him?

AND....Jackie also had lots of plastic surgery too...
Vanessa Theme Ament (@vtament.bsky.social) reply parent
I get it. She has all the intelligence, grace, dignity, background, and is a patron of the arts that both Jack and Jackie were, and always donated her time and money to promote art...like the rose garden and tasteful redecorating of the White House. Right? And she is such an elegant hostess...

The lastest text on Truth Social from Trump is the ranting text of a dysregulated individual who needs DBT training before he does one more impulsive act. Can anyone suggest a therapist...like a niece or someone...who might be able to help this old man before he hurts someone?
Vanessa Theme Ament (@vtament.bsky.social) reply parent
It is ridiculous to assert that a president can do any impulsive action without ever consultant the other co-equal branch of power first. He is not a king nor a god.

I am astonishedthat all of these Republicans who are supporting these unconstitutional actions do not realize that they will be shamed in history and be held accountable at some point. Nowhere in world history do tyrants get away with it. Do they think they will be the exceptions?

When does the talking stop and we begin to realize that this regime is moving forward while we speak with outrage about the Constitution? People talked themselves into a frenzy while Hitler took action. Fear paralyzes and that is how evil wins. We are there. He is moving forwardand we are talking.

I believe there will be many arrests on Saturday. Things are lining up in a very disconcerting way and if people have citizenships in otjer countries, leaving might be a good idea before it becomes impossible. Nome said some things that prompted our Senator to ask a question that got him shackled.
