In the past week or so, the courts have begun to try to set some boundaries on the MuskāMillerāTrump administrationās early blitz of recklessness.
. . .
This judicial review provides at least a small reprieve, hope that some of the administrationās most destructive impulses will be stopped. Or at least pared back. But even with the courts stepping up, and even with the reality of the administrationās ineptitude sinking in, this early MuskāMillerāTrump blitz remains veryāmaybe irreparablyādamaging. Of course, there are a lot of moles to whack: the U.S. Agency for International Development and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau are being dismantled at an alarming rate, and the court system is not known for being nimble. The administration is betting, perhaps rightly, that at least some of its thoughtless, lawless efforts will slip through the cracks.
But even if the courts caught them allāand even if every court facing each lawless escapade said, āNope, thatās not a thingāāstill the entire process would be doing serious damage to our institutions. Think of it as someone spoofing your identity and going on a shopping spree with your credit cards. Even if the goon gets caught, you still have to go store by store to argue that the fraudulent purchase wasnāt legitimate and hope the debt is forgiven. And all the while, perhaps long after all the debts are dealt with, the torrent of uncertainty kills your credit score.
Some. But itās not equitable.
āYou can lead a horse to water, but canāt make it drink.ā
For months, people tried to warn others about p2025, and were ignored. For months, tried to warn others that tariffs would actually make the economy worse, but were ignored. For months, people warned others that Fuckface 45 would be worse for Gaza, but were ignored.
The fucking 3rd party / protest / non voters are also to blame.
For years, we were warning the Dems that they need to represent the working class, and they chose instead keep representing their campaign donors.
So, who is ar fault again?
You are showcasing either malicious revisionism or media illiteracy. D pledged unconditional military aid to Israel. Thereās nothing that indicates that they would have been better for Gaza than Fuckface 45-47. If there was they should have ran on that as their platform. Thereās no such thing as a little genocide. There either is or isnāt. If you canāt understand that after all this time, then you might be suffering from manufactured consent poisoning.
Right, that D platform to continue the ethnic cleansing, forcibly evict Palestinians to surrounding states and turn their homeland into a tourist area for personal enrichment
Thatās literally what was happening for the whole time under Biden?
What do you think Hind died for thanks to Bidens missiles and dollars.
Guess what, itās the politicians job to get the horseās head into the water. If they fail to do that they were either incompetent or didnāt work hard enough. You should go find Chuck Schumerās words from the mid 2010s where he says he doesnāt mind losing blue collar votes.
I always find it very telling when people get mad at those who decided that they couldnāt stomach voting for genocide, instead of getting mad at the party that ran on a pro-genocide platform.
I hope they get what they voted for.
