GOP cult: “Democracy is great…only so long as we can subvert it with lies, cheating, a multitude of Jim Crow voter suppression laws, egregious gerrymandering, obstruction, coups, election interference, election fraud, sedition, insurrection and terrorism to gain power and maintain our corrupt, plutocratic, minority fascist rule!”

Why hasn't Merrick Garland and his DOJ not yet arrested and charged Trump, Jeffery Clark, Mark Meadows, John Eastman and all other accomplices for their involvement in federal election interference and sedition??? WTF? How much more evidence is needed? If Garland doesn't stand up for the rule of law, justice and democracy, this nation is soon doomed.

Silly "Surrender" Sinema: "I strongly support these critical voting rights reform bills!"
Silly "Surrender" Sinema: "I will block passing these critical voting rights reform bills!"
Yeah, let's not abolish the filibuster because of its racist history, which is further perpetuating racism by not abolishing it! That's the warped logic of people like Charlie Brown Manchin and Silly "Surrender" Sinema.
Silly "Surrender" Sinema is once again being disingenuous, knowing and ignoring how the Republican obstructionism that began under Mitch McConnell in 2008 and has only gotten worse is not going to magically cease. She knows and ignores how Republicans have no interest in unity, that they instead seek to profit from divisiveness. She knows and ignores how passage of these voting rights bills is essential to preserving our democracy and republic. She knows and ignores that the filibuster is not a tradition, but a Civil War and Jim Crow relic, the legacy of slavery, White supremacists and White separatists. She dishonestly omits mention of the filibuster carve out for the debt ceiling made just a couple of weeks previous she voted for. And she deliberately neglects to inform us of all the corrupt money she is receiving from Republican donors and corporate lobbyists.
If Manchin and Sinema don't get on board with Biden, Schumer, Pelosi and all the rest of the Democrats, they will not only sink the Democratic Party and themselves, but they will be responsible for sinking democracy and America, too.

Republicans are willing to gain and hold power at any cost...even if the price is our democracy!
Farmer wakes up one morning, goes outside to milk his cows, and discovers his entire herd is missing! So, he then walks over nest door to where the Republican cult lives, notices them grinding a whole bunch of beef into hamburger, and asks them, "Did you see what happened to all my cows?"
Republican cult: "Yeah, they jumped over the moon."
Farmer: "Do you have any actual evidence of that?"
Republican cult: "No, because they landed on the dark side, and you can't see them over there. But we're conducting a bunch of investigations and fraudits, and we're confident evidence will soon emerge to prove it!"
Farmer: "You know, that sounds like a load of manure!"
Republican cult: "Well, that's what we all choose to believe!"

Toxic Trump and Republicans are traitors to America. They've been gaslighting Trump's Russian collusion,. obstruction of justice, and election fraud for years, and continue doing so. Trump should have been impeached and convicted after the Mueller Report, which didn't happen only because of A.G. Barr and Republicans, who were ultimately responsible for that failure. Then Congressional Republicans refused to impeach despite overwhelming evidence of Trump's Ukraine shakedown. The worst was the third time Republicans refused to impeach Trump after he incited a terrorist insurrection against his own government on the nation's Capitol. Republicans refused to even have a BIPARTISAN commission to investigate January 6. Moreover, throughout Trump's term and even after, Republicans have been KNOWINGLY spreading Russian propaganda designed to weaken America, kill Americans. So, when is Merrick Garland and the DOJ going to step up and hold Trump and his Republican accomplices accountable for their many FEDERAL crimes, or is Garland going to set the terrible, horrific precedent that a former President is a King and above the law? Just when America most needed a strong and courageous AG at the DOJ, we instead got a cowardly enabler in Merrick Garland.
