The GQP #Cult (nee party) is in fact embracing the obvious: Welcome to America’s new, official 'party of Trump', AKA #Fascist Party

Psst... Check out the Emperor's New Cognitive Clothes... Don't others see the same thing? Why do so few speak?
GQP "Fake Debate" that is/was might be....
I'm done w/the #GQP "debate". Here's a thin-slice:...
#DeathSantis will make the US Florida, Haley will be rational & compassionate on the world stage, Swampy launched into an attack on the moderators/#Media (NBC) & said #MuskVirus & Tucker C. should be hosts to draw an audience.🤔.
(True, MAGATs are either in Hialeah cheering for #DeathSantis (as they've been doing, in response to his zinging every university and state other than in FL, where he has "cancelled" Palestinian groups. He goofed (not picked up) in saying he'd stop sending money to universities and have the government there defending them [um, with what money?]. Anyway, logic
Niki Haley is tearing Swarmy apart ... (the cheering caught my attention) - swiveled from Swarmy to "we need friends.... partnerships" and just tore Smarmy appoint on his attitudes towards Ukraine & Russa...
Not watching really, as at 10 all the news (MSNBC et al) will have their version of highlights and zingers. Christie now... he is definitely sounding sane and serious after Smarmy & the other guy spouting nonsense... Smarmy getting reprimanded demanding time to respond, now Ron on Putin: "When I'm President that is not going to happen..." Not going to Ukraine, shutting down the border....
🤢 "Money to process more illegal aliens... making it worse!" (So what would he do? Bomb the border? Defund that too, along with education?).
Onto international dynamics, China and Taiwan...
And onto dinner, before I lose my appetite.... In a way Smarmy is right that if the moderators were anti-extinctionist #MuskVirus and pro-looney-tunes #TuckerCarlson, they'd get some MAGAS to watch, and maybe peel off a few from Drumpf. Oh, if only....
Meanwhile, a #Boebert burp...
BREAKING: MAGA Congresswoman Lauren Boebert publicly humiliates herself trying to go head-to-head with Democrat Steny Hoyer — and accidentally proves that she didn't even read the bill she's whining about.

Sorry if this doesn't easily disply; this is from Tribel, which is terrible for formatting and sharing (and some other things, but... OT... ;)
Maybe this will share, as its from the owner/founder of the platform, the only one I've seen who can format posts with line breaks! grrr

BREAKING: Florida Judge Aileen Cannon snaps at Special Counsel Jack Smith
Yin/yang, #justice in reality, vs a zealous #MAGA judge who might as well be part of #TrumpCrimeFamily
This was a 'breaking news' item from #Tribel. From its owner, who is the only one who can use a line break or paragraphs.
And thus is my impression of that platform, about to officially monetize/launch ... Fine for some things, not formatting...

Happy weekend!
Below is the article in its entirety, for anyone for whom the link leads to nowhere (though it is 'public')

BREAKING: Florida Judge Aileen Cannon snaps at Special Counsel Jack Smith with a testy response to Smith’s filing warning Judge Cannon not to be “manipulated” by Donald Trump into delaying his trial until after the 2024 election.
Today, Judge Aileen Cannon fired back at Smith, shamelessly telling Smith that she’s didn’t even bother to read his filing because it is 19 words too long.
Judge Cannon told Special Counsel Smith that his filing “may not exceed 200 words” — and then put Smith on notice that if he submits any more filings that are too long for her liking, “it will be stricken without further notice."
Clearly, this is just another naked attempt by Judge Cannon to play dumb and help Trump delay his trial until after the election.
Instead of responding to the content of Smith’s filing, which attempted to warn her that Trump was doing everything in his power to delay Smith’s other trial in D.C., Judge Cannon decided to attack the messenger.
Her true intentions couldn’t by ANY clearer.

Weekend Update: Mike Johnson Elected as House Speaker, Trump Testifies in Civil Fraud Trial - SNL
##### So ... "Who Is Mike Johnson?" - or "MAGA Mike" as he's now being called by his own #cult - as if that's a compliment ?!
I do hate to be the "bearer of the bad news", sky is falling etc. - on this 'place' where I know many who see my posts are not in the USA, and I apologize for my tendency to be US-centric in news headlines. In the context of a world rife with war, terror, climate disaster, etc. - and also with some good things happening! - things like mass shootings and my country's own Civil War and absurd government 'theater' in our House of Representatives....
#GQPcult - Cartoon by Clay Jones/Claytoonz
So I end my immediate reactions to, and warnings about, the new "Speaker", #MAGAMikeJohnson with this.
#Truth - I've never been able to watch more than 3 minutes or so of #Fox & Fiends without getting nauseous &/or angry at the spread of #disinformation, tribalism, and #TrumpVirus hate... And yet maybe 1/3 of Americans are now partial to their alternate-reality.
Especially the 'false gods' of reality and morality, like Hannity and Carlson. But it's worth a watch to truly see what we now have.
Speaker Johnson Sits Down with Sean Hannity
Here is an Interview with Mike Johnson, on Fox of course ('exclusively'), a full sit-down history.
I'm posting it for anyone who is truly interesting on "who he is" beyond the many summary lists and articles.
Here he is in his comfort zone, reiterating his positions of budget cutting, G-d, and the wonders of the #GQP 'party'/ #cult
I'm a psychologist, so I view this like an intake interview. Hannity pitches softballs, advances his own 'truths' as if they're a given, to which Johnson whole-heartedly agrees and expands.... To me this is the most revealing portrait of an incoming House Speaker I've ever seen, and I came across this by accident, as I'd never intentionally watch Fox or Hannity... But.... Want to know exactly how MAGA Mike views the world, the country, and his mission? This fills in some blanks and reinforces the 'big picture'.

The little-known Louisianan, who won on the first ballot, rallied objections to 2020 election certification, won Trump’s hedged support and has a solidly conservative voting record.
