Critics say the administration is breaking the law and sidestepping the rulemaking process that presidents of both parties have routinely followed.

If this were a Democrat as President, we’d be seeing impeachment, and not just “critics say”

    If this were a Democrat as President, we’d be seeing impeachment, and not just “critics say”

    A Democratic president would be facing impeachment votes at every opportunity regardless of what they did. The MAGA party (formerly the Republican party) is no longer a legitimate political movement in the confines of rules and norms. They are a rogue fascist element that seeks the seizure of total power as quickly as possible. They are at war with all of us and they are winning, in part because the mainstream refuses to act like we are at war.

      I literally had to double check the sub to make sure it wasn’t the onion.

    Sorry, WaPo links will always be totally ignored by me until Jeff Bezos sells the thing to someone who cares about an independant press.

        Reporters are just common workers like you and me, except, they have a ridiculously dangerous job that was so important that it was considered by Thomas Jefferson as the “fourth estate.” The idea behind “democracy dies in darkness” was one born from class struggle, and I think we should see the removal of that slogan in that context.
