Stop Helping Him -- Tom Sullivan and PoliticsGirl - Leigh McGowan

https://digbysblog.net/2025/01/26/stop-helping-him/

Pick a fight
For all their sky-is-falling rhetoric about Project 2025 last year, Democrats (with exceptions) have settled into business as usual in D.C. They just chose old and busted over new hotness for a top Oversight Committee post. It’s what they know. It’s their comfort zone, well-worn groove, rut [your preferred metaphor here]. Well, the rest of us will be feeling discomfort beyond serving in the congressional minority for the forseeable future. If Democrats have another gear, they’d damned well better find it now.

Stop sending me texts for money until you sit down and come up with a mission statement about how you are going to stop Trump and his evil co-conspirators.

Trump bragged at his recent Las Vegas rally about pardoning criminals who attacked cops. I learned about this from Mehdi Hasan, I should have learned about it from every Congressional Democrat.

Lyndsey Graham publicly condemned Trump's pardons of the J6 traitors.
