It absolutely was. A coordinated insurrection, ordered by a #TRE45ON -ous president, at the behest of a hostile foreign power, with the support and active complicity of #TodaysGOP. Why do you think #BenedictDonald and his party LOATHE the Intelligence Community with such a passion? Because we LITERALLY WATCHED him sell America down the river to America's adversaries, since MONITORING THE RUSSIANS HE WAS CONSPIRING WITH was part of our ordinary, due-course mission.
#TodaysGOP went full nazi a while ago. It's part of why I became a #GOPRefugee.

OG #ReaganRepublican here; can confirm.
#TodaysGOP always accuses its oppone ts of that which it is--OPENLY, see #Project2025--planning to do.

#AlligatorAuschwitz: #TodaysGOP can't get around to modernizing America's highways & bridges IN A WHOLE-ASS FOUR-YEAR TERM--but in less than half a year they're building the infrastructure for the #TurdReich's "final solution to America's democracy problem." 😖
@DemocracyMattersALot or @indivisibleteam ought to sell PRO-democracy "alternative merch" that links the GOP brand to the more ACCURATE internment facility.... :blobcatthinkingsunglass:
This is a really crucial understanding. I'd quibble to say that Biden really DID try to put out the fire--within the constraints of a legal system that mandated he use only a bucket brigade.
One of the toughest lessons we need to consider here is that perhaps, as it exists today, the Constitutional order we need to preserve SIMPLY ISN'T CAPABLE OF an adequate response to a threat that was crafted a quarter-millennium later to specifically exploit its vulnerabilities.
I've been suggesting since at least the latter half of Biden's term that the necessary first step toward democracy's victory is recognizing that we've been resolutely trying to keep playing politics...while its enemies ARE PLAYING A DIFFERENT GAME: WAR.
#TodaysGOP is a hostile foreign terrorist organization at war with the United States, and needs to be treated as such: those who ACTUALLY MEANT their Oath "to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against ALL enemies" need to do so, dragging those enemies out of their offices to stand trial for their crimes--then anyone who has run for or been appointed to political office as a #Trumpublican needs to be banned from public office for life, and anyone who has BEEN REGISTERED AS a Republican in the last five years needs to have their right to vote suspended for at least a decade.
One-party rule ON THE LEFT must then be guarded against by making today's corporatist, establishment Democrats one party, progressives another, and maybe allowing others like what Joe Walsh was putting together on the right, and things like PSL on the left, to have a go at it too.
The fire has simply spread too far, and is moving too fast, to be put out under the rules THAT ENABLED IT TO DO SO IN THE FIRST PLACE.

THIS. I'm still a conservative. And when #Trumpublicans still BOTHER TO cosplay as conservatives, they still advance a fair number of policies I like. I didn't leave the Republican Party--the Republican Party LEFT ME.
Because #TodaysGOP are NOT conservatives who want to "make America great again"; they're RACISTS AND FASCISTS who want to burn the Constitution, bring back lynchings (and concentration camps) and make us GROVEL to the #Donjjal. And no amount of lipstick on that pig is ever gonna make it halal.

Or we recognize that WE ARE AT WAR, and the enemy has ALREADY stepped outside the Constitution. The crisis is upon us ANYHOW, and If #TodaysGOP ever got power again, they'd pick right up where they left off at dismantling what remained.
So we step out TOO, for long enough to:
1. Declare the #Trumpublican Party a hostile foreign terrorist organization at war with the United States;
2. Try every member of the administration by military tribunal, for sedition and betrayal of their oath of office (this is where the jail time comes from);
3. Bar anyone who has been elected or appointed to public office at any level (including State/Local/Tribal) under the Republican banner in the last decade from ever holding elected or appointed office again;
4. Disenfranchise anyone who has been registered as a Republican in the last 5 years, for 3 presidential election cycles.
5. Split the Democratic Party into Establishment/Corporatist Dems (in effect, what USED TO BE traditional Republicans) and Progressives--because, as somebody said on PBS a couple years back, "Democracy is a sport that cannot be played if everyone is on the same team," and there ARE legitimate conservative and liberal visions for America. FASCISM JUST AIN'T AMONG THEM.

Quick--before #DementiaDonOld blows the boiler on our gravy train again! #TodaysGOP #TheGriftGoesOn
#TodaysGOP: Making Serfdom Great Again!
I adore my German counterparts, and am deeply grateful for their intelligence contributions over the years--but the fact that it took til they were the second-largest party in government TO DECIDE THE NEO-NAZIS WERE A RIGHT-WING EXTREMIST ORGANIZATION seems a day late and a deutschmark short.
Of course they could rightly respond by pointing out that WE STILL HAVEN'T declared #TodaysGOP a hostile foreign terrorist organization at war with the United States, and IT'S put A LITERAL RUSSIAN ASSET in the White House--TWICE--who's openly declared himself an enemy of the Constitution and is actively dismantling it as we speak. 😖
THIS. It goes beyond the context of the original post, but--assuming we get our democracy back--an essential part of rebuilding decency at the end of this is going to HAVE to be declaring #TodaysGOP a hostile foreign terrorist organization at war with the United States, barring anyone who has held or run for office under its banner in the last decade from holding elected or appointed office for life, and disenfranchising anyone who has been registered as a Republican since the end of the first Trump administration for three presidential election cycles.
The price of trying to end democracy, is you don't get to participate in it anymore.

#TodaysGOP is a hostile foreign terrorist organization at war with the Constitution of the United States. It needs to be banned as such, and anyone who's run under its banner in the last decade disenfranchised for life as a traitor.
Then the Democrats can finally split into Establishment Democrats (who are really Republican Lite ANYHOW) and Progressives, and America will genuinely have a conservative party vs. a liberal party again, who BOTH believe in the Constitution and democracy!

Always has been; always will be.
Who paid for these ‘Mass Deportation Now’ signs?
Delegates waved them while JD Vance’s wife, a first generation American, spoke at the RNC.
This should make you angry.
