Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

If you want to point out to libs how Biden could easily fix this, the hypothetical is that he could federalize the Texas National Guard and order them to tear all this down.
An actually Dark Brandon: "I'm federalizing the Texas National Guard and I have instructed them to tear down the illegal barbed wire fence installed by the unhinged right-wing Texas governor. He put it up between Texas and New Mexico. I will not allow such a fence between states!..."
Lib Dark Brandon: Biden with laser eyes on a coffee mug.
Dark Brandon used to be a right-wing fever dream, and then the libs discovered it.
Distract a baby - jangle car keys.
Distract a lib - Dark Brandon!
It's so depressing to me how libs religiously follow and are totally outraged by everything related to Trump. They've made him their boogeyman but they refuse to accept the entire republican party is a danger to the country.
Scalise called himself "David Duke without the baggage" and he might become speaker soon but they yawn at stuff like that. Trump is all they care about.
Libs yawned at David Duke too, baggage be damned
Libs are entranced to the Spectacle, both good and bad. If it isn't spectacular it never crosses the lib. X without the baggage is precisely (*sniff*^1^) what liberals want. He's signalling his anti-spectacular-ness. After years of Trump hysteria, it speaks to a genuine desire (*sniff*^1^) for a politics that doesn't constantly drive them to anxiety. The best way I characterize liberal "progress" is letting the old racists/bigots/etc die and society will "naturally" (*sniff*^1^) drive towards progress and Justice^2^. Its self-serving because they don't have to do anything. It's ahistorical; materially ignoring all the others in the past who actively fought for that progress. But I understand the desire for a calm.
^1^ It's *sniff* pure Ideology, you know
^2^ This progress is a material force, which is why the Conservative counter-hysteria about progress has some truth. History Bends Towards Justice, but the liberal forgets the material hands (often bleeding) doing the bending.
