Frustrated Wannabe Authoritarians

U. S. Rep. Yadira Caraveo lambasted her Republican opponent Tuesday, saying Gabe Evans had not adequately renounced recently publicized social media posts by his now-former political director that were antisemitic and promoted political violence. “He has not said whether he disagrees with her offensive posts or spoken out against antisemitism,” Caraveo, a Democrat, said during a brief online news conference.

Former Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney, a staunch conservative Republican, isn't just targeting Donald Trump. She's out for Sen. Ted Cruz, too, throwing her endorsement behind his opponent, Democrat Colin Allred, because the GOP incumbent can't be trusted to do what's right. Say what you will about Cheney, but she's stepping up at a crucial time for our country. Via WFAA: Their friendship started on the floor of the U.

Vice President Kamala Harris has lost no time blaming former President Donald Trump for the death of a single mother in Georgia after hospital doctors, working under the constraints of an abortion ban, delayed treating her catastrophic infection. The story of Amber Nicole Thurman’s death in August 2022—and its connection to the six-week abortion ban enacted in Georgia the month before she died—was first reported by ProPublica’s Kavitha Surana.

On Monday, JD Vance wrote a more than 1,200 word post on X in response to a second apparent assassination attempt targeting Donald. In it, Vance said the “threat of violence is disgraceful,” called on people to “reject political violence,” and said he admired President Joe Biden for “calling for peace and calm.” Vance’s rejection of political violence would be more persuasive had he not recently endorsed a book that celebrates right-wing political violence and dictators who committed some of the most notorious atrocities of the 20th century.

Self-entitled gazillionaire Elon Musk fcked around and found out with his Harris assassination post, and now the Secret Service is "aware" of his thirsty but dangerous tweet. Later, Musk claimed he was funnin' around after a swift backlash ensued over his "And no one is even trying to assassinate Biden/Kamala" post.

Rep. Lauren Boebert hopes Elon Musk will head a Commission of Oversight to oversee the Secret Service if Trump wins. If Boebert has no confidence in the Secret Service to protect Trump, why is she waiting for January 20th, 2025 (if he is victorious) to do something about it? QUESTION: Do you have confidence that the Secret Service can keep President Trump safe? BOEBERT: I am a member of the Oversight and Accountability Committee and I do not have any such confidence. We had Director Cheadle in the day before she resigned.
