A lot of us were saying in 2024 that "If #TheOrangeMenace is reelected, we might never have another election again."

It was dismissed as hyperbole. I'm not even sure *I* believed it 100%.

But it's the old question of "who polices the police?" on steroids. They now control EVERY institution that we'd otherwise depend upon to "investigate": The #FBI, #SCotUS... and thanks to a cowed & sycophantic #GOP, not even a "House Oversight Committee" to rein them in. #DisasterPresidency

It is quite insane (and now commonplace) the rate at which #TheOrangeMenace and the #GOP keep passing laws to prevent things THAT AREN'T HAPPENING from happening, while ignoring ACTUAL threats.

Laws to stop "#Trans Athletes" or "#DragQueenStoryTime" to protect kids, but doing NOTHING to stop gun violence in schools.

He is so POSITIVE the 2020 Election was "stolen" (despite ZERO proof) that they are passing laws left & right to make sure it never happens again. #DystopianNightmare

#TheOrangeMenace is shutting down The #DeptOfEducation and the woman he put in charge of destroying her own job, Linda #McMahon, fired 1,300 people, telling the Media:

"Don't worry. We kept all the GOOD people."

Who are the #GoodPeople? Apparently, white men who attended Conservative Christian universities.

"Not good"? Women and people of color. 🤨 #ISmellALawsuit #DisasterPresidency

During #TheOrangeMenace's first term, I half-joked they didn't care if millions of people died of #Covid b/c The Far Right was exploiting it as a means of #PopulationControl.

But here we are in a second term and two more potential #pandemics. If they WANTED to prevent all those deaths, this would be the perfect "Do Over"... a chance to "learn from their mistakes" and take the #BirdFlu & #Measles outbreaks seriously.

But instead, it appears they are out to kill millions more.
