Yes, this what I also posted- the target was Zelesnkyy. At least 5 others were killed. Sorry, wasn't trying to post redundantly, I just thought the invocation of Article V was important context. I meant to quote your post but i see it didn't work.

byjove I saw that stuff about the drugs a few weeks, maybe a month ago, whenever it was first reported and I feel like I'm so numb to DT news that it barely even registered. Like, yeah, the WH was a drug den with no oversight, that sounds right. The darkest timeline.

You just know they will put her on the supreme court if he wins. He can. Not. Win.

I think it is just going to be non-stop insanity for the next 8-9 months. I'm surprised this is the first real assassination attempt on him by Russia, honestly. He's still a badass. Ukraine is lucky to have him as their president. God I hope they're able to win this war sooner rather than later, or worse.

I know people are going to dismiss that playbook as hyperbole, and it’s terrifying that it’s not.

Adding to that list, his talks about mass deportations and recent remarks against different languages makes me extra fearful for what his followers feel empowered to do. Such as targeting anyone they deem not appearing as an American citizen.

So apparently there's something called Agenda 47, with a video explainer up on Trump's website. He absolutely can not get a second term.

I think a good third to half people that would vote for that fucking guy because they don't want to vote for Biden would be abhorrent to find out these plans. It's not like they are a secret??! Is main stream media even covering this?

elle I saw a TikTok and it’s been shared on IG from someone who broke down what is in Agenda 47 and it’s terrifying and also disgusting that people a)can come up with that and b)support it.

I hope it does too, but honestly don't know if it'll matter. Some many Republicans will just vote for him because he says he Republican. They'll say we're taking things out of context, that those things really won't happen, or he's just saying these extreme things to show how sick everyone is of the liberal agenda. I truly don't think there's any way to get through to them. And for the conservatives that detest him, they'd rather not vote than vote for anyone that isn't Republican. I've stopped talking to most of my family for this reason.

But I will take conservatives abstaining from voting for president, it's better than voting for Trump.

Just venting here because I don't know anyone else to. In a meeting this morning about a resolution from the our state's SCC about a cease fire, we have people complaining that the resolution, drafted by a Palestinian American here, is "too mean" to President Biden because it says the word we "demand" support of a cease-fire. Don't we all know he's working so so so hard and his job is hard and it's just MEAN when he can't make congress do anything?? Meanwhile, the drafter of the resolution expressed her frustration with her resolution being delayed until now for a vote when she proposed it on Oct 31, the struggles of the wording they keep using equating Palestinians with terrorists by the state party, etc. and instead people are worried about the effing president's feelings if we "make demands." Then people had conversations about the "antisemitism of calling on Israel to stop defending themselves." I might actually lose my shit. I know that large scale bureaucratic stuff like this is important, even though it ultimately doesn't do much direct action, but it never fails to surprise me how much bs can happen when large amounts of people come together trying to work together on anything. RIP my blood pressure.

No but people will tell themselves it'll never happen and look to the wayside because they can't stomach Biden for whatever reason.... even though just about everything we feared before did happen.

I think she called out Schiff’s tactic of running pro Garvey ads to set up a more winnable race for himself in the fall. And the pac attack ads against her were brutal. So I get where she is coming from. But that language is charged and she’s smart enough to know that.
