They've known since 1912. They are fascists. They're working hand in glove with the OPEC cartel. Who's going to stop them?

Unbelievable levels of quid pro quo. Openly selling off regulatory action, with a price tag and everything.

Trump has an incredible ability to recognize where the rules holding American democracy together are weakest and hit them.

Our democracy has been held together with proprietary and gentlemen’s agreements for a long time. As odious as he is, Trump isn’t responsible for that. If he doesn’t crack our democracy, and we don’t fix those holes quickly, somebody will smash it like an egg.

Perhaps Blinken will stop talking about Ukrainian "corruption" given that the GOP has perfected corruption to an art form.

No Koch family? They have large oil and gas interests.

I'm not surprised to see the fossil fuel industry on board with environmental destruction AND fascism. It's entirely on brand for them.
