MAGA's Sudden "Morality" Act is Bullshit - And We All Know it - jojofromjerz

"I don’t care if you’re a Democrat. I don’t care if you’re a Republican. I don’t care if you’re a one-eyed flying purple people eater or a talking motherfucking horse named Ed—if you sexually assault another human being, if you use power like a skeleton key to slip past someone’s autonomy and treat their body like it’s yours to borrow, break, or bulldoze, you should be held the fuck accountable."

"No delay, no deflection, no dithering, no dodging, no deodorized damage control where a pack of spin-soaked, shit-shuffling sycophants try to perfume the stench of it into something faintly tolerable, some press-release bullshit lacquered to look like accountability."

"Eric Swalwell resigned from Congress in a matter of days. Days. No drawn-out denial tour, no endless spin cycle, no pack of bullshit artists dragging it out until everyone gets bored and moves on. The allegations hit and they stuck, pressure built, and he was gone—because that’s how this is supposed to work. Allegations this serious don’t get shrugged off, they get taken seriously, they get investigated, and you don’t just sit there like nothing’s happening while the world pretends not to see it. He hasn’t been found guilty of anything, but that’s not the point—the allegations and his own acknowledgment were enough to trigger consequences, enough to say you don’t get to carry on like business as usual while this gets sorted out. That’s the baseline. That’s the standard. And it should apply to everyone. Instead, we’ve been stuck in this warped reality Republicans built, where when it’s one of theirs—when it’s Donald Trump—none of that shit matters."
