BREAKING NEWS: GOP Ceases to Be Political Party, Declares Violence and Sedition “Legitimate Political Discourse”
In a healthy democracy, the GOP—I mean the institution and its leadership, not its voters—would now be considered a terrorist organization.

Seethe.
It’s official. In endorsing the mob who violently attempted to overthrow the Government, the Republican Party has firmly planted its flag in Authoritarianism. If you care about the Rule of Law, the Constitution, and our Democracy, it’s all hands on deck. This can not stand.

The Republican Party has officially declared the Jan. 6 attack "legitimate political discourse." It is the party's most forceful effort yet to minimize the riot as well as the attempt by Donald Trump and his allies to invalidate the 2020 election.

Checked
Call me crazy…
But the GOP censuring Cheney and Kinzinger, and calling January 6th “legitimate political discourse”, gives me the same vibes as #ReleaseTheMemo.
Like it feels like we JUST watched the pendulum shift, but it’s so big, we just can’t really see it all at once.
Anyone else?
The deadly insurrection that sought to stop the transfer of power was not “legitimate political discourse,” and any persons or groups who say so are declaring war on democracy and aligning themselves with terrorists.
