this is actually the major takeaway from the events in kr today — trump-era right wing nationalism+populism has openly slid into fascism around the world

other places are stealing from his playbook: undermine institutions and break the rules when things don't go your way

whether or not the coup succeeds, and i hope to god it doesn’t, it really feels like the genie’s been let out of the lamp. a coup attempt in a wealthy liberal democracy was entirely unthinkable just 5 years ago, the far right is emboldened globally

gaetz being allowed to withdraw from consideration for AG to avoid the results of an investigation into pedophile + SA allegations is interesting.

people deserve to see the truth of what the Senate found.

I had excellent meetings with Senators yesterday. I appreciate their thoughtful feedback - and the incredible support of so many. While the momentum was strong, it is clear that my confirmation was unfairly becoming a distraction to the critical work of the Trump/Vance Transition. There is no time to waste on a needlessly protracted Washington scuffle, thus I'll be withdrawing my name from consideration to serve as Attorney General. Trump's DOJ must be in place and ready on Day 1.

I remain fully committed to see that Donald J. Trump is the most successful President in history. I will forever be honored that President Trump nominated me to lead the Department of Justice and I'm certain he will Save America.

these are generally fair points but it must be underscored that it was republicans that killed these things, not biden

republicans were able to use the filibuster to sabotage the administration. what he did accomplish was historically successful, but that just doesn't matter now
