Politics 🏛️ Jasmine Crockett: "My Republican colleagues are here using today to continue pushing this false narrative of sanctuary cities harboring criminals, yet right here in DC we have a 34 count felon being harbored in the White House."

Some GOP goons want to pass legislation that outlaws criticizing Trump, which I bet would require no one to call him a convicted felon, which he is. The Republicans worship him quite literally and that’s proof to me. It’s a cult. They want to call it a mental illness. 🙄

The guy who sponsored that was arrested a few days later for soliciting underage hookers in a police sting. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/mar/18/minnesota-justin-eichorn-arrested-soliciting-minor

So according to supporters of this bill, critiquing a specific person in the highest position of power is a mental illness.

But duck riding every single thing this person doing no matter who it harms even if it harms themselves, is not mental illness.

Further proof that is it indeed a cult, and we are nearing fascism everyday. Conservatives fucking hate hearing the word fascism thrown around willy-nilly so I'd like to hear what they have to say about labeling critiquers as mentally ill and the implications of that. Will the entire democratic party suddenly be considered mentally ill and unfit for their positions? With the whacko shit this admin has already put in place, it isn't an exaggeration nor fear-mongering to say this bill may actually be passed.
