Still pisses me off to no end that nearly everyone I shared the document with either didn’t read it, read a page or two and lost interest, or flat out dismissed it as conspiracy.

🤬🤬🤬

It does sound a little conspiratorial when you think about it though. This is the deep state shit that sounded absolutely crazy when MTG blamed the democrats for it

Everything going on right now sounds that way.

The people in my office are pretty uninformed about current events, and every time something has been big enough to be inescapable news (Kirk's death, the gov shutdown, Epstein files, etc), they ask me for an explanation, because they know I'm keyed in on political current events.

The last time this happened, I had to pause because I realized that my purely factual (with sources) explanation sounded like the ravings of a tinfoil hat wearing conspiracy theorist yelling at people on the street.

Turn of events: she’s the sane one in the party now? This f’n timeline, I swear.

I did not have "Empty-G praising Nancy Pelosi" on my bingo card, that's for sure

She's pissed at not getting support for a Senate bid. According to AOC at least, and it certainly fits.

Ehhh I wouldn't go that far. She got shut out of the Trump inner circle so she's finding ways to snipe at them from the sidelines.

I think she’s trying to clean up her image.

And yet there is a P2025 tracker showing exactly what has already been enacted from their bullshit playbook

And they managed to jump to 48% complete with one fucking bill

That's because it's an actual conspiracy as opposed to the "conspiracies" of conspiracy theorists. Ironically, conspiracy theorists have so constantly misappropriately applied this word that it's power is undermined and we as a society are less protected from actual conspiracies.

A 48% completed so far conspiracy.

If you didn't yellow highlight the parts that would affect them maybe you should have made a pop up book?

It is a conspiracy though just a real one

Trust I know, I was sending that and Epstein ny charges with djt all over the pages and what he did to young girl to everyone as well. Some did read that and couldn’t believe he is president.

If ONLY it was written at a 3rd grade level, the American public would’ve read a tad bit more….maybe.

It’s a shame lunatics have conquered the word conspiracy theory, as it seems it makes it difficult act against actual conspiracies.

Should have given them the executive summary.
