It seems like our MAGA posters are either taking breaks or just posting stuff about Democrats. Not too much about the Great One over the last few days.

All 2-3 are banned

True. People flag posts if anyone disagrees. After so many flags people get banned. People here in the echo chamber flag post evertime because honest truthful discussions is dangerous…so thus why they go away.

Not even remotely how it works.
Good disinformation share, though, taking a page out of the poor and abused right wingers' playbook.

There are plainly written rules for the thread. You may cry conspiracy and suppression of free speech etc, but the reality is much simpler. The people flagged and banned are flagged and banned for breaking those rules. It’s called consequence, and I’m glad someone has made them accountable for their words.

Enjoy the echo chamber.

If it’s an echo chamber here, it’s because your ilk keep breaking the rules and getting themselves banned. That’s not liberals’ faults, you can thank your buddies for that.

Thats not how it works.

More people who are ardent PJ fans are likely to be against a lot of what the new regime is doing. This would seem obvious.

Don't have any issues with people having other beliefs.

If you share disinformation constantly, and are generally hateful, the forum is better off without you.
I would argue the world is better off without those people, but we are discussing the forum access here and it is good to see those repeat offenders will need to create a new profile if they want to stir the pot more, here.

How aggrieved can a ruling party be?

Guess we will continue to find out.
Poor, right wingers. All the control and still crying.

Trump’s Government Is Built on Secrecy

The ‘flood the zone’ strategy is designed to grab attention. The real work is being done far from public view.

THE PREVAILING WISDOM about Donald Trump’s first two weeks in office is that he is, to borrow a cliché, flooding the zone—releasing a torrent of information that overwhelms even the most seasoned political observer.

The real story of Trump 2.0 is exactly the opposite.

White House operations have so far been defined not by the spotlight they’ve commanded but by the secrecy they’ve imposed. People inside and outside of government are confused about who is staffing—or even leading—agencies. Federal employees have been thrust into a state of paranoia about the status of their jobs. Even lawmakers say they are utterly in the dark, unable to reach contacts at federal agencies to get key information about which parts of the government are functioning and which aren’t.

“There’s no clarity about which federal funds are frozen and which are left untouched,” Rep. Ritchie Torres told The Bulwark in an interview. “I’m not aware of any member of Congress who has been—any Democratic member of Congress—who’s been kept in the loop about the scope of the executive order.”

The crypticity is a stark difference between Trump 1.0—an often unruly, directionless, and very public mess—and Trump 2.0., which presidential aides are determined to make more efficient and consequential. And it has thrown much of Washington, D.C. into chaos, as lawmakers, civil servants, state and local governments, nonprofits, companies, and even foreign governments scramble to figure out just how dramatically our governing institutions are being altered or altogether undone.

I believe that she is 27 and her husband is 59!

She looks 47 there

Yikes! That’s uncalled for.

THAT you find offensive? He didn’t say she had “blood coming out if her wherever”.

I’d agree, she doesn’t look bad or old per say, just that’s not a 27 year old look.

Plus I’m 52 so 47 is in my sweet spot. Maybe it was a compliment.
