Donald Trump Jr. and MAGAworld pounced on the news of Joe Biden’s cancer diagnosis with wild speculation about a long term “cover-up” of the former president’s disease.

Hours after Biden’s office announced Sunday that he had been diagnosed with a “more aggressive form” of prostate cancer that has spread to his bones, Trump Jr. boosted a conspiracy that was already circulating among MAGA influencers and pundits.

“What I want to know is how did Dr. Jill Biden miss stage five metastatic cancer or is this yet another coverup???” he wrote on X.

    They’re openly, publicly, and repeatedly saying they’re be impartial and backing that with their actions.

    Martin isn’t going to “go after” anyone.

    But he’s not going to protect incumbents just because they’re incumbents.

    It’s all progressives need to kick out the dinosaurs, we don’t need the party to do it for us, just to not put a gun to our head and say it’s a neoliberal or a Republican.

      They’ve said that before. Somehow they always seem to find a way to come to the rescue for an establishment friendly incumbent.

        They

        Who is “they”? The people no longer in power?

        Fuck them, you’ll never see me defend them.

        But it’s Ken Martin now, and he didnt just show up 3 months ago fully formed…

        We can look at how he ran Minnesota’s state party, turned a purple state blue and made it one of the most progressive states in the country.

        Because while he isn’t overtly progressive, what he cares about is winning elections. And he knows voters want progressive policy and fair primaries.

        It’s not like he’s gonna be our Superman, but after 50+ years of Lex Luther running the party, we really don’t need anything more from the party.

        A fair primary is all it takes to get neoliberals out of office.
