Some of you never paid enough attention to professional wrestling and it shows. A surprising “face turn” always, always, ALWAYS ends back in a return to “heel”.
This is of course a post about Marjorie Taylor Greene.

I *really* do not care that Ian Watkins is dead.
I do really care that prisons are so horrific. As an American, I'm not trashing other countries for having bad prisons.
We have horrific prisons in my country, and that HAS to change.
A lot has to change, but this is change that is on all society.

People keep mentioning the proposal is to only raise taxes on the rich by 2%. It's true that this is tiny in the scheme of things but what the rich are fighting against is the IDEA that any taxes should ever be raised on them. So we're fighting "not the number" but the very idea of taxing the rich.

I’m convinced that understanding millennials requires acknowledging that the only thing that ever exceeded what we were told to expect was the Lord of the Rings extended film trilogy.
But because of that we’re also proud of you for doing your best and achieving all you can against staggering odds.

So, it seems as if I've been added to several lists for White Supremacists, misinformation, etc.
A little weird, but nothing that has had any actual consequences as of yet.
