Why should guns have rights? Ridiculous.
Again, Republican voters and legislators have done nothing to improve access to mental health help and enacting and enforcing better gun control laws. "Thoughts and prayers" are useless. How is the bot farm today dearie?

No, I personally know a lot of maga people. Being realistic, not cynical. Have Republican voters demanded stricter gun laws or mental health help? No, they have not. Have Republican legislators worked to solve gun violence? No, they haven't.

Our wedding cost about $100 in 1976. We are still married. Just elope and throw a party.

In 1947 the US War Department released โ€œDonโ€™t Be a Sucker,โ€ now archived by the National Archives. It shows how fascism grows through fear lies and scapegoating. This should not be history. It is a reminder our government once wanted remembered.

Nope. Maga tolerate mass shootings of white children at schools because...2A reasons. They tolerate "collateral damage" if the people they hate get hurt.

It's still a cover-up
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche admits that the DOJ excluded all images showing โ€œdeath, physical abuse, or injuryโ€ from yesterdayโ€™s Epstein files release.
DEATH? The truth is probably far worse than anyone can imagine.
13,000 unredacted mentions and counting.

Wow, NBC edited out the audience booing JD Vance at the Olympics. And this is one of the few remaining news outlets NOT owned by right-wing billionaire Trump sycophants

A reminder to the news media: โ€œconflicting accountsโ€ is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

We have had single digit temps lately. This little dude must know he's not in Tejas anymore.

i personally have not eaten pork in years, as factory farming of pigs, who are as smart as dogs, is cruel. Getting people off of meat won't happen any time soon.

The heads of Amazon, Alphabet, Meta, and Tesla all joined Trump at his inauguration.

Since then, largely thanks to Trump's Big Ugly Bill, their companies have reaped $51B in federal tax breaks โ€” paid for by huge cuts to our social safety net.

This is what oligarchy looks like.
