hm I hate to say it but it's actually very helpful when writers include the LinkedIn in their email signature these days. very easy way to help me tell that you are a human not a bot and a journalist/freelance writer not a comms person.

They didn’t just hate Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, Gretchen Whitmer, and Kamala Harris. They hate me. They hate you. They hate any woman who isn’t performing attractive feminine submission for their pleasure.

When Vance insists, contra the videos, that Good threatened the ICE agent and "had it coming", what he means is that he, like Ross, feels threatened by any woman who has the audacity to use her voice in the public sphere.
This deeply misogynist worldview is core to MAGA.

I went on a wine and abortion pill run today. :D Not having an abortion, but need the Misoprostol for an endometrial scope. I wonder if I'd be able to get it if I lived in a red state. Cheers!

In case anyone needs to hear this: socialism is not communism. And democratic socialism isn't even true socialism. If you're conflating these three ideologies you need to do some reading.
