Turns out they/them pronouns are useful when you want to distance yourself from responsibility for the war crimes.

Hegseth: "As President Trump always has our back, we always have the back of our commanders who are making decisions in difficult situations. All these strikes, they're making judgement calls ensuring they defend the American people. They've done the right things. We'll keep doing that."

anyone who finds rfk jr. sexually appealing should be added to a publicly accessible registry
motherjones.com Mother Jones @motherjones.com · 23d
The women drawn to RFK Jr. see an intoxicating cocktail of romance and danger—whether it's getting attacked by a yak or texting about taking metaphorical bullets for each other.

But to most others, Kennedy is a reckless conspiracy theorist whose appetite for danger will result in a sicker America.
The inexplicable sex appeal of RFK Jr.
How can such ferocious desire be attached to this man? Two memoirs by the women who love him offer some clues.

BREAKING: At Pope Leo XIV’s urging, U.S. Catholic bishops just delivered the strongest rebuke of a sitting president in Church history — condemning Trump-Vance raids as “inhumane” and “dehumanizing” in a 216–5 vote.
NEW: At Pope Leo’s Urging, Bishops Issue Historic Rebuke of Trump’s Raids
Nearly all U.S. Catholic bishops united in Baltimore to denounce the Trump administration’s “inhumane” deportation campaign — a near-unanimous, unprecedented moral stand against a sitting president.

This month is the 400th anniv of the passing of Sofonisba Anguissola. Art Herstory commemorates the moment with a (very) limited edition hard cover journal.

Order your copy at artherstory.net/product/sofo...

Available on Etsy as well: www.etsy.com/listing/4383...
The front cover of Art Herstory's new Sofonisba Anguissola limited edition lined hard cover journal, set in a Christmassy setting with holly, pinecones, and in the background a tree heavily decorated in red and gold tinsel and balls. The journal cover reproduces an oval self-portrait of the young Sofonisba Anguissola holding a gold medallion with a monogram. The background around the oval-shaped painting is black.

Dunno man, seems a little misleading to write an article about Trump describing activity in Portland and Chicago as “insurrection” with a 33 year old photo of a burning donut shop taken in the 1992 LA Riots (sans caption explaining that) as the header on all your posts about it.
The picture from The article with a picture of an armed men standing in front of a burning donut shop. You must click through to read the caption “ Two National guardsmen stand guard outside a burning donut shop in Los Angeles on April 30, 1992. The National Guard was called in to aid police during the second day of rioting in the city.”

today i learned dorothy thompson was dragging trumpy tradwives in 19-hundred-and-fucking-41 in Harper's, the same magazine which would 79 years later publish a letter decrying precisely this kind of drag as illiberal cancel culture
A screenshot from a 1941 Dorothy Thompson piece for Harper's reads: 'Mrs. E would go Nazi as sure as you are born. That statement surprises you? Mrs. E seems so sweet, so clinging, so cowed. She is. She is a masochist. She is married to a man who never ceases to humiliate her, to lord it over her, to treat her with less consideration than he does his dogs. He is a prominent scientist, and Mrs. E, who married him very young, has persuaded herself that he is a genius, and that there is something of superior womanliness in her utter lack of pride, in her doglike devotion. She speaks disapprovingly of other “masculine” or insufficiently devoted wives. Her husband, however, is bored to death with her. He neglects her completely and she is looking for someone else before whom to pour her ecstatic self-abasement. She will titillate with pleased excitement to the first popular hero who proclaims the basic subordination of women."

SWAWELL: If you don't know how many times Trump's name appears in the Epstein files, it could be at least 1,000 times

PATEL: It's not

SWAWELL: Is it at least 500 times?

PATEL: No

SWALWELL: Is it at least 100 times?

PATEL: No

The president is sending the military to control American cities and if you're a reporter who's framing that illegal power grab as "pushing the boundaries of constitutionality" or "acting boldly to fight crime" or whatever, please go find another line of work where you won't get us all killed.
