As a Heathen I honor multiple gods but two of the ones I feel closest to are Freyja, the goddess who embodies love, sex, and war, and Eir, the goddess who embodies health and healing. Their relationship with me means a lot and I can't be who I am without them. #Pagan #Heathen #NorseMythology
We have never been shown any of these beautiful Black women wearing MAGA hats. Just like we never saw them actually eating the cats and the dogs. Or using cat litter boxes in classrooms.
Trump: "You have people in Chicago, beautiful Black women wearing a MAGA hat, red MAGA hat -- 'please come Mr Trump, president' -- they call me president, they call me mister, they can call me whatever they want. 'Please come President Trump, please come.' They're begging us to come."

Both parties are okay with the American health care industrial complex being a money-making system focusing on profits instead of actually making people healthier and live better.
Until we stop thinking of medicine as capitalism, we won't be better as a society.

“I cannot support a deal that I was pushing for with the Gang of Eight, because I’m up for reelection in 2026 and people would be Mad At Me, so my boy Timmy K did me a solid in my place. He’s not up until 2030, and y’all are all too stupid to remember this then.”

But I cannot support a deal that still leaves millions of Americans wondering how they are going to pay for their health care or whether they will be able to afford to get sick.

Ah yes Senate Democrats, standing up to Donald Trump wasn't working so caving to this guy was your only option
Every politician gets booed at games at some point, but I genuinely don’t remember an elected official getting booed for this long at a sporting event.

Historians keep screaming about history and yet Democratic Senators just throw up their arm salutes and will claim they had no idea
"So, we'll give you this Enabling Act to do what you want but only for a short time, right?
Oh, you want us to wait in this concentration camp place? Sure. That sounds ok. You'll let us out when you're done protecting Germany, right?"

Shaheen going on Fox News and getting chummy with racist fuckstick Brian Kilmeade is just what the Fascists wanted. Republicans are going to dance on this for months. Our political system is broken beyond repair.
KILMEADE: Schumer says he's voting no. Did you do this outside leadership?
SHAHEEN: No. We kept leadership informed throughout.

The shutdown sucks. Sucks real bad for a lot of Americans.
You know what sucks worse? People dying from not having access to health care.

Maybe caving and giving Fascists what they want without a fight, and getting nothing you're "promised" in return, is a bad idea. We've seen this movie before.

1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

Look I want the shutdown to end as fast as everyone else but saying the deal includes a pinky promise to vote on health care "at a later date" is a non-starter and no Democrat should be making deals you know the administration won't abide by.

The funny thing about anxiety is you could be sitting there, minding your own business, and your brain just says HEY I WONDER WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF YOUR LUNGS STOPPED WORKING and then you're 45 minutes deep into a panic attack checking your SPO2 every 30 seconds so that's awesome

Not ICE. Border Patrol. They’re wearing Border Patrol uniforms with clear Border Patrol patches on them.
There are many videos of ICE officers doing outrageous stuff but a lot of the absolute worst videos are of Border Patrol, who are basically Bovino and Miller’s most aggressive tool right now.

ICE agents in Chicago violently detain a non verbal autistic man for being “non compliant”
He couldn’t “comply” because of his disability…they don’t care
This is not the first time they’ve gone after a disabled person
They target the most vulnerable because it’s an easy way to meet their quota

The wannabe Evangelical Theocracy says no prayer in public which is un-Constitutional but also very on brand for Evangelicals

But Congress hasn't declared war on anyone
Hegseth: "We must wage an all-out campaign to streamline the Pentagon's process, to unshackle our people from unproductive work and to shift our resources from the bureaucracy to the battlefield. Our objection is simple: transform the entire acquisition system to operate on a wartime footing."

Wait so your entire religion is based on a god who raped and impregnated a married, underage girl, then gaslighting everyone INCLUDING HER AND HER HUSBAND that it was totally cool to do, and then murdering that kid 30 years later to "save" everyone?
That's super fucked up.
