A grim reminder of just how far our “norms” have fallen and how I miss conversations truly centered around political discourse — I feel they’re important to make real change, hard to do when they’re flooding the zone with chaos.

Trump tapped white nationalist Jeremy Carl for Assistant Secretary of State for International Orgs.

He called the Civil Rights Act an “anti-white weapon,” pushed the “great replacement,” called Juneteenth a “race hustle,” and compared J6 defendants to Black defendants in Jim Crow trials.

It is literally zero surprise that they knew their hand-picked climate deniers weren’t putting out real science.
