This can't be repeated often enough. The very people who rail against Drag Queens, trans folks, and other minorities, are the very perpetrators they're constantly ranting about.

Good article for understanding the Republican psyche. Party stalwarts are advising Donny Dipshit to lie better. Don't tell lies that are easily detected, get back to scapegoating, that's what he's good at.

Today I'm honored to report that I have Received the "Daisy Ruth Adkisson Best Son Ever" award. It conveys bragging rights, an air kiss, and a sharp wack to the back of the head. I was the only contestant and the honor will probably be revoked because I'm trans. But hey, it's a great honor.

Living with a 14 yo dog that's almost blind, is diabetic, has Cushing's disease, and an under active thyroid, I find myself constantly checking to see if he's still breathing every 10 minutes. Why can't dogs live much longer?

Will some MAGAite please explain the difference between lining up unarmed people in a ditch and shooting them (Mei Lai) and blowing up a sunken boat with shipwrecked people on board to kill them? Other than the first was done in an actual Congressionally approved war? IMO it's still murder.

My antipathy towards Country Music was caused by the perfidity of the genre. It began by being the music of the common folk. Then most of it's purveyors began turning against anyone appearing or thinking differently.

You cannot have anything without someone's actual labor producing it. Billionaire's "labor" consists of using their position to coerce others to labor for them, generally for a very small and unequal percentage of the profit.

Republican "Marketing 101" is to lie about everything. The No Tax on Tips is mostly a con job. It creates a mental image that tipped employees won't have to pay taxes on those tips, but only a small portion of those people will be eligible for it. 1%ers on the other hand will reap thousands from it.

Typical of Trumplethinskin's racist mindset, he is punishing a group of people for the actions of one individual. If our Afghani allies are mistreated like our Kurdish allies were it will set an example of why people shouldn't ever ally themselves with the US.

Quite the example of the Privileged Class taking care of their own. Cuellar and his wife are criminals, yet Jeffries thinks it's okay not to punish their behavior because they are special, just like himself and Trump.
Did you hear @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social praised the orange stain for pardoning some Democratic criminals? Rep Henry Cuellar & his wife were indicted in March 2024 for accepting hundreds of thousands of dollars in FOREIGN bribes. Hakeem said it’s “exactly the right outcome”.

Karoline Levitt is involved in the long audition for CarShield spokesperson. They have a habit of hiring failed personalities to hype their wares to the MAGA low information consumer. IMO if their spokespersons are known liars their products are probably crap.

As an elderly trans person, I can see and attest that the earlier a trans person gets HRT or starts on hormone blockers the better the physical outcome and that directly affects the mental stability and societal acceptance of the individual. Why is any medical provider against this?

While Venezuela is not a fentanyl-or-cocaine producing country according to the UN, the president of the United States has touted an illegal land invasion of that nation while pardoning the former Honduran president who an American jury convicted of protecting the flow of cocaine to the US.

These are the people who send our military in harms way and expect them to face death and dismemberment with grace, courage, and honor but are afraid to speak against their own tyrannical leader for fear of criticism or job loss. Shame on the Republican Party.

I'm totally sure, yep I'm positive, that this has absolutely nothing to do with the anti-Trump rally held there last weekend. Nor is it because so many woke political rallies are held there. Trumplethinskin wouldn't be that vindictive now would he?

The head of Texas Democratic Party is moving or has moved the State Headquarters to Dallas. Not keeping it in Austin where it might impact the actual seat of governance. They have also decided that advertising is more important than door knocking. Prepare for a complete drubbing next November.

So Trumplethinskin pardoned 2 all white turkeys yesterday, so nothing out of the ordinary, just a regular day in the gilded cage that the Offal Office has become.

"The News" has done a 180° turn from being an independent unbiased reporting of facts in furtherance of an informed public, to being a mouthpiece for fascist Oligarchs which reports untruths as gospel, in order to misinform the public into liking the servitude forced upon them.
