The media have quite deliberately paved the way for authoritarian kakistocracy in this country. It is unforgivable.

And depicting this predatory monster as a radiant yet humble saint holding a rosary on the front cover as the intro to your puff piece? Utterly nauseating. My god.

A 15-year-old autistic boy walked away from his mother's fruit stand. When she called police for help, they found him, called ICE, and locked him away for weeks.

Unconscionable.
Emmanuel, a 15-year-old with intellectual disabilities, wandered away from his mom’s fruit stand in October.

She reported him missing to Houston police. But instead of reuniting them, the city turned him over to ICE.

“They’re failing all of us,” his mom said.

So they've reached the FO phase of their experiment in allowing the narcissist sociopath a pass on every high crime and misdemeanor, and openly reveling in the suffering of everyday Americans for the sheer cruelty of it all.

This should cost them far more than their seats, IMO.

Also, cry harder.

You know stories of Black mother's hospital nightmares are not new. America has a history of disrespecting our reproductive rights. Of testing gynecological procedures on us (sans anesthesia). Of pushing the lie that "we don't feel pain, the way other women do."

I think we should be a LOT louder about the people who are the loudest anti-trans crusaders being the same people protecting a ring of ACTUAL child predators. Like, very super loud so your bananapants aunt starts to feel like you maybe think SHE’S a child predator if she doesn’t knock it tf off
An incident in a locker room has always been key to Riley Gaines’ anti-trans fame.

But @msjpauly.bsky.social spoke to swimmers who were present at the same 2022 meet. They shared a very different narrative.
How right-wing superstar Riley Gaines built an anti-trans empire
The swimmer tied a trans woman for fifth. The MAGA industrial complex took care of the rest.

Let me get this straight. The federal government couldn't even suggest that people wear masks during a pandemic without massive blowback, but now it presumes to impose codes of dress and behavior on air travelers.

These are suggestions now, laws tomorrow.

You know, fascism.

It is particularly galling that Trump is calling for the execution of people who actually served honorably in the military, while he took a bone spur exemption and famously boasted that his Vietnam was dodging syphilis in 70s New York.

Just a historically loathsome figure by any measure.

Johnson seems really upset that other politicians are reminding people about the solemn oaths they swore to protect and defend the Constitution from all enemies, foreign and domestic.

Huh. I wonder why that seemed to hit such a nerve for a self-proclaimed Christian who violates his own oath daily.

Just so we’re ALL clear: the President of the United States made death threats toward sitting Democratic members of Congress.

But they’re always claiming Democrats are the dangerous ones, right?

"Osterholm sees the change as part of a plan to get autism into the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program, which he said would bankrupt the program and force manufacturers of childhood vaccines out of the U.S. market."🚨

Wake up, & stop voting your single issue nonsense. Or not voting at all.
