So instead of doing anything about guns they’re planning to push people into homeschooling, probably by letting the schools go to shit even more.

The entire domestic federal law enforcement apparatus is now a white supremacy ethnic-cleansing operation under the control of a right wing podcast host.

I’ve lived in a lot of places with fucked up governments and it never crossed my mind to think that each citizen is personally responsible for overthrowing the government. This kind of thinking is what gets people like Trump elected, this need for division along broad, population level factors.

It has gotten so much worse lately. I’ll type a sentence then between completing it and hitting send it’s already made nonsensical changes.

It is difficult for people who have never faced the prospect of losing their health insurance and housing due to lack of any labor rights at all to understand what many Americans are facing. I’m frustrated by the lack of resistance too but I’m not so ignorant as to think it means we accept this.

They’re just sending them to the most corrupt places on earth because that’s who takes money to violate human rights. My fear is that the next person isn’t going to do enough, quickly enough, to rescue these people. Per the New Yorker some are imprisoned in these new countries.

That would align with Mike Huckabee’s out of seemingly nowhere reassurance that we are totally, definitely not being blackmailed by a foreign government with the Epstein files. Can we just, for one day, not be forced to be a part of Trump’s personal life?

Yup

I’m going to need to see your passport before I read this.

We should totally hear them out. I’m sure there’s a very convincing argument for sending incompetent fools into diplomacy that will in no way further embarrass us.
