Boy, North Carolina Republicans sure don't want the attached story to circulate. I sure hope that this stupid threat from their spokesperson doesn't boomerang on them and have a lot more people read and share the story, which once again, is conveniently attached below. That would be a shame.

Republicans are willing to starve poor children to protect rich men who raped children.

It's just another form of child abuse.

The dooming on this site is getting out of control. Every time you post anything about politics some rando condescendingly wonders how you can't possibly know that elections are over and all hope is lost. If you've completely lost hope, I'm sorry, but shut the fuck up, OK? You're not helping.

Here’s the original clip of Ronald Reagan from April 25, 1987, where he delivered a complete and total rebuke against tariffs. Trump's calling Reagan’s words here “FAKE” and “fraudulent.” They’re 100% real. And the original clip is actually far worse for Trump, as much is left out of the ad:

Whoa, why are Republicans bailing out Argentina to the tune of $40,000,000,000.00 when American farmers are being crushed by the economic policies of Trump and Republicans?
We just heard that Republicans want to give Argentina $40 billion in American taxpayer dollars, instead of the original $20 billion.

They're leaving family farmers in the dust and it's egregious.

Today's watch on Hulu was ORIGIN by Ava DuVernay. If you haven't seen it yet, watch. If you have watched it, then watch again. Before they ban it in the USA, like the teaching of the Tuskegee Air Men to incoming air force officers and recruits.

How vile are the Epstein Files that these sniveling republicans would set their own country on fire rather than release them? How many of these republican cowards are in these file how ugly must be their sins!

🚨Day 3 of Donald Trump and MAGA Mike Johnson’s shutdown.

I’m standing in solidarity with the tens of thousands of federal employees and twenty of thousands of military personnel who are missing paychecks because Republicans don’t want to fund public schools, lower costs, or keep health care.

I'm double reposting this thread, because it's amazing. If you have the time, read it.
1/ A longtime Wired editor just wrote a mush-brained essay about how he totally missed the political rot of Silicon Valley (& still doesn't get it).

But in the late 1990s, a Wired journalist warned of a toxic ideology bubbling up from tech. Paulina Borsook has largely been erased. Let's change that

So, instead of talking about white feelings again, I explored my own death threats, and tips for others who are unused to white America.
