A "FIFA Peace Prize" is tantamount to getting an "AutoZone Best Actor in a Dramatic Play" award.

And "I want to really save lives" is rich coming from the homicidal slob who is murdering people on fishing boats in the Caribbean.

I am anti fascist. If you choose to shorten that to antifa that is on you. If you choose to be opposed to antifa you are fascist by your choice. You will not win you never have.

So Disney capitulates and joins the ranks of appeasement. It won't be enough it is never enough. Have they forgotten they own the MCU? Do they think these christo-fascists will leave Thor, The God Of Thunder alone?

Let me be clear. Recent attacks by the magat leader and his FCC chair on media companies and individual performers is dangerous. If you do not believe this to be true the door is over there. It is time.

Apparently magats can't take a joke.

If you have tomorrow off, if your kids attend middle school instead of working in a factory, if you have workplace protections, and if you have sick leave and vacation time, thank unions. Even if you don't belong to one, they're responsible for things we all take for granted. And happy #LaborDay.

Texas redistricting maps are the most recent efforts of a group of old white men facing the inexorable slide into a permanent minority. They are holding on by their fingernails to a Leave It To Beaver World. A television fiction.

The political party replete with folks who believe taxation is theft are duped by those who would replace taxes with tariffs.

Doug Wilson’s Idaho evangelical network expanded to DC last month, opening a new church just blocks from the Capitol, aiming to embed Christian nationalism even further into American politics.
