So we've had two white male Marine veterans commit mass shootings this weekend in Michigan and North Carolina leaving at least 4 dead and a church burned down.
I'm sure MAGA will declare it an epidemic and push to ban white male Marine veterans from owning guns any day now.

Trump’s long history of being obsessed with eugenics set the tone for his recent press conference, where the president and RFK Jr. framed autism as something to eliminate—rather than what scientists agree it is: a spectrum of neurological differences with a wide range of symptoms.

If Democrats ever get power again there needs to be a proper reckoning. Criminals need to be indicted, prosecuted and convicted for trying to subvert our democracy and rights for Trump.
There is no room for Merrick Garlands and milquetoast centrists anymore.
You need accountability.

Larry Ellison just became the world's richest man. He's in talks to lead an acquisition bid of Tiktok and his son just completed a takeover of Paramount/CBS.
By year's end, he will likely be in control of legacy media and the largest social media platform.

Beyond the immediate use of this to crack down on immigrants and people of color, I will bet you that they're going to target LGBTQ bars and drag events. With direct police powers, they'll have free reign to do whatever they want.

Shocking to see our prime minister acknowledge Israel’s violation of international law but still not announce sanctions, a real two-way arms embargo, recognition of a Palestinian state….ANY actual action.
