They hate all of us and are more than happy to see us suffer if it makes them even 0.1% wealthier.
I know these guys are all dumber than a sack of hammers, but it is fascinating to see the military decide “logistics are gay” in real time

I have approximately zero following on this app, sharing in the hopes it can get in front of the right person. A man I went to college with’s wife was kidnapped by ICE at a green card hearing, and he’s trying to find a reporter who will speak to him about the situation

It doesn't happen often, but I love a Kat explainer thread.
Since this person volunteered to be embarrassed, though I doubt someone this ignorant has any shame over their own stupidity whatsoever, let me explain to you why the firing of Jimmy Kimmel isn’t your standard “canceling” that the Republican’s are all crowing happily about.

As promised, here is a much longer story breaking down the below thread, and the Texas GOP's ongoing efforts to purge dissenters and consolidate power for the far right. One lawmaker, a staunch conservative, called it a "hostile takeover" by "weirdos" and "lunatics."

Wondering where the far-right takeover of the Texas GOP stands? Denton County Republicans just censured the staunch conservative lawmaker behind Texas book ban laws for not voting in lockstep with party leaders, who've deemed him a RINO. Under new rules, a censure = a ban from running in primaries.
