“The world of the heterosexual is a sick and boring life.” — Aunt Ida, “Female Trouble”
Reposted by Tyler Everett Adams
Today, President Trump rescinded Executive Order 14087 signed by former President Biden in October 2022.

What did Executive Order 14087 do?

It lowered drug costs for Americans on Medicare and Medicaid—working class Americans.

This only benefits big pharma.

I don't care what TIME says.

MY Person of the Year is Kamala Harris.

TIME got it wrong.

So did America.

All humans want to control themselves. Strong people control themselves via self-mastery.

Weak people don't have self-mastery, so they attempt to control themselves by controlling others.

Autocrats aren't strong; they're dependent & weak. They need to subvert others' freedom to feel self-control.

Enough GOP pearl clutching over legal norms and Biden’s pardon. They nominated and elected a FELON. They have no credibility on the question of respect for the rule of law.
