This NYT story failed the reader by not digging deeper. One subject dropped out of college after one year (five years ago) and lists "Windows" as his skillset. Story should be: young conservatives who blame immigrants for their personal failures and whose lives won't be improved w/ fewer immigrants

The harm that these fucking grifters are doing to children is insane. I wish the worst for them ❤️
South Carolina schools recently sent home unvaccinated kids to stem a growing measles outbreak. It turned out 5 of them were infected and, if they'd been at school, could've unwittingly spread it to their classmates for days.
That kind of precaution is now illegal in Idaho.

This is all about the repugnancy of maga, and where they want to go. The pro life party is only pro life for the lives they deem worthy. They are obviously telling us which groups will no longer have the backing of the state. Wrong color. Wrong lifestyle. Wrong politics. Imperfections of any kind.

Charlie Kirk was a bigot. We are not doing this. He wasn't an activist. He wasn't a political leader. He died on a "Prove Me Wrong" stunt tour where he said hateful racist things to purposely rile people up to go viral & make money. Well, he did go viral.
