My mom: now that the second baby is here, could you imagine your life any other way?

While I don’t agree with the photo, the commenter has a point. The right hasn’t drastically changed views over the years. The racism and bigotry has just gotten louder and more mainstream. Pro ject 2025 isn’t new- it’s been in the works for decades.

Just had a baby on Monday and still in the hospital. But yeah sure, totally cool and normal getting emails from clients and OC.
“Baby here yet? But really, can you answer my question and email me back?“

Kristi Noem says it’s lazy of SOUTH PARK to make fun of women, specifically her for how they look. Maybe. But she seems to think it’s fine to arrest and assault people for how they look.

How long until owning an unapproved book is illegal?
CLASSROOMS WITHOUT BOOKS.
This is the fruit of SB13. Melissa ISD is forbidding class libraries, book bins, & reading corners after book banners forced the law over objections of Texas parents.
The law doesn’t require it. But we @TXFreedomRead told legislators it would happen.

Curious if this is a one off, or did some other school superintendents come in from vacation and caved and gave them the data? We might know a lot less of what is going on in the shadows than we think.

I am no constitutional scholar, but I can't help but feel that "the President gets to dictate what every university can teach and what every television station should broadcast" is closer to what the founding fathers were worried about when it comes to free speech than trigger warnings on syllabi.

I do not like OC recording every phone call.
I don’t like OC’s paralegals reviewing said phone calls.
I think it’s weird that they record their client’s phone calls.
It’s not illegal, it just doesn’t sit well with me.
