Do you remember that time Pence tried to see Hamilton and the cast called him out.
Or when McConnell was chased out of a resraurant and not allowed a peaceful meal.
Or when Cruz abandoned Texas during the deep freeze and we shamed him into going home.

Encyclopædia Britannica will continue to use ‘Gulf of Mexico’ for a few reasons:
-We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S.
-The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.’s authority to rename it is ambiguous.

You kill live coverage of his events until he caves, this is not hard if you haven't had your spine removed. You can give the speech you've always wanted to give about freedom and how great the press is instead. Make him be forced to do a barely functional live stream on X.

The rise in global fascism is whiteness eating itself on a very public stage. An open and widespread extinction burst.
This is after many have fought to make it an “invisible” force. That’s why it’s shocking to some of y’all.
Because the nature of it is as NAKED as it is vitriolic now.
