Politics is a stopped clock. Both sides can be correct some of the time.
There is no such thing as a trans lesbian regardless of gaslighting. Citizens deserve a safety net.

Not weird when as Quaran explicitly states that all good Muslim men r to convert all people & if they refuse, unalive 🗡️ them (See Lebanaon, Nigeria & Sudan 4 examples). Sharia Law is a VERY real threat AND if it's not a threat (CAIR), why not just pass a bill? 🧐

The sudden Republican fixation on ‘Sharia law’ is getting increasingly weird

Remember 11 years ago, when the right pushed a paranoid threat about the imposition of Islamic law on Americans? Evidently, the absurd fear is back.

What will you do with your flags and your scarves now? Fold them up next to your conscience? Keep them as souvenirs of your delusion? Or will you drag them out again when it’s trendy to hate Jews next season? Your activism is a costume, your outrage a performance, your “values” a fraud.

I loath this 2 faced prick.

IN used to be balanced with moderate Republicans like Richard Lugar and Democrats like the Bayh family. Then 💩 happened. Still, somehow it managed to vote for Obama

The MAGA gov fired all the board of directors at the university

What the IN gov is doing to IU has Ernie Pyle turning in his grave. An amazing institution is being destroyed by the GOPs in the State House

Not in Illinois. Lots of farming here.
Unlikely in Michigan as well-- except for the Dearborn area Muslims that swung the vote.
