Do not be obedient in advance. Organize. Trump isn't 'breaking norms' but grifting, lying, and fronting for a Christian Supremacist, economic eugenic Project 2025. Corporate media enable Trump. I follow and share resources many do not see. Porn is blocked

'Southern culture; 'Southern politics.' That would be hate riven racism, antisemitism, anti-LGBTQ and deep misogyny? Women who support a pedophile, sex offender and lifelong predator? I'm impressed. Or is there something else missing?

Everybody knows. Everybody knew before 2016 when the media, the @nytimes.com prioritized Hillary Clinton's fucking emails with front page layouts. Then James Comey sent his illegal letter a week before the election.Trump is losing his mind. But I have little sympathy for Comey &, especially, Bolton

That's all wonderful. It's taken years

Is Andrew being removed from the Royal household, housing and bank accounts?

Will he need to find elsewhere to live?

Will Andrew need to find a real job to make a living or is he still being funded by UK taxpayers?

If so, this doesn't mean a damn thing.

RFK Jr: "Today the average teenager in this country has 50% of the sperm count, 50% of the testosterone of a 65 year old man. Our girls are hitting puberty 6 years early ... our parents aren't having children."

'What’s happening in OH isn’t “religious freedom" but destroying public educ with religious excuses'

Public schools have long been under attack by the Christian Right. Vouchers aren't 'school choice' but for the redistribution of public school money and resources

Ohio Republicans used a life-saving Narcan bill to promote more religious indoctrination

A sneaky amendment to a Narcan bill shows just how far lawmakers will go to privilege faith over actual education
