If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

If you’re a journalist who’s still on Twitter, from now on in your writing you have to replace “the American people want” with “troll bots in Eastern Europe demand”
Being there makes your judgment suspect. I don’t care how savvy you think you are, you’re marinating in a disinformation campaign.

The dismantling of public health systems is also a reorganizing of the public health economy to Christian grift. It’s the parallel track of dismantling all public social services especially education

The President called for the murder of Congressional Democrats.
Congressional Democrats should call for his immediate removal or resignation.
Congressional Republicans should condemn his statements and call for him to recant them.
It's the very least they should be doing!

A Trump supporter started murdering his way through an assassination list of Democratic law makers FIVE MONTHS AGO. He murdered my colleague Melissa Hortman, and her husband Mark — and attempted to assassinate my dear friend John Hoffman and his wife Yvette. I was also on the hit list. WTF

Gonna have to write this up but I wrote about the dept of education last week. Alas, there will be another news cycle.
Disability education should not be put into HHS because it's not a health issue, it's an education issue. The idea that disability = health is dehumanizing and, frankly, simply wrong.
