So what do we have? An oligarchy mashed with a kakistocracy littered with facist overtones and gushing Christian nationalism reeking of autocratic despotism sleeping with authoritarianism lead by a malignant narcissistic sociopath. Quite the accomplishment America.

A brilliant compassionate astronaut v an employee of a network that lost an almost $1B lawsuit for lying.

Watch how Senator Mark Kelly absolutely dismantles Peter Doocy’s line of questioning about the government shutdown and healthcare subsidies. Doocy tries his usual gotcha, but Kelly forces the conversation back to what’s at stake for everyday Americans.

The Nobel Peace Prize is rigged against men who express their leadership thru armed occupation and masked thugs

I like how they gave the Nobel Prize to someone fighting for democracy in Venezuela, instead of someone sinking fishing boats off their coast.

FFS. Circumcision leads to Tylenol leads to autism because the Hoarse Whisperer says so. And he'll manufacture evidence to prove it. Hoarse pucky.

Acyn @acyn.bsky.social · 1d

RFK JR: There are many other confirmations -- there are two studies that show children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism. It’s highly likely because they are given Tylenol

What a creative bunch. If it doesn't exist just make it up.

This is an illegal assault on a nonexistent organization but on a philosophy. A lust for blood lies in the only little gram left of a soul in these people
