Just like listing one’s country of birth, which famously never, ever leads to differential treatment at airports!
I spit on the reputation of the U.S. Supreme Court, not that it can get much more degraded than it has already become by the repulsive actions of its disgusting GOP members.
You can hear the transphobic sneer in these words.

I’m honestly shocked Democrats have not attacked Republicans on this more. Symbols make for effective rhetoric.
They’ve cast themselves as Hollywood blockbuster baddies, and the response is…nothing.

Scoop: Trump has started demolishing the White House's East Wing facade to build his ballroom. The president had claimed construction of the $250 million building wouldn’t ‘interfere’ with the existing White House structure. /W @ddiamond.bsky.social wapo.st/4hqBNiU

I was told not to teach a class on the intellectual histories of Zionism and Anti-Zionism next year - not because they doubted I could teach it fairly, but because it would attract too many politicians scrutinizing the syllabus.
A society where that is a valid fear is no longer fully democratic.

The Trump regime is dissolving the Union unilaterally, that's what these actions *are*—repudiation of the American constitutional order vis-a-vis federalism.

We’re going to have to relearn the very hard way that illness during pregnancy can have devastating consequences. See also: the refusal to continue recommending Covid vaccines during pregnancy.
Fevers are dangerous early in pregnancy and Tylenol is the only fever reducer pregnant people are supposed to take. In this freak’s mind, having a baby with congenital anomalies incompatible with life is *less bad* than having a child with autism

In my father's poli sci classroom in 1970s Taiwan, he would always call out the 'spy students' in the back: "Take good notes! Spicy bit!" The class would titter. Even the report-maker would look a bit abashed.
In this A&M student's righteous "Dear Leader" invocation, there was no shame felt at all.

A professor at Texas A&M taught… something related to gender that offended a student, who secretly filmed herself objecting. That video is picked up by TX legislators, who demand her firing, and now the dean and dept head have been fired.

Also totally fine and normal to put the president’s social media accounts in the hands of someone who’s definitely been posting helicopter emojis on his alt for nearly 10 years.

The goal is also to make you question your own grip on rationality.
Am I becoming paranoid, or is my local Home Depot actually infested with hardcore Nazis who signal to each other (or inhabitants of the largely Latino town?) via plant sale prices in the garden section?

Another great (actually awful) aspect of the right being products of 4chan and qanon is that they use obscure memes and hide 1488 references in social media releases and if you try to explain that everyone looks at you like a crazy person because "no normal person would use hidden code like this"
i don't think it's great that DHS is posting obscure New Right memes

kitchen table issue: stop kidnapping my neighbors!
we see very clearly in public polling that people in california and D.C. hate the deployments and that americans broadly disapprove of them, but here we have an assertion that the smart strategy is to avoid any discussion of the situation in favor of a pivot to, you guessed it, kitchen table issues.
If you’re mad about Dems avoiding talking about DC, you can blame the Democratic quants, as demonstrated in this memo from David Shor’s Blue Rose Research
