so if i understand this correctly, gaines has made her career by publicly calling trans athletes predators and threats to women while completely failing to ever mention even once that her mentor/college swimming coach was sexually assaulting and harassing women on the team while she was there?
Riley Gaines climbed the MAGA ladder by vilifying trans women in sports. Now, teammates are speaking out about the real problems on her team: abusive coaching, sexual harassment, eating disorders. ow.ly/o3wq50XuCzp
How right-wing superstar Riley Gaines built an anti-trans empire
The swimmer tied a trans woman for fifth. The MAGA industrial complex took care of the rest.

This is a wonderful time to support journalists who do the work, don’t fuck sources, and actually have moral clarity.

Just a reminder to all Defense Force members, if you commit a crime and you are prosecuted, “I was just obeying orders” will not be an acceptable defense if it was an illegal order.
You are expected to know the Constitution that you’ve sworn to protect.

Republicans first got into bed with Trump out of fanaticism and hyperpartisanship. But over the course of his first failed term, staying the course became incumbent, because he committed and facilitated a lot of crime. Now it’s MUCH worse. www.offmessage.net/p/maga-disar...

American discourse is dominated by salacious stories about privileged people with obvious issues who make their issues everyone else’s problems.
The suffering of normal people gets lost because that’s the nature of this society. It’s sick and someday we’ll get past it.

Nuremburg trials is the moderate position
He said that the agents would throw food at them to eat. The agents threatened to withhold food for a week and to beat him up if he didn't sign deportation papers. He said he saw others refuse and get beaten/receive no food. He signed because he was afraid.
