Awesome article. The right is not about anything but racial resentment and white supremacy I said this many times, we should kicked them (confederates) when they were down after the civil war. Instead we gave them a pass because they were “white” Now they metastasized and infected the whole country

Yes. This episode of the Daily had me yelling and spitting. Vought is a Christian nationalist extremist, not a small govt conservative who happens to be Christian.

Thomas Zimmer @thomaszimmer.bsky.social · 1d

We need to talk about Russell Vought – But Properly

Why certain mainstream outlets insist on sanitizing Vought as a devout “small government” conservative – and what actually animates his war against pluralistic democracy.

Some thoughts from my new piece:

Paves the way for the Monster Under the Bed Act

RepMTG:

The Sunshine State is getting it RIGHT! 🌞

Florida is shutting down dangerous weather modification and geoengineering schemes because our skies belong to the people, not globalist elites and their experiments.

Now it’s time to do the same nationwide. My Clear Skies Act will END chemical spraying, geoengineering, and weather manipulation across America for good.

No more tampering. No more lies. Just clear, God-given skies! 🇺🇸☀️

Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.

"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."

James Baldwin to Angela Davis in 1970, discussing white Americans:

Or, to put it another way, as long as white Americans take refuge in their whiteness— for so long as they are unable to walk out of this most monstrous of traps-they will allow millions of people to be slaughtered in their name, and will be manipulated into and surrender themselves to what they will think of-and justify—as a racial war. They will never, so long as their whiteness puts so sinister a distance between themselves and their own experience and the experience of others, feel themselves sufficiently human, sufficiently worthwhile, to become responsible for themselves, their leaders, their country, their children, or their fate. They will perish (as we once put it in our black church) in their sins—that is, in their delusions. And this is happening, needless to say, already, all around us.

What about the wars he’s starting here in the US and his killing people in boats thousands of miles away from the US, while claiming they’re bringing drugs to the US!! The arrogance of those dumb ass people is ridiculous and any fool who believes them is stupid as fuck!!!

THESE IMMORAL, SOULLESS, LAWLESS, ANTI-TRUTH, ANTI-AMERICAN, FASCIST LYING GOP REPUBLICAN TRAITORS will say ANYTHING to obscure the Truth! Trump/GOP NEVER TRIED to improve Health Care in USA, but have only tried for over a decade to destroy Obama's excellent PPACA which saved MILLIONS. FUCK FASCISM!

Even though Trump lied about ending 8 wars, he still didnt get the award. Maybe the committee saw that he started too many wars at home. He sent the US military into US cities, that doesn’t sound like peace to me!!

Arresting entire families during Stalin’s purges served dual goals: it reduced the risk of leaving behind sympathizers and witnesses, and it also instilled fear.

ICE is adding over 41,000 new detention beds in 2025, bringing total capacity to more than 107,000 beds by January 2026.

Trump said he was going to cut spending. Like Reagan, Trump cuts social programs that aid the poor and the elderly and spends that money plus more on pet programs that benefits the rich and powerful. This admin and Congress has already added to the national debt. Wasn't he going to pay that down?

Two MAGA friends talking when 3rd boat was bombed & people murdered. One states he disapproves & USA should intercept boat, not kill people! 2nd MAGA states it was, all people taken off board & then boat destroyed! Apparently ultra MAGA will lie even to other MAGAs to protect the cult! God help us!

Trump'll continue to violate the constitution & break laws until he’s held accountable, that will never happen under this Supreme Court, they’re abusing their positions in favor of Trump. Once he’s gone they’ll suddenly see the light of justice like magic once the political opposition replaces him.
