I share memes and occasional videos of cute animals, interspersed with things I am ticked off or passionate about. I don’t provide legal or any other expert advice on social media.
Imagine being so insecure in your patriarchal, white maleness that you have to ban words that suggest anyone but a white man can actually exist in our society.
According to a new court filing, the Trump administration has a six-page list of banned words that Head Start locations are forbidden from using when describing their programs.
Among the censored words: "disability," "race," "women," "trauma," "Gulf of Mexico." Short thread with the full list. 🧵

I’ve been told by these types of intransigent MAGAts that I have TDS, shouldn’t go NC “over politics,” need to go to church and stop letting the leftist MSM brainwash me.
That’s the deal w/ cultists. The problem is everyone else.

MAGAts who were unhinged in the pandemic at the sight of mask-wearing people minding their own business on the street, planes, and such are so quiet now about mask-wearing thugs manhandling and arresting random people.
It’s like they were in it for the racism all along.

MAGA/GOP are devoid of any moral compass or even the ability to be self-reflective. I’d be willing to bet this Boomer calls himself a “good Christian,” too.
For all the MAGA fuckers who love your Amazon, maybe dont call ICE on the drivers.
You cant have same day delivery, the bros wont deliver a packace to save their lives.

A MAGA grandpa in Wyoming called 911 and told the operator to “call ICE” on an Amazon delivery driver simply for speaking Spanish.
“There’s this guy in front of my house who can’t speak English. You need to call ICE on him.”

It took way to find a video that didn’t tequire me to sugn into YouTube. This tiny blonde woman in scrubs was manhandled (in Florida of all places) by ICE and CBP for no reason. Look at the disproportionate response to what was apparently a random arrest. fox5sandiego.com/news/nationa...

Not news. Instead, what I noted from this photo is how the convicted felon claims to be 6’3”. Gavin Newsom claims the same height.
Clearly, both claims cannot be true.

Today, @governor.ca.gov Gavin Newsom held productive meetings to secure funding for LA's recovery.
Trump turned his back on survivors by refusing to even meet with us.
His promise to ‘take care’ of survivors was clearly a lie.

This picture says it all. Fired in close range, directly at someone’s face, “non-lethal” ammo can still cause permanent blindness, knock out teeth, and break noses. These are not well-trained agents of a healthy democracy. They are agents of fascism.
Pastor Jorge Bautista was telling a Border Patrol agent "we come in peace" when the agent fired toxic powder at him, leaving him struggling to breathe.
“No one should be assaulted for being out there protesting,” he says.

If done by drone, the idiot POtuS says it’s not war. If the people aren’t white, he doesn’t think it’s murder. He is, above all, an ignorant draft-dodging, Hitler-admiring, mentally incompetent, verbally-incontinent racist.

If it were anyone but the convicted felon, we’d see lots of coverage about how the guard deployment was the problem in the 1st place. Recall that Biden was blamed for the way the troop withdrawal from Afghanistan was bungled? The “forgotten” fact was that also was Donny’s decision in the 1st place

Not that it needs to be said, because it’s so obvious to anyone who is not in the MAGA cult, but “Perhaps the morons who tore down the east wing should have waited until there were actual plans for what would replace it.”
Even the architect Trump hired to build his massive addition to the White House objects to the president's vision. The two have argued about the size of the 90,000-sq-foot project that would dwarf the mansion. @jonathanreports.bsky.social @ddiamond.bsky.social www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
Trump wants a bigger White House ballroom. His architect disagrees.
The president and James McCrery had argued in recent weeks over the project’s size, with Trump pushing him to expand the ballroom.

Looking forward to the case entitled “John Does 1-10,000 and The People of the United States vs. Donald J Trump, Kristi Noem, Stephen Miller, and every other motherfucker who was complicit”
Earlier this year, the United States deported 252 Venezuelans to El Salvador and paid its government to imprison them. Now two human-rights organizations have found that all of those men were physically abused, Conor Friedersdorf writes:
What the Deported Venezuelans Went Through in El Salvador
Forty men sent to El Salvador by the Trump administration have shared disturbing accounts of abuse by a regime that America paid to imprison them.

The US is officially and openly governed by white supremacists. This is a step to normalizing state-sponsored racism and bigotry. The ICE raids are already fascistic ethnic and ideological cleansing.

Even if Megyn believed in evolution, she’d still have to miss the modern science that shows human brains don’t fully mature in executive function until our mid-20s. I guess she’ll just shrug if her daughter ends up teenage mother? Cuz if so, that baby’s gonna get born. It’s how MAGA works.
Megyn Kelly said she thinks “there’s a difference between a 5 year old and a 15 year old” when it comes to sexual abuse. Megyn Kelly has a 14 year old daughter. Megyn Kelly is going to Hell.
