Something people aren't talking about enough is how often Charlie Kirk invoked the Fifth Amendment when testifying before Congress about the domestic terrorists he provided buses to get to Washington on January 6, 2021.

I know, I know, but: The president of the US saying, literally, "we're going in" in reference to sending the military to an American city for no reason beyond terrorizing the local population should be the most immediately impeachable shit imaginable

DiSabato: Jim Jordan knew that Dr. Strauss was performing unnecessary genital exams. And he absolutely knew that Dr. Strauss was taking showers with us on a daily basis..
He knows that because he was there with us. Jim took showers with us.

With the shameful news about record-high US measles cases, I'm wondering: Was Gilead policy anti-vax? Anti-science, all natural, so seems like yes...but they surely couldn't afford to lose a single child to preventable disease? #handmaidstale

I sent a woman in Georgia bracelets when we were all so hopeful about the election. She just sent this note. I am overwhelmed with sadness, that it felt necessary. Fury, at what is happening in our community. A tiny bit of hope, maybe, that there might be enough sane thinkers to rise up and stop it.
