This. It’s all a charade aimed purely at totalitarian power.
There’s no consistency from the right because fighting for a set of principles isn’t what they’re about at all.

Their game is power. Plain and simple and cynical. They’ll say anything that hurts the other side. They’ll throw out their “convictions” the moment they no longer serve that purpose.

They want a trans connection so desperately.

When they don't find one, they'll try to manufacture one. They know what they want to do, and they're desperate to find a justification to do it.
Reporters talking with everyone who has ever met the shooter asking if the shooter knew any trans people. Healthy society we have here for sure.

Kirk’s wife knew she married a man who thought innocents killed in school shootings, like my niece Erin, were acceptable casualties for the almighty right to own guns.

So I’ll save my sympathy for her kids, who didn’t choose their parents, and for the husband and daughters my niece left behind.

The hypocrisy of the right has been coddled for long enough to mutate into true psychosis. The live in a completely fabricated reality.

We are still learning about what happened yesterday. However, each passing day one thing gets clearer and clearer : anti-trans grifters have blood on their hands.

It's astounding to me that this never comes up in interviews with Dave or the band. They've memory-holed this whole episode and the hundreds of thousands of deaths their support for this movement caused.

The biggest mistake the world makes is using the words Fox and News in the same sentence. "Numerous controversies & lawsuits surround #RupertMurdoch regarding the accuracy & truthfulness of its reporting."It's blend of opinion, sensationalism & political bias."

Today’s Republican Party is a very different beast from the one Murdoch exercised so much influence over in recent decades. Does the media mogul harbour any regrets?

23 days ago, MAGA assassinated Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark.

Since then, MAGA has inverted the narrative and blamed this on Democrats and another target, @GovTimWalz.

The only technique to break the spell of MAGA's spiritual wickedness in high places is remembrance.

One of my favorite things, but something which also causes me great consternation, is that people seem unwilling to understand that the confidence you feel about your conclusions is just a feeling.

You don't actually know you're right, you're having a feeling.

If only there was an agreement in place where Iran would let international inspectors monitor their nuclear development activities.

Too bad nobody thought of that earlier.
