Alaska brought in a "ringer" to it's medical board to ban health care for trans people. Turns out, he has tons of CSAM material, including of infants. He appears to have committed suicide in a fire.

Tell me again that trans people are the baddies. www.erininthemorning.com/p/anti-trans...

I got a book haul, and I have the decision-making skills of Chidi from The Good Place.

And champing at the bit, to be sure.
Imagine the scandal if it comes out that Trump is receiving Lecanemab (Leqembi) or Donanemab (Kisunla) for dementia.

Jason Lee Van Dyke apparently scrubbed a lot of his social media to run for elected office, so here's a thread of him explaining how much he hates democracy and why he identifies as a fascist. 🧵

The National Security Strategy's Structure and Presumptions - emptywheel
