That one guy that you know from somewhere but you're not sure where. Part-time vegetarian, full time geeky dad, transplant from everywhere, rabidly liberal Midwesterner, rock nerd, voted most likely to be called "Chris" or "Steve" quite a bit.
Absolutely disgusting - the WH's list itself is so petty, so venal, so anti-historical I would be surprised if Tacopedo himself penned it.

A man who holds the title of President of the United States, who took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution, who then says he doesn’t know if he’d uphold the Constitution, is unfit to be president and should be removed.

This administration, in the direct words of EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin, believes that equal outcomes for ALL is equivalent to discrimination against white people because nonwhites benefit as well. This is as pure as apartheid logic as it gets.

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

When the freakin' Auschwitz Memorial starts calling out the horrors we're seeing in politics right now, maybe it's time for some reflection?
Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.
This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.
Auschwitz took time.
