If you steal $1000, you can be sent to prison. When health insurance companies steal $50,000,000,000, they get tax breaks, subsidies and government contracts, while the people they steal from die or go into debt. But keep blaming immigrants and poor people for rising crime.

Lauren Boebert is a high school dropout.

I don't say this to shame people who don't finish their education. But it helps underscore how all the chitter chatter about "DEI" has nothing to do with merit.

It's just a racial slur.

Among the many evils of "crisis pregnancy centers": they are not medical providers and so do not follow HIPAA or medical privacy ethics. Instead, they gleefully give away (to right-wing orgs) and sell (to data brokers) all information you give them. They should be illegal.

If you paid attention to Trump's side of the debate, he had the same underlying problem Biden did, where over and over he would start a sentence and realize he couldn't say or remember the words that would come next, but where Biden stalled out, Trump just switched to blurting something unrelated

I've written for years about the Christian right's calls for "spiritual warfare" against demonic enemies of Christian America. They used to claim their struggle is against "powers and principalities" not "flesh and blood," citing Ephesians 6:12. But it was still dangerous. Now we see how.

Honestly still in shock that the most crooked American President in history said "I need immunity" and the GOP Supreme Court said "well, it's nowhere in the constitution, but sure, why not? Whats the worst that could happen?"

Keeping Trump out of the White House isn’t the only thing that needs doing and it isn’t enough to solve all problems facing the country & world but if it isn’t done then all those problems get exponentially worse in ways I don’t even know how to express and it scares me when people pretend otherwise

no. roberts wrote the immunity opinion because he is a movement conservative and always has been. he seems "moderate" to dimwits because his method is to operate slowly, doing his damage with paper cuts and false humility while embedding the next step in each ruling.

this entire crusade against diversity in hiring and admissions is based on the supposition that all white men are necessarily more qualified than any nonwhite person or woman who might be considered for the job. like, this lawsuit more or less states that outright.

Fun fact: @ryanestrada.com ‘s “Banned Book Club,” which I proudly publish, keeps being challenged in libraries for being “pornograhic.” There is zero sex or sexual suggestion in the title. The censors are just shrieking The Magic Word and hoping it gets them what they want. This is what they do.

oh it's not actually happening, it's just something Facebook conservatives are *saying* is happening, to paint the LGBTQ community as as a bunch of "look-at-me!"s. Typical "flood the zone with shit" stuff.

Just read thru the policy goals of Project 2025 and know that practically every conservative you've met - family, friends, coworkers, co-parishioners, strangers at the store, ppl you muted on social media - would be totally OK with any of that shit coming to pass, or at least do nothing to stop it.

“The murdered person was a scary threat to his murderer” is a story our dominant cultural narrative keeps telling, even though the self-evident truth is the exact opposite, given who did the killing and who did the dying. It’s one of supremacy’s purest expressions.
