❗️The so-called “conservatives” have always been, and will always be working to undermine and ultimately demolish our Federal Republic!

This morning NBC’s Blayne Alexander brought us “Trump supporters” (again). Each one of them smugly recited every stupid Trump narrative that FoxNews advances every day. For the life of me I cannot figure out why we don’t burn that fake-news organization to the ground. They are literally eating our nation alive from the inside out. And spare me first amendment apology. It was NOT about protecting organized lying for fun and profit.

I wonder from time to time why the Arab states adjacent to Israel cannot see fit to carve out some real estate in which Palestinians could settle? 🤔

Good morning. I’m only here for pictures of Trump in pain. If there’s nothing new to see, I’ll be moving along. Got stuff to do.

🤦🏻‍♀️🙄 “Exceeded his authority..,”

“Lawyers for #Trump have filed another appeal in the hush money/interference case to challenge the trial’s judge’s order denying him from arguing he has presidential immunity.

Trump’s attorneys also challenging Judge Juan Merchan’s “refusal” to recuse himself from the trial and a previous ruling related to how dockets are made publicly.” #legal

A cataract is growing in my one useful eye. Thanks to the extremely unusual physiology of that eye, it is degrading my vision very rapidly; I'm noticing the change from one month to the next. Soon I'll have a somewhat risky surgery to deal with the situation.

Obviously, none of this is fun. But, that being said, I do have to admit that this is the most beautiful disability I have ever experienced. 🙂

The Christian right wants social order where women are 2nd class & therefore opposes reproductive tech that allows women to have autonomy. The perception is that IVF is primarily used by lesbians, single women & women who waited until their 30s to marry.

“When the #Alabama Supreme Court ruled that frozen embryos are considered children under state law, its chief justice had a higher authority in mind.

By citing verses from the Bible and Christian theologians in his concurring opinion, Chief Justice Tom Parker alarmed advocates for church-state separation, while delighting religious conservatives who oppose abortion.” #IVF

You know, when I look back on my life, I think it is utterly fucking amazing that for most of it, I had to literally argue with people as to the actual EXISTENCE of racism in this confederate ass hellhole. My whole fucking LIFE in white spaces. Holy hell. It's hard to be sane in this bitch, I'll tell you that.

Republicans are mad that Democrats didn’t tell them that Rep. Al Green would get out of his hospital bed to vote against their sham impeachment. They’re so used to winning elections by suppressing the Black vote that they think it’s a trick when a Black person actually does vote.

There's "a simple reason," according to President Biden, why the bipartisan border security funding deal is not moving forward: "Donald Trump" and it looks like the Republicans "are caving."

The very dumb Swift-Kelce conspiracy theories aren't about elections but about a right-wing fight for attention — and about leveraging the prevalent idea that Democratic voters are all brainwashed robots.

“We are shareholders at a company that, unfortunately, has a longstanding practice of allowing conspiracy theories that its executives and its board know are false to be repeated over and over and over again, despite the very clear and present risk of defamation lawsuits eroding shareholder value,” said Brad Lander, New York City’s comptroller, who oversees the pension funds. https://tinyurl.com/2azvhekp

A theory:
Simple minds want an authoritarian leader, similar to how a young child needs parental authority.

This is why the so-called “conservatives” (U.S. Republicans) have for decades, continually undermined public education: create more ignorant voters.
