Heads up! If you live in Alabama and have frozen embryos stored at a fertilization clinic, you have a good case for claiming them as dependents for tax purposes now. Get those child tax credits!

Proceed directly to the Social Security Administration and have a social security number assigned to each embryo.

Apply for food stamps, Medicaid, and other social assistance based on your new, higher number of dependents.

So, what if Americans planned a huge, nationwide march against fascism, like what just occurred in Germany?

We could schedule it for Presidents' Day. Who's in?

Beginning this year, Idaho public schools will require a financial literacy course for high school graduation.

Gee, I wonder if the curriculum covers this real-life Idaho math problem:
Seventeen-year-old woman has unwanted pregnancy

Given:

  • abortion is illegal in her state
  • Idaho law explicitly restricts minors' out-of state travel for abortions
  • helping a pregnant minor get an abortion in another state is punishable by 2 to 5 years in prison

How much savings does she need to cover:

  • round-trip transportation to an out-of-state healthcare provider
  • out-of-state food and lodging
  • cost of medical procedure
  • lost wages from weekend job
  • legal fees to fight prosecution of whomever assisted her in seeking out-of-state care

These deranged people are the fundamentalist #ChristoFascists intending to impose #TheNewInquisition rule over the rest of us, to eliminate all #WomensRights like in Afghanistan, to execute #LGBTQ folks and #Atheists like Gaza and Iran, to bring back #Slavery like in Libya and Qatar, and make America a Saudi style ethno-state in the #WhiteNationalist flavor. They intend to turn all schools into #ForcedReligion hellholes and #Kidnap your kids if you dare to let them be themselves. They intend to deport #Immigrants and force the poor into servitude with no #MinimumWages or #WorkerProtections at all, including no #SocialSecurity or #Healthcare since only the rich deserve a decent life - their disgusting god told them so while they were here wallowing on the floor and babbling.

THIS IS OUR FUTURE IF MAGATS ARE NOT VOTED OUT AND KEPT OUT PERMANENTLY: rule by hateful misogynist nutjobs using POLICE STATE VIOLENCE to enforce their whackadoodle beliefs onto us.

"U.S. Rep. Tim Walberg (R-Tipton) traveled to the African nation in October for that country’s National Prayer Breakfast, during which he encouraged Uganda to “stand firm” in its Anti-Homosexuality Act, which was signed into law in May by President Yoweri Museveni, and includes the death penalty for those who are determined to be “serial offenders.”

Red states like Ky are planning to eliminate income taxes to move to an entirely sales tax system. They plan to tax all goods & services, so presumably your doctor, home care, your bookkeeper, and your contract labor will all have to charge you sales tax on top of their regular co-pays & fees.

Of course, that means the brunt of all taxes will be paid by the low wage working poor, and the rich will not be affected - nor pay any tax on their income. Small biz is screwed.

Of course, this being the GOP in Kentucky, they will no doubt slap sales taxes on Food & Medicine, too, just to make sure they hurt the poor as much as possible.

B/c that's what right wing christians do - hurt the poor, disabled, elderly by depriving them of food, med care, affordable housing, and then criminalizing homelessness for good measure. In the name of their evil god.

55 Things You Need to Know About Mike Johnson

The surprise winner of the race for speaker of the House had one important ally in his come-from-nowhere bid: Donald Trump.

A staunch social conservative with a long history of anti-LGBTQ rhetoric, he’s also managed on Capitol Hill to forge a less fractious persona, an ideological partisan and a Donald Trump ally who founded the so-called “Honor and Civility Caucus”

"Another Trump Bootlicker + 55"

Dave McCormick to fundraise with his ex-boss George W. Bush in Texas.

That's where McCormick made it easier to ship jobs to and invest in China, and then he himself did it.

“You are invited to join President George W. Bush and … Kathy & Harlan Crow”

Just so folks are clear on this

George W. Bush is hosting a fundraiser with Harlan Crow and Karl Rove, to try to unseat Dem Senator Bob Casey.

McCormick, the guy they are fundraising for, doesn’t live in PA, supports 6 week abortion bans and wants to privatize social security.

Why US appear to be working for the thugs ?

After obstructionist Bill Barr completely covered-up the Trump-Russia investigation in a way that let criminal defendant Donald skate, US Intelligence now has told us that Russians are involved in using a variety of technologies, including ultrasound, microwave weapons, pesticides, and toxins on our diplomats and intelligence personnel.

Why exactly is American counterintelligence so dead-set on protecting the Kremlin and those close to it?

Please hear this important information about the case corrupt #scotus #WhiteChristianNationalist pushing harms Women. Remember, our body, our choice.

The group challenging #mifepristone’s access has NO legal standing to bring their challenge. Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine’s lawyer, Erin Hawley, was questioned on how & why the group was even before the court. Erin is pro-nazi fascist, insurrectionist Josh Hawley's wife.

Bill's an election denying weirdo. Don't believe a word these GOP fucks say.

"By contrast, Huizenga endorsed Trump for president last July and voted with the GOP majority to formalize an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden. He is a staunch opponent of abortion. He recently voted to fund arms for Israel, but against aid to Ukraine."
