In 2022 SCOTUS ruled 6-3 that public school teachers & other staff can lead students in prayer.

Now Louisiana will require all schools that receive public funding to display the Ten Commandments, including colleges and universities.

If it’s prayer these guys want, if you’re a public school teacher who wants to learn the Islamic call to prayer, i.e. the Adhaan, to teach your students, let me know.🙃

Via @Brandi_Buchman over at Xitter:

I can report that in DC last night, an entire bar recited Rep. Crockett's "bleach blonde..." line when prompted and the bar, led by an emcee, toasted MTG with just three words after.

"Bleach blonde bad built butch body" is I believe the description she was asking clarification on acceptability from the chair.

I was recently on the phone with a financial org and they asked me what my expected retirement age was and I laughed, and the guy was like "yeah I get that response to that question a lot these days".

For all the white people who say some of these folks “pretend to be racist for money,” please know that there is no such thing. The consequences of the behavior are real and the same, even if one were “pretending,” hence, there is no such thing as pretending.

Okanogen,
@Okanogen@mastodon.social avatar

@StillIRise1963
Wait what?
I know we all know someone "pretending to be racist for money" is fucking racist. Someone saying someone is pretending to be racist for money is ALSO racist because they they think racism only exists in a pretend way for some incentive, and that their smart, kind friend isnt a "real" racist, not like the ones in the movies. They probably believe all racism is pretend.

Okanogen,

@StillIRise1963
Yeah. No shit.
What I'm choosing to believe (with good reason) is that the polls are completely fucked (conducted as they are by compromised parties who support Trump for drama and clicks) and as has happened in every single election since Dobbs, that Republicans are going dramatically underperformed and be crushed in November. But I could be totally wrong.

No. Not counting on it.
Because we need to destroy these people's dreams permanently, totally, resoundingly, and forever without any goddamn mercy at all. Fuck them right to Hell.
And even if we do win this time, it won't be over. It's like having an infestation of cockroaches. Eternal merciless battle. Fucking Ash battling Deadites.

Society at one time had zero tolerance for Nazis or the Ku Klux Klan, that's where we need to be again with MAGAts. We need people to understand that Trumpers are Nazis, White Supremacists, Ku Klux Klan, mass shooters, and anti-abortion clinic bombers.

Why in the actual FUCK does Trump wear a tie like that? Is it to piss me off personally? Because it offends me personally.
Just another reason why I will piss on his grave, if at all possible.
They should consider burying him at sea, like Osama Bin Laden, so people like me can't have that opportunity.

When Trump announces the concentration camps and forced deportations of Brown people, even citizens, this is the precedent his lawyers will use to convince the SCOTUS that it's all completely legal.
But sure "send a message" about Gaza. Not like YOUR ass is in any danger.
