"For students who sign up online to join Turning Point USA, the organization offers “activism kits” that include not only handbooks and posters but also buttons that read: “All guns matter,” “9mm beats 9-11,”...
Turning Point also offers students training to expose teachers and professors with “radical and anti-American agendas.”"

Sound familiar?
Remember the Hitler Youth and the League of German Girls?

@TexasObserver @texastribune Any man who finds out his partner chose to not have a child with him will be able to file multiple lawsuits to get his revenge.
Exactly what pro-choice advocates predicted would happen.

Oh, that is rich. After defying a subpoena from the Jan. 6 Committee himself last Congress, Jim Jordan now expects compliance with his subpoenas now that he has the gavel.
See how Eric Swalwell expertly called out Jordan's hypocrisy: https://secondnexus.com/swalwell-jordan-subpoena-compliance-hypocrisy?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=toot&utm_campaign=2N
@therobburgessshow Head to the small mall and visit Faux Paws dog shop. Pick up some gifts for your favorite canines.

Ahhh… BBC covering themselves in glory today… refusing to air an Attenborough documentary because it’s too political to save the planet, effectively suspending Lineker from MOTD (for speaking up for asylum seekers) and trying to spin it as him “stepping back”, silence on Bruce diminishing Stanley Johnson abuse allegations…
Yup, that’s the balance we’ve come to know and loathe…
Michigan legislature votes to repeal 1931 state abortion ban | The Hill
It’s nice to see at least one state moving forwards instead of backwards. https://thehill.com/homenews/state-watch/3894106-michigan-legislature-votes-to-repeal-1931-state-abortion-ban/

If you live in Florida and want to do something to make the trans folks here feel better, send a letter to the committee members hearing about SB 254 criminalizing gender affirming care and classifying it as child abuse and tell them to stop it. You can sign and personalize a stock letter here! https://act.eqfl.org/a/oppose-criminalizing-gender-affirming-care-bill
@StillIRise1963 @nedhamson I recommend people shop where they are allowed to keep their masks on.

@AlliFlowers I KNEW this would happen sooner or later. What I want to know is what happens if some #religion declares #abortion to be one of their sacred rites. Will the #courts decide that freedom of religion doesn't apply? What if they are in a state where simply providing assistance in getting an abortion in a legal manner (by going to a state where it's allowed) is illegal, but they include information on how to get one in their "holy" texts? Will the courts discriminate on which religions get to have rights and which don't?
@Lunatech It’s already happening. For instance, in Judaism, it’s the mother’s life that takes precedence and life does not begin until the first breath. There are already several lawsuits based on that.
But we all know, it’s only fundamental Christianity that counts, and the SCOTUS has turned its back on freedom of religion.

Saw a post on a different platform saying states should vote on abortion.
My eyes rolled so hard I think they're stuck.
Full reproductive freedom should not depend on zip code.
Either people with a uterus are free like those without -- or we're not and that's a goddamn problem.

If an elderly Democrat trips or falls, it makes headlines for weeks and journalists use this as an excuse as to why he or she should retire. When an elderly Republican trips or falls, it barely makes the news and nobody suggests that it’s time McConnell retires.

Why student debt cancellation is reasonable, not radical - Boomers got government subsidizes for college so paid less than half in real dollars than today's students. Is it fair that boomer got a benefit not given today. https://www.nationofchange.org/2023/03/07/why-student-debt-cancellation-is-reasonable-not-radical/ via @NationofChange #Education
