'Manufactured MAGA madness': House Dems slam GOP for 'running out of town' to trigger 'economic meltdown' #GOPTraitors #GOP #EndTheGOP https://www.alternet.org/house-gop-run-out-town/

if the house doesn't budge, I expect President Biden to act unilaterally to protect the American and World economy.

Hold a primetime address. Pin the blame where it belongs. Fight the constitutionality of it.

Be as ruthless helping America as the GOP is hurting it.

Wisconsin's finest Glenn Grothman is on the House floor right now complaining that Biden isn't nominating enough straight "white guys" as judges

Who gives a fuck what Rep. Ralph Norman (R-SC) thinks? It was one thing when he was just a sexist racist who made jokes about Ruth Ginsburg getting raped, defended racist Steve King, fought mask mandates, and tried to remove teaching of Critical Race Theory. But urging Trump to declare martial law to prevent Biden from taking office?
He needs to be charged with sedition and to serve the full 20 years in prison. #GOPSedition #GOPInDisarray #GOPShitShow #RaphNorman #WhySCCantHaveNiceThings

Now we have a bill that bans ALL accommodations for trans students explicitly. It seeks to erase trans people from schools and adds on the litterbox hoax at the very end of the section.

This bill would literally ban trans youth from unisex restrooms "unless they had bottom surgery."

1) Trans youth do not get bottom surgery.
2) North Dakota has a bill that would ban bottom surgery for trans youth.

So it's an all out ban from UNISEX restrooms!

It's cruel.

FL Mom Behind Amanda Gorman Book Ban Has Ties To The Proud Boys. Via The Daily Beast:
The parent who got a Florida school to ban the poem has ties to the far-right Proud Boys and conservative firebrands Moms For Liberty.
The links follow an expose on Florida mom Daily Salinas by the Miami Herald. In an interview with the Herald, Salinas said she "is not for eliminating or censoring any books," but wants materials to be appropriate and for students "to know the truth" about Cuba.

Why am I sitting here crying about human suffering from almost 100 years ago?

Because it can happen here, again.

I don't think that we have another FDR in us.

@StillIRise1963 Democratic candidates should lead with facts about repugs hating your children. No schools but work, no healthcare but work, no individuality just work until you die early. Sounds like the 1800s where families had children because of no birth control or healthcare, and they needed them to survive. They sent their children to work to try and keep the family fed and sheltered. The rich held all the money and power and everyone else were indentured to them.
