The Tennessee State House Republicans just expelled Rep Justin Jones. It's a sad day for Tennessee, democracy, gun sense victims & advocates, & America.
MY LATEST: Donald Trump has longed acknowledged his obsession with revenge. After being indicted, he now is fully employing it, and the rest of the right is embracing his politics of vengeance. That could be dangerous. Please read and share this.

@MSNBC This has to be one of the most craven (not to mention blatantly illegal) moves the Republicans have made. They must be held accountable. #TenneseeThree

I guess the question is whether we even live in a civilized society in the U.S. anymore. Or whether a large portion of people in this society even desire civility. When the only solution to debate is to shoot at someone with different ideas, we can safely assume we have deteriorated past an important threshold. @thetnholler https://tennesseelookout.com/briefs/shooting-targets-founder-of-progressive-news-site-tennessee-holler/
Trump judge and his family receive threats after New York arrest
Alan Turing is widely recognized as a hero and a genius. He’s considered the father of theoretical computer science and AI.
But he was also a gay man whom the British government chemically castrated.
Turing killed himself because of the way his government treated him.
What more might he have done had he lived?
As this wave of hatred sweeps the US, I wonder how many gay and trans Alan Turings we’ve already lost, and how many we’ll continue to lose.
Holy shit. This article. https://www.propublica.org/article/clarence-thomas-scotus-undisclosed-luxury-travel-gifts-crow
@samlitzinger I certainly hope this doesn’t take long to rectify. It’s a scary precedent to set.
@mentallyalex@beige.party @GayDeceiver My life. What can I say. It’s also a problem because I spent 13 years married to a man who chose what he would wear for me to wear, followed by 22 years in a Title I high school were my fashion tastes were highly influenced by 15 year old Black girls.
