Know your Christian Nationalist dog whistles: the “appeal to heaven” flag is the new confederate flag. It was flown by insurrectionists on January 6. And now it hangs outside of House Speaker Mike Johnson’s office.

@DemocracyMattersALot Absurd.

It's laughable to see Republicans trying to say that they're only in favor of "reasonable restrictions" on abortion, when many have supported a complete ban on abortion for any reason, and have expressed interest in banning even contraception.

This doesn't change my opinion of Cannon one iota; by allowing Trump to later move to delay the trial, but keeping the date for now, she is blocking Fani Willis from scheduling her trial on the current FLA date. And Cannon has substantially delayed the dates for all FLA filings.

@stevegis_ssg You mean the French from the English? @lukito
“If I happen to be president, and I see somebody who is doing well and beating me very badly, I’ll say, ‘go down and indict them.'" https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/trump-warns-indict-political-opponents-reelected-1234875220/
@stevegis_ssg Sounds like you’re correctly processing what you’re hearing, but perhaps not able to repeat it aloud? @lukito
This is what the GOP Fascist Party does. Nothing matters but what they want, and the only laws, regulations, or votes that apply are those that benefit them. Trump 101.

This is an actual press release from the #Ohio House Republican Caucus.
They're claiming Ohio's new constitutional right to abortion access doesn't repeal the #abortion bans passed by the legislature

6. Hide for two thousand years
7. Show up on toast.
At Seaham Harbour on the Durham Heritage Coast in North East England, this is the 'Slope Beach'.
Not a soul around on this visit, but on that temperature-busting day last year, when weather records were being smashed across many parts of the UK, this spot was rammed with people enjoying the heatwave.
The pier on the left, with its lighthouse, regularly feature in the national press for the impressive scenes when stormy seas crash up against it.
