'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.

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

24/ Judge talks about Rhodes "celebrating" in the aftermath of Jan 6. "It doesn't sound like you were just there for a security detail"
"Even as you've been incarcerated, you've alluded to violence as acceptable.. to address grievances"
You told Jason Alpers days after 1/6 that your only regret was you should have brought the weapons and if you had, you would have hung Pelosi from a lamppost. Doesn't sound like you were there for a security detail.
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.
