I'm having a really hard time feeling any pity for Israel, the USA, or the UK right now. All three countries literally voted for what they are getting. It's not like it was any secret that Netanyahu is incredibly corrupt and doesn't give a damn about anything other than himself, but he said more hateful things about Palestinians, so he got the votes.

A fact check is already out: “The Biden DOJ plea deal did not collapse on Wednesday due to the legal inquiries from America First, but rather because of a disagreement between the defense and prosecutors over whether the plea gives Biden immunity over future charges.”

PragerU "kids content"
in.

... schools.

If you don't know much about PragerU it's a right wing youTube propaganda channel with a massive budget slick production values and terrible bankrupt content.

Their kids content is some of the worst I've ever seen. The only up side is I don't know if it will be all that effective. Their content isn't very persuasive or even engaging.

Really though? Bring back those old "educational" movies from the 50s-- they are less destructive.

FASCISM IS ALREADY HERE.

Another Red state flouts federal law, in this case HIPAA. #Abbott believes that the state of TX controls the US border with Mexico and can ignore environmental laws controlling barring blocking US waterways and basic human rights violations involving their scattering razor wire on federally controlled land and waterways. #TX has basically seceded from the Union. We should remove all federal aid to TX and send in the Marines to clean up OUR border and the Rio Grande.

What is this jackass talking about?? #RFKjr isn't a doctor, or a scientist, or in any way a relevant subject-matter expert. He's literally just a random guy who promotes disinformation he learned by "doing his research". And yet he's the guy who a presidential hopeful is going to "sic" on the FDA and CDC? Give me an effing break! This is the craziest thing #DeSantis has ever said.

@JRBuckley

Religion is like a penis; it's okay to have one and it's okay to be real proud of it but it's NOT okay to whip it out in public or shove it down other people's throats.

One of many reasons Ron DeSantis must never be president--he says his views align with RFK Jr's and he would consider appointing him to head the CDC or FDA. This could result in mass deaths.

Far-right measures by conservative states to drastically reshape public education, restricting discussions or lessons about race & gender, have profound consequences for students, educators, & parents

tallahassee.com/story/news/pol “The oldest intercollegiate Black fraternity in the country is moving its 2025 conference from Florida, calling the state "hostile" to the Black community.”

Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. will relocate the fraternity’s 99th General Convention and 119th Anniversary Convention from Orlando "due to Governor Ron DeSantis’ harmful, racist, and insensitive policies against the Black community," according to a press release from the organization.

The event was expected to generate $4.6 million, according to Alpha Phi Alpha.

@GottaLaff He has had vascular issues for 20+ years. Triple bypass in 2003. To my knowledge he has not admitted to any health issues since then, despite his often unhealthy appearance.
He's 81 now. One may succeed in hiding serious health issues for just so long. He needs to bow out and spend more time with the family. Maybe take up knitting.

Why is it that Kevin McCarthy will never be mistaken for a bowling alley?

If your plan includes the words "but if everyone would just—"

You don't have a plan

Everyone has never "just—" in the history of time

They won't "just—" this time either

We can't "individual responsibility" our way out of a systemic problem
