This combination of things makes me anxious.

“In a clip that surfaced Tuesday, Johnson put the onus of Republican cuts to essential programs on unborn children, claiming that if American women were producing more bodies to churn the economy then Republicans wouldn’t have to cut essential social programs like Medicare and Medicaid.” #ForcedBirther #WeAreLivestock #SpeakerOfTheHouse newrepublic.com/post/176437/ne

@AlliFlowers One thing! Apparently he wants paternity support payments for pregnant women. Amidst all the misogyny hidden in anti-abortion rhetoric, that actually supports women who want a child but are difficult financial situations.

@AlliFlowers
Just this: He's precisely the right man to be the face of the #Republican Party in Congress. We no longer have to pretend there are Republican moderates. This guy is undeniably #fascist and every Republican representative is on the record supporting him.

if you have heard
the terrible news
you have to respond
by asking them
which terrible news
they mean.

Has anyone else noticed paying attention, or not paying attention, to regional politics has become a life or death choice?

John’s wife said, “Alright, it’s either me or your sweet tooth.”

That decision was a piece of cake.

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) has said he has an adopted Black son, but Josh Marshall can’t find any photos of him.

“No African-American son shows up in any of the family photographs on Johnson’s House website or on his personal Facebook page. Nor does Michael figure anywhere in any of Johnson’s campaign biographies.”

“As I went further down this rabbit hole tonight I was a bit dumbfounded. Is Michael made up?”

Hey y'all. Just wanted to do a little check in. I hope you're all doing okay. Try and enjoy yourselves this weekend, alright? There's been a lot of bad and anxiety filled news this week (and I'd be lying if I said there isn't more bad news to come).

Try and keep the news off this weekend if you can (there's exceptions ofc), just trust me on this one. Nothing good is going to be happening. Take care of yourselves. Hang in there, the wild ride ahead is just beginning so take the time you have now to rest so you're ready for whatever comes your way later.
