“I didn’t vote for THIS,” say the manosphere podcasters who simply had no way of knowing that Trump would lie about being a populist to get into office and then govern like a autocratic lunatic once in power, other than the fact that he did it for 4 entire years before that.

Worth noting again that everything RFK Jr. does and every death and illness that he causes is 100% the responsibility of Bill Cassidy, who knew exactly who he was voting for and why he was nominated

most of the time I think he’s at least really committed to fascism. but there’s just a lot of evidence he’s bored as fuck and they keep coming up with these little projects for him. I mean it’s important for elderly people to stay active.

U.S. Map showing Minnesota among a handful of states in the $12,000-$17,999 tier with 40+ states showing bigger increases up to $49,000.

Minnesota looks good on this map of Obamacare price hikes post-subsidy expiration … until you realize “good” means a $12,000-$17,999 annual increase, not a $28,000-$49,000. www.cbpp.org/research/hea...

This is absolutely insane.. it would appear the entire medical industrial complex will implode violently. People will only see a doctor if they're literally dying.. and meanwhile doctors, nurses, medical practitioners, insurance employees will find themselves unemployed.

As Trump talks of designating antifa a foreign terrorist group, experts see danger The designation would have, as one domestic terrorism expert told NPR, a "cascading effect across civil society, including social media organizations, civic organizations and everything in between."

The Absurd Prosecution of a Man Who Posted a Charlie Kirk Meme Larry Bushart Jr. posted trolling memes on a Facebook thread about a vigil for Kirk. He’s been in a Tennessee jail ever since.

To Steinbaugh, who has litigated First Amendment violations all over the country, Bushart’s case stands out. “One thing that’s unique about it is that nobody has done a course correction here,” he said. “This guy’s been incarcerated since this happened over quoting the president.”

Merkley: "What we've seen is that democracies no longer die bc men w/guns go in and take it over. Instead, it's electeds who erode the separation of power. If you have a rubber-stamp Congress & courts that deliver more power to the executive, suddenly you have an authoritarian state. It's here now."
