I think he really does have that fetish. For years he would put up these weird bible verses on twitter and get ratioed all day long then come back with another and another.

Who knows what he has on Graham,

JFK had heavy prescription drug use because he had a major debilitating disease and also had to be president - not sure that counts

I really do think the response to sandy hook was the moment the US went off the deep end

Some are, and it’s not that hard to figure out, but many are actual local people. One of the more dedicated racists is a known Wal Mart employee. One time a city councilman chimed in.

Every local news site on Facebook sounds like that now. today I saw one guy started going off about shooting immigrants, but where do you even report it. A few months ago someone said they wanted to see chimneys at alligator alcatraz. People use their real names for these comments

No they genuinely do lack the political will because their political classes do not give a flying fuck about the poor people that make up 2/3 of their populations. otherwise we’d be hearing from them all the time over ICE, shackling deportees etc.

Good news that the execrable Kristi Noem has been fired, but Trump should really be firing Stephen Miller, the primary engineer of the vile ethnic reengineering agenda and murderously violent civic tensions that are sucking all of them into a bottomless political sinkhole, Trump included.
