Liberal politicians if you are so disturbed just pretend Charlie Kirk was a Palestinian child and you’ll get over it in no time
Thinking about the family of Representative Melissa Hortman & her husband who were assassinated at the hands of a radical MAGA shooter in June.
Melissa was doing such important work for the state of Minnesota & this country-we grieve her loss & demand strict gun reform legislation.
For everyone saying political violence has no place in this country…
Remember two Democratic legislators were shot in Minnesota just this year.
And America shrugged and moved on.

"I think it's worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights" - Charlie Kirk, 2023

I'm sure some of you know where you can stick your stupid AI hero art of Newsom.
Another morning to say that I will not vote for Gavin Newsom when he inevitably runs for president. If you want my vote, you should make sure to nominate someone who isn't a transphobe.

A summary of the situation (both in the ATmosphere and the Fediverse) links to a bunch of interesting discussions, and an appendix on just why age verification laws are so bad. 🧵
SB 8, the Texas Bathroom bill, passed 86 - 41. Last stop is conference committee to hammer out the fines. Soon to become law of the land #txlege
When people argue that trans people refusing to support transphobic Democrats is some kind of stubborn ideological purity, what they're saying is that trans people aren't entitled to any boundaries, standards, or dignity. That we're supposed to tolerate whatever we're given.
James Dobson was a eugenicist who spent his life teaching parents how to abuse their children without being caught or prosecuted for it.
today we get to believe in hell, as a little treat
get a library card get a library card get a library card get a library card get a LIBRARY CARD
John Deere laying off workers. Pepsi hiking prices. Sony raising PS5 costs. Electric bills up 10%. Welcome to the Trump economy. All going really well, right?
Pat Robertson introducing James Dobson to hell..
James Dobson was a crazy pastor/eugenicist who pushed conversion therapy and sympathized w/ Ted Bundy. He’s best known for spreading the gospel of child abuse and instructed his parishioners to beat the shit out of their children - which they did. A unique evil in a sea of hate. Burn in hell, bitch.
Probably nobody has done more to set us up for the anti-trans backlash moment we're in right now than James Dobson and Focus on the Family
Gavin Newsom calling the kidnapping and forced permanent exile of Kilmar Abrego Garcia... a distraction? False charges, an absurd case, reamplified by the admin,to the point where Gorka is calling anyone calling for his return a supporter of terrorism? That's a distraction, you son of a bitch?
"trans people are human beings" is not a "super crazy communist idea." "human beings should not go to prison because they can't afford their rent" is not a "super crazy communist idea."
Our tax dollars are paying for the genocide of Palestinians, separation of families, tax breaks for the rich, and more but God forbid we pay for healthcare for our neighbors. Not only are our priorities totally backwards, they’re abhorrent.
Mikey Way posting MCR friendship bracelets… where are my fellow emo swifties at????
Criminalization as we know it originated primarily from fears of social disorder filtered through race, gender, class, etc.—not the need to prevent physical violence. Most crimes “on the books” have nothing to do w/physical violence. So when ppl want to go *beyond* the books, holy shit be worried.
Protect the homeless. Protect the kids. Protect the immigrants.
In Washington DC and everywhere.
I was going to say that we need a Christmas movie where a woman goes back to her small town and realizes that it sucks terribly and so recommits herself to her liberal lawyer boyfriend in the big city.

A New Zealand woman who is being held at a US immigration centre with her six-year-old son after they were detained crossing the Canada-US border, is being wrongly “treated like a criminal”, according to her friend and advocate. Sarah Shaw, 33, a New Zealander who has lived in Washington state for just over three years, dropped her two eldest children to Vancouver airport on 24 July, so they could take a direct flight back to New Zealand for a holiday with their grandparents. When Shaw attempted to re-enter the US, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) detained her and her youngest son, in what was a “terrifying” ordeal, said Victoria Besancon, Shaw’s friend who is helping to raise money for her legal fight. A younger woman with a large envelope in front of her I’m the Canadian who was detained by Ice for two weeks. It felt like I had been kidnapped Read more “Sarah thought she was being kidnapped,” she said. “They didn’t really explain anything to her at first, they just kind of quietly took her and her son and immediately put them in like an unmarked white van.” Ice confiscated Shaw’s phone and transported the mother and son to the Dilley immigration processing center in south Texas, many states away from her home, Besancon said. Foreign nationals caught up in the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown have similarly been transported to centres far from their homes, support networks and legal representation.
A New Zealand woman who works in Washington state and her six-year-old son have been abducted by ICE at the Canadian border, trafficked to Texas, and imprisoned for three weeks in abhorrent conditions.
