If you think a just-fertilized ovary is entitled to life but are indifferent to what happens to a kidnapped 4-year-old with cancer, sent to a dangerous country without meds, you don’t give a fuck about the lives of children. You are just in a cult that fetishizes being against abortions.

Given the literal definition of deportation is removing a foreigner or noncitizen from the country, we - journalists, media orgs - should probably all stop referring to the ‘deportation’ of a 2 year old US citizen. It’s NOT a deportation. I’m not sure what it is. A kidnapping?

The circle of top advisers in Pete Hegseth’s orbit has shrunk recently to little more than his wife, lawyer, and two lower-level officials—leaving the Pentagon’s lead office without longtime expertise or clear direction. This had led to fears about dangerous slip-ups, such as weapons program delays.

Drunken rapist Pete Hegseth’s chief of staff has resigned, one of several officials thus far. Who would’ve known that putting this piece of shit in charge of the U.S. military after being led by a highly decorated 4-star General was going to be fucked up? I definitely knew.

Maddow: 88% of the country says no, no, he cannot defy a supreme court ruling. Only 9% say yes he can. And you know, it's not the same thing. But I should mention that 9% is also the proportion of Americans who told yougov this week that they have a favorable view of the black plague

This is in line with the weird sexual insecurity eugenics ideology of the right-wing. It is contemptible and weak for a man to care for children who do not carry his genes, while virtuous and masculine for a man (like Musk) to have multiple genetic offspring he treats like chattel or never sees.

Loved chatting with Jesse! I learned about his work because he covered the recent House hearing where I testified. Jesse discussed how Rep. Keith Self compared me to Goebbels. He then compared Self to a “thumb shaped dildo with ears.” Which is more apt? 💁🏻‍♀️

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased. Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power. Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable. But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.
