Trump and his allies telegraphed all of this before he won. He promised retribution, tumult, autocracy. He isn't doing what he's doing because he thinks it's what voters want. He's doing it because he's trying to upend the government.

I bet a lot of people have had an experience like this with a bad boss - there’s an email in your inbox on Saturday night saying, “Prove to me your worthiness by Monday or else.”
I’m on the side of the workers, not the billionaire asshole bosses.

I know a JAG, and he's pissed. (Despite being a straight white cis male.)

I'll grab my babushka, Mr. Sniffers, and join you. Cowardly Iowa legislators refuse to have open meetings. At 77, I'm starting to look like this. I used to be all professional, polite, professorial, then, Papaya Pot Pol came along.

Funny how they're more likely to be Christian women. The wife carries her birth name, and should skate until they decide folks with Arabic names don't get a vote.

The domain is registered in Reykjavík and the domain owner’s identity is withheld “due to privacy.“ COWARDLY CUNTS.

It is absolutely true that way too many white women vote MAGA
I think it is also true that those MAGA women and the white women with federal jobs that the Musk/Trump junta are targeting for overtly misogynist reasons are probably *rather different*

LOL. I guess it goes without saying that cis > trans, straight > not in that foolishness, too.

It is extremely clear that the MAGA government purges are targeting everybody who isn’t a white straight cis male, and that very much includes even cis straight white women.
