It is bananas that this is STILL going on. It's all just an enormous, incredibly dangerous grift. The best part was people arguing that this stuff isn't bleach, which I put paid to 12 fucking years ago. thinkingautismguide.com/2013/01/mms-...

On a total side note, it occurred to me late last week that Republicans went with calling it the Big, Beautiful Bill (BBB) partly out of jealousy at Build Back Better (BBB).

I encourage people who hold the overall correct view that protests have better optics when the protesters are carrying American flags to Be The Change and bring big American flags to protests themselves.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

Something worth remembering about immigration: it's not a choice between values and pocketbook. You get both. The best evidence is that immigration enriches us all. If you want to convince yourself, imagine the USA didn't ban Chinese immigration in 1882, or immigration more broadly in 1924.

The raids in Los Angeles & beyond aren’t about public safety - they’re about terrorizing our immigrant & refugee neighbors in the service of hate.

This is just a distraction! This is all a distraction. The world is naught but illusion. Someday, the Veil of Maya will lift and we will see each other as we have been seen by the gods — purely objective, without the occluding garments of shame or ignorance. Until then, buy Chuck Schumer's book

This is actually a flat-out lie: The #MAGAMurderBill specifically prohibits anyone who gets kicked off of Medicaid for failing to meet the work reporting requirements from qualifying for ACA exchange subsidies (which means they couldn't possibly afford an exchange plan at that income level).

The interesting thing about people dragging the folks in that NYT piece who said that they didn’t vote for moms to get deported is that the article is about how these women are organizing for a member of their community, aggressively and openly, and actually, that’s good.
