The thing about RFK Jr is that he’s not just a eugenicist who peddles extreme and dangerous anti-science, anti-vaccine conspiracy theories that cause suffering, pain, and death, but he’s also a vile racist piece of s**t

Genuinely: We crossed that line a while ago. It can still be recrossed, but only with a lot of sustained and deliberate effort

Don Moynihan@donmoyn.bsky.social

I don't know that there is a definitive line to cross that makes you say, "I live in a police state now" but when masked gunmen can routinely brutalize the public, citizen or immigrant alike, with impunity, you have reached that point.

The pedophile protection party’s president is laundering right-wing conspiracy theories through the most corrupt DOJ in American history. Whenever the news turns bad, this creep reaches for one name: mine. So let’s make it crystal clear. My name has always been Ilhan Omar.

Trump doesn't pay taxes. So why should you? Trump pulled in $1.4bn from crypto grifts in 2025, plus more than $200mn from real estate, and faced a projected tax bill north of $500mn. So his company donated the "development rights" to his Jupiter, Florida golf course to a land trust, argued the
