When I was on Bill Maher’s show back in the day, he’d call me a crazy Tea Party guy. With disdain. Now look what Maher has become - an authoritarian-embracing MAGA apologist. If you told me back in 2016, that I’d become a NeverTrumper, and Maher would become a Trump bootlicker, I’d of said no way.

Neil Bush: “I see in [James Talarico] the qualities I admire most in public servants: integrity, civility, humility, and a willingness to listen to those with whom he disagrees... a principled, pragmatic leader who understands public office is a responsibility to serve, not an entitlement to power.”

He's the son of a former Bobby Jindal staffer whose consultant work was instrumental in getting Hawley elected.

Meta needs to explain why the No Kings Coalition account was removed in the middle of a nationwide day of action. Restore the account immediately. Silencing political dissent is what authoritarian regimes do, and Americans should be fucking furious!
