“Also included in the ad were a few shots of the woman's husband Vernon Edwards, who was convicted of gross sexual imposition in 2006 for molesting several of his nieces under the age of 13.” They have since used CGI to edit him out. He can’t even vet an ad. How is he going to be my governor?
How many sex offenders does the Republican Party have???? local12.com/news/local/q...

This guy has the scared bravado of an absolute booger eater who’s gotten in with the school bully. He’s been told to brazen it out, and is only half convinced that it’ll work, as the current strategy depends on selling child rape as a character flaw for the child.
NEW: Vivek Ramaswamy says Amy Acton being a victim of childhood sexual abuse makes her “flawed” while defending his ad featuring her estranged mother. “In politics sometimes it's a tough sport.”
Where is the support for the troops, yall? How are we allowing this? You’re not hearing about our troops dying in the Middle East because they have kicked all of the journalists out of those bases, the pentagon, and Stars and Stripes.
Man, Hegseth's Department of War is even more buffoonish than everything else. Kinda amazed how the US military didn't just have some basic war plans they could activate. Their lack of preparedness is astonishing. meidasnews.com/news/so-much...
And here all this time I had thought Logan Roy was based on Lachlan Murdoch…
Never forget that David Ellison's Skydance Media was originally created so he could be an actor. Skydance's first film was 'Flyboys' starring James Franco and... David Ellison. David and his daddy invested $60m to make Flyboys. It grossed $17m Here's a bit of David's acting:

Just a reminder that these Haitian immigrants in Springfield -- who came here legally, did everything they were asked to do and more -- became a target of federal crackdowns because the white nationalist vice president shamelessly spread racist lies about them.
A Haitian man legally immigrated to Ohio, then was given an ankle monitor bc Trump withdrew his status. He threw himself in front of truck. The trucker, who voted for Trump, is haunted. “Pierre was doing what he was supposed to do. We did not do right by him.” www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

Since when is “I’m not going to do this with you” an acceptable answer in front of Congress??
OSSOFF: Who won the 2020 election? CLAYTON: Uhm, you know, I'm not going to do this with you O: This is a job interview. You have an obligation to be honest with the committee. Who won the 2020 election? C: I'm not gonna get into that with you O: You're not being honest or forthright C: ...

the sole purpose of originalists' preoccupation with history and tradition is reproducing historical hierarchies of oppression they are happy to discard history as soon as it doesn't serve that purpose I know I've told y'all this before bookshop.org/p/books/the-...
This is not going away, sorry to say. One of my friends has already questioned if he’s an originalist post-Barbara because “letting historical accident determine the answer to this deeply profoundly moral normatively significant question” is “a weird way to do law.” I do not jest.

There's only one kind of affirmative action program that conservatives love, and it's their own crusade to prop up their unpopular ideas and force them on college students. Massive funding, entire programs devoted to the cause, even mandated courses now. And it's still not working.
Only one student enrolled in West Virginia University’s new Washington Center after GOP lawmakers mandated the creation of the program Lawmakers allocated around $3 million to the program in the last two years

There is absolutely no reason for these insider trading sites to exist, and they should be legislated into oblivion.
“Federal investigators believe the commando bet more than $33,000 on the prediction market Polymarket just hours before President Donald Trump announced Maduro's capture in January, the sources said.”

Nothing has killed more soldiers in the history of humanity than disease. While worst is a more complicated question Hegseth is absolutely the dumbest secretary of defense the United States has ever had. bsky.app/profile/ones...

The majority of Americans can't afford an unexpected $1,000 emergency expense, and in a country with notably expensive health care, this is a recipe for disaster. And of course, this has ripple effects because the Trump Admin blocked a Biden Admin effort to keep medical debt off credit reports.

It's just insane the degree to which the federal government has simply declared war on a U.S. state. A punitive war with no discernible objective other than to immiserate its people. bsky.app/profile/apne...
BREAKING: Vice President JD Vance says the Trump administration is pausing some Medicaid funding to Minnesota because of fraud concerns.
Welp, folks, better wrap yourself in bubble wrap and never leave the house cuz the government just told injured patients to go fly a kite
Dr Oz: "We're announcing a 6 month national moratorium blocking all new enrollments for durable medical equipment -- prosthesis, orthotics -- supplies across the board."
Oh, no way!? The man who was told 💫from birth💫 that he was a literal prince, was special, was to be waited on and revered just for breathing, was entitled??? The man with a literal royal title was entitled?? Maybe Andrew is especially a cunt but the whole system needs to go.
Just listen to what Andrew’s nickname was amongst royal protection officers.
