The rollback of public health measures is intended to kill people. These guys are eugenicists. This will hurt those with less money more. Black families hold 10x less wealth due to generations of structured racism. Going forward with RFKJ, they'll be more vulnerable against preventable diseases.

Peak Tapper was him asking trump to disavow David Duke and the KKK. Trump gave him some bs about how he couldn't say anything about them because he didn't know who the KKK was. Tapper let him off the hook, and his career went downhill from there. youtu.be/e9geYl9J_Mc?...

For the racist avid gun owners, at best, this is all due to fear of what could happen if they disarm. It's a lot of things, I'm sure. But fear is a very powerful motivator. Discrimination of any kind only further amplifies the fear of retaliation. It's a vicious cycle.

Congress (using whatever formula it adopts) could say: Ohio’s GOP Reps’ votes count at ~0.9 each. Ohio’s Democratic Reps’ votes count at ~1.35 each. The net effect: Ohio’s delegation’s weighted balance reflects 55/45 instead of 80/20.

Half-baked, but if 40% of the entire state voted dem, but only 10% of the reps are dem, then the state only gets 100 - (40-10) = 70% representation. What does 70% representation look like? Maybe each rep's congressional vote is weighted by 70%.

I really wish more people would loudly call out the GOP for what it is - racist. Trump has violated every principle they claim to stand for, yet here we are. This is what they were harboring all along. Even before civil rights, conservatism in America has always been about white supremacy.

C'mon, are you afraid of a little AI powered eugenics? What's the worst that can happen? It's not like they can feed everything about you into a computer then have it come up with a targeted way to ruin or uplift your life based on some arbitrary immutable property of your being.

Trump foolishly ruined the veneer of legitimacy the GOP has been carrying out their agenda under. Lindsay Graham knew it, and so did everyone else. Now they have no choice but to own it and go all in.

22. They said the immigration issue was about “law and order.” They said it was about “border integrity.” They said it was about an **important thing that mattered to everyone**. It was never so. The immigration issue was always about maintaining the dominance of white people in America.

To be fair, Republicans have been making disingenuous arguments since the Civil Rights Era. Conservatism in America has always been about white supremacy.

My favorite evergreen Molly Ivins quote: "I prefer someone who burns the flag and then wraps themselves up in the Constitution over someone who burns the Constitution and then wraps themselves up in the flag."

Molly Ivins, dressed in a sort of satin blouse with a neckthing that I'm going to call a scarf?. She's smiling with every cell in her body. Beaming radiantly the joy of being righteous and kind at the same time. Her eyes closed almost to a squint, and every pearly white on display. Gods bless you, Molly, you were a hell of a person.
