I just feel like "what you allow is what will continue" when it comes to transphobic politicians.
I dont see a good outcome from electing people who campaign on hate. Because then they get to continue campaigning on hate as a winning strategy.

Guys, I think @theonion.com has solved the whole “who’s really an American” culture war.
![Photo of a physical copy of an Onion article. Headline “My Great-Grandparents Immigrated The Right Way By Killing 2 Americans And Assuming Their Identity”
It might surprise you given my politics, but I have no problem with immigrants. Personally, I think America should welcome anyone who crosses our borders to make a better life for them-selves. However, people who enter this country should do so through the proper channels. It's that simple. If you want to come here, do it the way my great-grandpar-ents did: by murdering a pair of American citizens and assuming their identities.
The problem today is that everybody wants to skip the line. They don't want to put in the hard work of picking the perfect, fully legal citizen whom they can poison or bludgeon to death before pretending to be that person for the purpose of entering the United States. But they should. There are established procedures, and if you want to come here, but can't even be bothered to memorize the name, birth dates, and Social Security numbers of two innocent Americans before brutally strangling them and disposing of their bodies, then, frankly, you haven't earned a place in this majestic country of ours.
Like millions before and since, my great-grandparents wanted their piece of the American dream.
But they did it the right way. They befriended John and Dorothy Reed, a wealthy and unsuspecting couple from Iowa who were vacationing in Germany, and they slit their throats, buried them in the Black Forest, took their passports, and boarded the next steamship to New York.
No shortcuts. No excuses. No
looking back.
My ancestors-Oskar and Inge Grünewald as they were known before they they were Grandpa Jack and Grandma Dotty to us-arrived in America cold and hungry, with nothing but the clothes on their backs and the identities of the two Americans they had snuffed out. They knew their path to citizenship would be hard.

This woman has turned not engaging with her franchise into a moral imperative.
I for one won’t be watching and hope that JK is in for a rude awakening. It’s also pretty crazy to be this overly confident about rehashing your already adapted books with lesser known actors.

Trump: "If we lose $50 billion a year with a country, and we say 'we're not going to trade with you anymore,' we don't lose $50 billion a year. It's very simple. Right?"

a take I saw that rang true for me today is that the GOP, which spends the other 364 days of the year talking shit about NY (and they did this back then, too, lest they peddle some "we loved it then" story), wants, once a year, to front like they love New York. Nah man. Everybody already heard you

The US is being used as a proxy by Israel vs Iran, by Russia vs Canada & EU-Ukraine. The only decision the US has made for itself military wise has been to go mass murder civilians in international waters to make Hegseth's little steroid shriveled pete feel bigger than it is.

If at any point you were listening to the voices of people telling you that the rule of law still exists in the United States, stop.
