Re: CPAC Speaker Calls for Eradication of ‘Transgenderism’ — and Somehow Claims He’s Not Calling for Elimination of Tran

'There is no separating a ban on “transgenderism” from an attack on transgender people, says activist Erin Reed: “They are one and the same, and there’s no separation between them.”' Do we need to say more?! https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/cpac-speaker-transgender-people-eradica...

Re: Nancy Pelosi suspected assassination attempt; husband held prisoner and assaulted with hammer at home

The only year where home grown right terrorists weren't responsible for the majority of pilitical murders was 2001. And ...

The first sentence works by itself, the second one doesn't help as much as you think.

Re: Biden Administration Imposes Cardassian Style Justice

What we need is a Constitutional Amendment putting strict limits on the breadth and power of Executive Orders.
