The Young Republicans worship the same ideologies as the old Republicans. We should only be surprised that this leaked, not that it was happening in the first place.

FYI, I found it on Facebook by googling "gear up lock in the mission doesn't wait" (the text at the bottom of the screenshot).

I just checked and this is real. It's on Border Patrol's official Instagram (I don't see it on Facebook) and is being celebrated by Nazis on Twitter, as you can see in the screenshot.

The clip is just 13 seconds long too, so it's a very intentional thing. We've got a Nazi government.

People act like I'm crazy when I say that the DNC are just as dangerous as the GOP...but the DNC is literally blocking any enthusiasm or hope that the left could manifest to actually beat facism.

They literally suppress any progressive movement, leader, energy, or momentum that emerges.

Plant-based protein powders tested as having the highest levels of lead. It is unclear if this is from the soil or from the manufacturing process. Also, the 1994 deregulation of supplements both created the modern industry and leaves us all at risk.

paris martineau @paris.nyc · 21h

my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements

we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵)

And yet, the Young Republican bigots continued to commit their bigotry to text. Maybe we shouldn't be surprised that older Republicans are prone to making stupid decisions too.

The key is to always expect the worst outcome no matter what. It’s impossible to be dissapointed when your expectations are so low they are right next to dinosaur bones.

Who would have thought that 25 times as many people would be getting their daily news updates from a Boston College history professor (Heather Cox Richardson, who has 2.5 million subscribers) than from the Washington Post.

Lmao WaPo has fewer than 100K circulation now. It turns out “alienate your liberal subscriber base” is not a good strategy when the Republicans also hate you. www.forbes.com/sites/andyme...
