Take off labels. I don't give a damn if they are "young" or "progressive" or "democratic socialists" or whatever.

Sane people: OMG the POTUS just called for senators to be killed for reminding troops of their oath. This is bad.
Republican Congresspeople: oh that rascal

Edwin Feulner is dead. The man who turned far-right cruelty into a think tank mission statement.
He didn’t just pull the ladder up behind him, he lit it on fire.
