Ken Paxton saying the quiet part out loud.

He said the Supreme Court's order “defended Texas's fundamental right to draw a map that ensures we are represented by Republicans."

The GOP thinks it is fundamentally more important than its constituents.

She says MAGA loyalists are now driving by their home and yelling “R*tard!” at her family and her special needs brother after Trump called GovTimWalz the R word.

#OTD in 1941, USS Ward fired the first American shots of the war in the Pacific when the destroyer sank a midget sub trying to enter Pearl Harbor. The 14th Naval District HQ believed the action was a false report, not recognizing that the sub was part of an incoming Japanese attack. #PearlHarbor

The plane landed, slightly ahead of schedule, just moments before the incident happened at about 11pm. The drones reached the location where Zelenskyy’s plane was expected to be at the exact moment it had been due to pass.
Four unidentified military-style drones breached no-fly zone to target Zelenskyy's arrival in Dublin
Gardaí are investigating whether the drones took off from land in Dublin or from an undetected ship.

Democracy doesn’t instantly vanish, it’s dismantled, department by department, ruling by ruling. SCOTUS was the law. Now it’s the knife. Congress sets laws to keep presidential powers in check. Our corrupt SCOTUS is destroying that balance and fast-tracking us to certain demise.

This sociopathic techbro billionaire dork likely picked his idea up from a Reddit post & is clueless that it's possible to study the deterrent efficacy of executions.

Research shows that public executions do *not* deter crime. If anything, they encourage violence.

I think the *speed* at which RFK Jr and his Great Barrington Declaration/anti-vaxx/Brownstone wrecking crew have been dismantling the US public health system has been really astonishing
Well, Senators Bill Cassidy and Thom Tillis, you wanted RFK Jr. to “go wild” at HHS.

Congratulations. You’ve achieved your goal. He is well on his way to completely destroying the US vaccine program.
