Democrats need to put the same extended media consuming outrage into the Young Republican Nazi chats as Republicans mustered for Biden going for ice cream.

Have any of y'all heard about Larry Bushart Jr.? I ask, because I hadn't.

Watch this video and catch up on what's being done to him over a meme he posted.

He wasn't fired. He wasn't "canceled". He was arrested. Based on lies.

We should be outraged by this.

Amy Coney Barrett defends heavy use of the shadow docket: "If we wrote a long opinion, it might give the impression that we have finally resolved the issue, and in none of these cases have we finally resolved the issue."

Oh look. Stocks driven down Friday by Trump tariff game, back up Monday after cronies buy low. Cute. Not the economy.

Absolutely!

Agree. It’s just that eventually, our food supply will be controlled by those who deem who is fit to receive it. I guess they already do

His “tells” are on full display.

Oh my god. They are NOT hostages. They are tried and convicted murderers, rapists, terrorists. You are part of the problem. Do your homework!

How dare that woman wear a huge Star of David, as if she’s not helping to make real Jews unsafe all around the world by giving a platform to authoritarianism. Disgusting.

Julia Bricklin @juliabricklin.com · 2d

That’s my take

Julia Bricklin @juliabricklin.com · 2d

Agree. Especially since it’s moving so fast and incompetent-ly. And it will be horrible for so many but consequences.

Julia Bricklin @juliabricklin.com · 2d

We have huge, strong lock boxes embedded in the sidewalk, fwiw

Julia Bricklin @juliabricklin.com · 2d

I’ve done that. In any other time, I’d say it was fine. But…

This! 👆

Awesome! Thanks! Makes my 40 look paltry but I know it all helps!
