There is a major political organization allied with the president that got so mad a Latino artist was tapped to play at the Super Bowl they made a whole alternative show. We should all take a moment to reflect on that. It is so blatantly racist.

There's a prominent Republican congressman who met his current wife when she was in high school and he was in his 40s, and it's just treated like no big deal by his caucus.

Worth remembering when they dismiss the Epstein Files stuff as no big deal.
this might sound bad. but if you look into the story it's actually much, much worse prospect.org/2022/04/08/h...

the expectation that the people whose rights you consider negotiable should still vote for you because you don't want to immiserate them quite as much is contemptible. it makes you wholly untrustworthy because you're clearly willing to hurt them more than your opening position. fuck you.
