On November 5, 2024 the United States of America overdosed on a mixture of bigotry, willful ignorance, hypocrisy and performative cruelty in an apparent murder/suicide attempt. Looks like we’ll know relatively soon whether it was fatal.

The #GOP tolerates a deranged child rapist so women can die more readily while pregnant; so trans kids can be bullied by their own country; so we can violate international laws; so the worst people can billion their billions; so the economy can be burned; so everything can be worse.

This is such an important point…folks really need to be paying attention

The media needs to stop writing headlines like “The CDC changes course on vaccines and autism” and “The CDC defends measles response”.
NONE of this is coming from legitimate scientists at the CDC.
ALL of it is coming from RFK Jr.
Every such headline is causing further harm to public health.

Congresswoman Becca Balint delivers a scathing statement on Trump. I appreciate this, seriously - but what’s up with the 25th Amendment ⁉️

Mr President don't listen to the naysayers. Your political program, "Crash the economy and bring back ancient diseases" just needs more time to work

Trump: "Venezuela is completely surrounded by the largest Armada ever assembled ... It will only get bigger, and the shock to them will be like nothing they have ever seen before — Until such time as they return to the USA all of the Oil, Land, and other Assets that they previously stole from us."

Every major news organization should be writing about how insane this is and how, if he takes this country to war (tomorrow?), it is the act of a madman.

Asking trump why or giving him an out to disavow what he said is like asking a raccoon why it keeps raiding your garbage can. It's it's nature, it likes garbage, it rolls in garbage and probably has rabies.
Better to cut to the chase and ask him why he is garbage.

Speaking ill of the dead is controversial, particularly when it was a violent death. It’s edgy; it’s sensitive; best avoided in most cases, etc.
Baselessly making another person’s murder *about yourself,* and then approving of it, is a different thing. That is delusional, narcissistic, sociopathic.

This is because Nate Silver has 300K subscribers on Substack and Heather Cox Richardson has 2.7M. Mediocre men CAN'T STAND successful women, and even blame them for their own failures. Pathetic.

One way that the reaction to Rob Reiner's murder mirrors Charlie Kirk's is that the best way to eulogize each of them is to quote their words, and in both cases, doing so pisses off conservatives.
Rob Reiner: “Silence in the face of authoritarianism is complicity. Speaking out is a patriotic act. Democracy doesn’t defend itself. It requires participation, vigilance, and courage from ordinary people."

Donald Trump’s Monday morning post on Truth Social about the shocking death of Hollywood star Rob Reiner and his wife Michele Singer started out calling it, “A very sad thing.” But it quickly took an ugly turn in an attack that left onlookers sickened — including many of the president's own fans.Jus...
