The Sweeping Anti-Trans Bills Moving Through Congress No One’s Talking About
Republicans are jamming in dozens of anti-trans measures across a series of government funding bills. Few Democrats have spoken out against them. The failure of Democrats, the press and Gay Inc organi...

Cruelty really is the point. Who else would go to court begging for permission to starve their own citizens? Meanwhile, they send $40 billion to Argentina, buying two private jets for ICE “Barbie,” and Trump has already burned through $1 trillion in less than two months.

Why does Trump not give a flying fuck that beyond Christians, there are also Muslims that have been killed by these extremists like Boko Haram? There is no care for those different to his own, and that is a major flaw of and part of the larger moral stain of Donald J. Trump.

Fuck, I love Beach Boys😭 some historians note the name likely put off/deterred unfamiliar crowds to dig in, and I think I get it.
Listen to the cancelled masterpiece—1967 album Smile—I don't get the sense of yaysurf! But something far more “grand” & deep beyond the connotations of the name.
