James Talarico: Trump is gerrymandering Texas because his policies are unpopular. They’re kicking millions off their health care to fund tax breaks for billionaires. So they're trying to rig the results of the next election. We cannot allow this to become normal

The people who think the Bible, which was written by mystics, priests, and poets, means only what it literally says are the same people who think the Constitution, which was written by lawyers, cannot possibly mean what it literally says.
Exactly. If they meant freed people, they would have written, "freed people." Instead, they wrote, "all persons" because they meant all persons.

They’re clearly plugging this dude into an IV regularly and, if this were Biden, there would be demands for weekly hour long press conferences from his doctors on his health. But that’s not how authoritarianism works so stop asking questions already.

There aren’t many things worse one can imagine than the loss of a child.
But the loss of a child to a vaccine preventable disease is a pain no parent or family should ever have to bear.
Sowing distrust about vaccines, arguably the greatest public health success of all time, is pure evil.
