this obsession with trans panic is vile


A school district has asked Ted Cruz to pull ads about transgender athletes using an image of two cisgender minors without permission from the girls' families.

We will all be forced to watch unspeakable cruelty to our brothers and sisters. DO NOT be complicit.
To everyone and my lib friends especially, don't call ICE on illegals that you know voted for this. Or do anything for the Shaudenfreude. Don't help the evil-doers. Don't get dirty. These poor souls will pay anyway. I feel sorry for them. I really do. I can't blame a dog for not understanding quadratic equations. Propaganda works.

It's absolutely ridiculous that we keep electing these ancient people who are obviously no longer mentally capable.

Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell briefly left his own press conference Wednesday after pausing his remarks and freezing mid-sentence. After sitting down in his office for several minutes, McConnell returned to the news conference and took questions from the press.

There are plenty of competent people in their 70s and 80s. Biden, trump and McConnell are not ones.

If they’re still doing this in their 70s and 80s, it’s can’t be a hard job. Mental acuity is apparently optional

Instead of dealing with what republicans have done, we will somehow both-sides this, in the name of balance of course, but if democrats did it then deflection would be called out for what it is.


Four years after a network of political operatives orchestrated a scheme to recruit and promote straw candidates to siphon votes away from Democrats in Florida Senate races from Miami to Orlando, five people have taken plea deals or been convicted — but many of the players tied to the scandal have gone unscathed.

State prosecutors secured their latest conviction this week. A Miami jury found former Florida Sen. Frank Artiles guilty in a trial centered around allegations that the ex-lawmaker “stole an election” with the help of a paid candidate. Afterward, Miami-Dade State Attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle referred to Artiles as the “mastermind of the ‘ghost candidate’ scandal” in Miami and said his conviction proved that “we cannot tolerate the violation of our laws just to gain a political advantage.”

But with another election just weeks away, the former Democratic lawmaker hurt by the scheme says the elements that allowed “ghost candidates” to flourish in 2020 remain legal and largely unaddressed by Florida’s Republican-dominated Legislature. And it’s unclear whether investigators intend to continue pulling the threads of an investigation that at different times roped in prominent political consultants, the state’s largest utility and the official campaign committee for Florida’s Republican senators.

“This wasn’t just Artiles, this was an orchestrated thing and there were big-money interests paying into this behind the scenes to make this all happen,” said José Javier Rodriguez, the Democrat who lost his Senate seat by 34 votes after his reelection bid was targeted by Artiles.
