Churches rely on the unpaid labor of women, and they need to keep them in submissive roles. Gay people creating family units and partnerships are threats to traditional marriage. It requires only allowing families that include a woman submitting to a man to keep the machinery of churches running.

The reason churches hate gays so much has little to do with homosexuality and everything to do with misogyny.

Only the opposite - demands everyone slaughter the veal calves with their own hands and eat them raw.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.

No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.

Signal Chat Leak Angers U.S. Military Pilots Men and women who have taken to the air on behalf of the United States expressed bewilderment after the leak of attack plans. “You’re going to kill somebody,” one pilot said.

American military pilots no longer trust that their safety is a priority of the Pentagon.

That’s absolutely unacceptable. Hegseth must go.

Our only bad experience was coming back into the states. The us border patrol guy was a total ahole. Harassed us about even considering going out of the country for education. Gave our daughter a hard time when he asked her what she wanted to study, and she replied ‘math or genetics’.

We went to Canada last week to visit universities. Everyone was lovely, even one guy who seemed to think Trump isn’t so bad (I think he was very naive about the state of things).

Man, I fucking love this. We should be exuberant in our protests, in our solidarity, in our abilities to make these treasonous assholes PAY for what they’re doing to us and to our country.

Go. Fight. Win. Be the change… and enjoy yourselves!

The Supreme Court ruled corporations were allowed to donate unlimited amounts to politicians in 2010.

It only took them 6 years to take complete control of the government and 15 years to mark sure their voices are the only ones the masses ever hear again.

I did, sadly :(

This is not a mandate, sure he won the popular vote but it’s not a mandate.

Hi! Who is this?

Forced birth in a country with:

This isn't about "life." It's about control.
