Republicans spent the entire election screaming about how the Democrats were saying and doing all these things (especially regarding LGBTQ issues) that they were not doing, and stupid voters believed them. The loudest message penetrates.

Immediate pre-order! Can't wait to read it.

We loved that show! We still refer to my husband as "Not the Mama."

Man, I wish I could cancel my WaPo subscription another time. Double down on that cancellation. A little cancellation exclamation point, if you will.

Do they just "gild" new crap and glue it to the walls of the Oval every day now? It's spreading like an STD

They'll have the plan out in two weeks, right?

Clarence Thomas Admits That He’s Coming for Our Rights In a little-covered speech, the Supreme Court justice explained how he thinks the court should reverse rulings conservatives don’t like.

Clarence Thomas announced that he doesn't care about precedent and is making it up as he goes along. He didn't say it *like that* of course, because then people would have noticed.
But I noticed, through the jargon, and explain it here in @thenation.

I hope it's clear to everyone now that Trump really is going for it - he's trying to become a dictator. I don't know if he'll succeed, but he's working to install himself as an autocrat unaccountable to voters. And he's weaponizing the military against Americans who oppose him as part of that effort

There's a dead and uncomfortable silence in that room. The generals are not playing along with him.

He really, really wants to kill the economy, doesn't he? This will hit the construction/renovation market very hard

Cancelled Disney Plus. Supporting free speech and saving a few dollars to boot. Buh-bye!

RFK Jr's war on vaccines is about shaming women, not helping kids The MAHA movement regards all childhood ailments as a sign that moms are failing

Looking at RFK's recent moves, including an attack on the hepatitis B vaccine and on painkillers for pregnant women.

The common theme: That all children's health problems are due to "bad" mothers.

This isn't about making kids healthy. It's misogyny.

Damn, that's even worse. Wow. Even more glad that I cancelled my subscription in response.

What's with all these people saying Democrats have to run candidates who are pro-life, don't care about climate change, and don't want to protect LGBTQ rights?

If I wanted that kind of candidate, I'd vote for a fucking Republican.

Let me be clear: I will NOT vote for those candidates.

Um, climate change and LGBTQ rights are at the core of why I vote Democratic...

OK, this was the straw that broke the camel's back. I've cancelled my subscription to @washingtonpost.com. I've been reading/subscribing to the paper since I moved to DC in 1988, but I can't in good conscience continue to support the paper in it's current form.

I was at the farmer's market yesterday and a woman was giving out free samples of her spiced nuts. I tasted no spice on them at all.

I have muted a certain person's name on here for 7 days and it's making my feed much more bearable.

This may be the final straw for me, the one that finally leads me to cancel my subscription. I've only been holding on this long because you're my local paper.

GOP greatly overestimates the number of fucks GenX and younger give about Bill Clinton.

She is truly amazing. She needs more work that showcases that talent. She hasn't been in anything as impactful since the show ended.
