@heygwenlane.bsky.social documented my show perfectly. We had laughs, we amplified our voices, and we had an awesome night. Thank you Gwen and to everyone in Minnesota for last night. We arenโ€™t done standing up! F*** Ice!!!

The worst part is that everyone knows that he is a pedophile and serial rapist but noone seems to care.
The Republicans would have hung Obama on the white house lawn if he had done anything close to this.

Isn't it strange how people say that #Joe-Biden had dementia and couldn't give a speech. He's standing here adding to the eulogy with no problems. No stumbling no mumbling no mispronouncing words just clear thought and emotion. Thank you Mr Biden

Jesse Jackson never stopped fighting for America, in times of darkness he turned to hope and embodied the light.

White folks are salty about Kamala Harris saying she predicted all this at Rev. Jesse Jacksonโ€™s funeral.

My response? Fuck yโ€™all and stay mad.

You shouldโ€™ve listened.

Another member of the chat, William Bejerano โ€” who tried to start a pro-life group at Miami Dade College โ€” was the primary user of the n-word in the group. At one point, he posted a block of text calling for dozens of acts of extreme violence against Black people, who he referred to using the n-word, including crucifying, beheading and dissecting people. Bejerano hung up the phone when reached by the Herald.

Dariel Gonzalez, the College Republicansโ€™ recruitment chairman at the time, responded in the chat: โ€œHow edgy.โ€ โ€œEw you had colored professors?!โ€ Gonzalez wrote at another point. โ€œI reguse [sic] to be indoctrinated by the coloreds.โ€ He told the group he used the term โ€œcoloredโ€ because, โ€œI was told we cant say black anymore.โ€ A couple days later, he added: โ€œAvoid the coloreds like the plague.โ€ He did not respond to a request for comment. The group chat members โ€” which included some women โ€” also frequently discussed sex, sometimes describing women as โ€œwhoresโ€ and at one point using the k-word, a slur for Jewish people, to describe women they avoid.

Fun fact, fox news once tried to sic a mob on me because I wrote that being hispanic didnโ€™t mean you couldnโ€™t be a white supremacist, because race is subjective and many hispanics identify as white. Completely unrelated hereโ€™s how some Miami Republicans talk in private

Another thing I noticed in my short-lived return to Twitter yesterday is they're running out of snuff content. I saw two different videos from living room Ring cameras of people passing out because they stood up too fast, implying they died. Fascism is facing a critical ragebait shortage.

I wish some major media outlets would do broad reports on the impact of death threats on our politics, and on who's doing them (MAGA men mostly from what I can tell), and why law enforcement appears to be doing so little about them. They are such a big (submerged) part of our politics now.

It cannot be stressed enough how these Republicans donโ€™t see government jobs as jobs at all. They see them as titles, no-show gigs where they can do whatever they want. Thatโ€™s why ๏ฟผthey hated the people in those jobs before, they thought it was a scam because they donโ€™t believe in doing the work.

Trump just held a press conference about war with Iran, and spent much of it talking about drapes and his ballroom. I guess those are the drapes of wrath???
