Voters standing in the cold on the bridge over I65 (I think? Maybe I40) in Nashville holding up a "Vote Aftyn" sign for people in cats during rush hour (which in Nashville is from 2-7).

So touched to see a gerrymandered district fight like hell for @aftynbehn.bsky.social. TN District 7, message your friends and make sure they have a way to the polls before they leave town for Thanksgiving. Everyone votes this time.

"Well, yes, Mamdani and I have our differences. He's a socialist, they say he's a socialist, and I guess he says so too. A democratic socialist, but a socialist. Meanwhile, I'm busy seizing the means of production, forcing a cultural revolution, cracking down on the intelligentsia ...."

Also a good time to remind people that after buying Twitter Elon established new engagement and payment policies to pay these accounts. There's an argument to be made that he was deliberately funding Russian Propaganda.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett has released receipts that reveal that ProPublica has reported that Kristi Noem secretly diverted hundreds of millions of dollars in Department of Homeland Security funds to a consulting firm affiliated with her own campaign.

VP Mike Pence Reveals the Not-So-Hidden Agenda of Christian Nationalism The Man Is No Longer Hinting at the Forced Remigration of Jewish People to Israel

Their views are so unhinged I actually had to stop researching them, but I recorded (what I hope is) a plain-spoken video to explain why they believe, how it connects to what's afoot, and why we should all care. This is a global coup by billionaires + their extremist foot soldiers. It's gotta stop.

VP Mike Pence Reveals the Not-So-Hidden Agenda of Christian Nationalism The Man Is No Longer Hinting at the Forced Remigration of Jewish People to Israel

Christian Nationalists, like Mike Pence, believe Jewish people should "be returned" to Israel, to hasten the end times. Once Nat-C Jesus comes back, Nat-Cs believe Jewish people who don't convert will be cast into hellfire. Researchers + survivors have been raising the alarm for years.

I cannot emphasize enough that Christian nationalists have spent decades weaponizing 1A rights in order to bulldoze the separation of church and state (which they believe to be a myth) and install a theocracy. They only have power because billionaires back them to do their dirty work.

Further, once Jewish people are forcibly deported to Israel & Nat-C Jesus returns, Christian Dominionists believe Jewish people who don't convert to Christianity will be thrown into hellfire. Christian Nationalists are not Christians: they're idolatrous terrorists who create God in bigotry's image.

Trans Studies prof + researcher of Christian nationalism here: What Pence let slip is the plan of Christian Dominionists, who believes in the return (read: deportation) of Jewish people to Israel so that their "Messiah" might return. That Nat-C "Office of Remigration" is serious.

Hi, there. Trans studies prof who studies Christian nationalism. What Pence let slip here is the plan of Christian Dominionism, which believes in the (forcible) return (read: deportation) of Jewish people to Israel so that their "Messiah" might return. That Nat-C "Office of Remigration" is serious.

Missouri challenges FDA approval of new generic mifepristone in push to limit abortion β€’ Missouri Independent The challenge to the latest form of generic mifepristone is part of a larger attempt to limit access to medication abortion at a national level.

Missouri voters overturned a complete abortion ban at the ballot last year.

It is still difficult to receive reproductive care in the state because the Missouri GOP doesn't give two shits about the will or the voices of Missourians.

EVERY day my daughters & I wake up in a nation where a serial rapist of children & women has been elected President twice.

Over the weekend, he said to a female reporter β€œQuiet. Quiet Piggy.” b/c she was … doing her job.

His misogyny is without bounds.

Support of him is misogyny without bounds.

✨boycott with a glowup✨ A recording from your weirdo friend's live video

A potential glow-up for #BlackoutTheSystem: (1) a concrete action around WHAT we want from our targets, maybe issuing a letter in support of democracy and committing to back away from the regime and (2) a celebratory community oriented replacement to a capitalist winter holiday celebrations.
