βItβs the biggest humanitarian emergency on Earth and it happens in the dark, really - there has been far too little attention to what's happening in Sudan."
The fact that some prominent Democrats defend a Maine Senate primary candidateβs Nazi tattoo while he isnβt even leading in polls, but not defend a NYC mayor primary winner from false smears even as heβs leading general election polls says a lot.
That doesnβt seem driven by voter preference.
And Iβm HONORED to have it be my fault

Saying Trump deserves the Nobel peace prize is so bizarre and gross. We donβt know if the ceasefire will hold. He allowed this to continue & even escalate for months. He might encourage ethnic cleansing to build hotels. The bar is subterranean for yβall

This week I wrote about how many mothers are prosecuted for crimes that never happened when their children die but it happens to fathers too. #RobertRoberson is on death row based on the theory that his child died from shaken baby syndrome which is a questionable medical theory

No investigations of Trump supporters as terrorists. No national conversations about the rights of cisgender men.
The silence is deafening.
