All around geek. Miniature, video and board game enthusiast. Oh, and books. And Star Wars. Vaccines DO NOT CAUSE AUTISM. No kings. No Nazis. And I don’t respond to DMs.

I wanna talk about censorship on social media for a moment. You can say and show the most horrifically graphic things on Instagram. But YouTube is next-level on censorship. I have repeatedly had videos demonetized or taken down for talking about the things that men do to women.

If the White House Press Corps does anything but boycott all White House events going forward, it's a spectacular act of institutional cowardice. You don't give a *single inch* to fascists—and that means standing together rather than treating fascism as someone else's problem.

On D-Day, 82 years ago, thousands of brave servicemembers stormed Normandy's beaches with one shared goal: defeat fascism, uphold democracy. Today, we honor those who fought for freedom.

🚨HOLY SHIT: MAGA Congresswoman Jen Kiggans tried to COLLUDE with a radio station host to DELETE an interview where she agreed to tell Hakeem Jeffries to keep his “cotton-picking hands” off Virginia. Share this EVERYWHERE to to keep her racism from being buried. #JimCrowJen

BREAKING: An Alabama Senate committee greenlit legislation to use a congressional map previously struck down by the courts under the Voting Rights Act, moving lawmakers closer to a final vote. A House committee vote on a similar bill targeting state senate districts is also expected soon.

Alabama races toward final votes to gerrymander elections already underway

If allowed by federal courts to go into effect, the maps would immediately strip Black voters in the state of political representation in the wake of last week’s U.S. Supreme Court ruling gutting the ...

BREAKING: Funny how the cameras are already in place. Federal raid. Democratic Senator Louise Lucas. Political target. Perfect timing. Maybe it’s corruption. Maybe it’s theater. Either way...don’t be naïve about how power gets used when the stakes get high.

Obama: "What I'm more interested in for Democrats is, do you know how to just talk to regular people like we're not in a college seminar? Can you talk in plain English to folks? And not have a bunch of gobbledygook around it. Just talk like normal people talk. 'The rent is too high.'"

The right are so obsessed with the idea that leftist agitiators on are secretly being paid is simply because their movement is being secretly financed. They also can't imagine why you would take a position that you weren't being paid to take, since they have no actual principles beyond self-interest

Considering that Daily Wire are going bust almost three weeks after Péter Magyar announced that Hungary will no longer fund CPAC, it's at least plausible that Ben Shapiro was more or less dependent on Orbán cash to stay afloat.

I am no James Comey fan. He made a huge contribution to Hillary Clinton losing in 2016. But this is an "I am Spartacus " moment. I am reposting Comey's seashells Arrest me motherfuckers.

Comey Instagram post for which he has been indicted.  Sea shells arranged to form 86 47 on the beach. 

Caption: cool shell formation on my beach walk.

Democrats should gerrymander the hell out of their districts. Neutralize Republican voters. Supreme Court is cool with it so just flex until MAGA cries uncle. Fight fire with fire. You cant be Civil with fascists.

AOC on how Democrats should respond to SCOTUS weakening VRA: “And so if Republicans are going to redraw North Carolina, if they're going to redraw Texas, if they're going to redraw and gerrymander every one of their states, then unfortunately, we have to provide balance to that”
