It's a violation of parental rights to use a child's preferred pronouns but not forced permanent tattoo? And dirty needles? They should all be charged with endangering the welfare of a child.

Hey, something has to be done with all the vaccine needles going unused.
 
Make sure to test them for measles when you're getting those Hepatitis checks ran.
 
A privately run facility that gets paid per person per day is illegally keeping people in custody. I'm shocked, shocked I tell you.

From the same administration that put children in animal cages. Not surprised at all.
 
The Authoritarian Regime Survival Guide

authoritarianism-trump-putin-autocracy-desantis-gop.jpg


The text below, dubbed the "Authoritarian Regime Survival Guide", was published in social media in January 2017 in a series of improvised, spontaneous tweets, which reached 3 million views within one month. Their common element was their trademark signature, “- With love, your Eastern European friends”, and the accompanying hashtag #LearnFromEurope.

The Guide went viral in the US and many other countries, being translated into several languages, from Turkish to Filipino. It was printed on placards during anti-Trump protests, studied at two American universities, quoted by CNBC’s Joy Reid on national TV and recommended by former US Secretary of Labor Robert Reich.

Excerpts and summaries were published by various on-line media, but this is the first time it is published as a whole.

YEAR 1 Under Authoritarianism
What to Expect?


1. They will come to power with a campaign based on fear, scaremongering and distorting the truth. Nevertheless, their victory will be achieved through a democratic electoral process. But beware, as this will be their argument every time you question the legitimacy of their actions. They will claim a mandate from the People to change the system.

Remember – gaining power through a democratic system does not give them permission to cross legal boundaries and undermine said democracy.

2. They will divide and rule. Their strength lies in unity, in one voice and one ideology, and so should yours. They will call their supporters Patriots, the only “true Americans”. You will be labelled as traitors, enemies of the state, unpatriotic, the corrupt elite, the old regime trying to regain power. Their supporters will be the “People”, the “sovereign” who chose their leaders.

Don’t let them divide you – remember you’re one People, one Nation, with one common good.

3. They will subjugate state media, turning them into a propaganda tube. Then, through convoluted laws and threats they will attempt to control all mainstream media and limit press freedom. They will ban critical press from their briefings, calling them “liars”, “fake news”. They will brand those media as “unpatriotic”, acting against the People (see point 2).

Fight for every media outlet, every journalist that is being banned, censored, sacked or labelled an “enemy of the state” – there’s no hope for freedom where there is no free press.

4. They will create chaos, maintain a constant sense of conflict and danger. It will be their argument to enact new authoritarian laws, each one further limiting your freedoms and civil liberties. They will disguise them as being for your protection, for the good of the People.

See through the chaos, the fake danger, expose it before you wake up in a totalitarian, fascist state.

5. They will distort the truth, deny facts and blatantly lie. They will try to make you forget what facts are, sedate your need to find the truth. They will feed “post-truths” and “alternative facts”, replace knowledge and logic with emotions and fiction.

Always think critically, fact-check and point out the truth, expose ignorance with facts.

Fox has found a new conspiracy!

Democrats don't want children to learn cursive so they can't read the Constitution.
Which is available in print in every library, bookstore, on line. It is distributed in print by numerous organizations.

Perhaps Trump should read it. If he is capable of understanding written English.

The only ones trying to stop children and others from reading the constitution is the Republicans. Removing it from the Whitehouse website was one of the first things they did.

More projection.
 
Candace Owens announced her next project is exonerating Harvey Weinstein.

I guess the Hitler admirer found one Jew she likes.
 
Republicans told not to hold town halls because their constituents are too pissed off.

But wait! Not true. Mike Johnson said protesters are being paid by you guessed it, the Jews.

But, I thought they were doing the peoples mandate. This shows they know it's not, and they are trying to silence the people and go ahead with all this crap anyway. They should all be fired.
 
Mike Johnson's chief of staff was arrested for DUI after Trump speech when he ran his car into a Capitol vehicle. Fortunately no one was hurt. DUI carries struct penalties in DC including fir first offense 180 days in jail and suspended license. Think he's going to jail? Me neither.
 


I don’t know, y’all, maybe the entire concept of prisons is bad


It's a vicious circle, but our country produces a lot of people who belong nowhere else, unfortunately.

Prison culture is probably the most toxic environment that exists in any society.

Oh well, lol! Guess we gotta keep pumping money into the child gladiator fights!

This is such a cowardly acceptance. "We've tried nothing and it didn't work!"

I don't accept child gladiator fights, unless they get to kill their own molesters, or the people who murdered their family member, or the people who sold the heroin their loved one OD'd on, or stole their grandma's life savings.

It is also incredibly bad at helping people become law-abiding.

About 75% of all criminals in the US prison system are nonviolent.

We can and should do far FAR better
 
MAGA world unhappy because extreme right Stepford wife Amy Coney Barrett has a few times shown independence. They complain she is obviously a DEI hire because she's a woman. The men Trump appointed never rule against him!

Newsmax host berated viewers upset price of eggs and other food has not gone down, in fact, has gone up. Trump isn't a wizard! He can't magically lower prices!

Except he campaigned on lowering prices on day one "so fast your head will spin".
 
Jeff Bezos killed Washington Post editorial endorsing Kamala Harris. He censors editorial content. He paid $40 million for film on Melania no one is interested in. Now Prime Video is running old episodes of the Apprentice. No groveling is too abusing for Bezos.

Trump was a joke. A punchline. The epitome of failure, bankruptcy after bankruptcy, constant business failures, unsuccessful lawsuits. The Apprentice gave him a camera and a script. He presented to the world as successful businessman and great deal maker. Also good guy.

Makes as much sense as seriously thinking Catriona Balfe is a time traveler because she plays one on TV.
