It's hard for me to figure out what bothers me most about Florida Gov. DeSantis demanding health records of trans students from Florida universities:
- The political targeting of trans people as a culture war issue
- The fact that half the state universities have given records without a fight
- That this bigot is likely to be the Republican nominee for President

Maybe the lawyers and EU and Treasury bureaucrats did not get the memo - putin is at war with the West thru Ukraine. We have to make sure Ukraine wins the war and the peace or putin wins and our very system of government and governance fails.

The cruelty is the point.
Republicans still believe reagan's vile claim about "welfare queens" and just want to hurt these mythical "bums." I work with 5 families helping with various things, SNAP, Medicaid being foremost. I do the paperwork for them. I know my state's rules intimately. I know how important that assistance is.
The insulting things they must sign like not keeping deposit refunds on returnable bottles show republican input to regulations.

Fry: Yeah! That'll show those poor!
Leela: Why are you cheering, fry? You're not rich.
Fry: True, but someday I might be rich and then people like me better watch their step

@stopgopfox So accurate it hurts.
Now we have lots of accounts here doing the same- looking for an easy hit on social media and they’re in my mentions quite a bit now.
I was fortunate to have a few good people correct me when I was susceptible in the past. And I was. Some of them are here still.
Hopefully people in general catch on that there’s a difference between expecting and really demanding the best from our electeds and toxic, hopeless, unbeneficial junk. Thanks for the comment. Always good.
I truly wish Senator Fetterman all the best. I hope he feels better when he's ready. Such a great public servant from PA!

Bear in mind that, while I may "like" your "toot", about a person, event or particular topic, if it links to the "bird-site" I will no longer boost and inadvertently contribute to their grift. Everyone has a choice and a part to play when crimes go unpunished.
