By the time the #DOJ gets to #Trump, sentence recommendations will be in the low triple digits! LOL.

Florida Republicans believe neither in freedom, nor small government, nor the sanctity of the family. Senate Bill 254 legalizes the kidnapping of trans children from their families.

"Not only will this subject numerous transgender kids to the hell of conversion therapy, but it will allow the state to threaten to terminate political opponents' custody rights over their cisgender kids unless they immediately bend the knee and fall silent, as SB254 classifies the *allegation* that kids may be given gender-affirming care as an "emergency" in and of itself and does not force plaintiffs to provide any evidence whatsoever that said kids are actually transgender before seizing them."

Their long-term goal is not just to terrorize young trans people, but to take advantage of transphobia as a means to achieve totalitarian control. In the long run, this threatens everyone, not just young trans people and their families.

"When Republicans embraced Trump as their nominee in 2016, they knew they were tying their party to a narcissist. As the song goes, they knew damn well he was a snake." https://plus.thebulwark.com/p/trump-claims-to-believe-in-loyalty

GOP will try to define Hakeem Jeffries as scary Black man who must be stopped from becoming Speaker in 2024.

Quelle surprise 😏

Axios:
"It was the first shot in what GOP strategists say will be an ongoing campaign to define Jeffries as out of the political mainstream. It will be part of the GOP's argument why it should keep control of the House in 2024 — and stop Jeffries from becoming speaker."

NEW from Jessica Priest and I:

Three churches in Abilene directly donated to the campaign of a candidate who also happens to be a pastor at a 4th church. It's a clear violation of the IRS's Johnson Amendment and a new level of brazenness for churches entering the political arena.

@gwfoto It seems the graph of the number of #Republicans criminally enriching themselves over time has transformed from linear to exponential. The only ones who apparently weren't massively gorging themselves at the money trough got butted out of the party by the truly great hogs who remain.

The #CitizensUnited #SCOTUS boondoggle invited them all to come dine on the proceeds of our hard work (not theirs) and to please use our political system to wipe their chins with.

@shantini Very true. Out of about 35 iOS Devs at my work, I'm the only woman 👀. Crazy...
