"Transgender people"

Republicans are much too focused on the first word in this descriptor to even notice the second one: PEOPLE.

Societies collapse when entire groups of people are ostracized, demonized, & stripped of their very humanity.

[igorvolsky @igorvolsky]

Trump's effort to eradicate transgender people:

1. sought to bar transgender people from serving in the military

2. challenged civil rights protections for trans people in the ACA

3. narrowly defining gender to roll back recognition and protection in govt programs

Folks,no one uses the term “n-word” when talking about nuclear weapons. That term refers to only one thing & Trump used it for a MAGA candidate running for the Senate against @CheriBeasleyNC. This is the kind of white nationalist,dog whistle rhetoric that has no place in America.

Constitution Day is the perfect time to remind everyone that Thomas Jefferson said we should rewrite the Constitution every 20 years so that modern society would not be ruled by the dead. — I say it’s high time for an update.

In this 1974 Herblock cartoon, President Nixon says to Republicans, "Listen, are you going to be loyal to me or to that (expletive deleted) Constitution?"

An Alabama county is detaining women in jail (without a criminal conviction) "for weeks or months" based on the idea that they're pregnant and their fetus should be protected. https://t.co/3Q7WpiTr94

White evangelicals/conservatives support/defend:

Death penalty

Extrajudicial Murder

Blocking anti lynching bills

Policies that help spread a deadly virus

Defunding programs that support poor children

but want us to think their abortion bans are based on respect for life.

@marceelias The most offensive thing about Pete's yammering is the term "real Americans". Are the Cons pivoting away from the label "patriot" because of all the "patriots" who desecrated the Capitol on January 6?
