Empathy is a dogma killer. That's why MAGA Christians are going so hard against it. The moment you get close enough to someone to see their humanity, it's much harder to hate them. And MAGA needs their followers to hate the "other." So they demonize empathy, convince their base to ignore empathetic instincts in the face of inhumane policy and BOOM- their dogmatic ideology is protected.
They really let a UFC fighter call our only Black First Lady a man on the White House lawn at an official White House event … while thousands cheered and the biggest podcaster in the world smiled.
There is no economic policy fix for this. Many of these people are just racist.
Josh Hokit won the biggest fight of his career at the White House and decides to finish his interview by calling Michelle Obama a Man.
What a disgrace.
It takes a really small man to use his biggest moment to attack a woman by calling her a man.
Especially with the history behind calling black women men.

The protester killed in Minnesota was openly armed, which is legal in that state. So if the govt. is going to claim that was a legitimate reason to kill him, then the Trump administration has unilaterally repealed the Second Amendment.
BREAKING: A witness who was just 5 feet from Alex Pretti filed an affidavit depicting what she saw.
She says he didn’t touch any of the officers and didn’t appear to be resisting. He was merely helping a woman who had been pepper-sprayed.
She’s is terrified that ICE is looking for her, saying they are lying and she doesn’t know what they will do to her if they find her.
"You can't talk about fight club if there is no fight club"
I think what was intended there was, if there is no fight club, why is there a mandate to not talk about it?

@ReturnOfKappy I adore Aubrey Plaza. She is funny, interesting, & her deadpan delivery is simply excellent.
Some of us have a dark sense of humor & appreciate various types of humor & nuance.
Also, I think you meant to write "accept" (not "except") an award.
Tonight, I spoke with Florida Governor DeSantis and Tampa Mayor Castor for firsthand reports on Hurricane Helene recovery and preparations for Hurricane Milton.
My Administration is ready to support both leaders and the people of Florida with any further resources they may need.
