Yes, that may be true, and I respect neurodivergence. I don’t have Asperger’s, but my wife still sometimes has to give me “scripts” for better social behavior. But that is not what people are reacting to here. They are reacting to Musk ripping the hearts out of millions of Americans with slash-and-burn cuts to jobs, benefits, and basic security. Neurodivergence may explain awkwardness. It does not excuse cruelty backed by power.

RFK Jr. isn’t just an ill-informed health “secretary.” He’s a God-awful human being. This is a photo of him and his second wife, Mary Richardson Kennedy, who died by suicide in 2012.

As if a family member dying this way wasn’t horrific enough, RFK launched a legal battle against Mary’s family to have her buried on the Kennedy family plot.

He won.

But that’s not the problem.

Two months after Mary was buried on the Kennedy family plot, he personally ordered her body exhumed and moved to a remote, empty section on a hillside within the same cemetery.

Alone.
No longer by his family.
And not even in the same state as hers.

RFK’s “reason”⁉️ The original site was “too crowded.” Kennedy said he planned to establish a new family plot in the remote area, reportedly negotiating to buy up to 50 surrounding plots.

14 years later, that still hasn’t happened.

And if that wasn’t bad enough, RFK did all this without having the basic decency to notify Mary’s family.

RFK is a terrible “health” secretary, but an even worse human being.

A entire region of National Parks just unionized.

About 650 workers in eight states and over 10 parks have won their union.

The parks represented include:
- Glacier National Park
- Grand Canyon National Park
- Grand Teton National Park
- Rocky Mountain National Park

And more.

ICE agents threaten a woman with prosecution for a post that simply called for Jonathan Ross to be indicted for killing Renee Good. This administration regularly acts as if the 1st Amendment does not exist.

Donald Trump spent MILLIONS on a FAILED vanity project that is now covered in algae while families struggle to afford food and gas. 

Trump is focused on the wrong priorities.

If Elon thinks he hasn't killed children with his USAID cuts, he needs to subscribe to Jeff Bezos's paper.

When Suza Kenyaba tested positive for malaria she could have been saved if treated promptly. But Elon had thrown the free USAID-provided medication "into the wood chipper."

Today is the anniversary of the day SCOTUS cost women the right to make choices about their bodies for themselves & I have not forgotten. When I vote, the most important issue I consider is which candidate will protect me and my daughter from becoming second class citizens.

US JUDGE BLOCKS TRUMP ADMINISTRATION FROM USING REVAMPED IMMIGRATION DATABASE FOR VOTER ROLL CHECKS. Reuters:

[Mike Young @micyoung75]

The CDC permanently discontinued measles immune response testing while the largest domestic measles outbreak in a generation is still active. The poxvirus lab lost half its staff. The CDC itself is down 20-25%. RFK Jr. spent years undermining MMR confidence. The administration is now removing the surveillance infrastructure that tracks the consequences of that. Both things are federal policy.

The only ones benefitting from this are the contractors set to pocket billions of your tax dollars while destroying Texas' crown-jewel national park.

BREAKING: RED ALERT! Anti-ICE protestors in Texas get sentenced to FIFTY YEARS IN PRISON by a Trump-appointed judge in an outrageous North Korean-style kangaroo court to punish free speech!

This should terrify every one of us…

A group of nine protestors were convicted of bullshit terrorism charges from a Fourth of July protest at an immigrant detention facility in Alvarado, Texas, south of Fort Worth.

The protestors had fireworks to set off in solidarity with those poor individuals detained inside. Police arrived and immediately escalated the situation, leading to the slashing of tires of ICE vehicles, and breaking a security camera.

One protestor fired a shot at one of the guards, hitting him in the arm, in order to stop him from shooting one of the protesters.

Benjamin Song, the shooter, received 100 years in prison.

His fellow protesters Zachary Evetts, Autumn Hill, Savanna Batten, Elizabeth Soto and Meagan Morris were sentenced to 50 years in prison. Maricela Rueda, another demonstrator, was sentenced to 70 years in prison.

In comparison, the leader of the Proud Boys received 22 years in prison for attacking the Capitol on January 6th.

All six were convicted of riot, providing material support to terrorists, and explosive charges.

Three of the defendants weren’t involved in the planning and left after the guards told them to; one of them WASN’T EVEN THERE but got 30 years in prison for “moving leftwing zines.”

The judge stacked the charges together and gave outrageously long sentences to the protesters, who were smeared as “antifa.”

As if you needed any more proof, the Trump-appointed judge said explicitly said he was handing down maximum sentences to "send a message" to anyone else who shares this ideology of caring for other people and exercising their rights to protest.

The protesters plan to appeal their insane sentences.

The implications of this are DEEPLY disturbing. “If you’ve ever worn black to a protest, used Signal, or carried a first aid kit, a federal jury just decided that can all be evidence of terrorism,” writes organizer Hannah Riley Fernandez on Twitter.

With Trump judges installed across the country, Trump and his goons are clearly ready to hand down massive sentences in kangaroo courts in order to brutally punish anyone who dares to protest his appalling persecution of immigrants.

Fascism has come to America.

I haven't gotten a clear answer on this yet: if Democrats cheat in every election, why do we have a Republican house, senate, and white house and SCOTUS?

[Boze Herrington, Library Owl 😴🧙‍♀️ @SketchesbyBoze]

I find it deeply depressing how schools are gutting their humanities programs to become glorified tech labs. In Fahrenheit 451, the abolition of reading began when colleges stopped teaching the liberal arts. Without history, literature, music, we have no culture and no future.
