The Missouri Republican party is organized christofascism. They are a danger to our State, to our democracy, and to the moral fabric of our nation. May their grandchildren grow to be ashamed of who their grandparents were. #ProtectTransKids

Someone has to say it: Elon Musk has lied for 27 years about his credentials. He does not have a BS in Physics, or any technical field. Did not get into a PhD program. Dropped out in 1995 & was illegal. Later, investors quietly arranged a diploma - but not in science. 🧵1/

Mark Finchem, who has identified himself as a member of the Oath Keepers, has won the Republican nomination for Arizona Secretary of State. An election denier is one step closer to controlling elections in a swing state.
Over 45,000 likes on that antisemitic tweet by Kanye West before it got deleted.
Shrug off Kanye all you want—but the fact that so many people are cheering on antisemitism should disturb you, to say the least.
"Columbus Day" didn't become a federal holiday until 1937—meaning some Americans today are older than this "authentic" US holiday.
Abolish it. Stop whitewashing history. Start celebrating Indigenous Peoples Day. Start paying reparations for all the treaties the US Govt broke.
@piper4missouri So far, it’s been chickens, goats, llamas and alpacas and highland cows for me but now I have to add miniature donkeys to my list of my future farm.
