The Wall Street Journal just found a gay neocon to deplore the word “queer”? What is this, 1993?

Sen. Warren: The Trump administration can’t explain why we entered this war or what the goals are. One thing is clear: while there’s no money for the 15 million Americans who lost their health care, there’s $1 billion a day to spend on bombing Iran.

I’ve only met a few of the Epstein survivors but the ones I’ve talked to are amazingly strong. The thing that they’ve said to me, the thing that I’ve not seen reported though I’m sure someone has reported it somewhere is that they face a ton of harassment from people online.

He was doing what many have been saying white men should be doing. He went outside to observe, he documented, he put his body on the line to protect another person and for this he was murdered by the gatekeepers of the fascist regime.

People who were actually enslaved believed that chattel slavery would end one day. I'm sorry but to me that suggests that you [who are not enslaved in 2026] can also imagine an end to the current horrors.

I feel like a bluesky scold for harping on this, but the constant racist misspelling and mispronunciation of Zohran’s name by the right is just another sign of how bankrupt they are morally.
