I know Trump and his minions all have sneering contempt for kids with special needs, but trust me when I say that their parents will absolutely fucking destroy anyone who messes with the special education supports to which they are entitled by law.

RFK Jr. has a new theory on autism. He thinks circumcision could be a factor. It confirms what many of us have suspected for a long time. They genuinely believe their brains are in their dicks.

I knew Fox News was theater. I just didn't realize it was a repertory theater that recycles actors for different roles. You'd think a company that had to pay $787,000,000 for deceiving its viewers would be a little more careful about blatantly continuing the practice.

Trump is defunding the police where he can so he can fill the void with his masked Gestapo. He did it in DC, and he tried it in New York but balked. Additionally, Pam Bondi is investigating the Portland police bureau because they arrested a right wing agitator. Pay attention.
