MAGA has been telling us who they are for years. Bessent is just white trash in an expensive suit. The dregs of society are leading us. We must shame them and push them back under the rocks trump allowed them to crawl out from under. We must hold them legally accountable as well.

When most white Christians talk about 'God' or 'Jesus' or 'Christ' or 'Heaven' or 'Christendom' or 'the Church', they just mean white supremacy. This has pretty much always been true since the dawn of modernity.

Holy shit FOUR members of the ethics committee in Denmark that gave the green light to allow the widely-condemned RFK Jr-funded trial to proceed in Guinea-Bissau have now resigned in protest This quote is 🔥 Great reporting by @melodyschreiber.com www.theguardian.com/society/2026...
Stig Børsen Hansen, a founding member who was one of two reviewers who presented the study to the Danish committee, resigned from the group in protest on Friday, citing major ethical issues with the study.

“You are now enrolling newborns in a lottery to test a hypothesis,” Hansen said. The children who are randomly selected not to receive the birth dose of the vaccine, those who “lost the lottery”, face in their earliest days the risk of contracting hepatitis B, which can cause irreversible lifelong damage. “They contract hepatitis B in the context of being part of a research project,” Hansen said, which made their infection happen, in effect, “by design”.

Three other members of the committee have also resigned in protest.

UK friends! Was Life on Mars a popular #BBC show? I’m waiting on a few new series to come back on Britbox and I found this one. Watching it in 2026 you really can see how the world has changed if it’s a realistic view of Manchester in the ‘70’s. And the music is really great!
