You can tell a lot about someone by which kinds of political violence they do and don't rush to condemn.

California, Oregon and Washington announced yesterday they’ve created their own health alliance, saying the CDC has become “a political tool that increasingly peddles ideology instead of science.” New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Delaware, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island have now done the same.

I don’t know, maybe when we’re done laughing at federal troops for picking up trash we can talk about how the wealth class has used the state’s resources to create growing labor ranks that can’t question orders or strike with troops, immigrants, and prisoners.

My current favorite bit of right-wing Christian hypocrisy is Ken Paxton, a man whose wife is divorcing him for adultery, forcing Texas schools to unconstitutionally post "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery." www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston...

Paxton tells Texas schools to follow Ten Commandments law despite court ruling
Attorney General Ken Paxton's guidance comes days after U.S. District Judge Fred Biery sided with 16 families who sued their school districts to stop the law from going into effect.
