Tams the Elder @tamstheelder.bsky.social · 18/06/2025A little more about the new executive order. I find it particularly offensive on the same day the Supremes upheld Tennessee’s ban on all transgender treatment for minors. They did not just privatize transgender treatment, they banned it entirely. 141 4

Tams the Elder @tamstheelder.bsky.social · 15/05/2025Now MTG is trying to get 45/47 to pardon George Floyd’s killer. Of course he’ll frame it as a demonstration of his support for law enforcement. We know better! 020 2

Tams the Elder @tamstheelder.bsky.social · 15/05/2025My friend Libraryanna pointed out that Floyd’s killer was convicted of state crimes, so he cannot be pardoned by Trump. I think he pled guilty to federal charges after the state jury convinced but I doubt the federal charges carry life. 110 1
Tams the Elder @tamstheelder.bsky.social · 15/05/2025ICE just left a boy on the sidewalk when they arrested his parent off the street!

Tams the Elder @tamstheelder.bsky.social · 15/05/2025Amen, brother. Amen. Same problem the Supremes created w/ Citizens United.

Tams the Elder @tamstheelder.bsky.social · 15/05/2025Looks like another pardon I may drop any minute. Shall we just assume that all assaults on police will be forgiven? Should we just tell police that they will be pardoned no matter what they do? 351 5

Tams the Elder @tamstheelder.bsky.social · 06/05/2025I saw the television ad pushing “self deportation” and it was cringe-worthy.
