No, they really have been like this all along. All Trump did was release them from whatever shame they might have had.

Breaking: Tennessee Republicans pass new 9-0 gerrymander after SCOTUS destruction of Voting Rights Act eliminating state’s only majority-Black district & last Democratic seat. Splits Memphis, which is 63% Black, into 3 districts to disenfranchise Black voters. Quite literally a return to Jim Crow

This lady who is married to a super racist lamprey doesn’t understand that there are a lot of older conservative parents who are functionally childless since their kids eventually grow into adults who want nothing to do with them.

I was born in the way late seventies but could never identify with Gen X for a variety of reasons, some of which I think inform their right-ward ideological turn. That’s why I prefer to identify as proto-millennial.

I often use mine to experiment with, though frequently I find myself reproducing results on synths with patch memory rather than record the modular. Building a complex sound can be VERY time consuming in terms of patching and debugging. I like mine, but some learn too late that it’s not for them.

ICE detention deaths are now occurring at a rate of roughly one every four days. Three weeks ago that rate was one every six days. The pace is accelerating, and Congress has not launched a single investigation.

They made them take down the videos because they would cause "reputational damage" to people like this young man, Nathan Cavanuagh, so definitely don't post this all over the internet with the name Nathan Cavanaugh attached, or this guy might suffer reputational damage. This guy, Nathan Cavanaugh.

Also, be sure not to spread this video of Justin Fox, the other DOGE bro who revealed that he's a malicious moron who caused incredible destruction. Do not hurt Justin Fox's reputation just by linking Justin Fox's name to the sworn testimony Justin Fox gave about what Justin Fox did.

Graham Platner, the guy who had to cover his Nazi tattoo to save his senate campaign in Maine, went on the YouTube channel “Valhalla VFT” in January where he said he’s a “longtime fan of the show.” Check out these vile racist thumbnails from the channel & reporting on the antisemitic host.
Screenshot of news article printed in Yahoo from Jewish Insider: “Platner faced blowback this week for boosting a social media comment about a looming war with Iran by Stew Peters, a neo-Nazi influencer who has frequently espoused antisemitic tropes and engaged in Holocaust denial. Platner's team said the post was made in error and "immediately" removed it after learning it elevated a "despicable account."

In late January, however, Platner sat for a lengthy online interview with Nate Cornacchia, a retired Green Beret who has also promoted antisemitic conspiracy theories. Near the end of their hour-long conversation, Platner, a fellow military veteran, called himself "a longtime fan" of Cornacchia's YouTube channel, "Valhalla VFT," and said it was "an absolute pleasure being" on the show.”Screenshots of the Valhalla VFT YouTube channel thumbnails include vile racist images of the “Somali fraud scandal” and “robberies and looting” due to SNAP benefits being cut, depicting black people robbing stores

I am dealing with a “thorny problem” right now, today. It is hard and scary because IT IS ALWAYS HARD AND SCARY. But it is also where you do your best work. It is where stories go from “meh” to “WOW”. When I fix it - because that is the job - I will be that much closer to something worth reading.
