#ElonMusk and Texas #Repubican governor Greg Abbott gloat over fired state worker who identified his #pronouns in his signature. Their intent is obvious, to promote persecution of minorities and drive them underground while stifling any self-expression at all. Conform or be targeted for state discrimination and abuse. #RepublicansOwnThis #Discrimination #LGBTQ

There is good reason to think the #Republicans can lose in 2024, and that some other candidate, cough #Youngkin cough, would be more electable. Reasonable people are baffled Republicans won't forsake #Trump.

But #electability isn't a concern for #Repubican primary voters, who believe that Joe Biden is #demented and keeps falling down, and believe the #BigLie that Biden already lost to Trump in 2020.

Hat tip to #PodSaveAmerica for giving me new ways to think about this.

More great work from @randyrainbow (hopefully that's him) accurately portraying #KevinMcCarthy and the feckless, brainless, soulless #Repubican party that has fallen so far from the days of Eisenhower that they've managed to make Tricky Dick look good.

Will #McCarthy last longer than #LizTruss ? We'll see! I would be tempted to put my money on the #headoflettuce ...
