If I were so obscenely rich I could drop half a million to take a family member on some risky trip to, say, the bottom of the ocean, I'd probably consider dropping a few thousand extra to hire someone to research whether the guy running the trip was a total clown who ignored blatant engineering and safety issues https://newrepublic.com/post/173802/missing-titanic-sub-faced-lawsuit-depths-safely-travel-oceangate

A journalist is writing a story about the trend I've talked about before -- defamation threats and lawsuits against women telling #metoo type stories of their experiences.

The journalist is interested in talking to people who've received such threats. If anyone is interested email me. I can put you together with the journalist. I've talked to her and she's serious about the story and has a good outlet for it.

Montana Republicans voted to ban Rep. Zooey Zephyr

Why? She made the GOP feel bad when she called them out for “blood on their hands” for their war on transgender rights

The GOP learned from their mistake with the Justins in TN…

Instead of being expelled, Zooey is still seated remotely and disallowed from debates

Her constituents will not have representation until her term is up

Christian fascism.

This is extraordinary.

The Montana House has banned Rep. Zooey Zephyr from the House for the rest of the session.

I wonder how her constituents feel about losing their full representation and their voice.

And so the attack on democracy continues.
In plain sight.

Where the fuck did this weird idea come from that we should welcome Nazis into our midst and “debate” them?!

What’s wrong with people who think like this? These are NAZIS, goddammit.
