#Maddow asked Sen Warner about Hegseth's latest f'up & what Senators Wicker, Ernst & Tillis think about #PeteHegseth now.

@emptywheel says they're responsible for this, since they voted to confirm him.
@nicolesandler & Marcy talked about how we need to make the GOP Senators OWN their votes.

If you are still on X, you might want to AT them & ask if they still support #WhiskeyPete

When in France Mrs. Spocko and I went to Avignon, where several of the antipopes lived in the Palais des Papes (English: Palace of the Popes)
.
I had to go to the bathroom so later I could say,
"I pooped in the Papal Palace."
Marcy Wheeer @emptywheel loves to point out that Senators Wicker, Ernst & Tillis all voted to confirm Pete Hegseth. They're responsible for this.

 If someone uses the incorrect pronouns for someone, especially a trans person, after being corrected and/or uses their deadname (necronym), you're looking at a transphobe, full stop.

No matter how much social justice and anti-bigotry language they may bathe themselves in, no matter how they may position themselves as "advocating for the marginalised", no matter how much you may respect them for other actions, these are *bare minimum* things, right up there with not using ethnic slurs.

p.s. for a trans person, having a necronym outed to the public is literally life-threatening, whether that leads to direct physical abuse (including death) or discrimination and abuse from entities like companies and communities (which can also all too easily lead to death)

p.s. show this to your cis friends because holy hells, right now, the faves and boosts are like 95% trans-fems
