Justification for voting for Trump.

Look, your guy was worse. There is quite a bit of Clinton's episodes recently on the internet, perhaps an attempt to soften Trump's image since he seems to be their nominee for now by a mile.

Justification does not have to be good justification, if your mind is already made up.

Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.) said that the definition of a “white nationalist” is a matter of “opinion” during a television interview Monday night in which he was given the opportunity to clarify remarks from this spring in which he appeared to be advocating for white nationalists to serve in the U.S. military... He pushed back against host Kaitlan Collins when she told him that by definition white nationalists are racist because they believe their race is superior to others... Tuberville at one point in the back and forth characterized white nationalists as people who hold “a few probably different beliefs.”

This knuckle-dragging clown, who is also holding up military promotions to protest DoD policy on abortion, sounds like Whell attempting to deny Trump's fascism.

Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch is demanding access to information about Mississippi residents who obtain abortions or gender-affirming care in other states.

She and 18 other GOP AGs say investigators need it to enforce their states' laws.

^^Isn't right to privacy in the constitution, especially for medical procedures?

Not exactly. It is, however, protected by HIPAA.

Just what are these fools going to do to someone doing something that's legal where it's done but illegal in Mississippi? The evangelical wet dream of a nationwide abortion ban likely will never happen.

Is Today's Trumpist GOP Fascist?

Here is an article illustrating how the DeSantis attack on higher education in Florida takes its inspiration from Mussolini and Victor Orban.
