"Patriarchy is like a man, having his boot on a
woman's neck.
Feminism is a woman complaining about the boot. Conservatives insist there wasn't a problem with the boot being on the neck until the woman started talking about it. If she would just be quiet about the boot, there wouldn't be a problem.
Male allies think there's a way to talk about the boot being on the neck that appeals to everyone and doesn't "alienate" those that would help remove the boot.
"Good Guys" insist that not all men wear boots. Women with internalized misogyny insist they have a boot on their neck by choice and they love it! They insist something is wrong with women complaining about the boot.
The boot is never removed from the neck."
-LeAndra Lee Baker-
and if you're determined to never see the brutal, awful truth of *patriarchy* you never will 🙄

None of these constitutional fairytales you comfort yourselves with matter an ounce to fascists. They aren’t following any fucking jaws right now so what makes you think impeachment will remove him THIS time? Didn’t work the last two times. This is fucking ridiculous. It’s time for plan B.

After the midterms we may finally have the numbers in the House & Senate for this to happen. We definitely can't burn anymore time/resources on impeachment "as a gesture" like so many people still seem to want

Number 1: The removal process is too high a bar. Ludicrously so.
Number 2: It's my fellow *white* people that are broken. We're the ones consistently empowering white supremacy.

Hey so, reminder: President Trump was impeached TWICE during his first term.
You folks are really flailing, huh?
As if Republicans would EVER vote to remove Trump from office.
Come up with a new rallying cry. Impeachment ain’t it.

Onward, Christian Soldiers—To War!
At this year’s National Conservatism Conference, a right-wing army prepares to rise.
You have to start thinking of NatCon as the conference that signals the GOP's next moves (much as Values Voters or CPAC used to). Read up on this year's NatCon:

Blood Tribe, which is led by a former Marine and tattoo artist named Christopher “Hammer” Pohlhaus, has staged similar marches around the country. The small bands of marchers typically arrive via rented trucks. They have targeted LGBTQ events and, on their social media pages, claim to be aiming to hold rallies at all 50 state capitols. Pohlhaus has also been linked to a plan to establish a neo-Nazi compound in Maine that was seemingly aborted after it was exposed by the Southern Poverty Law Center.
The neo-Nazi group’s march in Springfield was led by a top associate of Pohlhaus’, Drake Berentz. During the Springfield march, Berentz made remarks where he referenced the child killed in the car crash and suggested the city had been taken over by “degenerate third worlders.” Berentz, who uttered racial slurs and suggested Jews were behind the migrant influx, issued a call to action for people who “are tired of having to share space.”
“No longer do outsiders have to take your resources,”

Two congressmen resigned after accusations of misconduct against women. Another remains.
Rep. Cory Mills (R-Fla.) appears set on staying in Congress as he battles a litany of scandals.
Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick has reportedly resigned from Congress right before the Ethics Committee was to announce sanctions against her.
As @nlanard.bsky.social reported last week, Rep. Cory Mill is STILL hanging on despite facing a staggering number of scandals.
