the Austin mass shooter was a Tesla employee who assaulted a coworker during a company-allowed prayer break late last year

Harper to the judge: "Your driver's license doesn't list your height and weight at birth. It doesn't list where you used to live. It identifies who you are now."
Here is a man with more simple moral integrity & courage that the vast bulk of Dem electeds & pundits.
I lack the words to capture it, but ... it's just endlessly remarkable to me that so many people in our society have chosen trans kis -- TRANS KIDS, the smallest, least significant, most vulnerable demographic slice you could possibly pick -- as a repository for all their fears & insecurities.

The White House position is that it is no big deal that Putin is helping Iran try to kill US soldiers.
Always remember rule #1. Putin can do no wrong in Trump’s eyes.
Wonder why that is?
