The Conservative Woman's Trifecta of Hate
They HATE anyone who is not just like them to such an extent they accept that conservative men HATE them as women, which must lead to HATE of self…. A never-ending circle of viciousness and bile. It must be exhausting to live with that level of hate. One could almost feel sorry for them – but nah…

I thought long and hard about posting this. But the image is so fucking powerful... horrible and yet a really graphic image of what Trump and his ilk are doing right now... and they are loving every second of the violence and hate they are guilty of.
Horrible, Stark and Accurate (Warning - may be a trigger if you are a victim of sexual violence)

Christian Fundie: God Is Using Trump To Separate The Wheat From The Chaff
During his recent appearance on the “Up Front in the Prophetic” radio program, radical right-wing conspiracy theorist and so-called “firefighter prophet” Mark Taylor declared that support for President Trump will be key in determining who is and is not a true Christian as the End Times arrive.

It is as plain as the nose on our collective faces...
If one has one smidgen of empathy, then one has no other choice than to detest the fascist, loofa-faced shit-gibbon, and all he embodies.
If one has even a grain of humanity, then one is unable to hear the walking talking human combover’s voice or see his face without feeling repulsed.
If one has any integrity, then one must find the orange-tufted imbecile intent on Armageddon to be disgusting.
If one has any decency, one knows that the zen master of hate is beneath contempt.
For those who voted for Comrade Cheetolino and continue to support this ‘presidency’ they are the opposite of empathetic, humane and decent. They are by the very virtue of their choices – merciless, cruel, intolerant and illiberal. VILE BILE…

The economic illiterate has a problem... he cannot go to Daddy or Deutsche for a bailout and he cannot file Chapter 11 and run away.... what is Twitler to do?!?!
Trump is terrified a recession is coming -- and he has no plan if it does: report
“Trump is growing increasingly worried the economy won’t look so good come Election Day.”
But most worrying of all is that the White House seems utterly unprepared if a recession does hit. The Republican Party has already expended much political capital on a deficit-busting tax cut and spending increases, and any effort to stimulate the economy through fiscal policy would likely spur fissures among the GOP’s rank and file. Trump’s main plan to stave off economic pain thus far appears to be berating Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell.

Trump administration asks Supreme Court to legalise firing employees just for being transgender
The Trump administration is asking the Supreme Court to set a legal precedent that would make it acceptable to fire an employee for being transgender.
The wording of the brief, filed on Friday, would only protect workers from discrimination based on their “biological sex”:
Title VII does not prohibit discrimination against transgender persons based on their transgender status. It simply does not speak to discrimination because of an individual’s gender identity or a disconnect between an individual’s gender identity and the individual’s sex.
The Justice Department’s argument is that “the ordinary public meaning of ‘sex’ was biological sex” when the Civil Rights Act passed in 1964.
Under Barack Obama, the Justice Department asserted that Title VII of the Civil Rights Act did protect transgender workers but erstwhile attorney general Jeff Sessions reversed that stance the year Donald Trump took office.
