Trans is picked up on our local paper. Had some reports autistic and some other 'popular psycho acronyms'. Some paywalled, some were google description mentions it but article already changed.
People don't want mass murderers to be 'one of them' but keep in mind, most are.

It is what it is, the stupid thing is it's nearly always really, really obvious whenever someone has mass shooter tendencies so it's always stupid whenever people extrapolate being trans or autist into being a mass shooter tendency. no, we don't all act like f*****g adam lanza. I really hate stupid generalizations

At this point the best thing Trump can do for the world is drop dead. It's not like his existence benefits society in any way. There's too much precious oxygen being wasted on this worthless piece of excrement.

Everything he has has been handed to him on a silver platter, so he has no idea how to adapt to new situations, because other people have always done the heavy lifting for him.

As public approval ratings of the Trump administration's mass deportation program continue to crater, border czar Tom Homan announced on Thursday that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is ending its two-month surge that sent thousands of federal immigration officers to Minnesota.
President Donald Trump has nominated for director of the National Park Service an executive from a hospitality company that holds extensive contracts with the agency he would lead.
The nomination of Scott Socha late Wednesday follows widespread firings within the Park Service as part of efforts by Trump's Republican administration to sharply reduce its size. The administration also has faced blowback for the removal or planned removal of national park exhibits about slavery, climate change and the destruction of Native American culture.
Administration officials have said they are removing “disparaging” messages under an order last year from Trump. Critics accuse it of trying to whitewash the nation’s history.
A year ago, U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he wanted to rebuild trust in federal health agencies, and vowed to employ “radical transparency” to do it.
But many types of health information that steadily flowed from the government for years or decades has been delayed, deleted and in some cases stopped all together.
President Donald Trump said he's still not inviting two Democratic governors to a bipartisan meeting and dinner next week at the White House, despite the National Governors Association suggesting the president agreed to meet with all its members.
A federal judge has sided with Sen. Mark Kelly to stop Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth from punishing the former Navy captain for advising troops not to follow illegal orders.
U.S. District Judge Richard Leon, in a Thursday ruling, issued a preliminary injunction blocking the Pentagon’s effort to demote the Arizona Democrat’s rank and reduce his retirement pay.
“This Court has all it needs to conclude that Defendants have trampled on Senator Kelly’s First Amendment freedoms and threatened the constitutional liberties of millions of military retirees,” Leon wrote. “To say the least, our retired veterans deserve more respect from their Government, and our Constitution demands they receive it!”
The Trump administration on Thursday revoked a scientific finding that long has been the central basis for U.S. action to regulate greenhouse gas emissions and fight climate change, the most aggressive move by the Republican president to roll back climate regulations.
The rule finalized by the Environmental Protection Agency rescinds a 2009 government declaration known as the endangerment finding that determined that carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases threaten public health and welfare. The Obama-era finding is the legal underpinning of nearly all climate regulations under the Clean Air Act for motor vehicles, power plants and other pollution sources that are heating the planet.
Fertility rates in the U.S. dropped to an all-time low in 2024, according to federal data, with fewer than 1.6 children per woman, part of a global pattern of plummeting fertility. It’s largely a result of people getting married later, in addition to fear about the state of the economy and financial stability. The Congressional Budget Office warned last month that by 2030, for the first time in modern history, more Americans will die than be born, leaving immigrants as the only source of population growth. But Trump has actively tried to thwart immigration, and consequently, economists have warned of negative net migration leading to labor shortages, less consumer spending, and shrinking GDP growth.
The Trump administration announced that it would roll back a landmark 2009 scientific finding that greenhouse gases “pose a threat to public health and welfare,” according to reporting from The Wall Street Journal. Trump’s baffling move is clearly intended as the first step in gutting the Environmental Protection Agency’s authority to regulate the major polluters that disproportionately donate to Republican politicians. It is also classic Trump — short-term thinking without any concern for long-term consequences.
President Trump has increasingly tested how far political retribution can stretch into the justice system, but his efforts to prosecute his perceived political opponents during his second term have repeatedly fallen short.

It's almost like it's intentional disinformation intended to demonize specific minorities.

Absolutely. He seems very much like a man who has never directly dealt with adversity or consequences.

I had a debate once with a MAGA person who unironically believed that trans people were committing the vast majority of the shootings. I realized it was because outlets like Fox News were solely focusing on the one shooting committed by a trans person and didn't cover the other shootings at all. There's a reason Fox News has to list themselves as "entertainment" rather than "news" to avoid getting penalized for spreading disinformation. I've also debated people who have no idea that Trump is in the Epstein files and think it's just Clinton and a bunch of Democrats and Hollywood celebrities. The level of ignorance of people on the right from never leaving their right-wing echo chamber and media bubble is astounding. Like there are major news stories that these people never hear about, because they don't play into the MAGA narrative.

Ironically they fell for a psyop that was started by Epstein, Bannon and others who were actually doing the kid diddling.
Every accusation is a confession.
