USA Far Right Watch

Absolutely determined to return to the middle ages:

I love how they said re lunch breaks that they would actually stay as "the free market will ensure workers are treated fairly".

cool story.. invisible hand strikes again.

Yeah, you can up sticks and rent somewhere else, at whim, right?

And you can withdraw your labour *just like that*.

Market's not free, and rentseekers do not really like open competition.

Enter Mr Doctorow, with some ideas.

What her handlers want?

More regarding that:

When GOP leaders tried pushing more Ukraine aid through the House, Moscow's loudest MAGA mouthpiece, Marjorie Taylor Greene, tossed an extremely suspect word salad demanding Kyiv roll over for Putin's oppressive ethnic policies before getting a cent.

As Politico reported, MTG's noxious amendment said: "No funding shall be made available to Ukraine unless restrictions on ethnic minorities', including Hungarians in Transcarpathia, right to use their native languages in schools are lifted."

From 2 Paragraphs:

'

Transcarpathian' is an English term describing Zakarpattia Oblast, a region in western Ukraine that borders Hungary. Hungarians living in Ukraine (12.1% of the the Transcarpathian population is Hungarian) have criticized Ukraine's 2017 education law which makes Ukrainian the required language of study in state schools.

That ultra-specific "Transcarpathia" reference raised red flags for political pundit "Jay in Kyiv", who blasted it as "such a nuanced Russian disinfo narrative that it could have only come directly from her Russian handlers."

Tom Nichols, staff writer for The Atlantic and a political scientist, replied to Jay in Kyiv by tweeting: "I've been pretty hard over on dissuading people from thinking that dumb and odious people like MTG are knowing Russian assets, and that they're mostly performance artists. But yes, someone on her staff (or some other Republican staff) had to cough up 'Transcarpathian.'"

It would be wrong to outright accuse Georgia's rottenest peach of being a traitorous Russophile parrot squawking Putin's lies. But as the saying goes, where there's smoke, there's probably a dumpster fire of anti-democratic Trump toadies working to undermine American values and sabotage its Ukrainian allies.

MTG is too evil, even for Murdoch's evil factory. Fox News with a headline "MTG is an Idiot". NY Post putting the boot in. It's galling because she is their monster, but I suppose it's an improvement.

Well I am guessing she won't have that job for long!

Lorenzo argued that the video posed a threat to her life because she was employed by the state, reportedly for Utah Attorney-General Sean Reyes. She later told police she had only touched the teen’s skirt.

The actual fuck!

According to police, Lorenzo said the teen had her skirt “hiked above her vagina and butt” and her pubic hair was exposed. When staff at Sakura Japanese Steakhouse took no action, Lorenzo allegedly pulled the teen’s skirt down, citing the presence of young children.

In a complaint to police, the alleged victim stated Lorenzo approached her from behind without warning, touched her buttocks, and pulled her skirt down, leaving her feeling “startled” and “violated”. Other witnesses also made reports to police.

The teen said she had been wearing underwear and her pubic hair was not exposed at any time.

Some RW idiot called Stone posts photo of what he claims is the Trump rally in New Jersey, to be honest I think it may be a fake post because it's so obviously not New Jersey that even MAGA morons couldn't be stupid enough to believe it!

It's not really a surprise that supreme court conservatives are like this, but there might have been some slim chance some of them would "pivot" to a more objective position. Instead it looks like they are getting worse.
