Before we get into what happened yesterday, I just want to comment on this tweet:

The guardrails failed because the founding fathers didn’t anticipate one political party would be so partisan that they’d completely abdicate their duty to the people in service of one politician and their cult followers. It was never built to withstand this level of sycophancy

I have said for years that the Founding Fathers saw Trump coming, and had solutions for him.
What they never accounted for was an entire political party turning on their oath to the Constitution.
THAT is what they didn’t see coming.
So…
Back to yesterday…

When Jared came out and said…
GAZA = BEACHFRONT CONDOS…
THAT was them telling you what their intentions were. How could it not be obvious?
That the leftists spent all their time with their nonsense and no nuance with regards to this issue.
Congratulations. You played yourselves and the Palestinian people.
Just horrific what’s about to play out.
And, THIS

The blanket pardons and commutations for the most violent offenders, 600 of whom assaulted police officers, leading to horrific injuries and deaths, is chilling. Even more chilling: no police unions condemning it, no Republicans in Congress who were there on J6 saying anything.

Trump has suspended refugee admissions programs.As a result: Nearly 1,660 Afghans cleared by the U.S. government to resettle in the U.S. — including family members of active-duty U.S. military personnel — are having their flights canceled.
This includes unaccompanied minors

WHY did they not get those people here before January 20th? Makes no damn sense. They have known since November 6th, that they should be getting those people here before January 20th.
Ridiculous.

Big problem: The right wing propaganda network is much bigger and more powerful than in 2017. That and other factors will make it harder to build a public backlash against Trump’s immigration crackdown.

🚨 BREAKING: It’s official—Trump just signed an executive order pulling the U.S. out of the World Health Organization. No more waiting, no more threats—he actually did it.
The move kicks off a one-year countdown before the U.S. fully exits, but the WHO and global leaders are already scrambling, warning that this decision could wreck international health efforts and put national security at risk.
Trump says it’s about cutting ties with “global mismanagement,” but critics argue it’s just another isolationist move that could leave the U.S. vulnerable when the next global health crisis hits.
Buckle up—this one’s going to have ripple effects far beyond D.C.

so these are the instances in which autism is presented in social media:
someone white says something objectively observed as racist or otherwise discriminatory, and in their own self-defense *we only now discover* their self-diagnosis of “autism”
this isn’t fair to autistics
