Read up on RFK Jr's plans -- he really wants to ban all vaccines. And the guy who works for him is open about it.

If there were ever a time to grow a pair, that time is now. SHUT IT DOWN! Republican House repeatedly funds "continuing resolutions" to support Left-Biden agenda (see flashback vid below). They are about to do it again--funding Biden invasion while, for example, doing nothing about non-citizen voting reform, etc. Call your reps NOW --… pic.twitter.com/dUlXJmC8K2 — Tom Fitton (@TomFitton) December 16, 2024

Toxic, Violent Bluesky (and NBC) Go After Jesse Singal We used to hear nonstop from corporate news journalists that social media was a danger. Sure it was a danger to their revenue, but it was a bigger threat to their control of the narrative and they were hysterical about that. But rather than reform and pursue honest information dissemination, they instead demanded government control of toxic, extremist breeding grounds like Twitter. Why do we take you on this stroll down memory lane? Because there is a toxic, extremist new website in town but there's nothing but crickets coming from the Very Concerned establishment. This is likely because this is their brand of toxic extremism. Meet Bluesky, a place where a perxon of no particular gender can be safe from the literal violence of non-affirmation. Quick bans are issued to harmful accounts like the Babylon Bee and block lists are as long as CVS register tape. Wishes and promises of death on billionaires, MAGAs and conservatives are not, however, considered equal to the real crime of misgendering. All this is preamble to the drama happening to Jesse Singal, a very smart, very honest liberal journalist who happens to have committed the sin of being gender critical. Singal, would, no doubt, not be thrilled being associated with a partisan site like Twitchy, but we do salute his principled stances and thorough research. Jesse Singal is on Bluesky and, well, a lot of people seem upset about it, to put it mildly. CONT... There's a culture of just total impunity over there when it comes to violence. On Twitter, as far as I can tell, it's rare for people to post violent threats or musings under names identified with their IRL identities. Over there, they know they can do so without any risk. pic.twitter.com/3xRWdAo3Kl — Jesse Singal (@jessesingal) December 15, 2024 2/ All the death threats are couched in the idea that I pose an imminent threat to the community. That's the line: I'm putting users there at risk. No one can explain how. NBC is at work on an article with that angle, based on the request for comment they sent me. — Jesse Singal (@jessesingal) December 15, 2024 3/ Sounds painful pic.twitter.com/1z6mGTngTK — Jesse Singal (@jessesingal) December 15, 2024
