At the request of Meteor Blades, I am taking a break from my pro-Biden screeds, to write about Project 2025 and its enabling SCOTUS rulings, because this “trinity of scat” is a threat to everything— and I mean everything we hold dear: Social Security, Union Rights, hell the fucking entire Biosphere will be under threat… if we let these shit-birds get back into office...
