    The thing that annoyed me the most about this shit was the false claim that physical fitness standards were lowered to accommodate women in combat roles. They weren’t. They remained high. Women in combat roles have to be able to do what the men did.

    The GOP is now claiming that women would be allowed in combat roles if they were held to the same standard as men. That’s always been the case.

    Fuck these assholes. They gin up fake ass stories to fire up TV audiences and voters.

    EVISCERATES, DECAPITATES, DEFENESTRATES, SLAMS……snore. Wake me up when there’s actual opposition to the slide into authoritarianism. We’re totally boned until we organize and push back against oligarchs.

      Be the change you want to see. Let’s go to his inauguration and lower the flags back to half-mast.
