Biden’s surprise brings Elton John to tears at White House

Former President Donald Trump is again signaling an affinity with believers of the QAnon conspiracies — on Thursday evening he reposted a video originally shared by a QAnon follower containing catch phrases and that integrated Trump into imagery affiliated with the conspiracy movement.
The video includes edited images of Trump that made it appear as if he is holding a playing card with a "Q" on it and holding an American flag encircled by the letter Q. There's also a slide with the QAnon slogan "WWG1WGA," an acronym for "where we go one, we go all," and a man wearing Trump's signature red tie with a "Q" pin on his lapel.
The former president is central to QAnon and its ideology, which envisions him as a savior. The conspiracy theory includes the unfounded belief that a cabal of famous Democratic politicians and liberal elites run a child sex trafficking ring, and that Trump will arrange for mass arrests and military tribunals of corrupt politicians, among other outlandish ideas. The FBI has warned that conspiracy theories like QAnon pose a growing domestic terrorism threat.
Republican gubernatorial nominee Tudor Dixon’s repeated comments mocking the foiled plot to kidnap and assassinate Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer have drawn widespread condemnation.
On Friday morning, the Republican appeared at a pro-Dixon superPAC event in Troy with former Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway and criticized Whitmer’s business record as governor. Standing in front of a sign that said, “Forging A Family Friendly Michigan,” Dixon then unexpectedly brought up the 2020 militia-tied plot against Whitmer — in which multiple people have been convicted — as an apparent punchline.
“The sad thing is that Gretchen will tie your hands, put a gun to your head and ask if you’re ready to talk,” said Dixon, a Muskegon County former right-wing commentator. “For someone so worried about being kidnapped, Gretchen Whitmer sure is good at taking business hostage and holding it for ransom.”
Four men have been convicted in the 2020 domestic terrorism plot that sought to kidnap Whitmer from her summer residence in retaliation for her efforts to curb the spread of COVID-19.
I literally do not care what the Bible says about any political issue. I am not Christian. Christian scripture should have zero effect on my life or my personal freedoms.
The fact that I did not mention abortion anywhere in this post, yet the replies and reblogs are filled with Christians trying to “well actually” me and/or resorting to anti-choice insults is… telling, to say the least.
So you agree? Current US laws banning abortion are based on the religious convictions of a select few?
Nancy Davis made national headlines this summer after she was denied an abortion at Woman’s Hospital in Baton Rouge — despite carrying a fetus with no brain or skull that would not survive birth.
In early September, Davis, a mother of three, finally had her procedure at a Manhattan Planned Parenthood clinic. Public health reporter Rosemary Westwood recently spoke with Davis and her attorney, Ben Crump, about what Davis has been through, and why she’s sharing her story.

"how do i know a woman wants me to talk to her in the grocery store" are you an elderly woman with valuable information about cooking, cleaning, or saving money? if you answered no, then women do not want to talk to you in the grocery store.
These tags needed to be shared with the class.
If you're old enough to remember this- our parents taught us at a young age that this was fake news and people that believed it were idiots. Now we have Fox News to take the place of the tabloids.

y'all are worried about a surveillance state all while filming strangers in public for clicks and clout... baby you ARE the surveillance state!
actually genuinely if you are going to talk about serious topics you need to say the words for the thing you're talking about
i've seen people talking about abuse and rape spend the whole post saying "@.bus3" and "rpe". People will spell suicide like su1c1de, or just say "unalive" and "aliven't". pedophile is now p*d*ph*le. I get that you have to do that on tiktok, but that's because tiktok takes things down.
If you're going to discuss serious topics on tumblr, please, just spell out what you're saying. Even aside from being terrible for screen readers, it's harder, slower, and incredibly distracting to read a mile-long post about mental health & depression that's desperately trying to avoid the word "suicide". Meanwhile, people who have "suicide" as a filtered word on tumblr will see the post, because when you talk about suicide but say su1c1de or sewerslide or unalived, anyone who has filtered "suicide" because it's a triggering topic to them will now see the post. It is IMPORTANT to use the actual word in your TW tags and in your post. Seriously.
I want someone to make one of these new sterile teen gay romance shows on Netflix but halfway through they pull a Doki Doki Literature Club and it turns into a fucked up fourth wall breaking psychological thriller that deconstructs the heteronormative and middle class ideals of the genre
If you dont like horror then watch the normal cutesy netflix gay shows ???
