And she’s wearing a Florida shirt... talk about truth in advertising.

Uh, yeah, I used to work at Children’s National Medical Center in DC: the abused kids dropped off there experienced honest to god human rights violations.

Yeah, that’s kind of one of the ways that therapy is so effective: it’s an intense, but safe and structured, setting to work through past traumas. And humans learn and grow through challenges, so it HAS to be hard (not initially... the initially phases are part of a building of trust, which is why therapy also takes…

Hope that kid gets access to some good therapy resources and has supportive aunties and uncles in her life, because this is the kind of early trauma that precipitates chronic suicidality and certain personality disorders.

Kyle Rittenhouse would best serve society by being made an example of: he murdered people, he needs to be locked up for life, without parole.

That foaming mob was beating up cops, set a bomb next to the RNC, and called for Pence’s head in a noose: no one, not nobody, was safe.

Or that he could spam every phone in America with an emergency announcement.

Yeah, & her dad also organized a visible push-back from all living defense secretaries telling Trump (& the Pentagon) that it would be inappropriate to use the military (officially) to support a coup. What a freaking world we live in!
