Bob Costas rips into Trump and his supporters: "He is by far the most disgraceful figure in modern presidential history... You have to be in the throes of some sort of toxic delusion in a toxic cult, to believe that Donald Trump has ever been in any sense, emotionally, psychologically, intellectually, or ethically fit to be president of the United States."

“We treat Moms for Liberty like the KKK. If you knew that a KKK meeting was happening in a church down the street from your house, everyone would be alarmed.” Flushed with hate. Mouths agape: Moms for Liberty is a far-right hate group that engages in anti-student inclusion activities while purporting to be a modern parental rights movement. Moms for Liberty are the notorious, right-wing zealots who terrorize the nation with their beliefs, their demands, and their dangerous ubiquity. Moms for Liberty made their national debut in America on the Rush Limbaugh Show. The GOP LOVES MFL: Of late, this extremist group has exploded in GOP popularity — propelled by opposition to public health regulations for COVID-19. They’re also notorious for opposing LGBTQ+ culture and racially inclusive school curriculum. MFL advocates book bans. Republicans are thrilled with all of the above, of course. This anti-student inclusion hate group has waged a wicked war against public schools, with watchdog members pouncing to seize hundreds of school board seats across the country. Moms for Liberty rail against teachers’ unions — condemning them as “terrorist organizations.” The Moms have called for the Department of Education to be crushed and eliminated. Moms for Liberty’s attacks on the LGBTQ+ community are plentiful and poisonous. Members of MFL even helped Gov. Ron DeSantis develop Florida’s “Don’t Say Gay” bill. Moms for Liberty publicly championed the bill. Moms for Liberty are fangirls of Adolf Hitler, quoting and saluting him on the cover of their June 2023 newsletter. Purportedly on a mission to protect children, Moms for Liberty pack and attack school board meetings all across America. During the COVID crisis, they decried science and demanded an end to masking in schools and vaccine mandates. MFL promote book bans, and denounce curricula infused with the critical race theory they deem so deeply offensive. The Moms stand opposed to inclusive curriculum: targeting critical race theory and social emotional learning with particular vitriol. TIES TO AN INSURRECTIONIST: Trump campaign megadonor Julie Jenkins Fancelli — heiress to the Publix grocery store chain — contributed $50,000 to a Moms for Liberty political action committee. Never forget, Fancelli also donated millions to finance and support the January 6 rallies which lead to the violent storming of the Capitol Complex. One chapter of Moms for Liberty took issue with a book by Ruby Bridges on the subject of school integration — detailing her experiences. The Moms also protested a book on Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., which they bashed as “Anti-American, Anti-White, and Anti-Mexican.” Rather than these books, which they deemed unacceptable, the Moms advocated for books with what they describe as a more positive historical perspective: books that focus on American “heroes” like Clarence Thomas. Moms for Liberty also recommends books by Birchers: supporters of the John Birch Society. Moms for Liberty is not an isolated anti-woke, anti-government hate group. The Moms are quite socially active and have strong connections to fellow anti-woke, anti-government hate groups: White nationalists, election deniers, and participants in the January 6th rallies and attacks are all among MFL’s regular contacts. In fact, Moms for Liberty connect with QAnon, Three Percenters, White nationalist Proud Boys, and more. Moms for Liberty have even been prominently pictured with various Proud Boys, flashing White power signs. Many more details below:

In case you missed it, Mitch McConnell said the quiet part out loud last night: “African-American voters are voting in just as high a percentage as Americans.” Make sure everyone sees this.

CNN and MSNBC have spent the past year trashing Biden and pretending Trump is making a big comeback, and their ratings are terrible. Turns out no one wants to watch that fear mongering crap. They should just honestly cover Biden's successes and the criminal cases against Trump.
