What is it about the Villages?
My cousin was there visiting her BF’s sister a few months ago, and I asked her how it was. “It was weird for me, but you? Your head would have exploded.”

New from me: @NBCNews confirms the manifesto written in the name of the Buffalo shooter was posted Thursday night.

So sick of the right wing fantasies
Ivan Ilyin imagined “a Russian Christian fascism.” Timothy Snyder argues that Ilyin is Putin’s muse. Ilyin, wote Snyder, “made of lawlessness a virtue so pure as to be invisible." No wonder Putin has fans on the American right. https://t.co/HRQDduU9qz @digby56

Robert LaMay, the anti-vaccine state trooper who recently died of COVID, was praised as "a celebrity" by Fox's Laura Ingraham on 10/19/21. She also said she "hoped" they'd awoken "a sleeping giant."

He set up a Gofundme after he lost his job. It's still active. "Final update: Any donations will be forwarded to the LaMay family as Robert has passed away. Prayers for his wife and kids."
