TikToker @lindawtafmac, who lives in Arkansas, offered a viral warning for voters in red states as people's rights continue to be taken away.

TikToker @lindawtafmac, who lives in Arkansas, offered an NSFW warning for voters in red states as people's rights continue to be taken away.

LindaMac explained why she's so fed up with red-state voters:


"So here's the thing now in Arkansas and much of the South, I'm afraid, and probably every red state in the country. If you are anything other than a white, straight man, your life is in danger."
"Your rights are already being taken away. Wake up, people! Vote, for crying out loud. Register, vote, follow what's going on, pay attention."
"I don't have much longer to live in this world but a lot of you do. For crying out loud, protect yourself, protect your children."
"Get involved! Register, vote, let your voice be heard."

She sighed, then her rant escalated quickly:

"If I could reach through this [screen] and grab you by the throat and tell you how important this is. ... Quite frankly, I marched for all this s**t back in the '60s and now I have to do it again?"
"What the f**k is wrong with you?"

You can hear what she said in the video below.

Many concurred with her message.


In Arkansas, where @lindawtafmac lives, Republican Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders—the former White House Press Secretary to former President Donald Trump—has faced accusations of not having "much interest in governing Arkansas."

Sanders recently justified banning gender-neutral IDs in the state, mirroring attacks Republicans have launched against transgender rights. She also signed an anti-trans bathroom bill and legislation aimed at facilitating malpractice suits against doctors who provide gender-affirming care.

Since taking office in January 2023, Sanders has further entrenched herself with the far-right, most notably by launching an aggressive campaign against Arkansas schools and the LGBTQ+ community within them. One of her appointments, Jacob Oliva, known for implementing Florida's "Don't Say Gay" law, now leads the Arkansas Education Department.

Sanders wasted no time in signing a law that prohibits transgender teachers and students from using bathrooms and locker rooms that align with their gender identities.

Additionally, she approved a comprehensive 145-page education overhaul that provides teachers with a modest pay increase of $2000 per year but simultaneously muzzles their ability to discuss topics related to gender identity or sexual orientation.

Sanders also issued an executive order targeting "indoctrination" by forbidding teachers from discussing critical race theory—a form of legal and academic scholarship Republicans have falsely alleged is being taught to young children—in classrooms.

Dem Senator Fires Back At Elon Musk After Musk Called Him 'A Traitor' For Visiting Ukraine

After billionaire Elon Musk called Arizona Democratic Senator Mark Kelly "a traitor" for visiting Ukraine amid the country's ongoing war with Russia, Kelly perfectly shamed him for the attack.

Kelly, a former U.S. Navy combat pilot and astronaut, made his third visit to Ukraine since 2023, where he visited a military hospital and met with Red Cross staff. During his visit, he spoke with wounded service members and spent time with pilots who have flown combat missions defending against Russian air attacks.

During Trump’s speech on Tuesday, March 4, Green stood and passionately denounced potential Republican cuts to Medicaid, dramatically pointing his cane at the president. When asked to sit, the 77-year-old lawmaker refused and was ultimately escorted out of the chamber.

JD Vance Claims Pro-Ukraine Protesters 'Shouted' At His 3-Year-Old—But Video Shows Otherwise

Vice President J.D. Vance was criticized after he claimed in a post on X that a group of "Slava Ukraini" protesters shouted at him while he was out for a walk with his 3-year-old daughter, only for the backlash to intensify when video taken by the protesters seemed to contradict his story.

Though Vance described the dialogue as a mostly respectful conversation, his post betrayed his anger at something that didn't happen at all.

Teachers Describe The One Student They'll Never Forget

While underpaid and challenging, teaching can be one of the most deeply rewarding professions in the world, not just because of the opportunity to teach others what we know, but because of what we might be able to teach them that extends beyond the classroom.

What many teachers often don't share about their journeys through the profession are those students who leave behind a particularly special mark. Until today.
