it's also just weirdly...not true

Global efforts to protect children against diseases including measles, polio and tuberculosis have stalled since 2010, leaving millions vulnerable to deadly infections.

Trump administration restores funds for HIV prevention following outcry

‘We are privileged’: liberal Afrikaners reject Trump’s ‘white genocide’ claims

Transgender campaigners call for European rights body to report on UK

In light of today's decision, I once again recommend to everyone this book on the Wong Kim Ark case that guaranteed birthright citizenship. Now more than ever it is crucial to know and communicate this history. kansaspress.ku.edu/9780700634217/

The fact that Biden pulled off CHIPS and IRA with a margin as thin as he had is staggering. I cannot think of a modern President who did more with less

“The extensive hunt for the alleged mole [in MI6], called Operation Wedlock, was run by…MI5, which deployed a team of up to 35 surveillance, planning and desk officers [and] lasted in one form or another for up to 20 years” www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Wait is this a slick investment grindset tiktoker coming out against ICE? Bruh what the fuck is this thermostatic reaction

Of course that's what this was, rage-baiting so he can talk at the Nazi bar about how mean everyone is here We don't feed trolls. They hunger for *any* attention, so we let them fucking starve.

I know people mock Bush and McCain’s gestures towards the Muslim community as empty words, seeing all the awful stuff they actually did… But, man, that fake civility was important, even if it was kinda fake, because it still was a signal to normie voters that this wasn’t okay. And we don’t have it.

Every liberal SCOTUS dissent kinda feels like this

I still think a fascinating dynamics in Congress is that frontline republicans are the party's most dutiful soldiers, while frontline democrats are the party's most irascible malcontents

The ADL fired 22 people, all who worked on issues like civil rights for other communities. This is part of larger changes: 1. Ending its anti-bias training, which focused on other forms of bigotry. 2. Removing 134 pages from the site that educated on issues like trans identity & white privilege

100% agree. The hatred and blatant racism displayed by the #Trump administration and sitting members of #Congress are a direct insult to Muslim Americans and Muslims around the world.

My statement on the vile rhetoric being spread about Zohran Mamdani:

Fundamental issue in American politics right now is that policymaking has been in a backed up feedback loop of promising more and more to compensate for the fact that Congress cannot reasonably pass normal legislation anymore

a thing that i think is hard for people to extrapolate about things in 2021 is Joe Biden won a decisive victory but was only elected a narrow margin and then had to govern with a functional minority government

For months, Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett has faced fierce criticism from conservatives over some of her decisions in cases involving President Donald Trump.

DHS claims Haiti is “safe enough” to end TPS, but the State Dept warns Americans not to travel due to kidnappings and crime. The Trump Admin is actively lying to justify ending TPS amid a deadly humanitarian crisis. This is a deliberate act of cruelty. www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

A new Utah law, inspired by the architects of Project 2025, will phase out the state's practice of sending a mail ballot to all registered voters. boltsmag.org/utah-le...

EXCLUSIVE: Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil joins The Weekend: Primetime alongside his wife Dr. Noor Abdalla in an exclusive interview following his release from immigration detention. Watch the full interview on The Weekend: Primetime, Saturday at 6 p.m. ET on MSNBC.

i think a vast majority of democrats are basically good, with a significant portion of them being really indecisive cowards until faced with the obvious, but there are a lot of stinkers

I was adopted via closed adoption, born in North Carolina. It was closed so I have no knowledge of or access to my biological mother’s details. It also means my biological mother isn’t on my birth certificate. So if birthright citizenship becomes a patchwork right, what’s someone like me to do?

This is actually the Alaska Speaker and Senate Leader. Massive massive potential for backlash in the state

It's interesting that Trump isn't going to Minnesota to pay his respects to the slain lawmakers. Biden is there sort of fulfilling the presidential role. I imagine that a Bush or Romney or McCain would have gone and had some words of respect and condolences, but Trump just isn't capable enough.

It’s every parent’s nightmare, isn’t it? you check your child’s bulletproof backpack and find a picture book about gay penguins

Obama got eaten alive for saying small town voters were bitter and clinging to their guns and religion, but he was and still is completely right.

Melissa and Mark Hortman’s beloved golden retriever, Gilbert, was the first dog in Minnesota history to lie in state. His ashes sat in an urn between the Hortmans in the Capitol rotunda.

the catholic church choosing to pick a side is going to continue to be one of the more interesting developments of this administration

somehow 'finances' is killing me here because while Jesus talks plenty about money, it's not like he was struggling to make rent in the big city.

The attacks against Zohran Mamdani are Islamophobic & disgusting. These people are cowards, too afraid to debate Mr. Mamdani on the facts, so they resort to this kind of vile & depraved rhetoric. Debate the man on his ideas or sit this one out.

Bypassing the whole issue of whether Joe Biden is a good and decent man, this kind of thing is the thing the current president would normally be expected to do. Trump didn't even call the state's governor, and the media just doesn't care!

We were so fortunate to have such a good and decent man as our president.

By a vote of 47-53, the Senate did not agree to the motion to discharge from Foreign Relations Committee S.J.Res.59, Kaine War Powers Resolution on Iran. Senator Paul voted Yes and Senator Fetterman voted No. This is the last vote of the day.

no amount of free money is going to get people to have children in a stagnant society of rampant corruption and dwindling opportunity

NEW: At least two former Jan. 6 prosecutors were fired on Friday as fallout of Donald Trump's mass pardon of Capitol rioters continues to linger over the FBI and DOJ. www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

Seems like Karl is thriving under the trump regime, at least.
