Former US Ambassador to Ukraine Bridget Brink—who resigned after Trump’s disgraceful Oval Office ambush of Volodymyr Zelensky—announced that she raised more than $250,000 in the first 24 hours of her campaign for Congress. The race will be in Michigan’s 7th Congressional District.

THE WINNER OF THE TAYLOR SWIFT (album) BRACKET BATTLE 💚🦋✨ ISSSSS OUR SONG thank you so so much for playing, i love you 🫶✨💚🤠 final results: our song - 25 should’ve said no - 23

BREAKING: In a unanimous decision, a federal court of appeals has ruled that Louisiana's law requiring the Ten Commandments to be displayed in all public school classrooms is unconstitutional. We’ll keep saying it: Public schools are not Sunday schools.

this is another one of those pieces of Covid info that doesn’t even need to be a *fraction* as bad as it sounds here to justify doing more about it than we are long covid could be the number five chronic illness in children and we should still be doing more to mitigate it than nothing

You can’t do it without a vote by Congress. That’s what the highest law of the land says. Clear as day.

am I just irredeemably broken or did anyone else find the price tag of Cuomo’s integrity here shockingly low if you did a favor for Weinstein at the literal height of the Fuck Weinstein era for the low low price of $25,000 I sort of feel like you would have done it for free

Similes, metaphors and analogies are the worst things that ever happened to punk rock

How do you kidnap and deport millions of people? How do you meet a quota of 3,000 apprehensions a day? Racial profiling and indiscriminate abductions. Nobody is safe: #MAGAKidnappers

The MARINES don’t BELONG in LA..🏝️🏄‍♀️

Senate Dems flipped the script at the GOP’s "Biden is senile" hearing. Durbin played a Trump brain-fog blooper reel, then they all peaced out. Theatrics? Yes. Necessary? Also yes.

Love how this administration talks about LA like it's fucking Dresden in 1945. Let me go instead, you babies. I've been craving a jalapeno egg burrito from the Tacos Por Favor on Olympic for like six months now.

I read a biography of Lincoln once, and early in his life he was testing his anti-slavery beliefs by reading the best pro-slavery arguments and afterwards he wrote down "None of these people arguing about how great slavery is for the slaves seems to want to be a slave themselves."

ICE declares war on baseball, presumably apple pie next

Here is the LAPD telling ICE to GTFO of Dodger Stadium. The only reason they came was to start a riot. What they got was the boot. More of this, California.

NEW: The child sex abuse material trade on X is spiraling out of control… and a key child safety partner just cut X off after they say to company stopped paying them www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-ne...

It's easy to forget now but we had decades of steady advancement on trans rights. The 2016 bathroom bills invited huge backlash! It was only after the media constructed sports and youth medications as 'debates' that opposition moved from the far right to the polite center.

Feels apropos that today is when I finally got to this new album from @flummoxband.bsky.social - if you're looking for leftist and very queer (specifically trans) rage out of the south, this will be right up your alley. My short review of 'Southern Progress' - enjoy! youtube.com/shorts/yuzE5...

I am so completely against being involved in any way in Iran. What a stupid timeline. Can we just not.

For those unconditionally cheering the attacks on Iran, remember that our early strikes in Afghanistan and Iraq were “successful”. But we ended up getting dragged into costly wars that created more terrorists than we killed. The American people haven’t forgotten that.

trans people will always exist (laudatory) trans people will always exist (threatening) trans people will always exist (factual)

⚠️ LGBTQ+ hotlines for anyone in need of support

Yes, the Olympics and the World Cup have been held in authoritarian countries before… but a key distinction is that the leaders of those countries weren’t bragging a lot about how horny they were to arrest foreigners for arbitrary reasons *at the event itself*.

I wish I would remember to text people at reasonable hours.
