Democrats have never treated the courts as seriously as conservatives and that's why we are where we are. They should be doing everything possible to gum up the works. They are not. So fuck 'em.

“.. ‘Our history and achievements are being belittled .. and it is intentional. But I believe that intent can work both ways. .. We wanted to show him on #Juneteenth what it looks like when people are intentional about showing our history.’” @opinion.bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

This has to do numbers on recruitment

Always a pleasure and always learn something new.

In 2022, inspectors described a “cascade of failure” at one foreign factory. The FDA barred it from shipping drugs to the U.S. — then excused more than 20 drugs from the ban, despite risks to consumers.

Cuomo sexually harrassed 13 women and retaliated when they complained.

The funny thing about this apnews.com/article/trum...

All of this, every bit of it, traces back to the failure of the U.S. government to invest in public education for decades and expecting overworked and underpaid educators to make up the difference.

“DEI” wth a hard R

Acknowledging the reality! Amen.

“.. ‘They did not show any warrant. They did not provide any reason to why they were there. It seemed to me that they were just like, Hey, you look brown, you look Mexican enough that maybe you’re undocumented.’” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/06/15/u...

the destruction of chattel slavery is one of the great accomplishments in our nation's history and the reason conservatives hate celebrating it is because doing so legitimizes the black counter-narrative of the united states

Very important 🧵!!!!!

Don’s right. Trumpism not just permits, but demands, overt hostility to a wide array of American values, institutions, culture, and people. Trumpism hates much more of America than it loves.

How it started. How it’s going.

In order to maintain ideological diversity, I make sure that 50% of my organization's hires are Trump supporters, even though only 2% of my applicants are Trump supporters. Here's why DEI at universities must be banned.

I can’t even with Ohio Republicans right now and their Prenatal whatevertheshit bill. Voters said what they said when they voted for the repro freedom amendment, ding dongs.

I made this video six months ago. It's very relevant today #skrmetti

Sotomayor points out the similarities between the Skrmetti ruling allowing discrimination against transgender people's medical care to Virginia's argument for its interracial marriage ban in Loving.

Blue no matter who, they said.

SLC Tribune - The Colorado county sheriff's office whose deputy pulled over a student during a traffic stop — and let her go with a warning — has discovered its info was secretly shared with ICE, leading to the student's federal detainment just minutes later. https://www.sltrib.com/news/education/2

Mr. Antiwar President has us inches away from a Civil War at home and a nuclear war abroad in defense of an ally that is starting random hot regional wars to detract from its ongoing genocide. I’m sure all of this will just naturally cool off.

Hortman was a catholic who ensured children got fed and her killer was in a psycho church that demanded violent prayer and guess which one is getting the"Christian" coverage

In writing, Trump's judicial nominees have all signaled their support for his election denier conspiracy theories, and their willingness to end birthright citizenship. But Senate Democrats didn't challenge the nominees on these answers when they had the chance. Most of them didn't even show up.

administration should just put up a “no niggers” sign and save themselves the trouble of writing out each country

Why has corrupt businessman Donald Trump somehow convinced America's working class that he's their candidate? We asked two of the past three Democratic presidential nominees attending a billionaire's wedding in the Hamptons on the day of nationwide protests.

Writing about Adriana Smith with such callousness and disregard while ignoring the obvious connection to breeding slavery sounds about white.

Notice how wealth class media will spend years normalizing authoritarians, giving them the benefit of the doubt, and if someone who is even considered remotely leftist and wants to help people gains momentum they'll change every rule, twist history, and attack them relentlessly.

NPR doesn’t mention Trumps’s insane Truth Social rant last night, in which he announced upcoming assaults on more U.S. cities so agriculture and hospitality sectors in red states can continue to exploit undocumented immigrant labor. Sane-washing.

Barrio Obrero, the Dominican heart of Puerto Rico, is torn apart by ICE raids: ‘It’s a city under siege’ President Donald Trump’s policies are spreading terror in a neighborhood of the U.S. territory considered the epicenter of the island’s immigrant community english.elpais.com/usa/2025-06-...

Opinion | A deranged Republican shot two lawmakers and their spouses over the weekend. But my colleague who I assume is a Democrat wrote the word "womxn" in a Slack thread. I have never felt more politically homeless.

Political violence in this country is overwhelmingly a right wing phenomenon. Much is expressed in religious, even messianic forms. The media has collectively failed to cover this for a long time..as well as failing to cover the permission space created by mainstream RW figures from DJT on down.

Nobody is rioting. Nobody is breaking any laws. These are cops in my city of Las Vegas just assaulting and arresting anyone on Fremont Street who looks at them. This is fascism.

The Minnesota assassin appears to be a hate-filled right winger. So can we stop walking on eggshells about MAGA's legitimization of political violence? Yes, Republicans have also been the target of inexcusable violence, but this isn't a "both sides" issue. 1/ A🧵on the danger.

It is not. All this does is create opportunities for the Paydari Front, who are far more extreme & hardline. 1/

One of several reasons I have trouble approaching these trans political issues with much “nuance” is because once you even briefly ignore any of the “debates” around minors’ healthcare, the reality is shockingly simple which is they, mostly the entirety of the GOP, is coming after these families…

Reporters say that the Minnesota assassin is a Donald Trump supporter and a fierce opponent of reproductive rights. Mike Lee says he is a Marxist. For busy social media users, it can be hard to know who to trust.

(1/X) I wanted to do a quick thing about something I've noticed a lot here. Ostensibly anti-Trump centrists gloating over how Trump is screwing liberal/left institutions for being too extremist, even as they say they don't approve of what Trump is doing...

AI was trained on my books (without my permission and against my will) so this annoys me. I never use AI. Not for research, not for images, not for writing. AI used me.

This is literally "DEI is why we don't have vaccines any more."

We want healthy local food in public schools. Here’s why we have killed all the farm-to-cafeteria programs and bankrupted local farmers. by RFK Jr and Linda McMahon
