BREAKING: A federal judge reversed National Institutes of Health's terminations of hundreds of critical research grants that were canceled because of their alleged connection to disfavored topics, including diversity, equity, inclusion, and gender identity. This is a major win for public health.

It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence. They are in charge.

CNN’s Jason Carroll was zip-tied and escorted away—for reporting the news. But they claimed he wasn’t under arrest? Why are they shooting rubber bullets at and silencing journalists? We still have a First Amendment.

not the main issue here but i'd really appreciate it if democratic politicians spoke out in support of big-city life and culture with the same energy and reverence that all politicians have for small towns los angeles is "real america" and so are all the other big cities the president hates

These are crimes. They're committing crimes. And when people understandably protest the fact that they're committing crimes, they're shooting flashbangs at them.

I’m in a public library. Numerous adults are helping kids on summer break. Some kids look brilliant & are working on things that look complex. Other kids seem like they need more help. A woman with a laptop is helping a struggling patron apply for benefits. Libraries rock!!!📚 #SupportLibraries

I think we’ve reached a boiling point when it comes to ICE. Today in Minneapolis, a militarized task force raided the beloved Lake Street taqueria, Las Cuatro Milpas—and the community was not having it. Agents from ICE, the DEA, FBI, ATF, IRS and HHS rolled up looking like they were ready for war.

1/2 Today in Minneapolis, ICE/FBI raided a taco restaurant, yes, you read that correctly, a taco restaurant, dressed in full battle gear—long guns, body armor, the whole damn militarized show. Do they think they’re in a war zone? This is about instilling terror, rooted in racism. It won’t work.

Something Ta-Nahesi Coates said on Israel/Palestine that's stuck with me is people often obscure the issue and its stakes by going on and on about how complicated it is, when, actually, it isn't. You only have to go through these pathetic contortions at length to justify a bad perspective.

It's often overlooked by both policymakers and the news that children can be homeless too but in fact! Child homelessness is real and does exist and is sharply increasing YoY and the only possible thing that can solve this is housing for all with no strings attached

Ngl, this is why I appreciate DDOT even more. They’ve recently taken community input and prioritize safety. They took the four lane feeder road that runs perpendicular to our block, took a lane out, made the middle lane turn only, and put up barriers for cyclists. Never thought I would see it.

i will say again that given the trajectory of the white house so far, strident opposition a la 2017 would have absolutely been the most prudent and effective decision and the absence of that opposition in the first two months made things demonstrably worse.

the most appalling part of this political era is the physical harm they are inflicting on innocent people but secondary to that i find the constant smug lectures from this country's biggest collection of hypocrites, scammers, perverts, pedophiles, and overall bozos very distasteful
