at lake and bloomington where ICE were seen. large group of angry people

you guys are being very cynical about this but the real explanation is that bears and Bigfoot are buddies. They like to hang out and do stuff together

The FBI is now going after trans people and their healthcare. Today it's gender affirming care, tomorrow abortion. This is the authoritarian playbook on display.

Why aren’t Dems on everything talking about the Joni Ernst “you can die” bill?

Please listen to the UN General Secretary.

if you care about trans people, do not watch the new jk rowling show. don’t even hate watch it or you will be funding this new intentionally transphobic organization. we cannot allow hateful people take away more of our rights

Palestinians gunned down while trying to reach food aid site in Gaza, hospital says

Secret police seems an apt label for law enforcement that refuses to identity itself

I can’t believe the media covered up the fact that a clear mental incompetent was running the government while out of his mind on drugs, despite it being widely known in DC circles, to preserve their access to the White House. There should be huge recriminations for this.

An epidemiologist at Columbia had to issue a statement saying the research article RFK Jr. cited with her name is FAKE. It’s not real. The paper itself doesn’t EXIST. Yall this is fascism. FAKE scientific articles used by the government to influence policy is FASCISM. This is horrifying.

Not Ducktavious! Lol. This is so wholesome.

In San Antonio today, plainclothes ICE officers (not masked this time) arrested, handcuffed, and zip-tied a family of five (yes, ALL of them, including the little children) coming out of their immigration court hearing — which ICE had just had dismissed. www.mysanantonio.com/news/local/a...

The first screening of Ryan Coogler’s ‘Sinners’ in Clarksdale, Mississippi. This is the first time a lot of people in Clarksdale have been abled to watch the film for the first time. Ryan Coogler, Zinzi Evans, and Miles Caton were all in attendance. 📸: @/Carmen_A_Jude (on X)

US doctor, Feroze Sidhwa, with horrific testimony at the UN on the children of Gaza: “I wonder if any member of this Council has met a 5 year old who no longer wants to live. What astonishes me is not that some children in Gaza have lost the will to live, but that any still cling to hope.”

In plain sight:

Customs and Border Protection has swabbed the DNA of migrant children as young as 4, whose genetic data is uploaded to an FBI-run database that can track them if they commit crimes in the future. www.wired.com/story/cbp-dn...

When Americans raised concerns about RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine views, he said he was "not gonna take away vaccines from anybody." But now he's taking them away from millions of mommas and babies. Vaccine recommendations should be based on science, not RFK Jr.'s political agenda.

Bindi Ray is Maryland's youngest competitor in this year's Scripps National Spelling Bee. Here's a behind-the-scenes look of photographer Jessica Gallagher capturing a portrait of Ray that would pop. STORY: buff.ly/q3hGbJP

it's unfathomably messed up that the president of the United States is using the power of his office to go after a single high school kid.

You know, things definitely look bad right now but this has fully convinced me there’s no way these fucking dweeb losers are going to win long-term.

The German university system was possibly the greatest in the world before the rise of the Nazis. It's been almost a hundred years, yet the German universities have never recovered.

A long long time ago, in a far away galaxy... the US used to tax the rich

‘‘The obstruction of humanitarian aid is a direct violation of UN security council resolution 2720, which calls for the unimpeded delivery of humanitarian aid to civilians.’’

Around the world — from Rutgers University, to Cambridge University in the U.K. to University of Doha for Science and Technology in Qatar — students have chanted “Free Palestine” or held Palestinian flags while crossing the graduation stage, sometimes to threats of arrest. Read more here ⤵️

This provision is seriously diabolical. “Proposal to limit courts' contempt power, part of spending bill, is 'terrible idea,' Chemerinsky says” 5/21/25 www.abajournal.com/news/article...

The attack on Harvard and its students started with an attack on Harvard's first Black president, launched by a white supremacist, with assistance from major Democratic donors, the New York Times, and the Washington Post.

Eight sitting members of Congress have died in office since November 2022. Every single one was a Democrat.

Since August 2023, at least 31 gender- and sexuality-based resource centers have shuttered across 23 college campuses, according to data collected by the Chronicle of Higher Education and additional research by Teen Vogue. www.teenvogue.com/story/colleg...

This passed 215-214. We're going to lose our healthcare because 3 senior Dems have died this year. We lost Roe because Ginsburg didn't retire. We lost the election because Joe ran for reelection. Our country is being destroyed because geriatric Dems can't retire and let go of power.

Update: This happened last night—Senate Republicans went nuclear, overruling the parliamentarian and blowing up the filibuster to repeal California's vehicle emissions standards. Many Republicans will likely cite this precedent as reason to bypass the filibuster to pass the reconciliation bill too.

Kind of framing I’ve been begging democrats to use on taxes for decades. Name the people who stand to benefit not just faceless billionaires

This is absolutely terrible news. With the shifting regulatory climate (i.e., antivax ratfuckery), Moderna has withdrawn their application for their eagerly anticipated COVID-flu combo vaccine. This vaccine offered better protection than getting each shot separately. h/t @merz.bsky.social

i think it should be a bigger story that the president held a meeting with a foreign head of state where he ranted about the most gutter white supremacist propaganda you can find on the internet

I sincerely hope that these examples shine a greater light on the utter depravity of how US jails and prisons operate OVERALL. Because I've traveled miles to see incarcerated people and been REFUSED for no reason AT ALL. This happens A LOT.

!!!! NEW: Canada is summoning Israel's ambassador after the IDF shot at four Canadian diplomatic officials in Ramallah earlier today.

It’s just mindblowing and infuriating that we still don’t have any actual contempt orders against this administration. Judges, you have to enforce your orders.

A sitting cabinet member being unable to define the bedrock principle of Anglo-American law for nearly a millennium will get .00001% of the coverage devoted to Hillary Clinton’s email server or Joe Biden’s mental capacity

Trump supporters & antivaxxers were in the hospitals on their death beds BEGGING to be vaccinated as the disease took its toll My own brother didnt take COVID seriously & he died at 31 after it put him in a COMA for a week Banning vaccines for anyone under 65 is a MISTAKE
