The NYT was cited in the Supreme Court ruling used to strip trans people of healthcare. This is EXACTLY WHY the “just asking questions” crowd of centrist edgelord journalists are dangerous. They launder transphobia through faux neutral “debate” and act like it’s intellectual curiosity

In a bold move, Trump applies the term "unconditional surrender" without knowing what it means and without having any direct involvement in the war in question.

Thank you to @hcrichardson.bsky.social for pointing out that we make money on our public lands every single year. Why would we sell them when they are a reliable form of income? www.blm.gov/sites/defaul...

I cannot reiterate enough that Trump has never been antiwar. He is anti-existing alliances! He wants to form a new axis with other despots. That people have argued being anti-NATO is some sort of dovish stance is either lunacy or grotesque lying.

These older women turning out for "No Kings" rallies have been the misogyny piñatas of the LeftBro edgelords for the best part of a decade. The Bros coined the term "wine moms" to ridicule & delegitimize women as political actors; it's not a joke, but a political project closely aligned with MAGA.

Apparently the NYT is about to publish a story that suggests Planned Parenthood might stop providing abortions in order to preserve federal funding. President Alexis McGill Johnson says that’s never going to happen and “any claims to the contrary are an outright lie.”

The anti-abortion movement and what it has wrought is more horrifying than any horror movie. It is a rejection of the dignity of life and a mockery of human wellbeing

Bibi starts a war with Iran and so Trump is making it our war? All of these people who got mad at Biden for his restraint and now our kids are preparing to serve as Israel’s emergency backup. What happened to ‘no new wars’ or ‘Harris will have us fighting Iran?’ It won’t be their kids fighting.

A failure of journalism. Neither the push nor the NBC News article notes that THIS IS ILLEGAL. The law allows a one-time delay. That’s it! www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

there's been an intense campaign to dehumanize trans people from the right, a campaign in lock step with rolling back ALL CIVIL RIGHTS. yet it is the marginalized ppl asking for rights that are critiqued and centered; not the cruel bigoted denial of those rights (just to exist!) by those in power.

The Senate reconciliation bill retains the trans healthcare Medicaid/CHIP ban. Call your Senators, we still have a good shot at killing this provision. Hundreds of thousands of people rely on this care.

BREAKING: A federal judge in Massachusetts (the Reagan-appointed William Young) has declared the Trump administration's cuts to NIH grants — ostensibly over Trump's EOs on gender ideology and DEI — are "illegal" and "void." He's ordering many grants restored.

Just occurred to me, because I spend too much time thinking about AJLT, a show I hate: Aidan is totally withholding the kid’s ADHD meds, right? He’s telling his ex that he can’t fill the scrip because of the shortage. If any fictional character was ever an RFKJr disciple, it’s this asshole.

A new poll by @nbcnews.com shows that 80% of Americans support vaccines for disease prevention, with only 7% strongly opposing. The strength of public support for vaccines is clear, yet those like RFK Jr. who seek to undermine vaccines have the mic. We need to take it back.

Today's newsletter is one of the few places where you'll read about Clayton Kershaw defacing his Pride Day cap with a bible verse widely used by homophobes to discredit the LGBTQ+ community. Imagine if it was someone doing that to an American flag cap logo. www.cupofcoffeenews.com/cup-of-coffe...

All the 3.5% magic bullet nonsense is the ‘Boom! Mueller Time!’ of this moment and it's doing my head in. Protests work, there's many disparate reasons why and it’s not always a numbers game. Just take some action.

There a reason the protests are being covered differently from the Tea Party The Tea Party was a front for the wealth class that owns the media and were used to demonize necessary reform These protests were democratic and populist, which the wealth class and its media opposes Hope that helps

Conservative protests are always treated as an organic cry of anger that manifests the distress of the unjustly ignored American heartland; protests from the center-left are always written off as noise from inside the bubble.

10 years of obsession about what Trump supporters think & care about has warped our understanding of their size & popularity: Trump is historically unpopular, pro-democracy supporters far outnumber the object of Corporate Media’s love. Time to hear more from majority of US.

About 1.5% of the U.S. population protested today. (Closer to 1.9% if you only count the adult population.)
