A top covid vaccine adviser at the CDC has resigned, citing concerns that she could no longer help vulnerable people after federal health officials rescinded long-standing recommendations to immunize children and pregnant women. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

What do you get for the richest nazi in the world who has everything? A seat in the Dock at Nuremberg 2.0

I know everyone is loving the Musk schadenfreude but we have to stay on the alert for the possibility that Musk is going to turn his sights to those centrist dem conventions going on and further entrench transphobia and anti-immigrant sentiment. And they would easily work with him.

1. A Mexican revolution trans man... a trans woman who transitioned as a kid in the 1800s... a trans woman fencer and spy turned double agent... a trans civil war soldier who stole his captor's weapon... These are the trans people you never learn in school. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Transphobia is an overall cultural atmosphere with norms of intrusive violation, complete disregard for individual protections and autonomy, and non-promotion of welfare

Chris Murphy: "We can't be preparing for the 2026 election. It might not come. All of our focus right now has to be on protecting the democracy, about stopping the corruption."

🏳️‍🌈 PRIDE is coming to Tesla Takedowns! June 7th is Pride Day at #TeslaTakedown rally in Rockville MD and at other Tesla locations in the DMV. RSVP: tinyurl.com/3pzftaxb Wear your Pride gear and wave your Pride flag for LGBTQ rights at this powerful, joyful protest against Trump/MAGA regime + Musk.

Gov. Tim Walz is doubling down on trans rights — and criticizing members of his party who are retreating — at a time when the issue has become a political lightning rod nationally and back home in Minnesota.

Another demonstration of the fact that there is no point in bending to Trump, not just morally, but strategically. Columbia gave in & he just hits them harder... MAGA's goal is to destroy the universities (& newspapers & law firms etc etc etc) and the only logical approach is to unite and fight back

5 June 1933 | Dutch Jewish girl, Hilde Münz, was born in Heerlen. She was deported to #Auschwitz from Westerbork in August 1942. She was murdered in a gas chamber after arrival selection.

The NYPD and ICE mistakenly arrested a Chilean woman who is a permanent resident in New York City and left her poor frightened 12 year old daughter on the street alone. She was released approximately six hours later. This is the fearful state of America.

Sickening. Do these people believe they're the good guys?

We don’t celebrate Pride for the rainbows or parades, we do it because *right now* someone out there believes they don’t deserve love, just because of who they are or who they love.   That’s why we celebrate Pride—because we want to build a world where no one feels that way.

DeLauro uses her opening statement to tear Russ Vought a new one

in a perfect world we would not need a pride month because no one would have to live in fear for expressing their sexuality but in the real world many people are abused or murdered for their sexuality or gender which is why we have a pride month

The first batch of Trump judicial nominees are now under oath. Will they stand by the law? Or serve as a rubber stamp for unlawful policies?

Reminder that silicon valley nazis have been plotting openly - on the record- about overthrowing the American government for decades, but they're not in guantanamo because they're rich, white men.

The woman who shouted "people will die" at Joni Ernst, India May, is a nurse and a librarian who first got involved in politics by going to a town hall about bills aiming to defund libraries. Now she's running for state house. eu.desmoinesregister.com/story/news/p...

Since returning to the Oval Office, President Trump and his allies have attacked any judge who does not rubber stamp his MAGA policies. I’m about to question the first batch of his judicial nominees under oath.

I hate when news organizations use phrases like, "his complicated history when it comes to minorities," instead of just saying, "his lifetime of being a belligerently bigoted bunghole."

The fact that this is barely an exaggeration...

Pam Bondi has already blatantly politicized the judicial confirmation process. Every Republican and Democratic President for more than 70 years cooperated with the American Bar Association to conduct nonpartisan evaluations.

Because these Christians already offloaded their critical thinking skills to a sweaty guy in a suit waving a Bible around and raging about the queers every Sunday.

You don’t need a think tank to figure this out. Every single person in the world wants to be safe and comfortably afford housing, groceries, and healthcare. It’s really that simple.

Republicans have complained for years that the American Bar Association is “biased.” But the ABA uses objective metrics that have nothing to do with ideology. The Trump Administration is clearly just trying to cover for unqualified and extreme nominees.

Perfect.

Watch Felon47 upend the ‘Matthew Shepard Act’ next

Brave US citizens confronted heavily armed ICE storm troopers in Minneapolis, the Trump forces disguised themselves as other agencies as they conducted an ethnic cleansing raid in a local neighbourhood

just a reminder that the dem who ran this campaign unseated a 3x gop incumbent who had never won by less than double digits

Without reliable hurricane forecasting, two things happen. People die in their homes because they didn't know to leave, and people die on jammed highways because they leave unnecessarily.

During the 2015 & 2018 strikes, my university went on record saying adjunct faculty just aren't as good or as serious as tenured faculty. then after the strike still hired us to teach over half the classes. What is it -- we're awful and don't deserve job security or we're an amazing teaching team?

Oh, look, it's another right-wing extremist leader grifting off public money...no one could have anticipated THIS!

Seems like every republican about everything. "Does it help MEEEEE?" if the answer is yes, they are in favor. If the answer is no, they are against.

Because silicon valley doesn't give a shit about consent. just buy some new politicians is their solution to everything.

Happy Pride to all the Prodigal children.

Imagine if this was the first thing Democrats had done in 2021 after Biden was sworn in.

So… Abrego Garcia… still down there huh?

“I struggle for adjectives to adequately describe the horror that this administration has visited on the world,” said a former State Department official. “It keeps me up at night.”

Ya think?
