~1M abortions a year in the US. About 1% of them are late in the pregnancy D&Es. That’s about 26/day. Some of these are emergencies. Every day women will risk dying for no reason

This guy is terrible, he did a terrible thing, I'm Jewish and there's no question in my mind that it was a hate crime. ICE is not the right agency to be involved and normalizing the use of ICE for this type of law enforcement task is terrifying. ICE is terrible and we should get rid of it.

Oh wow...he went "Dracarys" all over Higher Ed and then got left with nothing. I'm sure his podcast isn't far off now.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

Hahahahahahahahahahaha!

Trump administration announces they will be executing women for being pregnant

A million years ago, this was a national scandal. Today, it is just an every day occurrence that we all tacitly accept.

The fact of the matter is that we would not accept any of these incidents if it was done by U.S. forces. When blackwater killed Iraqi civilians it was a national outrage. This occurs weekly in Gaza and the West Bank and it’s met with indifference to what our military aid is supporting.

Poetic

Jonathan Joss (Comanche, White Mountain Apache) did not simply die from a gunshot. He was murdered in a homophobic, racist hate crime by his former neighbors. He died saving his partners life. Honor his legacy-- both queerness and Indigeneity are inextricable to why he was targeted.

If you can't see the connection between these two things, I don't know what to tell you.

After three months in Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody, a Filipino green-card holder who had been arrested at Seattle-Tacoma Airport has finally gone home.

"No one voted to deport moms" — yes they did. This is why Critical Race Theory needs to be taught to everyone. It was common for white people to have their "favorite" Black individuals they worked with or employed, while still supporting the Jim Crow system that oppressed Black people as a whole.

The intellectual crime of being against massacring starving people when they crowd aid trucks, of bombing hospitals, of targeting journalists and doctors for death, killing tens of thousands of children--all in the vain hope of avoiding repercussions from the criminals behind these atrocities.

Not trying to dunk. But I was at the RNC and they were waving signs that said "mass deportations now." Trump then later categorically accused Haitian immigrants of eating pets. He claimed immigrants poison our blood. He campaigned on ethnic cleansing. People can lie to themselves, but he did.

Chicago has a new program that lets police file felony gun charges without getting a prosecutor’s approval. Two of the police officers who have overseen many cases under this program have 59 misconduct complaints between them. boltsmag.org/cook-co...

This is basically the KKK saying the Nazis aren’t respecting their anti-Jewish principles

Hoy estuve en el museo de la navegación en Sevilla. Desde la perspectiva museográfica, es una maravilla. Imagina interesantes formas de interactuar con el visitante, es precioso, y ojalá hubiera más museos como este en estos aspectos. Las historias que cuenta, eso es otra historia

The Trump admin's mockery of the courts goes beyond defiance www.publicnotice.co/p/john-sauer...

Sarah Huckabee Sanders was once politely asked to leave a restaurant and it generated 100x as much handwringing from the media as this will

The Trump administration is working with private companies like Palantir to create detailed reports on every American, which could help them weaponize our personal information in their quest to deport immigrants and punish critics. This is a huge threat to our constitutional rights.

Increasingly clear that these ICE arrest operations are gearing up not because of the actual immigrants, who in all but a tiny handful of cases go along quietly, but because they’re getting so much pushback from onlookers. It’s a vicious cycle; the more they do this, the worst the pushback gets.

No no no! These university leaders don’t get it. If you negotiate one on one you don’t buy peace; you just expose the whole sector and yourselves to more shakedowns. See law firms. The only response is to unite in collective action and fight the Admin’s illegality. www.cnn.com/2025/05/31/p...

GOP Sen. Joni Ernst responds to voters saying that cutting Medicaid will kill them: “Well, we all are going to die.”

Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/o...

I’m not a religious man but I genuinely hope all of these agents die in prison like Nazi camp officers when all this is over

When Chicago police recruit Alexus Byrd-Maxey reported being sexually assaulted by her peer, another recruit said she was “trying to victimize herself.” Her teacher never filed a sexual misconduct complaint. Weeks later, Byrd-Maxey was the one fired. W/ @invisible.institute‬

As the FBI assigns hundreds of additional agents to focus on arresting people for deportation, agents "have been told by supervisors not to document moving resources away from high-priority cases toward immigration-related work." www.cnn.com/2025/05/29/p...

This guy stole $10 million from the employees of his nursing home to buy himself a luxury yacht and Cartier watches. He PLED GUILTY. And because his Mom gave Trump $1 million, he just got a pardon. And this story barely makes the news today. WTF. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/27/u...

The US Administration has indefinitely blocked *all* student visa applicants from getting a visa interview. Worldwide, unconditional, no end date. All. International students are crucial to the US university system, American innovation, and future US prosperity.

It's quite obvious RFK.Jr has been spared the trauma of seeing pregnant people intubated in the icu with severe covid infection fighting for the lives. Pregnancy is a risk factor for severe covid. Not recommending vaccines in pregnancy is reckless and unscientific. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...
