At the start of Pride Month, Pete Hegseth ordered the Navy to strip Harvey Milk’s name from a ship. A man who served with honor — erased to send a message. This is a deliberate insult to LGBTQ Troops and Americans that weakens our force and shreds the values we fight for.

NEW: During his confirmation hearing, Pete Hegseth promised he'd appoint a senior official dedicated to sexual-assault prevention. But surprise, surprise: "Nearly six months into the job, it appears that Hegseth has made no such appointment." www.thebulwark.com/p/pete-hegse...

"Today, almost 90% of Icelandic workers benefit from a reduced working week of 36 hours, compared with 40 hours previously, with no loss of pay... productivity has remained stable, and even increased in some sectors. One of the keys to this success lies in improving the mental health of workers..."

SHAME!

We need to bring constant attention to this fissure. Musk finding The Big Beautiful Lie repugnant will peel support from MAGA’s tech bros.

BREAKING: A federal judge blocked President Trump's executive order prohibiting transgender people incarcerated in federal custody from receiving gender-affirming medical care.

Christopher Rufo and Charles Murray are debating whether to repeal the 1964 Civil Rights Act or just cripple it over on X if you're wondering where we are as a country

We can fight for immigrants AND for public safety. My district is proof: 40% born outside the U.S., and one of the wealthiest, safest in America. Voters want a secure border and safe communities—Democrats must deliver both.

I was a federal prosecutor for 10 years. I worked with ICE agents, and never saw officers hide their faces. Trump's using authoritarian fear tactics to terrorize immigrant communities. They're targeting people trying to enter the country legally, and hiding behind masks because they’re ashamed.

In the midst of the so-called masculinity crisis, two new books enter the heart of the conversation: 'Fatherhood' by Augustine Sedgewick and 'Lost Boys' by James Bloodworth. Read more: https://on.ft.com/4568KwQ

Too many people seem to have bought into the GOP's lies about Gen Z being a hyper-conservative generation. We're not. We were Kamala Harris' best age group. Nearly 80% of us support abortion and LGBTQ+ rights. Generic ballot shows a 2:1 margin for Dems. Don't believe their lies.

We’ve failed George!

This outrageous violation of the work of Congressman Nadler’s District Office and frightful mistreatment of his staff cannot stand. We are demanding a hearing on why this happened and who is responsible. They must be held accountable.

😁👍👍👍👍

There is more than sufficient evidence to open a federal hate crime case under 18 USC 249. This is precisely the type of crime the Shepard-Byrne ACT was passed to permit the feds to prosecute. Important to watch what DOJ does here. www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/...

He eliminated a State Department office that dealt with Russian disinformation campaigns—and is married to a woman with family ties to the Kremlin. It's another clear conflict of interest that's extremely typical within the Trump administration. https://trib.al/vd9Gmm1

"As currently drafted, the GENIUS bill paves another road to financial self-destruction that will undermine the American and global economy." One author predicted the 2008 crash. The other won a Nobel prize. Without fixes, this bill shouldn't pass.

“We have to act now because governments are enthusiastic about digital ID, but if we don’t pin down these basic principles now, it’s going to be a problem later,” EFF’s @zoracon.bsky.social told @statescoop.bsky.social.

Republicans are lying about Medicaid work requirements. The truth is that a vast majority of recipients who can work are already working. Work requirements are just a shady way to fund tax cuts for the wealthy.
