men who dressed like this from 2008 - 2012 had preppy menswear blogs

This is a stunning betrayal by Whitman Walker in DC. You CANNOT jettison the trans community to protect yourself. It’s shameful. I got my name changed at WWH. I have promoted their research. Now they are capitulating to save gay people at trans people’s expense by trying to erase us.

It is mind-boggling to me that people say "but I had to comply with the fascists because otherwise there would be some cost—" NO FUCKING KIDDING. Did you think you'd never have to make a hard choice in Fascist America? That you wouldn't be asked to sacrifice someone and be rewarded for it?? JFC

Trump pardoned the sentence of arguably the single biggest drug trafficker in American history on his second day in office!

THREE MORE CALLS JUST MADE COME ON LET'S DO IT TOGETHER. Took me all of 5 minutes and I got to voice my frustration out loud

NEW YORK (AP) — Dow tumbles 748 points, and S&P 500 has worst drop in 2 months after discouraging reports on the US economy.

Our new FBI director. Congrats America!

Holy crap. At his town hall last night, Rep. Rich McCormick compared *his own constituents* who asked him tough and fair questions to January 6 insurrectionists

This is how the Tea Party started, after all. They just showed up and talked angry shit for a summer & then they got a lot of money from conservative donors, ran candidates for the next Congress and voila, the groundwork laid for takeover of their party. It is far from impossible to do. Hint. Hint.

Happening now: protesters are outside the Fine Arts Building on Michigan Avenue in downtown Chicago this evening. People are in line to see House of Reps Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries for an event tonight promoting his recently released book. Crowd chanting at them, "we don't need a book tour!"

More of this. The fuck are you doing promoting a book when the country is falling apart?

Opinion from @ericthomasphoto.bsky.social: Last week’s letter from the Department of Ed will make Kansas classrooms twitch, then suffer #ksleg

On a Mission From DOGE The SpaceX soul man's sporting the sexiest shades since the Blues Brothers, but will this ketamine-and-cocaine cowboy end up like John Belushi? by Maureen Dowd

coiling yourself in knots to act like you don't recognize a sieg heil gesture because you're worried about the blowback from the "terrorist fist-bump" people is some worm hall of fame shit

REP. RICH McCORMICK: When you talk about presidential power, I remember having the same discussion with Republicans when Biden was elected TOWN HALL CROWD: *Noooooooooooo!*

This is in fact a real picture and it will work nicely in the ads next year about the military families devastated by Elon's illegal firings.

And now we have the answer on why Louis DeJoy abruptly resigned as Postmaster General. Trump intends to take over the Post Office. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

NEW: Trump Shifts the Costs of Climate Change Onto Individuals by @abrahm.bsky.social

AOC is showing what resistance looks like; Schumer, Hochul, and the rest of D leadership not so much. www.publicnotice.co/p/aoc-homan-...

The people who feed America are going hungry. Climate change is escalating a national crisis, leaving farmworkers with empty plates and mounting costs. grist.org/food-and-agr... #Food #Hunger #Farms #Agriculture #Immigration

Over on X, simple tweets by my colleague Greg Bluestein of the Atlanta Journal Constitution have been blocked. They were nothing but video of a town hall held by Rep. Rich McCormick R-GA where he was asked questions about DOGE

I keep trying to tell y'all that ProPublica is out here lapping most other outlets. Them, Wired, and the Texas Observer.

I was at a punk show in 83 where a skinhead jumped up on stage and gave a Nazi salute. The bass player hit him with his bass, knocking him into the crowd and 150 people collectively hauled his ass out of the venue and threw him in the mud. This was the right and only appropriate response.

When even the New York Post has to publish this, you know you fucked up.

An X account, operated by ICE Assistant Chief Counsel James Rodden, and first created in 2012, has posted hateful, xenophobic, and pro-fascist content. The Observer linked Rodden to the account through publicly available documents, other social media activity, and courtroom observation.

🔥 NEW YORK: “The red line has been crossed. They’re not playing by the rules. We have to the gloves off.” Big ovation at an @RepPaulTonko town hall as a teacher encourages him to push back even harder, even get arrested to stop the Trump/Musk rampage. Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DGVuDVe...

elon musk at cpac was so fucking weird you guys I know this reads like a parody but I literally just wrote down what happened www.theverge.com/elon-musk/61...

@extremearturo.bsky.social had a piece this morning on the parallels between DOGE austerity and Milei's program, and it's worth flagging: 1 in 8 Argentinians has fallen into poverty under Milei's policies.

From the Admin that purports to support free speech, this baseless “Operation” is only meant to chill free speech. There is no predication for the FBI to open this investigation. The DOJ IG must monitor this closely — it appears to violate Department guidelines.

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

In December, the Texas Observer and @bellingcat.com identified the operators of four prominent white supremacist accounts on X, including documenting their interactions with Elon Musk. One worked for the Naval Surface Warfare Center in Indian Head, Maryland.

The best Alzheimer's research in the world was NIH funded, and after a difficult decade, we were finally starting to see really promising leads for new therapeutics. This is like taking away your kid's bike the day the training wheels come off just after an Olympic coach said they have potential

Arizona lawmakers have re-filed a bill to limit the use of "felony murder"—a technique that allows prosecutors to charge people with murder even if they haven’t killed anyone. Multiple people have been imprisoned for killings committed by police. theappeal.org/arizona-bill...

Republicans back young man with Trump surname even though he's never said a word about *anything* in public. So don't tell me this isn't just a mindless cult blindly associated with the name Trump.

So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.

New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

Elon’s busy schedule today is claiming astronauts were left in the ISS for political reasons, getting corrected by an ISS astronaut, throwing a fit where he calls the astronaut a slur, then complaining that we should deorbit the ISS

I will vote for the first candidate who tells me they're going to make the biggest government possible. Reacher-sized agencies. Braun Strowman-level social benefits. Government so big it starts belching out National Parks and free healthcare. Chungus State.

Wow. DOGE is far more expensive than the USDS that it pretends to be. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

I have been so excited since I found out this would be announced today! RIP any ability for me to concentrate: www.apple.com/tv-pr/news/2...

🚨 My new book, The Folly of Realism, comes out in less than one week 🚨 Take a look at the video trailer!
