Remembering trans man Albert Cashier for Pride, Union soldier during the civil war, was captured, marched a thousand miles without them figuring out his assigned sex at birth, escaped, and went right back to fighting them. Lived the rest of his life as a man. We have always been here.

American universities are punishing even high-achieving students for speaking out against a genocide. It really demonstrates that the leaders of so many of America's educational institutions believe their jobs are to manufacture compliant little worker bees for capitalism, not critical thinkers.

Pretty wild to make your entire case about how immigrants are lawless freeloaders, but having to go to their workplaces and court hearings to arrest them.

Margaret Brennan totally exposes FDA Commissioner Makary for making it up as he goes and making conflicting recommendations in order to cast doubt on covid vaccines. He's so terrible during this interview that Brennan is left shaking her head as she wraps it up.

No it’s actually fine that the President of the United States has to be tricked into paying attention to his security briefings like a toddler who needs to eat vegetables and believes his predecessor was killed and replaced by clones and robots. You’re just condescending to conservative culture.

At long last, the corrosive fever of Reaganism appears to be breaking. It’s sad that we need to break the entire federal government & large swathes of 🇺🇸 society for that to happen, though.

A Trump intermediary tells CNN’s parent company that they can buy peace with Trump by making a highly flattering documentary about Melania Trump or a TV show about Trump Jr, which would involve paying the Trump family large amounts of money. The move appears to meet the legal standard for extortion.

Just to be clear, the immediate goal here is to juice deport numbers to satisfy Stephen Miller. The secondary goal, though, is to intimidate immigrants into missing court dates so they become de facto "criminals." And then use that status to justify harsher and harsher treatment of them.

Vought is lying. 60-70% of Project 2025's executive action proposals have been initiated or implemented — like gutting education and environmental laws. 30-40% is currently proposed as legislation — gutting healthcare, banking deregulations, voter suppression, and more.

“Trump and MAGA won in 2024 so we need to be more like them” represents the lowest form of reflexive political stupidity. We should learn from defeat. But Dems will win by being true to who we are. Our views are the majority views. Our goal must be to get the majority out to vote.

An analysis from the nonpartisan Partnership for Public Service estimated that DOGE's actions could actually COST the govt $135 bln as a result of lost productivity & changes in the status of fed workers.
