“Ask your Supreme Court Justice which medical procedure is right for you.”

This is beyond cruel, especially for young folks who are going through it. Cutting off LGBTQ+ youth from specialized suicide prevention help is a death sentence disguised as bureaucracy. Shame on every official who signed off on this. You’re not protecting children, you’re abandoning them.

"Maybe you should have marched better in Dear Leader's birthday parade. Kidding! We would have deported her anyway. We don't care about you people."

First SCOTUS opinion today. Over nuclear waste storage. It's 6-3 with Gorsuch, Thomas, Alito dissenting. Thankfully the Nuclear Regulatory Commission is still allowed to exist. Basically it's Common Sense 1 -- James Ho 0.

22 people killed in #Kyiv by the Russian attack yesterday - Kyiv mayor. 134 more people were injured by Russia. A day of mourning in Kyiv today. Deepest condolences to the families.

“A U.S. citizen!” And now he’s missing. Adrian Martinez tried to defend a man ICE was harassing. Video shows six agents swarming him. He struggles but doesn’t lay hands on them. They take him to the ground & shove him into a CBP vehicle. Abuse of power. Keep recording. Don’t stop. (1 of 2)

New in PN: Judge rules that anti-woke is just racism “'I’ve never seen a record where racial discrimination was so palpable,' Judge Young fumed. 'I’ve sat on this bench now for 40 years. I’ve never seen government racial discrimination like this.' *More of this, please*"

In a lengthy exchange, with ICE Deputy Field Director Bill Joyce, Reps Nadler and Goldman are denied the ability to visit the 10th floor. Joyce says it's not a detention facility it's just a place ppl are housed for several days w/out beds.

ICE just arrested Brad Lander, the NYC Comptroller and one of the leading candidates for Mayor, without grounds. He was conducting routine immigration court work, escorting individuals from hearings. He asked ICE for their warrant - well within his legal rights. This is political intimidation.

As they’re trying to do the right thing

Padilla: I was forced to the ground, first on my knees and then flat on my chest. And as I was handcuffed and marched down a hallway repeatedly asking, why am I being detained? Not once did they tell me why. I pray you never have a moment like this

Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife. While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE. This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.

Armed man arrested at Nashville's 'No Kings' protest had long fascination with Nazis, mass murder www.newschannel5.com/news/newscha...

BREAKING - A hardworking undocumented immigrant showed up to court - did everything right - and was ripped from his family on the spot. No warning. No mercy. Just gone. He paid taxes. He believed in the system. This is how we repay him. It’s disgusting.

Sunday: "The U.S. had nothing to do with the attack on Iran." truthsocial.com/@realDonaldT... Today: "We now have complete and total control of the skies over Iran ... Nobody does it better than the good ol’ USA." truthsocial.com/@realDonaldT... He's not a hawk. He's not a dove. He's just a moron.

We're #soundersfc and #seattlereignfc season ticket holders who show this banner every match for years. At today's #FIFACWC match we were told to take it down. #ProtectTransKids #PrideMonth

Meet MACC’s Hunky Honeydew. Wade is 3 years old & 56lbs. Honeydews are known for their sweetness and goofy outbursts. Wade is a wonderful boy who would melt into your skin if he could. He is gaining confidence in playgroup and making friends. He would love to have a best friend forever though.

Ugh, a lot of USAF mid-air refueling tankers are flying to the Middle East now...

Sen. Mike Lee's unfounded claims on social media about the slaying of a Minnesota lawmaker have angered his U.S. Senate colleague from the state.

Last year, Kroger's CEO raked in $15.4 million — 457x more than its typical employee. Kroger also announced $7.5 billion in stock buybacks. I don't want to hear that Kroger can't afford to treat its employees fairly. Solidarity to these workers.

What a surprise, it’s a guy with a private security firm.

When we reviewed the 1,450+ NIH grants terminated by the Trump administration, we found that: • More than 550 were focused on health disparities or inequities • More than 300 were focused on LGBTQ+ health care Full story 👇

Patriot Front crashed Springfield, MO Pride festival. Driving a Penske truck. U-Haul banned Patriot Front from renting their vehicles. It’s time for people to tell Penske to do the same.

Hey there Scott Walker. I noticed you deleted this after learning that in fact the shooter was from the right. I don’t think it matters either way, violence is violence, so I’m waiting for you to tweet the same thing with corrected facts? Cuz you’re uh, to use your words, “being silent.”

WE HAVE QUESTIONS… This is a kidnapping. No uniform, no badge, civilian car. Who are they? ICE? Sanctioned bounty hunters? Either way, they’re grabbing people without warrants. How often is this happening, and why aren’t more people talking about it? Congress?

Facts matter.

I doubt anyone will see me post, but this needs to be known... if you have a visible following please repost 💙🔥💙 Admitting he wants "his people... aka US " to behave like north Korea for Kim Jong Un.🤬

Trump declares war on cities “We must expand efforts to detain & deport Illegal Aliens in America’s largest Cities, such as LA, Chicago, & NY, where Millions of Illegal Aliens reside. These, & other Cities, are core of the Dem Power Center, where they use Illegal Aliens to expand their Voter Base”

Senator Bill Cassidy cast a pivotal vote to confirm RFK Jr. while vowing to constrain him. Cassidy has clearly failed to do so, writes Nicholas Florko.

"How does it feel to get arrested at 87 years old? He said "I'm just beginning!"

What we learned yesterday. The Times They Are a-Changin'

1. The Islamic Republic of Iran is not updating casualty figures, likely because it wants to appear as dominating Israel, but the organization Human Rights Activists in Iran, which has long kept track of casualty counts in Iran, says at least 406 people have been killed and another 654 injured.

This is an egregiously shameful tweet from a US senator

"...X lawyers have told some reluctant advertisers that the company would add them to the lawsuit if they didn’t spend money on the platform." Incredible. But real. www.wsj.com/business/med... [gift link]

The more renewable energy is invested in, the better and more efficient it becomes. It’s like anything, but #DubaiDick couldn’t give a fuck about ours and his kids future. It’s all about the donors from the fossil fuels industry.

Just want to take a moment to shout out the international reporters helping us get the real story out. When an 80-year-old veteran with a walker is hauled off with his hands zip-tied behind his back, and the media spins it as a “threatening breach” of a police barricade

MSNBC reporter in gas mask in Los Angeles: I think it was Sheriffs deploying CS gas, tear gas, pepper spray, and flash bang grenades in large numbers. Mounted units pushing against protesters.., every single gathering I saw today was 100% peaceful

It's pretty obvious that a lot of US mainstream media either doesn't recognise authoritarianism or doesn't want to call it out. Either way, it's an excellent way to destroy trust in your institution.

"This is what you get when you order your 79th birthday celebration from Temu, but didn't pay the tariffs."

A Democratic Mayor arrested. A Democratic Congresswoman indicted. A Democratic Senator tackled and detained. A Democratic State Representative killed. A Democratic State Representative in critical condition. We can all see where this is going.

As I noted in today’s post, this really was the most egregious thing that happened in LA yesterday and that’s saying an awful lot

From a dear comrade who was kind enough to let me share their video. Veterans stage a sit-in on the US Capitol steps and say, “Military off our streets!” Hell yeah!

Maybe having masked, unidentified men do whatever they want to people wasn’t the great idea it seemed to be at first
