The New York Times covers trans issues the way Fox News covers ICE protests. Both lead the country to believe there is a conflagration by highlighting a few fires over and over, while ignoring the fact that most people just want to live their lives without the government in their faces.

BREAKING: A federal judge ruled all transgender and intersex people can obtain passports that align with their gender identity while the case against President Trump's executive order proceeds. While this is good news, we will continue fighting until this executive order is blocked permanently.

Trump on Oct 1, 2024, saying that we are on the brink of WWIII and a “global catastrophe” because Iran just launched missiles at Israel, which never would’ve happened if he was president.

If your city is destroyed in a hurricane this year, the United States will be too poor to help you rebuild. But if your city is trying to rebuild a democracy with peaceful protests, we have MILLIONS to deploy men with weapons to destroy you.

We're going about this all wrong. Protestors should be burning Confederate flags. MAGA won't know what to do with that . . .

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

Remember, as @reichlinmelnick.bsky.social just reminded me over at the other place, when Ted Cruz and a bunch of top Republicans got mad about Jade Helm in 2015. All mad conspiracy theories about a military takeover. And now they have nothing to say about the military on the streets of LA.

The 1992 LA riots, the last time the Insurrection Act was invoked, were orders of magnitude greater than what is happening now. There were an unknown number of shootouts. 63 people died. The public's loss of faith in the LAPD was the reason for the riots - so, outside intervention was needed.

The No Kings protest map will help you find a place to exercise your First Amendment rights this weekend. (It's also a pretty good argument against the Electoral College.) www.nokings.org
