National accounts keep saying the shooter is a registered Republican. Unless he’s registered in some other state, this is inaccurate. MN doesn’t have party voter registration.

Gov. TIm Walz did not know Vance Boelter, a source in his office said. The workforce board Boelter served on has about 60 members, many of whom are not politically connected or would have meaningful access to the governor or interactions with him.

political press is doing a real disservice by basically not reporting the nuances of public opinion on deportations, and creating the appearance that most americans support the stephen miller-style gestapo tactics

If an obscure scientist in a tiny foreign land likes a No Kings post and flies to the U.S. 8 months later for a professional conference, they will be denied entry and detained. But if you assassinate a Democratic lawmaker in the Midwest, you can apparently disappear without a trace.

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.

Remembering Dr. Alan Hart for Pride, trans man from the early 1900s. He revolutionized the detection of tuberculosis, saved thousands of lives, and died using his name, as the man he always was meant to be. We have always been here.

The spaces shown to the reporters at state offices (the desks that aren’t anyone’s, because they’re shared now) are bleak. Also, this still makes no sense and the state doesn’t pay enough to compensate for the money lost from workers with the changes. Gift link.

Republican support for gay marriage has fallen to 41%. For those in the LGBTQ+ community who do not believe they are coming after gay marriage next after their draconian anti-trans restrictions, you're in for a surprise - we are all in this together.

I want every gay person that doesn't realize that transgender rights and gay rights are interconnected to read this story. A far-right judge just erased your rights against harassment in the workplace along with ours. We are in this together and there's only one way out.

Absolutely vile. Derek Chauvin murdered George Floyd in a modern day lynching— it was chilling and intentional.

Marjorie, I know the truth confuses you and facts ain’t your strong suit—so let me break it down real slow: George Floyd didn’t die from drugs. He died because Derek Chauvin knelt on his neck for 9 minutes. That’s called murder.

It is amazing to me that Dems are pressured to water down their messaging in order to avoid alienating 'centrists,' but Republicans can round up and deport sobbing children without fear of alienating 'centrists.' Says a lot about what we mean when we say 'centrists'

I mean it couldn’t fucking matter less whether Trump does something to benefit the Qataris, thought he already has and certainly will again. What matters is that the actual Constitution — not some obscure law — flatly explains that he cannot accept a nice fountain pen much less a fucking airplane.

I just really need everybody to understand that everything that’s happening in and to the global economy now (and all the businesses and people in it) is the entirely predictable result of the intentional decisions of one guy who doesn’t understand how the global economy works.

Let’s be clear about what’s happening here: The President is using the power of his office to enrich himself and his family, offering “meme coins” and other shady crypto ventures to rake in billions in exchange for political favors. But kids shouldn’t have more than five pencils? Seriously?

Give me a fucking break. I’m a 52 year old gay man. I was a teenager in the late 1980s when the entire world described us as immoral, disgusting, disease carriers. People were arrested for “gross indecency” for kissing in public. Homophobic attacks were routine and somehow I’m not a fucking Nazi.
