Have you had *your* operation today?

Worst newspaper of the moment, or worst newspaper ever?

Guys it’s an ironic seig heil salute, just to infuriate the libs. Guys it’s an ironic swastika armband, just to infuriate the libs. Guys it’s an ironic concentration camp, just to infuriate the libs. Guys it’s an ironic pact with Russian before a full scale invasion, just to own the libs.

A full-on purge of the military leadership, targeting women and people of color. This perfectly captures where we are: An escalating authoritarian takeover of the state, combined with an aggressive program to re-segregate the spheres of influence and power and restore complete white male dominance.

Turning the white supremacy up to 11.

This article provides important information about the deep impacts that will be felt across North Carolina by Elon Musk's new Department of Education funding cuts, but including "DEI cuts" in the title feels really problematic to me... #nced #ncpol

Democrats are fundamentally misunderstanding the moment: We're not asking them to be *legislators* right now. We need them to be *politicians.* There's nothing to be done about the legislative situation. They're right about that. But there's PLENTY to be done as politicians.

I don't think people really get how these employee purges are just going to break the culture of public organizations for a very long time.

The facts of the transgender discrimination cases that the Trump EEOC wants to drop are stomach-turning. They are doing this because they want to empower the abuse of trans people, which they don't think should ever have been illegal in the first place ballsandstrikes.org/scotus/trump...

The Republican campaign against trans people is just radicalizing me further on the topic, and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one. Not just on the matter of rights and policy but also on my personal feelings about gender

New: Trump and those around him aren't acting like they're testing the boundaries of criminal law. They seem to be crossing them whimsically. What do you suppose people like that will do if and when they start to think their impunity might be at risk?

Cis people: it's your DUTY to stand up for trans people, because they're not listening to us. This WILL escalate until being trans in public is an actual crime. ID not matching birth certificate is already legally "fraud" in Florida. They're ratcheting it up to see what the public will tolerate.

"weaker-than-expected" by whom?

This is so, so, so fucked. And the only immediate end is cruelty.

Trans rights are human rights.

The art of the steal.

Feel angry, helpless? Marcy has been suggesting actions, and taking action helps reduce those feelings.

I designed a little T-shirt to raise money for the amazing and courageous @yellowfund.bsky.social -- all sales profits go directly to their work supporting reproductive freedom in the Deep South! If it sells 6 t-shirts, they'll be printed. www.customink.com/fundraising/...

Well, you’ve got to break some eggs…

In non-legislative news, a murder conviction in Taos was just overturned because the prosecutor accused the defendant of witchcraft.
