Be transphobic or stupid. I can’t handle both rn. In 2024, Cox signed a law that requires people to use gender-specific bathrooms based on biological sex. Under the Final Rule, this state law may conflict with the federal law and put the state at risk of losing Section 504 federal funding.

They are never gonna find an impartial jury 🤭

It’s been one month. ONE!! Even if he’s lying why would you admit that? “Graham said President Donald Trump’s top immigration czar, Tom Homan, told senators that the administration’s deportation operations are “out of money” and need more funding from Congress to detain and deport immigrants.”

Lee is introducing legislation that would limit the ability of a single district court judge to unilaterally block an order through a nationwide injunction. Instead, Lee proposes such a move must be issued by a three-judge district court with the possibility of “direct appeal” to the Supreme Court.

“The lawsuit—National Urban League v. Trump—was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. It claims that the orders violate the First and Fifth Amendments by targeting diversity, equity, inclusion, accessibility (DEIA) programs, and transgender rights.”

Two of these are not like the other 🤔

THERE WAS A WORSE VERSION! “The bill was amended to specify that the legislation would ban mRNA vaccines “for infectious diseases" and not “gene therapy products used to treat cancers or genetic disorders.”

“To penalize institutions for taking those steps to help students, that is actually very much an echo of the segregation era.”

DOGE-affiliated employee has accessed IRS system with sensitive taxpayer information www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

Facebook groups like Rochester LGBTQ+ Together and Red Wing PRIDE posted on social media about the homicide, condemning attacks on the trans community.

So.Much.Stupid. - 2/3 say the gov spending “too little” on SS and education - 6/10 say spend too little on poor/Medicare - Think gov isn’t spending enough on programs, but are in favor of cuts. - Tend to overestimate that foreign aid makes up 31% of budget - closer to 1% - etc America for the win!

The five-year contract, which did not specify the Tesla model to be “armored,” was listed in the government’s procurement forecast for 2025. … After reports, the online forecast about the contract was edited to remove “Tesla” and simply referred to $400M worth of "armored electric vehicles.”

I’m sorry but is this a question? Look at Afghanistan; he royally fucked them over and still everybody said how great of a deal he got them. He’s going to sell out the Ukrainians if it means he can have a “win” (not that his supporters would see it differently) www.hoover.org/research/how...

This feels like a litmus test. Watch live: House panel convenes hearing on USAID amid DOGE overhaul

“Bryant wasn’t alive during the civil rights movement but says he recognizes the power of the pulpit in times of unrest.” … "If they start losing $29 million a day for 40 days, we will break the back of the system," he said during his Sunday service.”

Ugh. He’s just as bad as trump. What is doge up to right now?

The petition aims to raise $1 trillion to purchase California, claiming it would bring benefits like "Hygge to Hollywood" and "Organic Smorrebrod to every street corner."

“I don’t understand why deleting DEI from government websites is such a big deal.”

“We will only end this devastating war — and establish a durable peace — by coupling allied strength with a realistic assessment of the battlefield.” … Hegseth said “a durable peace for Ukraine must include robust security guarantees to ensure that the war won’t begin again.”

“China recognizes the WTO is not going to put a lot of pressure on the United States because Washington is fully capable of blocking any legal process there, said Jeffrey Schott…“I think the Chinese reaction has been moderate in indicating that they will act tit for tat against U.S. trade.”

ONLY issues I see: school shootings and abuse by authorities. Blanket bans are rarely a good thing.

Trump’s MAGA makeover of the federal government extended to judges on Tues., with the commander in chief telling a crowd of reporters in the Oval Office that the judiciary would be the next branch of government to receive a massive reimagining under his stewardship. newrepublic.com/post/191426/...

This made me so sad. Y’all make so many documentaries about authoritarian governments. It’s a really pathetic move, @pbs.org

This is the doge.gov website. It is dark black. No content. Musk calls this maximal transparency.

NEW: ProPublica has identified nine additional Musk-affiliated staffers. A former staffer at Boring Company now has an official role at DOGE in the Executive Office of the President. A former X employee now works in the General Services Administration.

“In a report Monday, the USAID OIG said that the Trump administration’s reduction of USAID personnel and its sweeping freeze on foreign assistance had made it more difficult to track potential misuse of US taxpayer-funded humanitarian assistance.”

Not parody

A coalition of news organizations said in a court filing that video exhibits from a Jan. 6 riot case had "disappeared" from a government platform that provided access to evidence used in court.

BBC just released damning research on AI assistants' news accuracy. Results: 51% of AI responses had significant issues. 19% introduced errors when citing BBC. 13% misquoted or made up BBC content entirely. 🤐🤐 www.bbc.co.uk/aboutthebbc/... via @ezraeeman.bsky.social

The AP refused to give in to Donald Trump's jingoistic and childish use of the executive powers to try and rename the Gulf of Mexico. But the AP recognized his jurisdiction over Denali to be called Mount McKinley. Today, he BANISHED the AP from the Oval Office for refusing his petty demands.

[insert dystopian novel here] It would ban DEI efforts, prevent faculty from striking, set rules around “controversial beliefs” in classrooms discussions, put scholarships at risk, shorten board of trustees terms, and require students take an American history course.

I'm sad to share that the trans vet that took her life outside the VA last week was apparently Elisa Rae Shupe. She's someone many of us know - she was responsible for the mass email leak that let us know how the ADF, Heritage, etc planned to enact trans eradication we see today. RIP Elisa.

At this point, who cares? You don’t need access to him. He’s constantly screaming his policy through truth social. He then answers any and all questions with lies through SM. This shit could be an email. Why do you do this to yourself, American journalism?

It’s been over a year since they left Tumeremo, a region plagued by violence and gang feuds tied to illegal gold mining in the remote, mineral-rich area. … They spent nine months in Pachuca where Rodriguez found jobs at a tortilla shop, butchery and caretaking while waiting for their CBP One app.
