We don’t if they were gang members, only that Trump’s DOJ says they were. But they’ve had no trials. They are “accused.” They are “alleged” to be members of a gang that Trump has named. And now they are vanished. This is an actual nightmare and we should be up in arms.

No. Christians feel persecuted because there is a vast media apparatus telling them that they are persecuted. There is no evidence whatsoever of large-scale discrimination against Christians in this country.

The ADL's turn toward fascism is a betrayal twice over: first, because it throws to the wolves legal protestors who stand for positions the ADL doesn't like. And second, because when the time comes for someone to defend Jews like me, there won't be anyone with moral righteousness left to do it.

The seed oil discussion has exasperated nutrition scientists, who say decades of research confirms the health benefits of consuming such oils, especially in place of alternatives such as butter or lard.

Cannot overemphasize that this is not ambiguous, it all originated with a guy who lost his license for falsifying research. It’s like if they announced they were going in search of the Fiji Mermaid.

And to be so very clear, JKR has openly stated that the money she makes from Harry Potter (in all its forms, right now) goes directly to conservative and specifically anti-trans causes. Do not financially engage with Harry Potter. Don't even engage with it for free. It's a Faustian IP, do not.

"No Other Land," the Palestinian-Israeli made film showing the destruction of the occupied West Bank's Masafer Yatta by Israeli soldiers, just won the Oscar for Best Documentary. It can't get a distributor in the US. Which tells you everything about censorship in the US.

The goal is to terrorize federal workers into quitting. That’s it. Constant changes. Canceling work from home then closing offices. Laying off probationary employees. It’s designed to break the government. Then privatize it for profit. It’s not efficiency. It’s collapse. Only peasants will suffer.

Hearing from Community Partners International, which works from Myanmar to Bangladesh, that USAID cuts mean 14,000 people with HIV losing access to lifesaving meds and a total stop in all HIV and TB screening. So many people will die due to these chaotic, sudden, horrifically implemented cuts.

This vote was to start the process of the cuts. It WILL come back for a final vote. There are some chances to slow or potentially stop it. Need constant pressure on GOP Focus on GOP swing seats & key committees. Energy & Commerce is where the Medicaid fight will go down. Ways&Means for tax fight.

Many people have an FAFO take about this kind of thing, but honestly I don’t find it helpful. When I read this I only thought of deeply misguided and misinformed parents who course corrected to save their kids before it was too late and I’m so happy they did.

the line about how trump is just trolling or joking about the “king” thing is belied somewhat by the fact that his administration’s explicit position is he can do whatever he wants and that everyone in every branch of government needs to bow to his demands or be banished

this is one of the funniest things a national politician has ever posted. he live-tweets a tv show during an ongoing constitutional crisis and when someone tells him they find this irritating he’s like “hey listen, this show meant a lot to me when i was a 30-year-old boy”

I think this ties into America's social affluenza that a lot of people don't believe voting is about distributing power and is just social signaling because they truly believe that a government can't fuck everything up

The comparison to Obama accepting "Denali" is absurd. That was accepting the longstanding bipartisan position of Alaska reflecting actual local usage. It wasn't some sudden wokeness thing. The only reason it hadn't been federally changed backed in the 70s was because an Ohio congressman got pissy.

I posted yesterday about a family that’s dealing with a catastrophic bird flu infection in their cats. They’re dealing with enough right now, and don’t need unkind comments. But it does seem that the contaminant was a commercially prepared, batch tested raw food. Please stop feeding raw right now.
