Wild case out of the Northern District Dallas division. A former cop is alleging a coordinated effort to harass him because he is Gay & Hispanic. The city of Corsicana moved to dismiss the suit because he is "half-hispanic"...... law.justia.com/cases/federa...

I was raised Catholic but thankfully got out of dodge pretty early; nonetheless I am REALLY hoping Pope Francis pulls through, because the world really does not need a conservative demon in the Vatican right now

This is pretty much undeniable fact at this point: a good chunk of white America (particularly local elites) decided that the popular election of a black man represented a rejection of the common social compact, and they've spent the ensuing decade or so in reactionary revolt

Evacuated for a bomb threat from Proud Boys at the Principles First (Never Trumpers) conference in DC. Because the president pardoned and encouraged a bunch of terrorists, and that’s the new reality for any kind of prominent opponents of his.

These are brown shirts, and this is Nazi behavior. We are not in a fight between right and left anymore. This is a fight between Americans and those who would bend the knee to a king. If you care about the soul of this country, we have to stand for each other.

You go to the market and you buy something to eat. It does not even enter your mind that you could be buying something tainted that could kill you. We rely on systems and bureaucracy to keep us safe and we don’t even think about it consciously

An important point to keep in your back pocket is, for the most part, Presidents (legally) do not have much power to improve the economy. Most things a President can do unilaterally that affect the economy mostly affect it negatively. One of the jobs of the President is to not do those things.

Texas Senator Ted Cruz posts a progress report of his recent accomplishments and tags Elon Musk, the unelected CEO of the United States. Our elected officials are reporting to an oligarch now.

I need everyone to be crystal clear that this is a continuation of RFK and the wellness community’s obsession with the elimination of the disabled and the chronically ill. They are disgusted by us, they view illness and disability as weakness, and they believe in using eugenics to disappear us.

It's really incredible to me just how evil our enemies are. They establish concentration camps in Latin America, encourage the spread of AIDS, they build fake "pregnancy crisis" clinics, they make charity illegal, imprison the unhoused, and celebrate subway murderers. They even call empathy a sin.

A lot of comments on this like "why isn't anyone doing anything?" And I feel the same way, but the hardest thing to be is the first person to stand up. You're alone. It's scary. There are more of us than them though and when one stands, it emboldens the rest and soon the one is many.

For the last 2 years, for WIRED, I've been on the trail of the Zizians, gifted young people who set out to save the world and ended up enveloped in violence and death. You may have seen headlines about them. This is their story, based on years of reporting in real time: www.wired.com/story/deliri...

It's strikingly similar to the white supremacy campaigns in Reconstruction North Carolina, as described by Gregory Downs in Declarations of Independence (p.192), where Black employment in government jobs was framed as prima facie evidence of anti-white discrimination.

Y'all, the governor keeps trying to bribe Texas teachers with a pay raise, but raises don't matter if yet more public schools have to close because of his disastrous school funding policies. I got together with some teacher friends and wrote an op ed - here it is.

Regardless of how much coverage it gets, Trump aiming to install a military command that places loyalty to him above loyalty to the constitution needs to be a much bigger story.
