Apparently RFK is trying to walk back his bullshit comments by saying he doesn't mean autistics like me are bad and awful and need to be irradicated; no, he just wants to get rid of the "low functioning" autistics and let me just say FUCK THAT I'm not more worthy of existing than autistics who 1/

Breast cancer diagnoses rose by over 300% between 1973 and 1992. Was there a breast cancer epidemic?! NO. Mammograms were implemented for screening in 1976. PREVALENCE is a function of being able to correctly diagnose something. This is also about autism.

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

this is such good news. i think it is also an opportunity for democrats to state forthrightly that when they win power again everyone responsible for this crime will be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law and will face the american people to answer for their lawlessness

This is for white people: So it sounds like the next Hands Off protests will be April 19th. Great! That gives us 2 weeks to add to their effectiveness. 1. Call your state, district, & local reps & ask if they’ll be there too; 2. Ask if they will have voter registration stations; 1/

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die. Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

"Don't stan any politician" is only controversial if your organizing is a stand in for a kind of identity affirming consumption that tells people around you that you're the right sort. Cause are you organizing for tangible goals, or for elevating an idol?

Notice how it's disproportionately the people who sew who understand that it's logistically well nigh impossible to on-shore manufacturing to the degree we'd need? And yet garment construction is undervalued as a skill with serious knowledge required because it's woman-coded.

"Obama’s comments also offer Democrats a way out of the either-prices-or-democracy cul-de-sac that has flummoxed the party. What they underscore is this: Trump’s destruction of the rule of law and his imminent wreckage of the economy are actually the same story."

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

A new court filing this evening reveals the MAGA regime deported a Maryland father to a notorious Salvadoran prison and then blamed it on being an administrative error. This was no error or mistake, it was yet another act of cruelty as well as a human rights violation.

Tomorrow, we expect Trump is going to sign an Executive Order claiming to dissolve the U.S. Department of Education. Reminder: Trump does not have the legal authority to destroy a cabinet department; reporting on the EO as if he does have that power is both inaccurate and unethical.

People need to be crystal clear about something: The requirement that the government ANSWER to a court on the legal basis for detaining someone is literally the core liberty right (habeas corpus). If the government says they don’t have to do that bc “national security,” YOU can be disappeared.
