I don’t understand why the Democratic message isn’t: “Fuck yes we support trans people for the same reasons we protect farmers and parents and truckers and veterans. Because we support ALL Americans.”

This has to be high in the running for most confusing headline ever written:

"Federal law enforcement officers on the scene declined to say what the purpose of the raid was...Some declined to identify which agency they were with. Most wore masks." It's almost like the police are trying to be...secret.

HAWLEY: Let's see the Trump chart. You don't think it's a little bit anomalous that Trump has so many more nationwide injunctions against him? KATE SHAW: A very plausible explanation you have to consider is that he's engaged in much more lawless activity than other presidents

As someone who took the subway every day for, I don't know, 30 years maybe, this honestly pisses me off. Whether it was Philly or NYC or DC, I rode the train every goddamn day. Never a problem. And slandering public trans as the transpo secretary while never having used it yourself is dogshit

Absolutely surreal to have lived through the Napster days and watched as the titans of industry moved hell and high water to lock down any possible chance that someone's song might get swapped online without giving the studios a cut and now those same people are just like "well we gotta steal music"

very cool that for ten years people at the heights of political commentary insisted to the point of rage that the paramount threat to free speech was “censorious” college students

🚨Reports around the country today that some people who showed up for their immigration court hearings were told that ICE prosecutors had dismissed their cases — and then were arrested moments later by ICE officers and taken to detention centers for unknown reasons. Happening in multiple cities.

Sauer keeps saying the amendment was suppose to apply to "former slaves" but the actual text of the 14th amendment is "all persons born or naturalized in the united sates," i thought conservatives were big text guys

RFK Jr starts having a tantrum as Chris Murphy details how he lied during his confirmation hearing about his anti-vax views

Casar: "I've knocked on 1000s of doors and not a single time has someone said, 'Thank God you're here. I want to ask about trans people fencing'..what the hell are we doing? We are here bc MTG thinks if she picks on trans folks, she can avoid having a discussion about allegations of insider trading"

Honestly this is just incredible content.

yeah i am pretty much on the side of primary everyone

Holy crap Indiana cut public health funding to $40 million annually The Governor's public health commission recommended $225 million annually to get us to median 2019 state spending levels Good grief

Walz: If you say you love freedom but you don't believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love is not freedom, it is privilege.

Hey everyone. Working on a new project focused on telling the stories of the people that Trump’s policies are hurting. If that’s you, use the link below to get in touch. share-na2.hsforms.com/27abfgVgkRci...

One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind. An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one." The other said, "Take him anyway." So they did.

Nadav Shtrauchler, a former adviser to Mr. Netanyahu, said that the prime minister had experienced “a complete reversal” under the Trump administration that allowed him “much more room to operate.”
