So I get the logic and the fear here, but ICE *is* raiding work sites in red states, at least in Texas. Construction sites all over the place in the last few weeks left abandoned. And not just in the blue cities, but in rural and exurban areas that vote very very red.

63% of American adults had unfavorable views of Martin Luther King Jr in August 1966, per Gallup surveys 46% of Mississippi GOP voters said interracial marriage should be illegal in a 2011 PPP poll to push w/e is popular instead of trying to popularize justice is to admit you lack moral leadership

It really really fucking js 🥵

You have have one of these things or the other, but not both. They cannot be true at the same time.

Holy crap. Here are 91 pages of letters that 14 House Democrats just sent to the nine law firms that have paid off Trump to not attack them. Lots of Qs aimed at sorting out if they violated federal bribery/anti-fraud/racketeering laws. min.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

A few notes - Trans folx in the US pretty much never have gender-affirming surgery until they're over 18 at least. FGM is a very specific thing, and not anywhere close to procedures used in trans medicine. NY Post, Faux News, etc, are NOT valid sources for serious writing.

THE CIVIL RIGHTS ACT IS THE LAW OF THE LAND AND A SUPERSTATUTE AND THE PRESIDENT CANNOT UNDO IT. sincerely, a constitutional law professor who also teaches employment discrimination

This is your regular reminder that executive orders are not royal decrees. Because America has no king.

Pretty sure they view this as one of the "problems" with modern society (in their opinion) solving itself. Then they don't have to worry about the political costs of actually targeting said group. Extend that logic to every other group of "problematic" citizens and their actions make sense, no?

Again, they aren't pro-life, they're pro-birth. Evidence part fifty bazillion that women are only good for their uteruses in this regime 🤮🤬

Greenfield, Massachusetts passes resolution declaring the city a sanctuary for transgender and gender diverse people #NOH8

The difference between Christianity and Christian Nationalism is a Pope who advocated for our most marginalized and a woman who considers him evil for doing so.

A thought - maybe if you want A, don't do B? I, at least, am a woman who is very opposed to having children in a country trying to become less safe than the one I grew up it, just sayin' 🤷‍♀️

So COVID vaccine records/mandates violate privacy rights but this is totally fine?? I see violations of HIPAA, FERPA, the 14th Amendment, possibly some other stuff as well. This is insanity.

THIS!!

In 2015 The Post sent me to Buenos Aires to better understand Francis's origins amid charges he was some sort of secret Marxist. I found a political worldview shaped by more by Peronism - Argentina's homegrown ideology - and painful scars the dictatorship www.washingtonpost.com/world/you-ca...
