Why does a 38-year old U.S. Attorney in SDNY, who is also a die hard conservative, have more guts and integrity than the entirety of the GOP Senate Conference combined?! Shame on the shameless sycophants and enablers there, who can’t find the spine to stand up to common MAGA bullies.

[Sound of a ticking clock, video of a sick child.] Voiceover: “Every six hours, a child dies of cancer in the United States. President Trump just stopped all funding for children’s cancer research nationwide. We don’t have time for his games.” [Screen fades to black, clock continues to tick.]

Your local library is a treasure, probably a bigger treasure than you think. You don't need audible, they have audiobooks! You don't need online subscriptions - they have them for you! Mine has free tickets to museums & the zoo, social events, sewing machines, DJ equipment, a 3D printer, & MORE.

Something people (including me whoops) have not been mentioning much, is that LA is straight up on it’s 4th day of anti-ICE protests, predominately led by the HS students. As in students are ditching class to walk out to protest ICE in our city.

Once again, way too many people appear to have forgotten that the reason strikes and labour laws exist is not because workers need to be coddled but because they were the less messy alternative to the factory owner getting burnt alive inside his home by the workers

something Republicans do all the time to great effect - they are pulling it now with CA disaster aid - is “I am not supporting <thing I ostensibly support> until you do <unrelated thing I want>” just stop voting for anything at all until he stops doing flagrantly illegal shit, gum up the works

There is an “entire literature” claiming white people are genetically superior to Black folks and I can say unequivocally that assuming good faith and substantively engaging the claims is NOT the best response, because it serves to legitimize their points as something worth debating.
