BREAKING - This week, Ga Gov. Brian Kemp signed sports ban "Riley Gaines Act," into law. I spoke with politicians and activists about the corruption and internal conflict that spawned such bills, and how activists took many down. Ty @ryan.staticnoi.se for editing thefreeradical.org/ga-gov-signs...

so, so sad. the Daily Dot broke the No Fly List story (@crimew.gay), multiple stories i was involved with (incl. ones with @ddosecrets.com releases), and so on. many of those currently doing the best reporting out of the tech–politics beat had a stint at the Dot. :(

unbelievably in-depth interview about the Twin Cities, activism in the US, and how you can make an impact. fantastic @thefreeradical.org (and edit by me :P)

ICYMI: on Twitter, an OSINTer ('Vleckie') is being blamed for a US airstrike in Yemen that killed 8 civilians. in a thread, she'd marked a group of houses as an underground bunker — from satellite imagery alone. those houses (not a bunker) were subject to a US airstrike. 8 innocent people dead.

the hasan piker profiles will continue until morale improves

my good friend Mira Lazine launched her independent publication today, The Free Radical, and this is the PHENOMENAL first piece out of it. it tells the uncovered and horrifying story of the Trump administration housing a transfem immigrant with men — in Guantanamo Bay. give it a read!! <3

BREAKING - A new legal declaration alleges that a transfeminine immigrant was unlawfully held in Guantanamo Bay - with men - for the crime of trying to enter this country for her safety. Credit to @ryan.staticnoi.se for editing this piece More at Free Radical - thefreeradical.org/it-was-dehum...

i'd like to formally announce the launch of my independent newsletter on radical movements and queer news - Free Radical. i've written an introduction post explaining my rationale for this, and outlining what you can expect. a story is coming later today. thefreeradical.org/announcement...

A reminder when Bondi/Patel/Gabbard start trying to get reporters' emails and texts, or forcing them to take the stand: it didn't have to be this way. Democratic leaders in the Senate handed them this power with inaction. theintercept.com/2025/04/29/p...

ah, new EOs dropped! let's see, we've got a textbook Title VI violation, a threat that "all necessary [...] enforcement measures" will be used against sanctuary cities and their governments, and a mechanism to provide "indemnification" to cops for their crimes. yippeeee

just a reminder that jd vance is beloved by proud boys. here's him pictured with them. (i broke the story here - archive.ph/Tc7D9)

an aptly plaintive headline in @chrisgeidner.bsky.social's always-fantastic Law Dork tonight

please know about me that if the trolley problem consisted of five em dashes and you that i would pull the lever to run you over

🚨NEW investigation from me and @jeremykohler.bsky.social We dug into the past of Ed Martin, Trump's top prosecutor in D.C. What we found is remarkable. Best of all: We got the receipts. Pls read and share. www.propublica.org/article/ed-m...

NEW: The White House promoted what it believed was newly-appointed SEC chairman Paul S. Atkins' account on X after he was sworn in. But @PaulSAtkins is a parody account, & it seemingly used the promotion to solicit $5,000 in cryptocurrency donations. www.dailydot.com/debug/paul-a...

nooo fucking way. @mikaelthalen.bsky.social reports that it is not his official account but a crypto-scamming parody account! www.dailydot.com/debug/paul-a... thanks to mikael for keeping me updated with this story. unbelievable

it took two hours and 15 minutes for Paul S. Atkins, chair of the SEC, to get hacked on twitter

an injustice

from the Columbia SIPA Palestine Working Group on Instragram, demands are as follows: 1. call for the "free[ing]" of Mahmoud Khalil and Mohsen Mahdawi 2. financial transparency ("disclose") 3. establish a "sanctuary campus" 4. "open the gates"

shit keeps coming out reaffirming that i had this admin's rank transmisogyny clocked dead to rights from their early executive orders and that we'd be a lot better off if the national lgbtq orgs stopped covering it up instead of firing me about it

Normal reaction to being associated with JD Vance

New from 404 Media: ICE is planning a central database of health, labor, and housing agency data to find targets for deportation. The tool, called ATrac or Alien Tracker, already has data from Social Security Administration. Is used to send targets to teams in field www.404media.co/ice-plans-ce...

i've covered soyjak.party ("the sharty") in the past and talked to their members. within their scenes, active forum members are known for being rather ruthless and lying to the press. be safe, please.

NEW: An ex-member of SiegedSec, also known as the 'gay furry hackers,' says she contacted police after falling out with the group's former leader. Other former members I spoke with believe she went even further and contacted the FBI. Here's the story: www.dailydot.com/debug/furry-...

BREAKING - "You haven't said the word trans yet" - Video depicts protester calling out Rep. Laura Friedman for silence and complicity on anti-trans violence youtu.be/v-RwrmYjtQ0

The answer, my friends, is no. www.reuters.com/world/us/cyb...
